Paradise Resort

We booked at this hotel for 5 nights with another couple. We had an excellent holiday stay in Finikounta. I wasn't so sure would be so nice when we arrived. I thought we were far from restaurants and night live but I guess I was wrong. 400 meters away at the village of Finikounta we enjoy nice fish, fresh homemade greek plates as well as gyro plates. Hotel breakfast was really awesome. Everything was there at the buffet. From eggs to homage sweets spanokopitta, tyropitta, cakes, fruits, biscuits etc. Rooms were really comfy and big extra sofa in the room. Nice balcony overlooking the garden and pool. Reception girls were really polite and advisable giving us hints such as where to dine which beach to go. Last evening we visited the village near by called Kamaria where we enjoyed homemade cooked Greek plates. The beach black mountain just the next right from the hotel was on perfect. Organized beach a small snack bar where you could enjoy drinks and some snacks. I really recomment the area to couples and families who are looking for quiet and relaxing holidays.

YOU NEED a CAR Still in 2024 JET2 are selling this as Bed and Breakfast. Evening Meal is NOT available There are NO Bars Tavernas or Food Outlets Near this Hotel and No Taxi to take you to Finikounda The Hotel is Fine, a short walk from a beautiful beach, breakfast is OK but more geared to towards Greek Tourists.

The hotel is fabulous and would be perfect if it was situated at least another kilometre closer to Finikounda which is over 2km away, with no bars in between the hotel and village. We were happy to walk, but the road has no firm path and is overgrown in places so it can be difficult to walk, particularly at night when the road is very dark. A few of the other guests were unable or unwilling to walk and had to hire cars and the travel company should have stipulated the isolation of the hotel on their website. A shuttle bus should be in operation to allow guests to go into the village easily. There are no buses that we could find, so we couldn't venture further afield, and there was only one taxi which was very busy and expensive. The hotel has a limited food menu (though the food is extremely good) and stop serving food at 2000 so you really need to go into the village for restaurants and bars. The hotel is very clean and well maintained and the pool area is surrounded by an attractive garden. The pool is large and inviting. All the staff are friendly and caring and nothing is too much trouble for them. We paid extra for a superior double room and this was large and comfortable, with a large balcony with furniture and a parasol which gave welcome shade. The view was of the garden, pool and sea. Mosquito nets are fitted to the doors which is very useful at night if you don't want to use the air conditioning. This is very noisy. The room was cleaned thoroughly every day, bedding changed twice a week, and the towels changed on request. The only slight gripe with the room was that the bathroom lighting was very dim, and as the hairdryer was fixed to the wall in there, it was difficult to see clearly to dry your hair. A tip would be to take your own hairdryer to use in the room. The safe in our room was securely fixed inside the wardrobe (unlike previous review) and was free which is a bonus. We would definitely return to the Paradise Hotel, but would probably hire a car unless a shuttle bus was in operation. On this occasion we just wanted a completely relaxing holiday, in a well kept hotel, in a quiet resort and that is exactly what we got so it was perfect for us. A huge thankyou to all the staff. The girls on reception were so welcoming and helpful with booking restaurants or with any queries. The bar and dining staff worked hard and again were always smiling and helpful. A special thank you to Lenya (or Elenya) who cleaned our room (311) so well and was always cheerful.

The hotel saves on everything: a lack of staff (we always see the same lady at reception, she obviously works alone and without days off), the room is small, there is only one (!) hook for 3 towels in the bathroom, hangers... it looks like all members of staff were obliged to to bring some hangers from home (see the photo), only one chair, etc. The wardrobe is low, it is impossible to hang even a short dress (see the photo). The safe is not secured and could be just taken away under the arm. It is locked and unlocked with a key, and there is a room number on the key, presumably to make thief's life easier. The bathroom's door is made by glass, and there are two glass windows in the entrance door, so it is a lot of light in the room all the night. The air condition is very noisy and the soundproof is poor. We stayed in the room with sea view, and technically it was true, but actually it was mainly pool view. The hotel doesn't have its own beach and the nearest public beach is terrible (you have to take a drink, but there is no WC there, so all the people must pee in the sea as there are no another options). In conclusion should I write something positive. The lady at reception is very very friendly, there is more then enough light in the room, the Internet connection is very fast, the quiet surround.

I stayed at Paradise Resort with my family in mid-July 2022. At the apartment. We had a very pleasant experience, premises and room were very clean and housekeeping did a stellar job. Service at reception, pool bar, breakfast area was top tier, wonderful people with a smile in their face ready to help out. It is also worth noting that we forgot our passports at check-out inside the safe and the hotel immediately got a hold of us to let us know. They even couriered them at no cost to us in Athens. We will surely come back next year, highly recommend it!

It's a lovely place, perfect in fact. Clean lovely rooms with a beautiful sea view, great staff and the breakfast is wonderful. I can't recommend it enough, our holiday was amazing and staying at the Paradise was a huge part of that.
