We were pretty apprehensive prior to arriving at The Pefkos Breeze Hotel due to some damning reviews on Trip Advisor re this hotel and the same hotel when it was named Thalia. We booked via Love Holidays and on arrival in the early hours at the hotel the man on reception was very welcoming and friendly. He gave us a cheese and ham sandwich also which was thoughtful. The reception was modern and very nice. We were allocated room 111 which was a ground floor pool view room. The room was the same spec as the reception and was very modern and looked like it was recently refurbished. Patio doors onto a small private terrace and then the pool Infront. The air conditioning was brilliant and in with the price. There was a large TV with some English speaking channels. Fridge, wardrobe, bedside cabinets, desk and mirror all in the bedroom. A good size . The bathroom had a large walk in shower designed like a wet room. All very clean. The staff had left a bottle of wine in the room on arrival for my wife's birthday which again was thoughtful. We had towels changed daily and cleaner attended daily if you wished. The 2 swimming pools were very refreshing as the weather was 32 degrees upwards every day. The restaurant does get busy at breakfast and evening meal and sometimes the buffet style dishes do empty quickly so I had to ask a few times for certain dishes to be replenished . There are no signs which you get in some hotels informing you what the dishes are. Sometimes we guessed. The food did become a little repetitive and the thing we found most annoying was all week no potatoes were served at all other then french fries which was odd for Greece. There are self service beer and wine taps in the restaurant for evening meal and you did have access at lunch aswell. However the rest of this time you could only get the all inclusive drinks from the pool bar. Alcohol is served from 11am. If around the pool alcohol is served in very small plastic cups which is annoying as after a few sips the cup is empty , so I doubled up sometimes which was not appreciated by the bar man who would shake his head and mutter under his breath. Some days he was ok but other days he was a bit grumpy. He told me he was the cousin of the owner and working there around his own night job, so I imagine he was just tired.haha. They only serve local spirits and beer. No known names. The sunbeds around the pool do not have cushions, just the standard mesh sunbeds. The lich time outside kitchen was good . Giros, kebabs, fries, salads were the regular foods on offer. You could drink in proper glasses in the outside eating area. We ate out on 3 occasions even though we were all inclusive and ate some lovely fresh seafood. Sunset restaurant which is a 10 minute walk from the hotel front to the right is worth a visit as is Philosophia seafood restaurant. The views over the sea are stunning! We paid £1200 all inclusive with Love Holidays for our 8 days all inclusive which included
