Embonas Holiday Rentals

"We're just back from 8 days here. First of the staff particularly at reception are fantastic. As soon as you note a problem they get it fixed and are mostly apologetic over issues that happen. Unfortunately for anyone travelling with young children there are a few problems that could easily be avoided if staff reported broken or faulty items such a jagged broken children's table. Others are unavoidable like the towel rack that fell on my 1 year olds head whilst she was on the toilet. The children's pool is extremely slippery with multiple children and adults slipping over. Entertainment is somewhat lacking. Food great array of things particularly if you are not fussy. Vegetarian or vegan is not catered for - I had been told multiple times a dish was vegetarian with bacon or vegetarian with X or simply it is vegetarian no meat or fish to realise it had meat on. On that basis I would not recommend for anyone with an allergy either. Pool area is t cleaned during the day unless you are at the tables. Othe then that staff are helpful and quick to resolve issues. Hotel seems that it was once great but is starting to need repairs/ replacements. One of the few hotels where the road doest lead directly to the pool or exposed part of hotel. Great for travel around the island with bus stop right outside and reception will give a timetable of busses upon request."

"We have had a lovely time. The hotel is beautiful and staff are lovely. However for a 5 star resort - there were some small issues that’s shouldn’t be there. We were here for a long weekend and probably wouldn’t return. The bars are not fully stocked - as I am pregnant I asked for alcohol free and at each bar they had to run to another location to get them. On a couple of occasions my partner had had 2 drinks before my one. (Small problem). The Italian is located outside so a little windy, so bring a jumper for the evenings. They also give blankets, however these were also taken for people at the pool bar, so again they ran out. (Small problem). One of the days it was cold and windy so people naturally used the spa, they ran out of towels, so again another wait for towels. Also not enough sun beds, plenty of room but little sun beds out. Our room key didn’t work on 2 different occasions so back to reception to sort. They said it was due to being near a phone, but we kept it in the bag each time away from phones. Pools are freezing, including swims ups! No one was in any of them. We were lucky and managed to get reservations in all the restaurants. Lovely food and staff again are lovely. Our last night, we believe they forgot about our mains as we waited over an hour between starter and main. A visit to the snack bar for a burger, we were told beef burger had finished, with an hour and half still of opening time. Overall small problems, would expect better. "

"We have just come back from a truly amazing experience from all the team at Casa Cook! Anyone thinking of booking, we couldn’t recommend it enough- book!! You will not be disappointed, the staff are so friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious, an amazing selection at breakfast and dinner. Wish we stayed longer to try more of the food available. Five star experience at dinner from all the staff. Stunning surroundings within the complex. We were lucky enough to be surprised with being upgraded to one of the best villas. Never experienced this before and wondered what the catch was, but no catch. We really appreciated this wonderful gesture! We are already planning on returning, when we were there, a few other people were returning guests, which speaks volumes. Thank you so much to everyone at Casa Cook for being a part of making our beautiful holiday memories x"

"Aweful. How to make people feel like they haven’t paid enough to warrant good service. We just did Half Board- and clearly this hotel prefers AI clientele. Couldn’t get nice coffee because we hadn’t paid for some package, so instant only. Couldn’t get sunbeds near the beach because we hadn’t paid for some service. "

"A beautifully designed resort with great food and fantastic private-pool villas We had a very good stay and genuinely appreciated how the hotel handled a difficult start. After an unpleasant experience with our airport pickup driver (not the hotel’s fault), the team very graciously upgraded us to a villa with a private pool — a gesture we really valued. The villa itself was fantastic: a huge pool, spacious rooms, and total comfort. We were thrilled with it. The food and drink options were another highlight. Everything was high-quality, and the food truck and ice-cream corner added a fun touch. The hotel layout and design are exceptional — it feels more like a thoughtfully designed village than a traditional resort. The kids club was fine and worked well for short visits. A few downsides: the beach is very rocky and gets extremely hot, so it’s not the easiest to enjoy, even though it’s conveniently close. And while most staff were helpful, the breakfast service often felt rushed and not particularly friendly, which stood out compared to the otherwise great experience. Overall, a beautiful property with strong food options and truly wonderful villas — we left happy and recharged."

"Best hotel i have been to excellent food rooms and waterpark 5a*****"

"I have to admit I was not happy with my room. It was dated, with a non-working shower and full of insects, especially after it went dark. However, I cannot but admit that the people managing the property (a family of four plus staff) went out of their way to make this a memorable stay. They were incredibly hospitable and their engaging personalities ended up making this a memorable experience; one that would make me consider returning in the future; albeit in a different room (hopefully). There is a small menu available to residents of the hotel. Do try it. The prices are incredibly competitive and you will enjoy dishes representative of local and Greek cuisine, offered at generous portions and great taste. "

"Fresh omelette every day. Staff can’t do enough for you. Room with pool was amazing. Beach is so lovely and peaceful but get some beach shoes to make entering sea easier. "

"Amazing property- fabulous beach steps away and great for kids"
