Anassa

First off the hotel is beautifully situated and looks absolutely stunning. Lovely architecture with a picturesque backdrop. We enjoyed our stay at the hotel but it fell a little short of our expectations. The heated pools were absolutely lovely and never felt over crowded. A nice volume of music played in the background and there were always staff around to order drinks/food from. Not sure what was going on with the ordering system though as I don’t think I once received the correct bill. Watersports were plentiful if you wanted to ski, banana boat ride etc. which we did so. Our main gripe was the out dated rooms which lacked any warmth. A great big tv thrown on a side board in an awkward position. The beds looked at though they just had the duvet inner laid across them - no effort to make them look even the slightest bit appealing. These are the kind of rooms my late grandparents liked especially the bathroom which had a toilet with a phone on the wall and a bidet, just to highlight how outdated they are. Honestly the rooms were so disappointing and not in the slightest bit 5 star. We only ate at Helios restaurant and insisted on eating outside despite the weather as the interior is absolutely awful! Lacking any warmth or atmosphere despite a lady playing REM & Coldplay tunes on the Harp…again my late grandparents would have been at home here. Maybe I’ll feel more comfortable at this hotel when I’m post 60, but as a late 40’s couple with an 11 year old it lacked soul. All of the staff we interacted with were extremely pleasant. On requesting a late check out we were given a very definite “no” which was frustrating given the hotel seemed half empty, but understand another “conference” was checking in.

The Hotel The hotel is beautiful and serene, featuring a majestic main building with marble accents and well-maintained gardens. The main swimming pool is large and ideal for swimming. There is also a second, smaller pool that is warm but quite tiny. The beach has small pebbles; it would be nicer if it were sandy. There are both tennis and paddle courts available, which is a great feature. The spa offers excellent massages. The hotel is child-friendly; we have been staying there here with our 5-year-old son for 7 nights. The Room The room is spacious; however, the mattress was uncomfortable, and I experienced back pain throughout my stay. The Food The breakfast is extensive, featuring fresh, local ingredients. Among the restaurants, the poolside restaurant/bar offers the best service and good food. Helios serves excellent dishes—especially the foie gras pâté and chocolate tart—although the service can be inconsistent. Pelagos serves delicious grilled fresh fish, but the service is also mixed there. The Square Village is a fun way to explore local cuisine, and the live music and dancers make for a great experience. The Location The hotel is very well located, making it easy to take private tours of the Akamas Peninsula.

Anassa is amazing, the best hotel I’ve been to so far. Every part of the hotel is beautiful, clean and cultivated. The staff and service are really good. The facilities are beyond imagination. Large pool, beautiful private beach, many restaurants, inside large pool, very big and well equipped gym, spa, hot tub. The room is nice and clean. I visited in September 2024 and it was the perfect weather and the hotel wasn’t packed. The hotel is very far from everything, it’s nice because it’s extremely quiet and at night you can see stars, but you can’t go by foot outside the hotel. You can take a taxi to the nearest restaurants in Latchi (5 minute drive for 10 euros) and you need to take a taxi to and from the airport. The restaurants of the hotel are expensive. I didn’t like the food at the pool but everything else was very good. Beautiful breakfast with homemade cheeses and jams. I’ll definitely recommend it and come back myself!

From the moment we arrived, the service was truly exceptional, with a staff that went above and beyond to be friendly and welcoming. Our room was immaculate and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and tidy retreat. The breakfast was a definite highlight, boasting excellent quality and a fantastic variety of delicious options. Highly recommended!

A fantastic hotel in an excellent location! The staff are awesome, very helpful. Great facilities and excellent food. Nice beach, perfect for a swim in the clear sea. Great sites such as the harbour of Latchi and the Bath of Aphrodite with hiking trails are close by.

This hotel is simply stunning, located right by the seaside with a clean, spacious area that makes you feel like the heroine of a movie. The rooms are impeccably cleaned, and the breakfast is fabulous with a wide variety of options. The staff are friendly and welcoming, always ready to help. The on-site restaurants are top-notch. We will definitely be coming back here again
