the location, few tourists, friendly staff, the lawn, the ornamental olive trees

the beds are too soft, with plastic protections. there is no water at the dinner table. lack of activities in the evening.

The location is absolutely brilliant and there are plenty of swimming pools to choose from. All the staff were very friendly and we were pleased with their service.

The food at the restaurant was not great sadly. There were not many seafood options. What I found shocking is that even if you pay for half board you will be charged for the water. There is no water dispenser at dinner time, no tap water either. When I asked why is this, I have been simply told that the water is chargeable. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the biggest of issues to have, but having tap water at least would be nice and it is kind of basic requirement for any place despite of the star rating.

Beautiful setting On the beach Choice of pools Lovely decoration/vibe Lots of sun beds and places to sit and chill Kids club (not advertised so great bonus, although i was the only one that booked my child in on both times we used!) Most staff attentive - especially in the buffet restaurant

Had to pay for sunbeds by the pool with the pool bar and the beach in front of this, too. Weird as sunbeds free everywhere else. Drinks were expensive. Hence, not many bought them, and the atmosphere was therefore lacking in communal areas Food cold and average - totally acceptable but not special. No entertainment - no animation staff, kids disco, etc. Lacked things to really entertain kids and make it super special for them.

A resort that, even if it has accumulated some years, remains very well cared for both in the rooms and in the area of the common spaces and the beach. Being organized in pavilions (ground floor and first floor), it really looks like a village. Our pavilion was to the right of the central body, which also contains the lobby and the restaurant, after the pavilion the resort continues with common spaces like shops, playgrounds, swimming pools and restaurants where lunch could be served with a 15% discount for hotel customers. I chose the package with breakfast and dinner included, a very good option to be able to make trips every day around the location, as there are many options to visit (Mount Olimp, with trails and roads with a very good panorama), the archaeological site of Dion, Paleo Pantelimonas - a small and old but extremely well-arranged village on a coast with superb views, the citadel near Platamonas, chair and Thessaloniki an hour's drive away). the upstairs room is a good choice, all rooms have full/partial sea view, the beach is immaculate, long, fine sand, cleaned daily, with smooth entry into the water. The included buffet meals, with a wide variety of dishes and very good quality (except the fish/seafood area, which was there, but not as much as we expected). Live music almost every night at the outdoor bar. The perfect resort store for water and small purchases. Quick access to the motorway to start exploring the surroundings. The resort is conveniently located away from the paralia katerini resort, to have peace and privacy. Staff ok, in the basement of the central building a space for billiards and table tennis (but quite contested by children). The beach has a bar nearby for convenience.

Probably for its facilities, the resort is preferred by families with small children, so sometimes, the desired moments of peace are disturbed by their agitation.

This is our second time staying at the Mediterranean Village Hotel and Spa. We are very happy - the hotel staff is very responsive and kind. The food quality and variety is great. The hygiene is at a high level - rooms are cleaned daily, fresh towels are provided everyday, bedsheets are also changed every 3rd day. The beach is just in front of the hotel. The hotel complex is at the edge of the urban area, so not noisy or crowded,,which is much appreciated.

The waiters at the lobby bar are very slow,make mistakes and a few of them are a bit rude (although the majority are kind).

Relatively good location, with comfortable and clean facilities, regular daily cleaning service, big and spacious family rooms (we had one with a sea view and a pool right in front of the terrace); very good food (in halfboard), as well as kind and professional staff. The hotel has also an indoor pool in the Spa center, that although small (the sauna part) serves it purpose and is an ideal option for relaxation and some fun when the weather doesn't allow to swim in the sea and to lie around in the sun. Good value for money.

Not much to dislike. However, only one small playground for kids and not so good 'stress release' massage in the Spa despite not so low price, deserve to be mention in the review... Albeit, my husband was very satisfied with his 'muscle tension deep massage', meaning it depends on one's luck and the therapist one gets.

The property is beautiful. The gardens are well maintained, the hotel restaurant has a nice vibe and the food is great. The beach is spacious. Within the hotel is Captain’s Bar overlooking the pool and the beach, perfect to enjoy a drink. We stayed in two different rooms during our stay. Our first room (house n.3) was more like a 4 star hotel. The fridge was broken and leaking all the time (although to be fair we did not even request assistance for it). We felt like the housekeeping wasn’t cleaning the room enough. However the second room that we got (house n.13) was a lot nicer and the fridge was way better.

The sea gets very dirty in the afternoon. There is a lot of weed that can leave red and scratchy marks on the skin.

One can always buy an extra service at this property. One can always buy a bigger room as well, especially if you have bigger luggage. I liked the dinner on the first night we arrived There are things one can get upon request! You must ask! - Large sandy beech on-site mini market

The price of property always raises expectations. These comments are better suggestions to the management. Someone else also commented on the coffee and tea in the rooms. Instant coffee is something you find in Africa; in Greece, most decent properties provide coffee capsules. They always forget to replenish the water and powder coffee in the room. The second time even after calling the reception, they did not show up. - no mosquito nets and no mosquito repellent in the room! - be aware some room balconies have roofs some do not have - Seaweeds...

Location was great, directly on the beach. The place was calm with a lot of space between the buildings. The pool was enormous and not crowded. Food was delicious and offered variety. The staff was kind and attentive. The town was at walking distance. It is definitely worth visiting.

The staff were some of the kindest and most polite people I've ever met - always ready to help. Food was amazing, especially dinner with different options each night. Our room had a stunning sea view, really added to the experience. Free parking was a plus, even though it was a bit full when we first arrived.

The beach wasn't great - lots of seaweed. Not the hotel's fault, but a bit disappointing given how perfect everything else was.
