Xenios Dolphin Beach Hotel

"The hotel location is lovely, it's a small hotel with a beautiful beach setting. The room are clean but old fashioned and in need of serious updates. The best thing about my stay apart from the views was definitely the amazing staff who were all friendly, cheerful, helpful and hard working. The food was ok but repetitive, I am vegetarian so there seemed to be a limited choice but always plenty of fresh salads, puddings were less appealing, jelly or moose or water melon each meal. There are two nearby shops, some nice restaurants but nothing else to do nearby. No local public transport but some good bookable excursions. If you want a quiet peaceful holiday this is perfect."

"Pros: beautiful location, close to the beach, quiet, clean but sometimes worn towels every day. My points: very dated rooms with hard mattresses, small shower area with no showerhead hook, no hot water in the morning, only after 10 minutes. The beach was half sand, half gravel and unfortunately was full of cigarette butts and junk. The food was the same every day, Brussels sprouts 4 times a week. It is our 6th stay in Greece and we always look forward to the Greek cuisine which was fantastic at every accommodation. In short, very mediocre hotel."

"Xenios Dolphin Beach is a calm three-star hotel. The main building houses the lobby, front desk, and restaurant & bar, which is accessible from outside. There is also a swimming pool with sun loungers and parasols in the central area, surrounded by several bungalows with 67 guest rooms. I would recommend it as an ideal place to enjoy your holiday, honeymoon, etc., if you want to avoid crowded tourist areas. Possidi is a paradise, trust me. And if you plan to mostly sunbathe or swim in the sea, the beach is situated right next to the complex. As we travelled by car, we also appreciated the huge parking lot behind the hotel. I honestly don’t really understand the negative reviews about the staff. They were all super friendly, mostly young seasonal workers who worked really hard to make sure we were satisfied — and they definitely succeeded. I would personally like to thank the Front Office staff, especially FOM Panagiotis, for arranging pizza for us before our early departure; receptionist Julia, who was incredibly helpful when we decided to extend our stay — she even converted the price into our currency so we could easily understand the actual amount; and the F&B staff Virginia, Paul, Antonis, Spyros and many others, who took care of us during mealtimes and kept us supplied with fresh beverages. I would also like to thank the housekeeping staff, who kept our room perfectly clean throughout our stay. The choice of meals was not huge, but it was certainly sufficient. The only real disadvantage you may encounter is the fact that your holiday eventually comes to an end and you have to return to the reality of everyday life. 😊 5/5 – would definitely come back! ⭐️"
