Hives from Private Pool
The location of this Hotel is excellent. Directly on the beach and includes access to their beach lounge chairs with umbrellas. It is adjacent to a coastal hiking path to other beaches. Numerous great restaurants, bars, even a mini-mart are at the front steps to the hotel. No taxi or car needed.
We had a water-front room with a private pool and patio. The view was amazing and fun to watch the mega yachts and beach people come and go, while still having decent privacy.
My wife enjoyed using the private pool. I did not - sitting on the pool deck, I dropped one leg into the pool and within minutes that leg broke out into hives. I showered it off and a few hours later decided to test the other leg because I didn't want to waste all the money spent on such a nice room. The other leg also broke out into hives. I informed the front desk, but they offered no compensation or solution. (Note that while in Greece, we stayed at 2 other properties with private pools and neither caused me any issues).
The room itself was spacious and very comfortable.
I would stay there again, but i wouldn't spend the extra money for the private pool. Note that my wife did not have any reaction to the pool water.
Sadly, I needed to wear pants for next 10 days of my vacation because my legs looked like they had some terrible disease. The burning and itching also interfered with my sleep. I am writing this review 11 days after the hives started and they still are not completely gone.
