Ekati Mare Boutique Resort

Por dónde empezar... Habitación - Se describe como Deluxe/Luxury. Era una habitación pequeña, apenas espacio suficiente para columpiar a un gato, aire acondicionado roto, SIN papelera, SIN teléfono, SIN controlador de TV, SIN tetera o tetera en la habitación (está bien, solo cobran £ 3 por café en el bar). La habitación acababa de ser redecorada, bien pintada, ya que aún se podía oler, pero obviamente no estaba terminada, de ahí la falta de algo en la habitación. Una revisión previa rápida de la habitación habría resuelto muchos de estos problemas... Gestión deficiente. El plomero también debe haber tenido un día libre ya que la ducha y los grifos se habían colocado al revés. caliente=frío &frío=caliente. Está bien para nosotros, los adultos, pero imagina que un niño hubiera usado esas instalaciones. . . Me he alojado en £ 39 por noche Premier Inn con habitaciones mejor equipadas. El aire acondicionado se arregló después de 5 días (ni siquiera nos avisaron que estaba arreglado), pero eso es todo. no se proporcionó teléfono, ni controlador de TV, ni papelera, incluso después de tener que ir a la recepción todos los días para mencionarlo, ya que no teníamos un teléfono para llamar. El hotel estaba claramente medio vacío ya que era el comienzo de la temporada, pero nos dijeron que no podíamos cambiar de habitación ya que estaban completos. Servicio: el personal era agradable, pero sin experiencia, así que no pidas cócteles demasiado elegantes, ya que obtendrás lo que puedan hacer, y con bastante frecuencia la comida te llegará antes que las bebidas. El gerente se pasea todo el día viendo a su personal sudar, pero literalmente no hace nada más que sentarse en la terraza y tomar un café. (Apuesto a que no tiene que pagar £ 3 por café) Servicio de cena: no espere un menú, le dirán lo que está comiendo y varía desde carne de res en salsa roja hasta cerdo en salsa blanca (el mío en realidad salió verde). No volvimos a comer allí como te puedes imaginar. Afortunadamente no tengo ningún alérgeno ya que este lugar es un desastre esperando a suceder. El área de la piscina es agradable, les daré eso. Todo lo demás que tiene que ver con ese hotel parece estar bien, pero apenas pones el pie en la puerta antes de que empieces a ver lo malo que es en realidad. El sitio tiene un gran potencial y parece uno de los mejores lugares para visitar en Kavos, pero debido a la mala administración (Thomas), creo que se llama así. y la falta de cuidado y atención es probablemente uno de los peores lugares para quedarse. No uso esta plataforma a menudo, como verá por la falta de otras revisiones, pero esto lo necesitaba. Un desastre absoluto de lugar y un desastre de administración para acompañarlo. No me sorprendería si se cae al suelo dentro de 3 años. ¡Espero que esta revisión lo ayude a decidir NO quedarse aquí!

La piscina y la sala de estar circundante eran idílicas. Un montón de espacio para descansar, tomar el sol y relajarse. Las habitaciones estaban muy limpias y cómodas. Gran variedad de alimentos y bebidas. El personal fue excepcionalmente acogedor y amable. Hermoso alojamiento e instalaciones. Fantástico personal. Panqueques muy ricos!

Acabo de regresar de una semana y nos encantó este hotel. Tenía un ambiente encantador y el personal es increíblemente servicial, trabajan muy duro pero tienen una sonrisa y una palabra amistosa. La zona de la piscina es preciosa, con zonas de sombra para sentarse y tumbonas. El desayuno era bastante básico, pero la comida disponible para comprar durante el día era deliciosa, muy bien presentada y con una buena relación calidad-precio. El hotel en las afueras de Kavos, que es en gran medida un complejo para personas más jóvenes en julio/agosto. Como somos una pareja de unos 40 años, solíamos evitar el ***** después de las 11. Definitivamente recomendaría este hotel para una escapada relajada en pareja.

This hotel would have got 5 stars but badly let down by the food quality! Staff... Excellent, very friendly and helpful. They work hard to please their guests. Rooms... We were in the new block. Very modern, bed huge and very comfortable. Had all the facilities we needed. Great rain forest shower. Pool area... lovely, very clean. Sunbeds, beanbags, Hammock, day beds, and parasols are plentiful. The pool guy works hard to keep it clean. We didn't need to reserve a bed, but this was September, so I'm not sure about mid summer. Location... perfect in a quiet area but on the main road. It's far enough out but easily walking to the main *****. Last but not least...FOOD... I am not picky and will eat according to whichever country I am in. I understand that we all have differing palettes, but it was so sad to watch guest after guest wander around the restaurant trying to make a meal and a meal that wasn't cold! If you don't get to the restaurant for 7.30 when it opens, you are guaranteed pretty much cold food. And once the meat is gone, it's replaced with something of far less quality. It's extremely poor quality, and it's such a shame as many guests were forced to eat out. Unfortunately, breakfast is no better. Prices... The bar is not cheap. Expect to pay €3 for a small can of coke. €10 for a cocktail and the daytime food menu pretty much UK prices. Far cheaper places outside the hotel. Warning! They are very strict about even bringing a bottle of water in the hotel from outside and don't dare to even try a packet of crisps many were reprimanded round the pool. Also, smoking is still allowed here. So expect to eat your food next to people smoking We hired a bike as we always do, great to see the island. Highly recommend Visiting the River at Potami, the bars are beautiful and very pretty at night. Messonghi beach, and Issos beach is great for swimming and children as very sandy beach and shallow water. Kavos beach is awful. Roussos restaurant in Kavos is a hidden gem. Stunning food on the sea front. In conclusion. Lovely hotel, great staff, very clean, drinks not cheap, food shocking. Also, check out is 11am, and it's €100 to keep the room on till 3pm easier to use the shower facilities in the spa.

Room not cleaned, lie wires hanging out wall, cracked walls, mould in bathroom, lose shower screen, not rainfall shower but old one that’s goes cold after 1 min, greasy on extractor rather then being cleaned, told then pans where not clean so they toke away and said you can’t used then when the add said you could, building works, view from room now building site not green land

Just returned from the Ekati Mare after a 7 nights stay this was booked as part of a 50th birthday celebration with first choice the fact it was a 4* hotel on the outskirts of Kavos and is clearly advertised as being recently refurbished for 2024 was what attracted us to book this hotel. Now the bad points- on arrival we checked and was led to our accommodation. Which was not located on the resort but a short walk up a busy road I say road as there is no paths and you are walking in the road usually on the outside of parked cars very dangerous and not ideal especially when you consider we had booked a family room. When we entered the room I cannot describe the disappointment as this was far from being a 4* accommodation these are meant to be 1 bedroom apartments with lounge area these are 1 triple room with the remnants of a kitchenette that has partly been removed to fit a secondary sofa in opposite the bathroom, no blinds over the window so sun breaks through at 6am and the poor occupant is either listening to the fridge all night or being disturbed by people using the bathroom also air-con is definitely not felt in this part of the room. These are definitely not catered for 4 persons only had bedding for 3, 3 mugs, balconies only have 3 chairs. We also found that the bathroom wall was black with Mould and the room looked very tired and shabby handles falling off cupboards damaged woodwork, I’d suggest these are 2* accommodation at best. What rubs it in even more the main resort is very nice and your treated like a second class citizen thrown in the forgotten rooms. We requested room change due to the mould and health conditions asthmatic family members which was refused on the grounds it could not be accommodated. Found reception staff very unhelpful as well as the TUI rep who was on site at the time of my complaint who was very rude and completely not interested at all. Good points breakfast and evening meals was adequate not brilliant but what I’d expect and certainly no complaints from us there, always plenty of choice and clean. staff in the restaurant are amazing so friendly and helpful too. Pool area always tidy and well maintained pool for a resort of 118 rooms is very small though approx 6m x 20m and does get over crowded very easily also always warm. Never had issues getting sunbeds though. Pool bar is clean and modern offers good choice of food and drink however I found them quite pricey and with in a 5/10 minute walk you can eat out at lunch far cheaper, adverage dish price at the pool bar was €12-14 per meal, €5 for a beer, €10 cocktails. On another note there is signage around the pool clearly advising only food and drink purchased at the pool can be consumed trust me this only applies to certain people we had taken our own water and was pulled up about it yet there was individuals drinking cans of beer soft drinks and they were never challenged. Now for kavos very dirty streets littered with empty bottles and cans and hun

Me and my girlfriend stayed at Ekati Mare for 10 days, and it is the most beautiful hotel. The rooms are spacious, the food is excellent, and the staff are kind and attentive. Alexandros was particularly helpful, and took care of us during our stay. The new pool bar is amazing and the entire hotel feels luxurious. The rooms are kept clean and the pool area is well kept, and there is a variety of comfortable sun loungers and day beds. I would definitely come back to Ekati Mare to stay, I cannot fault this hotel, and offer many thanks to the staff for taking such good care of us.

Ugh. Where to start with this hotel? I'm not sure what I hated the most. The two full days without power or running water? The construction work on site with the constant noise and pollution from diggers and heavy machinery and wagons? Kavos being the most vile shanty town with dead cats by the side of the road, falling down buildings, overflowing bins? Or maybe it was the disgusting cold buffet uncovered in the heat with flies all over it? On the days when the power and water went off, food was still being served. No hand washing facilities for guests or staff but everyone was touching the serving utensils with their unwashed hands, food made by staff who can't wash their hands or cooking equipment. It's illegal to do this in the UK. Four star hotel? Absolutely not. TUI might tell you this place has a chilled, laid back vibe but I promise you it's impossible to relax by the pool with the construction noise. The smell of raw sewage from the drains on the days the water was off was beyond disgusting. It filled the entire room and made us gag. I'm a nurse, it takes a lot for me to gip at smells but it felt like the room was filled with marsh or swamp gas. It was vile. I can't overstate this enough, avoid this hotel and resort. Also Kavos closes for the season in September, so even if it wasn't a total dump and you wanted to go to some local bars, you're stuck for choice because it's almost all entirely closed until 1st May.
