FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is the pool heated?
The main infinity pool is NOT reliably heated (weather dependent). Only specific private pools in suites and the baby pool are heated to ~24°C.
Is the beach private?
No, Karavostasi beach is public, but the hotel has a dedicated section with free sunbeds and umbrellas for guests.
How far is the nearest town?
Perdika is about 4 miles (10-15 min drive) away; Parga is about 14 miles (30-40 min drive).
Are pets allowed?
No, the hotel is strictly no-pets.
Is the All-Inclusive worth it?
Yes, especially for the 'Dine Out' option and because a la carte prices (and even water) add up quickly otherwise.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a well-equipped gym with cardio and weights, plus yoga classes on an outdoor deck.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
Book the 'Dine Out' experience to eat at a local taverna in Perdika—it's included in the Premium All-Inclusive.
- ✨
The funicular can be slow; taking the stairs down is a nice workout, but walking up is brutal.
- ✨
Ask for a 'pillow menu' if the standard pillows are too soft/hard—they actually have one.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'Swim Up' rooms often have no gate between the terrace and the pool—dangerous for toddlers.
💡You have to pay for water at dinner if you are on Half Board (not All-Inclusive).
💡The funicular stops running at night; you might be walking if you stay late at the beach bar.
💡Privacy in 'Swim Up' rooms is non-existent; neighbors and passersby can see everything.
💡The drive from Preveza airport is a solid 1 hour 20 mins on winding roads.
