| said: Food was substandard and mainly cold. The rooms were relatively clean but the beds smelled of stale urine we were in one of the basement dungeon rooms and were bitten all over by big red ants.
The hotel is in the middle of nowhere there is nothing to do unless you like wind surfers or kite surfers.
The water park next to the hotel is 10 euros for adults and 5 euros for kids a day. The staff are not very nice at all they seem to pamper the Germans and the Dutch guests and ignore any British.
Bar staff are very slow, entertainment was terrible.
I will on no account visit this hotel ever again even if it were free the hotel is not 3 star its more like minus 3 stars.

| said: After reading detrimental reports from some visits, we can assure you that they must of been staying else where or fast asleep.
The rooms were more than adiquatly furnished and presented and kept spotless by the competent staff.
The food we found excellent with a wide daily variety of international cuisine.
Aircraft noise was expected but did not prove a problem.
All the facilities were well cared for and staffed.
We would rather have presentable plastic glass than slithers of glass under foot!
The staff were in generally multi lingual and exceptionally helpful.
We would like to thank all the staff for our wonderful treatment we would recommend this hotel to anyone.
WE HAD A BALL! we hope to be back again.

The staff were very ignorent!if you asked a question to them they would make you feel stupid and not helpfull at all. The food was basic,not alot of choice, and was cold alot of the time.my children lived on salad because the food was so poor. The snaks were a discrace. the restraunt was full of germans,, we were the only english in the room!!! was horrible. i would never go to greece again as the people arnt nice at all. The sunland and blue bay hotel was lovely but it was the staff that were not nice. George,,i heard was a nice man,,, he was the same as all the rest of the staff!! the staff would argue with eachother all the time,,verry scarey for my children. i will be making a complaint!!

| said: We have just come home from a holiday at the Blue Bay Resort.
When we arrived at the Blue Bay hotel we were told they were fully booked so we were taken to the Sunland apartments!!! They were not very clean, towels were old and hard, the bathrooms were tiny,old and we only had a trickle of water through the taps. We did have aircon.
We went with our children and as they were too old to have a family room we asked if we could have two rooms together, but.... they were not.
Food was ok, lots of pasta,fish,chicken and salad which we enjoyed. It was a little bit the same everyday and I would think two weeks of it might be a bit much!!!
We had a very quiet stay as we were the only English there!!!! I would say it is 3* [just] and we did have a nice quiet holiday.
The water park is great fun for the kids, ours loved it[12 and 15 year old boys]overal the Blue Bay hotel 4* as that is nicer,but on the same token its much busier.
Dont get excited about the entertainment its very bad!!!

Paul Parnell from Brighouse travelled to Sunland Hotel with
Sunset
on a friends holiday. There were more than 6 adults and 2 child(ren) in the party. The travel date was 07 2006 |

| said: What can I say about the food don't eat there. Ants in the cereals, lunch repeats of last nights meal, dinner get there quick if not eat at the Blue Bay it soon runs out. Food transported on the sooty pick-up that takes away all the laundry and the waste from the side of your toilets.
Maids were good, not excellent they are all top show. Under our bed we found things with May dates on them. The fridges were turned off so they stunk when opened then and took ages to chill down.
Location was not too bad if you want peace and quiet no one speaks to you if your English all dutch and German.
200 yards to the road to flag passing taxis down to town centre 6 euros.
Staff were totally ignorant apart from George on the afternoon session what a star. When complained about rooms that we had requested 4 in a row or on the same floor we were told we request was too late in coming we only booked it 11 months earlier so if you want adjacent rooms book now for the year 2010 you might get them.
Toilets were leaking and it got so bad that I turned the water off and it took them 3 days to fix it. When they did fix it it was running all the time so you heard the water going all the time another 3 days to fix
The entertainment was poor if your English everything was toward the Dutch. Night club on a all inclusive was poor Amstel beer 4 euros Smirnoff the same and the place had no air con
Would I visit it again Rhodes Yes, Trianda Yes, Sunland only when hell freezes over and Butlins shut down

| said: After reading various reviews about the sunland we were very worried.. what we found was the best of both worlds the Sunland was quiet and private and when you wanted to liven up a bit you walked over the road to the blue bay
The food and conditions in both hotels was really nice... the only one thing we didn't really like was that there were hardly any English people which made it difficult for the children to mix and the kids club was strictly for the dutch !!!! however as the days went by all the Brits from both hotels seemed to congregate .

| said: Just got back from hols last week, really enjoyed our stay.
hotel is good, rooms are of a very good standard for a 3 star hotel, and the hotel is very clean.
The food was much better than we expected, we all really enjoyed it, i was concerned before we went because i'm a veggie but there was plenty for me to have.
Only issues were the all-inclusive lager is not good, other drinks are fine though, and the entertainment at blue bay is for children.
Nearest good place for entertainment is at ideal kareoke bar about 5-10 mins walk

| said: Lower rooms, (which tend to be saved for British), are like dungeons.
The food is repetitive, non Greek, and often cold.
Rooms were cleaned 6 days a week by the maids, who were some of the few members of staff who actually spoke.
Entertainment was dreadful, and not especially suited to families.
Will not return.
