Alia Beach Hotel by Estia

During my stay at Alia beach hotel, I had an extremely unsettling experience. A significant sum of cash went missing from my room after the cleaners came, and the situation was only exacerbated by the receptionists response. Despite my attempts to resolve the matter, I was left with a mere €20.05 in my purse, and no sense of accountability from the hotel. This incident not only put a damper on my trip but also left me questioning the hotel's security measures and customer service integrity. I'm sharing my story to urge others to be cautious and mindful of their belongings when staying here.

The hotel has spectacular views. That's about the end of the good. The bathroom was less than desirable, the open shower was directly next to the toilet that flooded when we showered. We requested additional towels to soak up the water and were told NO. The 2 towels we were provided were uncomfortable and scratchy. The "king" bed was two small beds pushed together and made separately with sheets so if you wanted to sleep next to your partner you would fall between the beds as they separated. To enjoy the view, you have to be comfortable with the rooms next to you seeing directly into your room as the balconies are separated by waist high open railings. Zero privacy. If you want to hear the ocean with the sliding doors open, you have to sacrifice your night with a room full of mosquitos as there are no screens on the sliding doors. We invited friends over to hang out on the balcony one night and the concierge called us and told us they had to leave as we only paid for 2 people. What's the point of having a big balcony overlooking the sea if you can't enjoy it with your friends? There was not ironing board or iron in the room, when we requested we were only given an old iron which left brown stains on our clothes because it was rusty. If you want a great view and don't care about anything else, this is the hotel for you. If you want any kind of service or hospitality...look elsewhere.

Great place and excellent service! Drinks could be ordered directly from the deck chair and delivered there. In addition, I received immediate help to call the ambulance when I had sudden pains. I highly recommend this place!

Great location- literally a one minute walk to the marina/start of *****. Lots of shops nearby. Lovely friendly small hotel- we were bed and breakfast. Breakfast nice fruit/cereals/coffee available. Rooms good size and cleaned every day. Staff at hotel were all lovely and friendly. We ate at the restaurant twice which was also really good, you got 10% off as a hotel guest. Lovely views over the sea, reasonable prices. Pool area/pool quite small- not very many sunbeds, but didn’t really matter to us as we mostly were at beach or out anyway. We went out every night but on return our room was quite quiet.

Firstly the breakfast and roomservice were great, the room we've stayed in was clean and had very comfortable beds! But most importantly the food was amazing, a great mix of Greek and other mediterranean food at very reasonable prices. Also very helpful and pleasant staff in the hotel and restaurant (which all spoke good english and some even some Dutch) We'd stayed for 2 weeks and I would do it again!

This review is only for Alia restaurant. Partner and decided to try Alia as it was always busy when we walked past. We were welcomed by a lovely gentleman (can’t remember his name but I know he had glasses), and seated promptly. The menu is big with lots of choice, and there a lot of different specials on the boards outside. I was quite hungry so had calamari to start which was delicious, and then the four cheese pasta for main. I was served a huge bowl of perfectly cooked pasta in a gorgeously rich sauce…with extra Parmesan 🤣 I’m a huge cheese lover so this pleased me immensely! Delicious food and setting. I’ve rated four stars, as I personally found the cocktails a little strong and overpowering. Also the staff were rushing around a lot which spoiled the ambience a bit. At one point one of the waiters dropped the oil and vinegar bottles causing balsamic vinegar to splash all over the table and up my partners arm! Luckily it didn’t get on his shirt and the young server looked a bit embarrassed so we didn’t say anything. Overall we would go back as the food was amazing!

This hotel stands out well above others in same area.Staff are great,good sense of humour and very professional.Rooms are clean,and very comfy.Good beds with coco toppers.Feel like magic.Lovely powerful showers,plenty of hot water.The hotel has many attributes,its close to beach,just across a small quiet road.Plenty of restaurants around,particularly as the Port is less than half a kilometre away,along with the bars and entertainment for the lively ones amongst you.But Alia is quiet as its a short walk away.Plenty of good peaceful, quality restaurants and eateries nearby,including the Alia Hotel itself.Food excellent and not overpriced. Many supermarkets close by,even a Lidl. Fresh fruit best bought at local stored.It looks a bit sad,but definately tastes beautiful. Fantastic boat trips in the Port.Ocean sailing day trips with food,smaller capacity to make it special and fun.Lots to see and enjoy. Lovely people.

We had a lovely time at Alia beach, the staff are very friendly and helpful, there are 2 choices of sunbeds, and the food is great especially the pizzas! The beach isnt over crowded as some are, and they dont blast music so you can really relax! Will deffinatly return on our next trip.

This review is regarding the beach service as didn't stay in the hotel. What a little gem! After being asked to leave our usual beach at Ammos (long story but you can read my review if interested) we found Alia Beach. Very friendly attentive staff and great food. You can either eat up on terrace or have it brought to you at your sunbed. The sunbeds are nicely spaced out and very comfortable. The owner is lovely and very friendly too. Just wish we had found this beach sooner!
