Cape Kanapitsa Hotel & Suites

Nagyrészt elégedett voltam, ami igazából idegesített az a takarító volt. Nincs ugyanis olyan kilincsre tehető tábla, hogy ne jöjjön. Mindig, amikor ebéd után kicsit pihentem volna, a frászt hozta rám a kopogtatásával. Ezen felül zuhanyozni csak teljes sötétségben lehet, mert nincs telepítve lámpa a zuhanyzóba, nagyon furcsa volt. És hát a 30 eurós légkondicionáló kifizetése sem esett jól. Összeségében szerintem nem 5 csillag, de kissé furcsa, de jó szállás.

Fantastic hotel, views from bedroom were fantastic. The pool lovely and clean, plenty of sun beds, relaxing music. Would have liked tea and coffee facilities in the room and another toaster at breakfast, that’s the only reason why I knocked it down a star.

This is not a bad hotel by any means. However, it rates itself as 5star and it most certainly is not that. As an aside the Greek Climate Resilience Fee payable on arrival is based on the hotel's star rating, so you will pay 15 euros/night for what is essentially a 3 star hotel. (the 3 star rate is 5 euros/night). The good points: absolutely amazing position with wonderful views of outlying islands, really great staff who couldn't be more helpful in all situations. The not so good: room was listed as a deluxe double room, one up from the classic, but our room was a little dated. A free standing wobbly fridge positioned in a cupboard, unreliable hot water throughout, no dressing/pool gowns in the room, and some electric sockets coming off the walls. Additionally, although the balcony was large and had a good view, the sliding doors were single glazed and let in a lot of motorbike noise late at night. The room furniture was very limited, two whicker chairs and a whicker table outside, no chairs or coffee table inside the room. I felt that the room was not a luxury room as described. On our last day we booked a classic room for the day because our flight was not until 9 pm in the evening. The classic room, whilst slightly smaller, was much smarter, with a built in fridge, dressing gowns provided, all electrics properly fitted and a coffee table and chair inside the room. The double balcony doors were smart modern double glazed units, and outside was a table and two chairs. Pool Area: the sunbeds around the pool, whilst new, were the stretched fabric type with no cushions, not likely to be comfortable for very long. We fully expected a more upmarket hotel with perhaps an evening dining area separate from the morning breakfast area. Had there been one we could have dressed up and happily paid the restaurant prices, (very weak cocktail at 14 euros as an example). Some very good points but overall disappointing

We stayed at the Hotel Kanapitsa which overlooks the bay. The hotel has a great location view wise but there is limited restaurants within walking distance. We caught the water taxi from the beach which is 4.5 euros each to Skiathos town where you are spoilt for choice for eating and drinking. Taxis were 15 euros each way so factor that into your evening cost.

My wife and I had a reasonable experience at this hotel, however have rated this as a 3* on the basis that the hotel is not a 5* and so would seem strange and potentially misleading for others to give anything else. The Pro's 1) Staff - from reception to the pool bar to housekeeping, staff at the hotel were exceptional, always happy to please. 2) Room cleanliness - apart from smell noted below, the room cleanliness was of a very good standard, with housekeeping changing towels etc on a daily basis. It would have been a nice touch to have water replenished on a daily basis (like at other hotels), but not a big deal, just a suggestion. 3) Breakfast/bar food - plenty of choice at breakfast and enjoyable. We ate from the pool bar on two occasions - both being good food and generous helpings (Classic Club Sandwich and BBQ Burger). The Cons 1) The building itself: the intention was probably there at design stage, but the execution of the build lacks in many departments, with the primary one being not finishing off many of the finer details (such as floors in corridors, lighting on steps, exposed pipework and electrics and steel girders under balconies left exposed). The room itself lacks furniture and what there is is of an inferior quality. 2) The smell in our room/in corridors - the smell from drains was a problem in both our room and adjacent corridors. Buying lavender didn't really help too much. All in all, a reasonable stay at the hotel, subject to the above.

A great hotel with the most amazing views. We had a sea view room , very spacious, huge bed, large terrace, large bathroom & excellent air conditioning. Pool and bar area are beautiful with the most stunning views and the two young boys working the bar were amazing. Breakfast was delicious, plenty of choice , breads, pastries, cold meats , fresh fruits & yoghurt & and the full English which was lovely . All staff very friendly & extremely helpful. Would definitely stay here again & highly recommend. Thank you for a lovely stay xx
