Evripidis Hotel

It was an amazing experience to be at that hotel. Our suite room with pool and sea views was truly outstanding, breakfast was excellent and the whole place was very clean. Hygiene is very important to me; that place was super clean, lovely family, hard worker and very friendly family, I cannot wait to return, but next time I will definitely stay longer. Thanks for a wonderful holiday. I think you are an amazing family. Cheers from Roza from Kosovo 🇽🇰

Beautiful hotel, splendid location. Family couldn’t do enough for you. Breakfast was great, and all the drinks and snacks were well priced. Swimming pool is stony in places, but fine. Rooms are clean, tidy and the shower is the best I’ve ever had in Greece! Afitos is about a 40 mi Ute walk but on a dimly lit road. Kallithea is quite busy, like a melting pot of nations, but has everything from traditional Greek food, (not moussaka, but beans, beans, lemon roasties), to pizza, gyros and crikey loads of ice cream and crepes!! If you want to get drunk and vomit, don’t go there!

First Hotel I have ever stayed in where the WiFi worked well everywhere. Stayed in the new 'deluxe rooms' quite spacious ,very comfortable, lots of clean sheets and towels, free safe, TV(BBC), air con if required, fridge, kettle, nice furnishings, balcony over olive grove gardens and stylish modern en suite bathroom. Pool terrace has lovely cliff top view though the pine trees to the sea and beaches below, tree shaded areas if you get too hot, pool bar with a few snacks available. Buffet breakfast choice isn't huge, but includes a few interesting local things. 5-10 min walk to nearest local town Kasandra with supermarket, shops, bars and restaurants, quiet in the week, but lively at weekend with a mostly younger set. 40 min walk to the north (6 euro taxi) is the beautiful traditional old town of Afytos with many relaxing restaurants and bars to watch the world go by. Some with cliff top sea views.

This is 30 room, family owned and professionally run hotel. It is set in good well maintained grounds, on a cliff top overlooking the sea. More on location later. There are ten original rooms and 20 newer ones, they are all the same acceptable size with generous furnished balconies. We upgraded to a newer, 'superior' room, it was about 20 steps from the pool and the same from the breakfast room. The rooms are contemporary, the bathroom is small but the walk in shower is massive and there's plenty of hot water, towels are changed on request. The pool has plenty of free sunbeds but lots of shade which may be welcome in July or August but, not terribly welcome at the end of September! The pool itself is not tiled, it has a base of tiny pebbles, if you are taking children, I'd recommend they wear plastic shoes in the pool and kiddies pool. The family that run Evripidis, from Gran, to her daughters and their children as well as Everipidis himself, are an absolute delight. The welcome was first class, the service excellent, nothing was too much trouble for any of the family. Breakfast, a buffet, had a decent selection of both hot and cold food and drinks. It was more than adequate for us, if a little repetitive. Maid service was OK but only OK. The rooms were clean and were cleaned daily, however, the beds were not made up well - we had twin beds and on one of the bedding changes, we had a double sheet on the bottom and singles on top! Not the end of the world and easy to overcome, I give this detail as an example of the maid service lack of attention to detail. The beach is visible from the hotel but getting to it is difficult, it's down a steep, actually very steep, makeshift set of steps that twist and turn. In places there is no handrail and even, no steps toward the bottom! Getting back up is difficult to say the least. Evripidis is set off of a dark, poorly maintained road which is not illuminated at night, it's about 1.5miles to Afitos (a nice touristy but traditional Greek village). It's about half a mile from Kallithea, this small resort town is nothing like any Greek resort I've ever been to. It is run down, dirty, full of empty closed down shops, arcades, fur and leather shops (which served the Russian visitors who have been absent since the Ukraine war started), fast food places and frankly, is just horrible. I'd go to the hotel itself again in a heartbeat but never will, due totally to the location.

Very friendly hotel. Staff brilliant and work hard for a great holiday. Made our stay such a good experience. Room was great with nice balcony to relax on. Walk down pathway to beach is ok but on way back trees keep you cool. We opted for beds at very reasonable cost. Nice sandy beach with Lear water.

Flawless service in a spotless hotel. One week was not enough. The staff can not do enough to help you. We felt really well.looked after. It may only be 2 star but don't let that put you off. What it does not offer in facilities is certainly made up for in service, quailty and location.
