Vasia Sea Retreat

We were blown away with this hotel, it was even better than we expected. Upon arrival, we instantly commented on how spotless it was and this continued throughout the entire hotel. Our room was immaculate, the cleaners do a fantastic job and I hope they get the recognition they deserve. Breakfast was amazing, eggs cooked to your preference, fresh juices, English breakfast aswell as continental. There was plenty of choice. Staff across the entire hotel were super friendly and helpful. Overall, I would personally rate this hotel 5 stars. It was so peaceful and relaxing which is exactly what we were after. We enjoyed walks into town which was about 20 minutes, plenty of tavernas on the way. Would highly recommend Paradise Cove which is right by the harbour, Amelias for a brilliant atmosphere and Pink Flamingo.

A calm and relaxing retreat on the outskirts of Sissi. Although still only a 10 minute walk to the harbour. Spent a truly wonderful week here. The staff were friendly and attentive. The three pools were lovely with the most comfortable sunbeds I have ever known! The rooms were clean with comfy beds, air con, and coffee machine. Delicious breakfast and good food at the pool bar. Highly recommend this adults only hotel. I definitely plan to return!

There is only one word to describe Vasia sea retreat.

This is our first visit here, we normally stop at the vasia resort and spa, And we thought we would try the sea retreat this time. What an amazing place, so chilled and relaxing, the place is immaculate and the staff are amazing, good to see some of the staff that worked at the vasia resort like Christina on reception, Marios and the team do a fabulous job. We're stopping half board and the food every night in the restaurant has been excellent, and the all the staff are so attentive. We are going to come back the end of September. Thank you for making our week here so amazing.

Just returned from a week at the Vasia Sea Retreat in Sissi. Although a few things weren't that great, we still enjoyed our stay and would recommend it as a quiet, well-kept hotel on the edge of the Sissi area. On arrival, we were greeted with a glass of fizz before being taken to our "Premium Inland" room, booked via our UK travel agent - this room type was not an option on the hotel website (only Premium or Inland), so we weren't sure what we would get. It was a first-floor Inland view room overlooking an old shack / junk pile with a partial sea view. It was not the "Premium" style as per the website pics, but it had been renovated. The bed and air con were great. There was a small fridge, ceiling fan, large TV, coffee machine, safe and a hairdryer. Bathroom sink and mirror in the bedroom (we didn't like this). Also, there are only 10 hangers. Rooms cleaned daily and given plenty of water bottles. Room towels were replaced every other day. Pool towels were also provided. Three nice pools - two for lounging and one for swimming. Pool beds were great, but by 8am, at least half were "reserved", and many remained so until the afternoon or occasionally all day (with nobody coming to use them at all) which was selfish and awful for those who couldn't find one for a few hours in the morning. Wished the hotel had a stronger policy on preventing this. Breakfast was a basic continental selection, same every day. Anything that was supposed to be hot was lukewarm at best, usually cold. The better items were the Greek yoghurt, honey, fruit, and bread. Evening meals were a la carte, and dishes were well prepared. They also have daily specials, which are worth considering. Drinks at dinner, even bottled water or soft drinks, are not included in the half-board package and were pricey. The pool bar was over-priced, so we only used this a couple of times. Despite the issues, the staff were exceptional. The housekeeping team were friendly and respectful, and the restaurant staff were warm and welcoming to everyone. So... unless you have an issue with leaving the resort (nothing is too far in Sissi), then I would recommend eating elsewhere. If you can, book a Premium room (or better) unless you are fine with what could be a disappointing view. Being on the edge of Sissi meant it was quiet at night - but shops, car rental and tour agencies, bars, and restaurants are all a short distance away.

Impressed from the first second we arrived to the last. arrived at 1am and were given a lovely snack and drink. room was spotless and well maintained. staff were exemplary. pools great. first hotel as you enter sissi, so nice and quiet . but only 15 min walk from town centre along coast road or main road. next to the sea where you can use free beds. but no sand and swimming would be difficult, very rocky. but lovely to sit and sunbathe or find a rock pool to lie in (natures jacuzzi). perfect spot to view sunset. free shuttle to a lovely beach. a few tavernas along main road and in town centre and some bars but definitely a family/couples kind of place. very small town. would recommend AMELIA, great food, staff, atmosphere, value. because its a small town off the main highway the local bus only runs once a day early. 9:30 out 2pm back in, so if you like to get out and about , book some trips or hire a car. there are taxis too. checked out at 11am but they allow you to get a shower and use hotel towels at anytime after that before transfer which was a nice touch.
