Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Castello Village Resort offers a delightful experience, with many guests appreciating the amazing breakfast and cleanliness of the rooms. Some were even upgraded to rooms featuring a balcony with a jacuzzi and sea views. The hotel provides a well-catered buffet, entertainment with different themes each evening, and two pools, plus a grassy area with plenty of sunbeds overlooking the sea, although some guests noted that the walkways were starting to break up in places. With its proximity to the harbour, shops, and restaurants, the location is generally considered very convenient.

Balanced stay at this hotel

convenient location clean rooms local tavernas limited equipment loud entertainment small cups

My room was a double room sea view. The location was convenient to local tavernas. The staff ensured the rooms were clean.

The gym had limited equipment. The entertainment was quite loud at night. The cups in the room were too small for making tea..

mostly positive stay

shaded section pool area great selection food selection live music rusty chairs old chairs basic cleaning missing milk

i really enjoyed the pool area. i noted it had about twenty loungers and a shaded part. the main restaurant provided a wide selection of foods. breakfast had lots of option and was tasty. the hotel location was near many nice bars. i found live music at some of them.

the room cleaning was'nt good enough, it was very basic. it seems milk wasn't always topped up daily. i noticed some chairs on the terrace looked rusty. the floors didn't seem to ever get swept.
