Palmon Bay Hotel & Spa

Location

Make sure there are no parties in the Hotel pool as it is very noisy

Stunning hotel, with great facilities, having the private pool and beach area was lovely. There was a nice pool bar as well. The room was a nice size with a good bathroom ( unfortunately no bath). Breakfast was tasty and lots of options. Would definitely stay again.

The staff was unfriendly, both at the reception and at the beach/pool area. It felt like you had to do backflips on the beach just to get a waiter to come and serve you. The only exception was a young waiter with glasses who worked at the beach bar—he was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. He deserves special recognition.

We were charged €25 per day for our 3 kg dog, which would be understandable if pets were actually allowed to access the areas you would expect (except the restaurant, of course). However, our dog was not even allowed to lie on our own towel on the sand at the beach, while a cat twice his size wandered freely around the beach every day without anyone saying a word. The inconsistency of this policy was very frustrating. The biggest disappointment, however, was the parking situation. Despite there being around 10 empty parking spaces inside the hotel’s parking lot, the staff refused to open the barrier for us and instead directed us to an unpaved parking area. That is simply unacceptable for a hotel of this standard.
