We stayed at this wonderful hotel for 5 nights in early August 2026 for a relaxing break after travelling around mainland Italy for just over a week. What a relaxing time we have had! Firstly we have an airport transfer booked to take us to the hotel the hotel. This worked really well. We were warmly greeted upon arrival at the hotel and we're able to check in early for a small fee of €60. We found our room, a suite, easily. It consisted of a lounge area with 2 made up sofa beds for the children, a hallway with bathroom off of it and then a bedroom with walk in closet. Both rooms had a balcony. The ac was great. Loads of storage space to unpack. Comfy beds. Coffee machine. Kettle. Teas and coffees. The only thing I could fault with the rooms were that there wasn't enough drying space for clothing/swimwear. We made do with clothes hangers off of tables and chairs on the balconies. We then went and found the pool. There is only the one with a separate shallow section in the corner. Main part 120cm deep and child bit 60cm deep. We never had any problems finding sun loungers by the pool. Thee is a pool bar that opens at 10am. Great selection of all inclusive drinks. There is also a self service drinks machine in the bar area that does chilled water, lemonade, coke zero, coke and lemonade. A small walk down past the pool through the gardens takes you to the beach. Again, never had to fight for sun loungers. There is a bar just before the beach, but it's not open every day. There is however the same self service drinks machine there too. On the way to the beach is the kids club hut. My boys (8 & 10) went every day, at least twice! They loved it!! No need to book a slot. Just turn up during open times. It was a very relaxed environment with lovely staff. Lena, Leila and Dalila. Thank you for entertaining the children! They really enjoyed the crafts, puzzles playing on the swing, playing with jenga, guess who and most importantly Uno!! The entertainment staff over all were great. Live music/singer most evenings. Kids entertainment at the amphitheatre several evenings. Kids film nights. Quiz nights. During the day there were sports tournaments (I discovered molkky), aqua gym and various fitness classes during the day too. The food in the all inclusive restaurant was top class! Lots of variety across all 3 meals. Even for the fussiest of children. Dinner doesn't open until 7.30 which we thought was going to be a struggle with the children, but it really wasn't. By the time you've finished at the pool, gone back to your room, showered and dressed it's time to go to dinner. There is always a table of pastries and bread type things out near the bar between meals if you do get hungry though. The evening entertainment doesn't start until 2115 which again is really late, especially for the kids. As dinner is so late it is manageable. Thank you everyone at Himera for a lovely break. I would definitely come back.
