How anyone can rate this resort less than 5 stars is beyond me! Beautiful beach surrounded by pine forest - so tranquil and relaxing. Staff were excellent, breakfast was very good, room and bed was super comfortable. We had dinner twice and lunch on 3-4 occasions - whilst it is more expensive than local taverna's, the quality is also much better. A lot of folks mention the access road and downgrade their score, but this is not in the control of the resort. Yes, 5.5Km from 6Km is rough forest road, there's no denying it, but that's the reason the hotel is isolated and so peaceful. Only real improver would be to restrict to Adults only. We spoke to management and they are considering the change.

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel very much. It is modern, beautifully designed hotel located in a lovely bay surrounded by pine forest. It is great choice for people who are looking for peace and relaxation. It would be better if it becomes adults only hotel as there are no activities for children anyway and there are many kids-oriented hotels which would be more suitable for families at my opinion. Hotel room is excellent, nothing else to wish for really. Beach area is great, clean beautiful sea, fantastic view, very comfortable sunbeds, water bottles provided daily, very attentive and nice personnel, everything was perfect. Food was good, breakfast options were fine for us, we also had couple of times lunches and dinners at the hotel. We also explored other dining opportunities at the island and were not disappointed. Road to the hotel from ferry port is a bit bumpy, but we kind of used to it after few days :) Overall it is beautiful hotel and we would happy be happy to return here especially if it becomes adults only. Thanks a lot to entire team for making our holiday one of the best we ever had!

All stuff are gentle, positive, thanks for all.Just come here, enjoy your time and you forget how the time passes...

After spending 10 days at Vathy Cove, I’d like to share my honest opinion: The hotel is a boutique-style property located in a stunning, secluded cove with crystal-clear water. The sea-view rooms are beautiful and generally clean, although the daily housekeeping was quite superficial. The road to the hotel is rough – about 40 minutes on a poorly maintained track. We knew this when booking, so it wasn’t a surprise or major issue. However, the biggest letdown was the food. Breakfast was very poor: old pastries (not even heated, and no oven on-site to do so), no hot milk unless specifically requested – and even then, it’s heated using the coffee machine’s milk frother or in the microwave, often arriving after 30–40 minutes. Omelets took over 30 minutes to prepare. Lunch and dinner options were extremely limited and overpriced considering the poor quality. Meat was often tough and full of gristle, bread was stale, and we were once served a salad missing its cheese – the staff simply said they’d run out. Even worse, I once found a hair in my salad. The soups were disappointing too – more like warm liquid cream than actual vegetable soup. Fresh fish required pre-ordering a day in advance and cost €120/kg, which is steep for a seaside location – especially considering the fish was not well cooked. There were no real side dishes available. Everything seemed to be fried: a bitter-tasting pita likely made in the same pan as the meat, frozen nuggets, and fries. One day we ordered a fruit platter and received something fresh and nicely arranged. The next day, it looked like scraps from the kitchen – yet we were still charged €22 for it. When we asked why, they simply said they ran out of fresh fruit. We were traveling with a child, and the owner promised to add basic child-friendly options like rice or mashed potatoes to the menu – but nothing changed during our entire stay. Ordering even simple dishes like salads or risottos could take up to two hours, and they often brought the wrong food. Overall, the food was overpriced and very low quality. Only 2–3 waiters seemed properly trained – the rest were inattentive and disorganized. Sadly, I don’t recommend Vathy Cove. While the location is gorgeous, the poor food and service overshadow the beauty of the place. There are plenty of better hotels in Greece where you can enjoy both the view and the experience.
