We had the most amazing stay at Arina Beach Resort. Our seafront room with private pool was absolutely perfect — waking up to the sea views every morning was just beautiful. 🌊💙 The room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed, and having our own pool was a real luxury.
The all-inclusive was fantastic, with plenty of choice at the restaurants and lots of drinks and snacks available throughout the day. The food was varied and there was something for everyone.
The resort itself is gorgeous, right on the beach, with beautiful views and lovely pools. The staff were friendly, welcoming and always happy to help.
We used buses to explore the local areas - it was at times mani. But the staff were friendly and helpful.
We honestly didn’t want to leave — it was one of those holidays where you wish you could stay forever! ❤️
Would definitely recommend Arina Beach Resort, and if you can, go for a seafront room with a private pool — it’s worth every penny! 🌴🍹☀️
Everything was amazing , the staff were really fun and lovely, and about the food it literally was so amazing and so delicious. About the animation club they were amazing and doing their job so well.
Eleni did a wonderful job! She was very gentle, attentive and made sure not to miss any area. Her touch is soft and relaxing, and she really makes you feel comfortable and well cared for. I enjoyed every minute of the massage and left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. Thank you, Eleni, for such a lovely experience!
the anamation team are amazing so interactive and fun and have a great relationship with Luca and has made it an amazing experience in the hotel and brought the fun.
The hotel is lovely i am not sure i would rate it 5 star but still very nice. The only entertainment around the pool is a 30 min aqua aerobics in the main pool thats all. We like to have a bit of music around the pool but thats the only time they have music on around the pool. The pools are set out in areas you have the main pool and then you have the waterslide which are great, the childrens pool and a small adults pool. Its only a few minutes walk to the main pool so it not really a problem. If you just have younger children you would probally stay in the one area but we had mixed age group. There are plenty of chairs around the pools people do not really get up early to put towels on which is good. We did have our towels removed one day while we were at the main pool so I would advise to leave a book or bag on the towels so there can be no confusion that there is no one on them. The sandy beach and sea is great for children, its shallow and the waves are great. We were all in different room. I was in the main hotel while the other rooms were by the children's pool. In the family there is no privacy when it comes to stepping out of the shower as there is not a bathroom where you can shut the door its all open which can be difficult if you have teenagers, but fine for little children. The room in the main building does have a bathroom. The staff there are really friendly and helpful especially the young lady who works in the pool bar in the children's area such a lovely lady. The entertainment at night is fine. They have a little mini disco at 8.30 then the entertainment follows shortly after, some nights better than others. There are plenty of seats but not sure you would been able to see everything in some of the seats, but some very nice seating areas. Food is as you would expect, good choice and plenty of it. It's a lovely place to go for a family holiday but I think probably more suited for younger children as there is nothing outside of the resort you would have to get a taxi
