I’ve just got back from 5nights traveling solo, staying at the Amirandes on a half board basis. In one word, it was absolute BLISS. I’ve never stayed at a Grecotel hotel before and I really lucked out because this hotel is stunning and the service throughout fantastic. The staff cannot do enough for you. I don’t usually upload pics, but I have for this review as the hotel is just gorgeous. The hotel is a mix of adults, couples and families. There is a giant salt water pool, which I didn’t use, plus kids pool and activities. So although I was traveling solo, I didn’t feel at all bothered by children or noise etc. If anything I found the total opposite, I thought it was extremely peaceful and only ever saw people at meal times. I spent everyday on the sun beds at the beach and whilst they keep a number reserved for those staying in Villas (which I was not staying in), I had no issue with being allocated one. Tip, ask the guys who work at the beach before sitting down, saves any awkwardness, they’re very accommodating. The beach beds are amazing, they’re so deep and comfortable. There is a beach bar next to it and the guys are very good at ensuring you have what you need and your beds are set up how you want. Special shout out to Manolis, Antonis, Giannis, Zenon, Nikos and Stamatis, they are ever so polite, friendly and helpful. They really looked after me during my stay. I had half board which included buffet breakfast and lunch/or dinner. They have an additional 4 restaurants which they will apply a discount for eating there if you choose instead of the buffet. I ate at Blue Monkey (Asian), food was fantastic and Xasteria (Greek), this was superb, best meal I’ve had this year and I love my food. I ate at the buffet the rest of the time and there is massive amount of choice, which is being replenished constantly. Big shout out to Eliza who makes the omelettes at breakfast, fresh on demand, lovely lady and she makes a ‘cracking’ omelette. Considering the hotel was full whilst I was there, the only time the hotel felt busy was in the buffet area and not to a ridiculous level, you can still navigate it easily. All the staff are just so friendly, happy to stop for a chat, which makes the world of difference, especially when you’re traveling solo like me. To show an interest in me and my day, helped me feel not so alone. A big shout out to Alexandros who was ever so kind and friendly. I was originally in a room which I believe is in the original part of the hotel. Very spacious, giant bed and garden terrace with 2 loungers. There was an interconnecting door which unfortunately meant I could hear a lot of conversations from the people next door. Ideal for families or friends, unfortunately not for myself who is a light sleeper. The reception staff were ever so helpful, special shout out to Evgenia who moved me into another room in the other side of the hotel, I believe to be newer. Gorgeous room, no noise, slept like a baby for the remainder o
