We recently stayed here for two nights with our children (aged 6 and 9). The apartments are arranged in three blocks around a courtyard area. Within the courtyard is a small, unheated swimming pool, seating area and hot tub. The apartments look modern but also feel very crammed into the space and facing each other meant a distinct lack of... More

It's not often you find a 5 star hotel that will let you bring your dog on holiday so this is a rare gem. But don't be put off thinking you'll be surrounded by dogs. When we stayed, our small spoodle was the only dog there. The facilities are VERY clean, it's right opposite a beach (which is probably the... More

We stayed four nights here from the 21st December 2011. It was in a perfect location, just across the road from the beach of Pahia. The hotel was clean, modern, well equipped and quite honestly, perfect! The hosts were more than helpful and despite what some information will tell you, there is secure parking on site. More

We recently stayed in this apartment. The room is presented well and within walking distance to the wharf. We were disappointed the room we were given was next to a pub /backpackers and had loud music playing till 1am. More

We stayed in a 2 bedroom Admirals View unit and also a 1 bedroom Admirals View unit. Both were well presented, great views over the bay, and reception staff were very helpful and obliging. The car park is secure but a bit tricky to manouvre. The location is within walking distance of the shops, restaurants and wharf. We would stay... More

My sister treated us to our 5 night stay at Edgewater Palms and we shared a superbly fitted out two-bedroom apartment at the front of the block, which meant that we had wonderful views out over the Bay towards Russell. The apartment had everything you would need and felt bigger than some houses in the UK! In fact, I could... More
