What a holiday! From the second we walked through the door we were welcomed so well all the staff were very accommodating and friendly. The pool and bar area was very nice and relaxing including an optional beach bar and area which was a massive bonus. The food was amazing which included local cuisine which we loved! The rooms very clean and nice sea views and even gifted with wine and fruit on our first day! William is the best bar man in Greece always very friendly. Definitely reccomend to anyone looking for a lovely getaway me and my girlfriend had the best time!

Filthy - Steer Clear. We stayed for 1 night in August 2024! Do not book if you want an enjoyable holiday! So, it was the first holiday abroad (all-inclusive) for me and my eldest son in 16 years, my younger twos first holiday abroad and my first solo holiday with my children. I wanted it to be special but the start was far from it. We arrived around midnight to be greeted in a clean hotel reception with friendly staff and were shown to our room. The first thing we noticed as we walked through the complex was the awful smell of sewerage and that smell continued into our room. As soon as we turned the lights on we saw the disgusting state of our room (507). The two single bed mattresses were extremely dirty and stained, so much so me and the youngest two slept on the double bed and my eldest spent the night sleeping on top of our two suitcases! The door frames and skirting boards were rotten and the bathroom seemed grubby and the supposed recent makeover incomplete. The vents were dirty. There were ants in the room and bathroom. We couldn’t help but notice another smell too. The next day (my Birthday) we complained and were offered an upgrade at their sister hotel. We went to visit and whilst the other hotel was amazing we decided to stick with the Sunrise Hotel, after they said the mattresses would be replaced. We spent the afternoon in the pool (it was pleasant but the metal guide/handle into the pool was insecure and wobbly). We then explored the food - it was basic and not to our taste or expectations, not helped by the awful sewerage smell. The drinks were watered down and warm. The smell seemed to intensify when visiting the onsite shop - which my kids renamed the stinky shop. There was not enough sun beds and the ones there were clearly needed replacing. We went back to the room (the mattresses had not been changed) to have a shower to find it did not work correctly - water was coming from the tap but the mixer part did not work. My eldest then decided to see what his other smell was and pulled out me of the cabinets out to find this awful mess (see photo) which looks to me like human baby poo! That was the final straw and we were upgraded to the other hotel and then managed to enjoy our holiday. Sunrise did say they would get the manager to come and look at the room but this didn’t happen. The photos you see on the website are nothing like the room we had (apparently a superior family room - it definitely was not & if they class it as that I’d hate to see the standard version)! It is false advertising. The beach was attractive but there was the awful smell. So my advice is steer clear! How can they run a hotel with such disgusting poor standards?! The only good thing is them arranging an upgrade to a different hotel.

3rd time of staying at The Sunrise and each time we stay it only gets better.
Beautiful hotel with a stunning view and on the beach.
On arrival we had a plate of fruit and a bottle of wine waiting for us in our room.
The staff are really lovely and extremely helpful. There are 2 pools and a separate bar for over 16s only if you like it a bit quieter.
The food is amazing and always plenty of choice. We always come for the Greek Easter and the restaurant was done out beautifully and everyone joined in The Easter celebrations together.
For us it's the perfect place to stay for our holidays, I wouldn't hesitate to book this hotel. Looking forward to our next visit already!

Absolutely Amazing Stay – Can’t Wait to Go Back!
I recently visited this beautiful hotel right on the beach in Pefkous with my friends and family, and we had the best time ever! The location is simply stunning – waking up to the sound of the waves and having the beach just steps away was a dream.
The staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, and their genuine hospitality really stood out.
And the food – wow! Every meal was delicious, with fresh local ingredients and a variety of options that kept everyone in our group happy (even the picky eaters!). Dining with a view of the sea just made everything taste even better.
This was the perfect place to relax, have fun, and make amazing memories. We’re already planning our next trip back – can’t recommend it enough!

Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Absolutely Do Not Recommend This Hotel!
I'm currently staying at this hotel for my vacation, and I feel it's important to warn others about this place.
First and foremost, the drinking water is salty – it seems they source it directly from the sea. The same goes for the bathing water. This is a significant issue!
What's more, the cleaning staff has been stealing money from our room. Despite "do not disturb" signs being clearly displayed, they still enter. Not only was our money stolen; other Polish guests also reported thefts. We reported the issue to the police, but the police are doing nothing about it, constantly sending us from one place to another.
The hotel's location is another major drawback. It's literally in the middle of nowhere, with absolutely nothing to do nearby. This place is only suitable for those who want to do nothing but relax at the hotel. There's nowhere to go for a walk; you can only go a few hundred meters left or right along a busy road that has a sidewalk for only a short stretch before it disappears, and cars drive incredibly fast. The only option for a walk is the beach, which is rocky and truly filthy, incomparable to beaches in Spain. When you walk on the beach, your whole body sinks into the tiny pebbles, and if you want to swim, you'll need water shoes because it's full of rocks and there's no clear seabed.
The food is monotonous and repetitive.
Pool issues are also a problem. Putting up a sun umbrella is torture because they're damaged. To open one, you have to go to the bar for some kind of screw – I've never encountered anything like it. Additionally, the bottom of the pool and the water filtering grates are genuinely dirty and not cleaned systematically.
Finally, I've never experienced anything like this: while trying to relax by the pool, someone was mowing the lawn with a noisy gas-powered mower right next to us. It was incredibly disruptive.
In summary, I absolutely do not recommend this hotel. I understand it's one of the cheaper options, and my expectations weren't sky-high, but I've stayed in similarly priced hotels that were far better.
