Belvita Hotel

Just got back from the most amazing 2 week stay at this hotel and I can hands down say that it is the best holiday I have ever had. We had stayed here for a week last year and it is amazing to see how much the place has changed in a year! All I can say is trust your gut and do not rely on reviews as I found a lot of them to be a lot different to my own personal experience here! The best addition to this hotel I would say is the animation team. Alena, Barbara and Magda are hands down some of the MOST amazing girls I have ever met and I can say with my whole heart that we have truly made friends for life with them. They are the most hardworking, kind and welcoming people ever and they will always make time to get to know guests and to make sure that everyone is happy and having a good time whilst also ensuring to keep everyone entertained whether it is the pool activities during the day, the entertainment for kids or the evening entertainment such as the movie quiz (I was very competitive). They also arranged nights out with the guests to Faliraki or Rhodos and these were the best nights out I have ever been on! It's definitely a good way to get to know people and to just have a great time with these amazing people! They were that amazing that we have already booked to go back before the season ends in October just so we can see these girls again! The food is definitely something that has improved over the past year, people will complain about the lack of options but I personally think that it really depends on your personal tastes, we found that there was always something you could eat but there were also a good number of restaurants within close walking difference. They also had the opportunity for the alacarte restaurant just outside next to the villas but unfortunately we did not use this during our stay. They also had a barbecue on the Sunday but again we did not use this as we decided to use that day to do some exploring of the island since that was the Animation teams day off. They also had pizza and bar snacks some days at several times. Do not be put off by the reviews as you will never go hungry here!! Big shoutout to the barman Leo who was also very lovely and welcoming to all guests and always had a fantastic story to tell, we even went out for drinks with him one night and it was so nice to chat and get to know him! He also made us special cocktails that you can't normally get from the menu on our last day and they were so good!!! Christos was also amazing as usual and always made sure to check on guests despite the fact that more often than not he would be working on his own during the evenings which would get very busy! Overall I would recommend staying here to everyone, even if just for the amazing staff because they are some of the most incredible people ever and I can't wait to be back in October to see them all again!

Belvita hotel (Former Loutanis) was great for us. The whole staff was great! Especially Philip, Nicolaus, Maria, lady who made pancakes in the mornings (we forgot her name) will stay in our hearts for a long time. Food was good and very affordable. Some visitors sadly didn't pay attention to their childrens' manners. It wasn't nice to see a child picking up a piece of cake, tasting it and putting it back to someone else to eat. The rooms were quite little, especially shower cubicle was very small. Hopefully there will be floor squeegee in the future because the toilets' floor was wet for some time after taking a shower. The closet in the room should have some shelfs so visitor could place clothes in there. Air conditioner worked fine and was included in the price of the hotel. The friendly and helpful staff made our staying very comfortable and therefore we didn't really mind the disadvantages of the hotel. Furthermore there was renovating going on at the hotel. Hopefully next time we come to visit Belvita, the furnitures in the rooms will be updated. Thanks for everything Belvita!
