Sunshine Vacation Club Reviews

Arrived at the airport only to get stopped by the drug squad to be strip searched, nice welcome! So make sure you get your cases and leave the airport as quickly as you can in a group and don't dare to dress different!!!
Taxi to the hotel was 13 euros. Ask for a price list from the driver as they have set tariffs to different parts of the island, all reasonable prices.

On arrival at the hotel the main foyer is large, airy and all marble, nice and cool. The reception staff were very friendly and spoke good English.
The only problem with arriving late (2am after the search)is there is nowhere to get a drink as there are no facilities in the room or round the resort so be prepared and take something with you.
once you have booked in the porter takes your cases (and if your in the last block, you as well), on a kind of golfing cart to your room.

The rooms are like any other hotel room, cleaned every day, beds made and towels changed. beach towels are available free of charge and plenty of sun beds, but if you want to get close to the main pool be prepared to get up earlier than the Germans to stake your claim with your towel, when we arrived we observed the towel ritual, at 3.30 am!!!!!
The resort is clean and tidy, not suitable for disabled though due to the amount of steps.
Up until now it has been leased to a German tour operater all this is set to change next season with major refurbishment of the rooms and a change of management so next season it will be readily available to the British market.
Still mainly Germans at the hotel at the moment so as you can imagine the Germans still think they own it!!!! Some are quite rude and seem to think they can reserve everything with a towel or handbag and jump queues if in a hurry.
The hotel staff are very helpful and friendly.
The food is ok like most other all inclusive hotels but gets a bit repetitive after a few days. The waiters are very efficient but may take your plate while you still have the cutlery in your hands, we did see the funny side though.
The hotel is on the arrivals flight path but I have to be honest it didn't really bother us.

On the whole it's a lovely clean hotel and right on the beach and plenty to keep the kids occupied.
The staff in the resort are friendly and helpful.

Best to describe this hotel as Butlins without the fun fair. Very large (500 rooms) spread out over a third of a mile. If you're in block 5 or 6 its a long walk for a meal.

Well kept pools and rooms. Maids in every day to makes beds, change towels and empty bins. They made patterns with our night attire and left on bed (nice).

The food was very good for massed produced meals. Didn't get bored with it. You can book a meal at the 'snack bar' for a change. They provide Italian and Greek food. Can recommend the Italian. You need to book early the day b4 at the reception for this.

There is NO LIFT to the food hall only 20 steps, not good for the disabled. Plus long walks if you're in the wrong block.

Plenty of sporting things to do, tennis, beach volley ball, water polo etc. Animation Team tries hard to get you going.

There is almost always a breeze here which we found good to keep us cooler in the day but it does make things too cool at night. (this was in late May early June, could be different in July/Aug)

You are also right on the flight path for landing (depending on wind direction) gets noisy but cant say it bothered me much.

Its also right on the beach, loads of sunbeds on beach and round pools.

All in all i think this holiday will suit families best.
