Nesten toppkarakter!

Vi var seks voksne + vårt kjære barnebarn på snart to på dette hotellet i mai. Kort vei fra flyplassen er et pluss. Det samme er rommene, som var romslige og lyse. Alle tre parene fikk rom med god havutsikt. På forhånd var vi advart mot masse ungdommer og mye festing. Det stemte. Store mengder nederlandsk ungdom som festet hardt, men vi hadde heldigvis rom i andre enden av hotellkomplekset, slik at de generte ikke oss. Maten var sånn omtrent middels til å være all inclusive. Veldig godt utvalg, særlig salater og dressinger. Men dessverre som det ofte er på all inc så var smaken litt kjedelig - litt mer krydder og tro på at man kan gjøre noe med slik mat hadde gjort seg. Men bevares, vi ble gode og mette etter hvert måltid - og dessertbordet var alltid flott - noe som gjorde at man kanskje spiste litt for mye. Beliggenheten er veldig flott - hotellet er helt på stranda (en liten vei imellom). Lang strand med god plass - alltid ledige solsenger. Store og fine bassengområder - alltid ledige solsenger der også. Her har mange hotell noe å lære. Godt å slippe å se at gjestene er oppe midt på natta for å legge ut håndklær på solstolene! En masse trivelige ansatte - men dessverre med et par unntak - noe som drar ned helhetsinntrykket (skal ikke si hvem det var). Alltid rent og pent på hele hotellområdet og på rommene. Noe forvirrende (og irriterende) at ikke alle barene/snackbarene var med i all inc. Den som var på stranda (der alle de unge festdeltakerne var) var så til de grader underbemannet, at der orket vi sjelden å stå i kø. I tillegg lå den langt borte fra store deler av stranda. Men bortsett fra noen små "skjønnhetsfeil" var dette et hotell som absolutt fortjener sine fire stjerner. Men jeg tror at hadde vi hatt rom i nærheten av alle de festende ungdommene hadde nok inntrykket vært et helt annet.

Fint hotell, men kanskje best som partyhotell

Dro på familieferie med lite barn. Opplevde støyen fra hotellkomplekser og Star Beach water park som tidvis svært sjenerende. Ikke kult å ha en ABBA-kavalkade på venstre øre og et sammensurium av dårlig disco på høyre øret, mens ungen din ligger og sutrer fordi han ikke får sove. MEN, dersom du liker alt dette er hotellet fint. Bra fasiliteter i området med bading i både havet og basseng. Maten på hotellet er bra og billig, men ikke spesielt sjarmerende, gresk da...

aldri mer

aldri mer star beach village. glad jeg hadde noen dager og sove på når jeg kom hjem. lytt ut til korridorer, kunne like gjerne tatt vekk døra ut der og hengt opp ei gardin!!! masse fulle ungdommer som sprang og terroriserte med banking på dører, gaping og slossing, men det bedra seg noe den siste uka vår som var rundt den 7 aug, da dro dem gudskjelov hjem. trassig og sitte ute på verandan og slappe av på kveldene noe barnefam gjør, mye støy og leven fra star beach waterpark med disco og det som hører med. men et fint hotell anlegg, og fin strand. når jeg sier fint hotell anlegg mener jeg basseng omr, det var rent og pent rundt der, og renholdet på rommet var bra. men som sagt, alt for mye støy og fulle ungdom for vår del.

Returning Guest - Honest Review

I wasn’t going to review our recent visit & had decided to put our experience down to it being time to find somewhere new for our annual holiday…. But recent information (bear with me) has made me think otherwise…. This was our 4th visit to star beach & there is a review somewhere a few years back by me singing their praises…. This visit…. Contacted the hotel months beforehand to request an upgrade & made a room request, despite confirming via email they couldn’t do this on arrival… not hugely disappointed as similar room/location given. We had 2 rooms, family & a double…. Cleaning standards have dropped massively, the fridge was disgusting, nail clippings in the drawer, what looked like vomit on the back of the bathroom door, sticky sides…. Asked the cleaner to go over it which she did & all other daily cleans we’re good, lovely lady , always had a smile! Entertainment was pretty crap, no interaction from staff in the evening, nothing whatsoever during the day…. End of season maybe but we always visit at the end of October & this year it really was poor! Bar staff were quite miserable, both at the pool bar and across the road at the noodle bar… a smile is the same in every language yet their lips barely twitched. First Aid is non existent… which I find quite shocking considering the size of the complex…. Fortunately the pharmacy up the road were amazing! Food!!…. We were really disappointed, yes there was plenty of choice but after previous years visiting, it has definitely gone down hill… no themed nights anymore… the same every night except for a few of the show cookings which alternated… the desserts were amazing though, couldn’t fault them! Asian restaurant as always was spot on and hosted a lovely evening for a birthday we were celebrating. We had one incident in the main buffet restaurant when we noticed several of our pork skewers were undercooked, this was shrugged off by staff but left us wary & made us double check all meat before eating…. Which brings me to my main reason for writing the review… during the 2nd week one of our children became unwell, upset stomach which we originally put down to too much ice cream…. Upon returning home we sought medical assistance as symptoms worsened & results came back that she had a bad case of campylobacter, food poisoning caused by undercooked poultry & meat!!! We have had some of the best holidays at starbeach & made memories to last a lifetime but their standards really have dropped massively so we will not be returning.

Average resort, not a 4 star.

It’s an ok resort, certainly not a 4 star resort, id put it down as a 3. Could do with a lot of TLC. For all inclusive you can only eat at 3 of the restaurants which was fine, lots of choice in the main dining restaurant, it was hard to choose, which isn’t a bad thing, however after day 3, I became ill, my partner became ill day 4 and then my daughter day 7, the day we was due to fly home. I put it down to the food, because we didn’t eat anywhere else the whole holiday (because we were all inclusive). Massively ruined our whole holiday. The pool areas where clean, but unsupervised with no lifeguards guarding any. That wasn’t a problem as I believe parents should be supervising there children anyway. The VIP area isn’t in the all inclusive package, meaning you can’t used the pool or loungers in that area which was disappointing. Beach area is beautiful but cramped, we went October time, so I can only imagine how jam packed it gets in high season. I didn’t think the all inclusive drinks where that bad, yes they only had one brand of beer and one brand of red/white wine but the spirits tasted ok with lemonade or coke. Having said that, I do think there should be more choice, especially when you’ve paid so much money for all inclusive. The entertainment was average, nothing to write home about, never any events to lead up to it apart from a half an hour slot for a child’s disco. I thought maybe they would have a quiz or bingo etc something to lead up to the main entertainment event, but nothing. It’s a lovely walk (via the beach we went) to Hersonissos main town, loads of shops, bars etc some weren’t open because it was the end of season which was understandable. Like I said, average, nothing particularly special about the place.
