Despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback, a few minor recurring issues have been mentioned by guests:

  • Initial WhatsApp System: A newly trialed WhatsApp communication system was reported to need "tweaking" and some responses were not always helpful, with occasional food orders not arriving. However, this was noted as a very new system at the time of the review.
  • Reception Knowledge: One guest mentioned that the front desk was not always particularly knowledgeable regarding restaurant/beach club recommendations or excursions, leading them to do their own research.
  • Family Suitability: The resort may not be the best choice for families with young children, although larger rooms and suites can accommodate up to three or four people.
  • Cost of Bottled Water: Given that tap water in Mykonos is not safe to drink, some guests found the prices for bottled water at the bar and restaurant to be hefty, suggesting that more complimentary filtered water should be offered.

Also, the price was slightly higher than other ...
