Another wonderful time staying with Pambos and Eleni at the Mariella Hotel in Polis. We were a little earlier this year and delighted to find that business had picked up so well after the post-Covid lull, and it was wonderful to meet up with so many regulars who had been even more often than us (this was only our seventh time!) and to meet first-timers enjoying themselves. It was an especially hot time, the last days of September, so the sun-beds and pools were busy during the day and we were once again delighted that the Mariella attracts so many nice people who know how to behave, keeping the bar area busy of an evening without any needless music to disturb everyone else (moms with children seemed especially appreciative of this). We were ‘at home’ in the B block, and, as always, enjoyed having rapid hot water in the shower, and a regular supply of filtered drinking water in the kitchenette—a luxury not found in most four and five star hotels that want to make a profit selling you bottled water! Given how hot it was, it was great to have clean sheets and pillow-cases every other day along with fresh bath- and hand-towels. We tend to be late risers, so sometimes got in the way of the cleaners who wanted to sweep and mop the floors every morning but they kindly laughed off our lazy habits. Polis is one of the last low-key places that we know of for a relaxing break near a beach (our favorite will always be the ‘campsite’ which is less hectic that the Latzi area) and with so many good places to eat in the evening when the sun goes down. There are more expensive places to stay, but the Mariella remains the best deal in town. Our only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer, but will be back as soon as we can.
