Super vacation, great hotel *
Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A AThe good reviews on holidaycheck led us to spend our two-week vacation in Hotel Ocean Beach on Thassos. We were not disappointed. On arrival, we were warmly welcomed by Koula, the hotel owner. The hotel is very familiar and you feel totally at ease with everything.
Stavros (the husband of Koula) always had time for you and was always present. The damage to our air conditioning in the room was directly taken care of.
The whole hotel area was wonderful, clean and up-to-date we have booked a room in the new building/room and got 314. A very large, wonderful room with a huge round bed, LCD TV with three German programs, two two seats sofas and a table, fridge/mini-bar, modern and large bathroom with hairdryer, as well as a huge balcony with basketwork furniture (two chairs and a table). Also on the balcony there was a, mounted on the wall, pullout laundry drying rack, so that you can dry your bathing clothes wonderfully.
The view from the balcony was fantastic: left side view of the sea, straight into the olive groves and right on the mountains. The rooms were cleaned every day except Sundays. There was a large terrace where you could eat breakfast. The breakfast was for Greek standards very versatile and plentiful. There were two different kinds of sausages and cheeses, various cereals, tomatoes, cucumbers, Feta cheese, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, juices, tea, coffee, several kinds of jam, honey, cake... It was always refilled, so that there was never something missing. Elvira, the good soul of the hotel, made sure in the morning that you had a good start to the day.
The pool is based on the number of rooms (30) quite large and never crowded, so there was no morning rush, in order to get a sunbed. There is a pool bar, where you can get drinks and ice cream, in the afternoon from 13:00 o'clock you can also have something small to eat. In the afternoon there were homemade cakes (delicious) with a nightcap for 3,95 euro. Unfortunately during our stay there wasn't a barbecue because too few guests registered. A shame, we would have really liked this. On
Thassos there are very many good taverns. Some of them are directly on the beach, just amazing. We ate very good everywhere. The island of Thassos you should explore in any case. We had a rental car for ten days and have seen a lot. We loved this hotel and the island felt very comfortable and would spend our vacation there again at any time.
