| said: Me my wife and her brother in law with his wife and our children we decided, to go for holidays at Summertime Hotel because of the entertainment and facilities for the children as they advertise in the brochure.
Unfortunally we have been disappointed from our choice.
They have no facilities at all. No receptionist, no cleaning staff, and no entertainment at all(unless you like watching music channels all day).
They do not serve food at all, the bar is closing at 23:00. Many people have complained during our stay, because they had only once a week line changing.
I went to the reception to ask some more towels and we saw the receptionist crying. We asked her what happened and she said to us that the owner’s wife started shouting at her for no reason. The next day we saw the owner’s wife shouting at my son (5 years old). I asked her why she was shouting at my son and she replied to me that "the boy was throwing water in the grass".
I believe is the worst holidays we ever had
Rude staff and arrogants.

| said: We have just returned after a week at the summertime,we were very dissapointed as the brochure states,entertaiment for all the family,food,gym/sauna,crazy golf etc.There is none of this.The pool is okay but other than that there is nothing that is advertised.The staff stopped us from eating fresh fruit at the pool,even though there is no food offered other than crisps.This was our 2nd time in Sidari but would not return to these apartments,rooms were dirty,bathroom was filthy.The beds were the worst we have ever tried to sleep on (rock hard).We spent all our time at the Planet Pool Bar which was a million times better,good food,great pool,great staff and only a 2 min walk from Summertime.

| said: What a lies in the brochure!!!!!! Me and my wife we booked this holiday direct with the hotel. They promised us an upper new apartment with view and instead of that they gave us a ground floor with no Terrance and a dog's house view. We spent a fortune for 2 weeks in July hearing a dog barking all night. The hotel advertises internet access, when we ask for permission to use it they send us 1 mile to an internet cafe. We asked for the gym and sauna but it wasn’t working. They advertise crazy golf and they charge 15 Euros for half an hour play in 6 broken holes.
They serve no breakfast any lunch or dinner. They advertise dietary menus but probably they mean crisps, because that’s the only thing they have.
There is no entertainment at all unless you like watching TV all day.
We had linen changing once in 2 weeks. When we complaint for all the above, the staff were arrogant and rude to us.

| said: i booked summertime because it stated in the brochure regular entertainment (this is because i do not like dragging my children far in the night so i tend to stick to the entertainment on site) also i liked the crazy golf idea. there was no entertainment out of 14 days and no golf to play. my children were bored and i was upset because they just wanted to go home. we did find them entertainment in the centre which is about a 15 min walk but nothing starts until after 10.00pm which is not good when you have little ones.

| said: We have stayed in Summertime hotel in the last two weeks of september. We had 3 times a week linen changing and daily cleaning. The apartment we booked was big enough for my family. We were a bit worried when we booked from the comments and reviews but we had a great time in the hotel. The hotel is based only 150 meters from the beach and very close to the town. They had three times a week entertainment like Rat Pack,Kareoke nigh & Rick Shaw night.
The food was very nice presented and the prices were quite cheap. We had almost every day breakfast at the hotel and my children snacks in the afternoon.
The crazy golf was great fun for the kids I would defently reccomented.
I would defently go back to the same resort.

| said: Stayed at the Summertime Apartments for a week at the end of August 08 with hubby and 13 year old daughter.
Although I booked and paid for a 1 bed apartment, we were shown to an extremely dark and depressing studio without being told how the electric worked ( its via a key) or anything else
The studio itself was old fashioned, grotty and carried an overtley musty smell and had barely enough room to swing the perverbial cat
In saying this the pool is great, very clean and well maintained and the bar staff were excellent
Food is well cooked and well presented
The immediate area consist of a wide variety of bars and tavernas and the real hub of Sidari is just a five minute walk away
All in all an enjoyable week - would go back to the resort but would defo give the Summertime a miss

| said: The apartment we stayed in was really dark. The room it self was not as clean as it could have been. The rooms appeared to be quite old fashioned in style and appliances.
The maids came in and did the basic cleaning i.e mop the floors and empty the rubbish bins nothing else. The beds were changed about twice a week and towels were changed also.
We had heard that the apartments were excellent but on arrival we were quite disappointed as we have stayed in much brighter and cleaner rooms.
We did not have a lot to do with the staff really, they just appeared to sit around the pool area chatting to each other and people watching.

Excursions are twice a much as everywhere else so we booked them elsewhere! The reps were extrememly unhelpful and clearly disintereted in being enthusiastic but other than that we had a excellent holiday.

| said: We had a one bedroom apartment and a studio in the new apartments and a studio in the older apartments.
I must say that our one bedroom apartment had a lovely sized bedroom and was very clean. We had a balcony from the bedroom and also one from the living/sleeping room which had the sun for most of the day.
The maids came in every day to clean and always changed the towels. Our friends in the older style studio asked to be moved after a few days because their studio was dark and did not get any sun, which after change over day the rep was able to do for them.
The swimming pool was lovely and was always kept very clean. Getting a sunbed was never a problem. Make sure you try other pools in the area as well as you are allowed to use the pool at most apartments. The poolside snack bar served drinks, ice creams and snacks for most of the day and everything was reasonably priced. We very often had a cooked breakfast to start our day which was very good.
The entertainment was not very good unless you are into watching films, but alot of the bars in the area do the same thing. Obviously if you want more action then head into Sidari itself.

| said: these apartments are kept very clean - towels changed on a daily basis. you have a large fridge, kettle and two oven hobs. the apartment itself was quite dark and cool. pool area is nice, with very good changing facilities. we went in june and the resort was very quiet, so there was only two staff on, one in the reception and one in the bar area (who sits and watches your every move around the pool - which i found very off putting).

| said: We found this complex to be wonderful! the staff bent over backwards to make our stay in this resort one of the best we have had for a couple of years. The area was quiet with little entertainment but the complex was under ocupied so some of the entertainment was not available. Reps great with a good knowledge of the island. Rooms great a/c at under £2:00 a night, cleaned every day with fresh towels and all the mod cons.
