Alykanas Beach Grand Hotel by Zante Plaza

"It’s the worst hotel we’ve stayed at! We were in a ground floor room that had no curtains, just a net so everyone that walked past could seen in our bedroom. We put a sarong over the window to try give us some privacy (see pic) the room we had paid for a superior which this wasn’t and when we queried it the receptionist just shook her head. We had damp in our room Which progressively got worse due to the bad weather we had. Everything felt cold and damp. There are no drawers in the room. The dining area doesn’t have a sufficient number of tables so people had to queue for one with their plates and cutlery in hand. The food was often cold, meat not hot enough and no where to heat up as no microwave provided. Dogs were allowed in the dining room to beg for food. The only bar was outside where people smoked and whilst we were there this was flooded. If you needed the toilet you had to use one by pool which was never cleaned often. There is nowhere to sit and relax at night so had to sit in the uninviting reception to play cards. We were charged to use the pool towels, this hotel is a 1 star at best and TUI should remove it!"

"This hotel is great the people are great lovely and cannot do enough to help you and make sure you have a nice holiday, I would love to go back, but unfortunately I have mobility issues, and the mattress are for me impossible for me to sleep on, and I am in pain because they are so uncomfortable. I will be returning to Alykes but in a different hotel ."

"We love Greece. We travel a lot so no this isn’t me not getting Greece! Shocking reception staff, both rude , so not the best welcome. Weather bad so not enough seats to eat meals, ended up taking food to wet gazebo area or rooms more than once. Wasps and stray dogs everywhere. Good points, the Greek bar man was nice. The chefs did a good job considering and food was nice, nice beach right on the front. Basically it has potential but no one cared enough that it was your holiday that you may have waited a year for and just expected you to like it or lump it. Tui also I’m shocked at you , not once did you visit the hotel, I saw jet 2 reps a lot!"
