Sunshine

I gave a 4 but it is rather 3.5 due to cheap solutions in the room / apartment. First of all, all of the reviews with cruel staff preventing to enjoy your holiday are probably false, written by youth who has no limits and care towards the rest of the guests. Pros: good location very close to beach and supermarket comfortable rooms, big swimming pool helpful management ( the boss lady helped to take my luggage upstairs, a heavy 20 kg) Cons: cheap bathroom solutions, moving toilet seat, cheap shower with sticky curtains stikcing on you. I thought I got for a small kitchen (cooking) possibility but my room didn't have it, maybe it was my fault at reservation but it was an issue to me struggling with moving painful teeth (bad implants) and prefering eating in my room as solo female traveller. Still for the price I paid (low enough) it was a good place and I would be happy to go back but this year it was not available via uk travel sites. It is safe, the view to the pool is nice, the pool is big, lovely and well maintained, the guest were not loud (not much partying youth), there were no issues to extra payments for any reason or deposit left on arrival. No one disturbed me, I truly can't understand the negative reviews. The aircon (extra but I was aware about it) worked well. The whole experince was rather good and truly relaxing. I would go back by the way but I couldn't in 2024 due to lack of offers on UK sites.

Came here last year and was spot on. Same again this year. Came 2 weeks later this year and you can tell the difference. As a few of the guests were younger drinkers and clubbers last year. Very quiet this year. Just how we like it. The mattress was firm. Kettle and 2 ring hob fridge freezer. Plenty storage. Plenty hot water for the shower. Safe was €17. Air con €70 for the week. Stayed on the top floor. Very quiet away from the pool. Lovely balcony. Apartment was very spacious. Hotel could not do enough for us. Cleaners come in most days if not every day. Security on at night times. Angela at the pool snack bar is very efficient and friendly. Very good food and good value for money. Pool snack bar open from 10am daily until late. Local mini supermarket is 5 mins walk. The main strip is 5 mins walk. You can’t hear the noise from the strip. We hired a scooter for €20 a day from drive pro rentals which is located en route to the strip. Canny hire place and very competitive. Well worth a stop and enquire. The strip caters for every one. Little train in to Zante is €8 each way. Lots of sight seeing en route. Kalimaki is 5 minute drive away and approx 20 minutes walk. Smaller version of Laguna. Lots of shops restaurants pubs and clubs. Beach is €15-20 for 2 sun-beds and an umbrella. Although many food places offer free sun-beds in return for buying a snack. So well worth shopping around. An all round decent clean family oriented hotel with a great pool. Some rooms have been refurbished. I think there is more planned in. I enquired about a toaster and was given one to use during my stay. So much to do here. Go karting water sports horse riding etc. I have read the comments on other reviews. Try it for yourself. We did and came back. Rita who runs this place is very clear. If you have an issue speak up and they can fix it. If they don’t know about it how can they rectify it. Definitely returning next year.

Was pleasantly surprised at our stay at Sunshine Hotel after other poor reviews. Stayed as a group of 4 and found the hotel a convenient location near the strip and beach, yet still relatively quiet. Highlight of the hotel was the pool area and bar, always able to find a sun bed and Angelina was a star always making sure we were looked after.
