Mandola Rosa at Riviera Olympia, A Grecotel Resort to Live

We stayed in a villa delos which was absolutely amazing. Our arrival was amazing from the help that we received and the quality of the accommodation. Throughout our stay every member of staff has gone out of their way to make our stay special. A big shout out to the golf buggy driver who greeted us who kindly gave us useful information throughout the holiday and was a joy to talk to. The food was outstandingly good. There is a great variety of pools and food choices throughout the three hotels. We would 100% recommend this holiday and hope that we will be able to return!

Exceptional service, professional staff and attention to detail. Special reference to the Elixir Spa located in the complex. The Spa crew really knows how to provide value adding services to the guests, whilst the Spa facilities are superb and can only be compared to top destination Health clubs. Special kudos to the Spa’s team for their overall service and hospitality.

Mandola Rosa is truly a gem. The location is unbeatable, with one of the best sandy beaches in Greece. The staff are exceptionally polite and professional – hospitality at a level you rarely find anywhere. The villas are spacious, bright, spotless, and very comfortable, while the restaurants serve excellent food. It’s one of the few places where everything comes together – location, service, and comfort. That’s why we keep coming back

We spent an unforgettable week at Grecotel Mandola Rosa this August, and it was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by peace, beauty, and five-star service. The resort is absolutely stunning – elegant, quiet, and perfectly situated along a gorgeous sandy beach. Every detail is taken care of, from the beautifully landscaped gardens to the luxurious rooms that offer spectacular sea views.

We stayed at the Mandola Rosa last month with our family. On one hand, the location is absolutely idyllic — the views, the beach, and the setting are genuinely stunning. The hotel sits within a wider complex of the Grecotel Riviera resort and the complex itself is tired and in need of real investment, and service can be hit-and-miss. Our arrival set the tone: after a long journey, my partner kept mentioning we’d like a drink, but instead of offering any sort of welcome refreshment, we were simply handed a room service menu once we reached our room. Not exactly the warm reception we were hoping for. The property shows clear signs of wear — from stained furnishings to rusty beach tables (one of which actually damaged my handbag). I complained and was compensated as the bag was completely ruined, however the rusty beach tables remained no-one thought to replace them or attempt to clean them. The aqua park was a disappointment, with pieces of the pool floor coming off and floating around. Other pools within the resort are stained with lots of broken tiles and generally a feeling of being worn and unloved. Beach service for drinks was virtually non-existent. The breakfast at Mandola Rosa was excellent, and we also ate at Cap Voyage once which was excellent, but very rich. Too heavy to eat there every night. The Souvlaki concept was promising, but sadly the food fell short. The buffet at La Riviera was very good quality, and as we have young children, we found ourselves dining there most evenings. Overall, Mandola Rosa could be truly exceptional with some refurbishment and more consistent service. For now, it’s a beautiful setting that doesn’t quite live up to its full potential.

The staff are very friendly and greet us every time. They provided a baby bath, baby steamer, and baby cot, which is convenient when traveling with an infant. The housekeepers come to clean every day, including changing duvet covers, mopping the floor, and cleaning the toilet. The view from the room is breathtaking! I feel like I’m living in a dream. The hotel breakfast buffet was good—fresh and yummy. However, the food from room service is often cold and not very good, but that’s okay. It’s open until 11:00 pm, just in case of a food emergency.
