Apostolata Island Resort & Spa

Isaac Hunt

Lovely, food and wine has been fantastic. Different wide selection on the buffet every day. Proper yoghurt and a honeycomb on the breakfast bar. Great for ketogenic diet, and lots of veggy options as well as meats and fish. Nice big room with a bath and shower, sea views. Lovely pool. Nice helpful staff. Small shop on site for snacks, beach stuff. There were lots of housemartin nests about the place with baby birds being fed while we were there.

⭐ 1/5 – The Most Expensive Disappointment Having spent approximately £2,600 on this holiday, including an additional £750 for the “all inclusive” package, we expected a genuine 5-star experience. Unfortunately, Louis Apostolata Resort & Spa fell well short of those expectations. The staff were generally polite and the hotel was peaceful, but beyond that the experience was disappointing from start to finish. The hotel appeared clean at first glance, but bird droppings were common around the resort due to birds nesting throughout the property, and ants were regularly visible in hallways. Housekeeping was inconsistent, even forgetting to replace a bedsheet after cleaning our room. The room itself was poorly designed. The shower drenched the toilet area every time it was used, the “double bed” was simply two single beds pushed together, there was no iron provided, and even the safe required a separate key from reception. The bathroom layout also offered very little privacy. The biggest issue was the all inclusive package. Despite paying a significant upgrade fee, much of the drinks menu was excluded, including several cocktails, beers, wines and bottled soft drinks. The Pepsi on tap was particularly poor. Food quality was equally disappointing. The buffet regularly served food that was either undercooked, overcooked, cold or lacking flavour. The themed evenings focused more on presentation than quality, while desserts rarely changed throughout the stay. The snack bar offered limited options for all inclusive guests, small portions and restrictive serving times. The entertainment was arguably the worst part of the holiday. A member of staff constantly approached guests trying to encourage participation in activities that felt poorly organised and amateur. Music was frequently blasted around the bar area alongside flashing coloured lights, creating an atmosphere more suited to a nightclub than a relaxing resort. Even the quiz nights were poorly run, with answers written on Post-it notes and the host regularly getting their own questions wrong. The spa area was another disappointment, with one of the pools sitting completely empty throughout our stay and staff constantly approaching guests attempting to sell treatments. To finish things off, we were presented with an unexpected €150 tourist tax bill at checkout. Whilst this may have been included somewhere in the check-in paperwork, it was never verbally explained and felt like an unpleasant surprise at the end of an already expensive holiday. Overall, this hotel appears far more interested in looking luxurious than actually providing a luxury experience. Between the disappointing food, restrictive all inclusive package, poor entertainment, questionable room design and unexpected additional costs, this was not the premium holiday we were promised. I would not return and would strongly advise anyone considering the all inclusive package to save their money.

Location is fantastic and they have a mini bus to skala, however to enjoy the area and indeed the island a rental car is essential. The roads are extremely easy to navigate and quiet. The staff and management are totally faultless. Demos. Nico. The 2 George's Lambros. Demi, to name a few. I could go on but I won't, just book and go you will not be disappointed.

This is the furthest thing from a 5 star hotel. Poor service, no induction, sat and WATCHED US CARRY 3 large suitcases to reception when we have kids. Rude staff, apart from about 3 of them. Demand you pay for everything, poor treatment. Ants everywhere cockroaches in room, racially discriminated against the whole time we were here. Ruined our holiday! They also do not care for their cats
