Agios Sostis Holidays

Our hosts Dionisis and his wife Aggeliki were wonderful. They greated us warmly on arrival and upgraded our room with a sea view without any extra cost when we checked in which was a lovely surprise and also gave my partner a huge birthday cake on our second day when they heard it was her birthday. They also gave us some gifts on leaving to remember our stay with them. The perfect hosts. Dionisis has made his own map of the island which you can have a copy of, indicating various day trips and the best sites to visit on each day trip and even a discounted boat trip to visit the blue caves and shipwreck beach (if you say you are staying at the Belussi beach hotel) Our room was large and clean with a lovely sea view from the balcony. The staff were all so friendly throughout our stay and we had some lovely chats with them when they were on and off duty. Every one of the staff were friendly from the cleaners to the restaurant and bar staff. I highly recommend you hire a car for the duration of your stay. There are three local restaurants within 5 mins walk if you wish to walk to dine out away from the hotel and a supermarket is a ten minute walk through an olive tree lined road. But if you want to explore the island properly and explore what it has to offer you need some transport. You can use a taxi or a bus to explore but this would really limit what you can see. The hotel has everything you need to enjoy swimming in the sea and days around the pool. The breakfasts superb.

We stayed for 2 nights at Karras Hotel. We do not recommend this hotel to anyone who plans on resting and enjoying their room & amenities. Our room had several issues: - water from the main drain in the bathroom was constantly backfilling after showers and flooding not only the bathroom but also our room. We had to move our things around and put down towels to prevent the water from ruining our things. - leaking pipping under the sink, all our towels were wet with dirty water - phone in room not working - supporting mirror in bathroom loosely fixed to the wall, can easily fall and hurt someone or break the main mirror We notified the staff of some of these issues during our stay, we could only temporarily have another room to shower and come back to our original room. When we checked out we notified the staff of all these issues and they didn’t write down any of these problems. The only positives: - price point - location

Great location in Tsilivi and nice amenities including pools, breakfast, gym (which was not listed on the website so a pleasant surprise). Rooms were as described and clean. Staff, particularly Georgia at the front desk where extremely friendly and helpful.
