The Manager was top notch, we booked last min and was greeted with a drink and asked to wait one moment while the finished getting the room available. Within 5 min we were taken to our room. The staff, location and beach were all so nice we decided to extend our stay an extra day. The Manager once again was able to make arrangements for us to stay in our same room. Will definitely stay here again if we make it back to this Beautiful location.

Rooms are very dated

The room was very dated and needs renewal. However, it was clean. The communal areas are newer and fine. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

Overall, I enjoyed staying here. It was bit confusing to me to find their parking lot. (It's beside train station). Hope they have another sign for Emi Seaside guest parking with an arrow. The owners (family runs the apartment) were all so friendly, kind and energetic. Only son speaks English but had no problem at all. We had to wait a little bit (5mins?) to be hosted because the owner was a bartender as well, he was making cocktails for other guests. He served us free cold orange juice which was very refreshing in hot weather. At the first glance at our room, it was not what I expected but as I stayed here longer, I really liked it. The property is old but everything looked clean. Also can't complain about the price. The beach in front of the hotel is pretty good too.

Wir hatten eine sehr erholsame Woche im Emi Seaside. George ist ein aufmerksamer und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber, der sehr viel Wert auf Gastfreundschaft und persönlichen Austausch legt. Er ist immer verfügbar und sorgt sich sehr um die Anliegen und Wünsche der Gäste. Das Emi verfügt über einen hoteleigenen Strandabschnitt mit Liegen und Schirmen. Bei den Liegen muss man etwas aufpassen, weil die Kopflehne sich beim hinsetzen manchmal einklappt, aber das ist eine Gewöhnungssache. Toll ist, dass man am Strand Snacks und Getränke bestellen kann, welche an den Platz gebracht werden (Danke Stavros!). Am Strand und am Pool gibt’s auch WLAN. Wir hatten ein sehr sauberes Doppelzimmer, welches viel größer war als erwartet - ein großer Koffer und zwei kleine konnten aufgeklappt auf dem Boden liegen, ohne dass man durch diese beeinträchtigt wird. Danke an George und das gesamte Team für den tollen und erholsamen Urlaub.

Tolle Unterkunft mit sehr freundlichen Gastgebern. Unser Apartment war im zweiten Stock, mit dem Aufzug erreichbar, mit Balkon, Meerblick und für griechische Verhältnisse einem recht großen Badezimmer. Die Gastgeber haben bei Problemen oder Anliegen immer gleich reagiert, waren sehr freundlich und herzlich. Volle Empfehlung und gerne wieder.
