8/10 Very Good

Great location, but could have been cleaner!
The hotel evokes controversial feelings. Did we enjoy our stay there? Yes, we did. Would we recommend the hotel to others, will we be back? Not sure. it looks like that the hotel is in decline, and there are many signs of neglect, indifference and amateurism. It seems that the Barbarossa used to be loved and well looked after but this is not the case any longer.
We stayed at the hotel in November, during a very quiet period. The beach offers magnificent views of the bay and the mountains. The designated swimming area is larger than in other places which we had seen in Kas before. The area around the sunbeds was not clean: tissues, nutshells and cigarette butts were scattered around. There is plenty of hotel staff but many are walking idly, chatting or drinking tea all day -- the could have cleaned the area! Beach towels were available anytime with no restrictions. Our (elite) room in a villa offered a panoramic window with a sea view. The room itself was of average size, enough for two people max. The fridge was very quiet, which is great for those who can’t tolerate noise at night. The bathroom was of decent size with a pine-wood ceiling. We did not use the swimming pool due to the season but it looked clean and well-maintained. Food was good (sometimes delicious) and plentiful. Tea facilities are available all day. However the tables are never cleaned, and the tables/chairs are soiled.
