Arrived at the Melpo Antia late Wednesday,tired after a full day of travel,less my suitcase and in need of refreshment. Fortunately, the front desk reception staff were on the ball.. After being escorted to my poolside room, which was most impressive,I has a quick shower and a cool beer from the poolside bar. In the meantime my suitcase was collected from an hotel at an earlier drop off point.Really grateful for the quick remedy. Buffet breakfast the following morning was first rate.(Freshly made bread and rolls ) and convinced me to upgrade to half board. The dining room is quite spacious and the waiting staff are very proficient and always do everything with a smile. With an adjoining open air dining area there is never a queue for a table.Both areas are ably overseen by the maìtre d ' Lorenzo who,like his staff, seems to have boundless energy. Dining on Thursday evening was a delight and I was extremely impressed with the variety of dishes on the menu.. The head chef Xiambi certainly has the flair to cater for every palate.After three weeks sampling all the different theme night menus I can honestly say as an experienced amateur cook,anyone not satisfied with the presentation and standard of "fayre",should seek foodie therapy. The two pools have ample sunbeds with parasols and the cooling water temperature is most welcome after even a short spell under the sun. Entertainment is somewhat limited though Valentino,the entertainment man does manage to induce folk to play darts in the morning and arranges the surround music in the daytime..Evening fun is a short bingo session,followed by a general knowledge quiz and most nights a singer,karaoke or jukebox session. Summaring,on my last full day here,this hotel,staff, from reception through dining and poolside staff are to be commended. In the words of Arnie,I'll be back !
