Venezia Resort Hotel

The most welcoming place I've ever stayed. The hotel is spotless, the food is varied and plenty of choice, even if it was almost end of season. Just got home an hour ago a d already looking to book for next year (been twice this year)

First the Pros: Hotel was very clean, staff friendly location was ok. The "Alcohol" was good. Free shuttle to the beach was great. Bus stop outside hotel took you straight to Rhodes town for 2 Euro. Cons: Hotel room was sub standard even though called a Superior room. The furniture was primitive and old, the wardrobe was falling apart there was no art on the walls or any attempt to decorate the room. The shower faucet was old and leaked all over the bathroom floor which was so small you could hardley move in it. There was no shelves or hooks to hang clothes on and no where to set down your soap or bathroom items. There was no soap or shampoos like you find in other hotels, just an empty soap dispenser you would find on the wall of a public bathroom. The food was often cold, they supplied a microwave so you could reheat it. If you were not a drinker (alcohol), the sodas were cheap copies of the originals and not good at all. Although the hotel was a short walk to Faliraki it was a dangerous one if you have any problems walking, the foot paths are rough and unsafe. The view from the hotel was ok although you are looking over a lot of unfinished or derelict buildings. Other guests complained that the rooms with private pools around the main pool did not get any sun. The online photos show hot tubs which look like they are outside the rooms when they are actually a flight of stairs up to the roof. We would not go back to this hotel.

Lovely hotel, we stayed here September 2023, check in was pleasant, stergos and his cousin (apologies I am unable to recall your name) were welcoming and friendly. We upgraded our room upon arrival. Food, we found the food to be of a very high standard, fresh bread daily from the Sarikas bakery, to comment on other reviews regarding food being cold, I did not experience this as a problem, if you like food piping hot there is provision for you to reheat. There is fresh salad, vegetables and different items for consumption each day I didn't find myself struggling for something to eat and I am picky with food, my only comment for improvement to the hotel would be to provide chicken at the Gyros snack counter. The burgers and pizza I ate here were very good. Staff overall were friendly and made us feel at home. The cleanliness around the Hotel in general was great and I always felt like I was in a clean well presented and organised environment wherever I went. Rooms, we had upgraded rooms, they were nice and clean, however I did find 1 of the 3 rooms I stayed in (upgraded for available periods so moved 3 times) very small, the first was adequate but not spacious and the last was huge which was a whirlpool room, we also experienced the rooftop jacuzzi room initially as part of our upgrades, whirlpool room for me was ok, whirlpool was covered and not heated, some whirlpools are however in the sun, the rooftop terrace was wonderful and very private with a heated jacuzzi which I enjoyed very much. When I book a superior room space is an expectation as included for me personally as otherwise I don't see what makes it superior, just my opinion. All the rooms I stayed in were superior and only one provided great space, I understand that all rooms will not be exactly the same but it does seem to be a difficulty of the hotel layout that they are not all of a same size and layout, it didn't detract from our overall experience just to set expectations for other travellers with what to expect. Evening entertainment is good, it doesn't run late which I liked, I go on holiday to relax not to party and faliraki centre is a short taxi ride away if you want lively at night, the only issue in the hotel with entertainment is space, if you want to sit at a table you need to get there early, the lagoon pool bar area is not extensive enough in size to accommodate everyone really although I believe there is new adults only area including bar that is opening in 2024 so this should help solve this issue. The hotel has won sustainability awards which I find appealing, and also continues to improve things for it's customers which I really like, overall it felt like a home from home and very civilised in behaviours, the hotel do not tolerate poor behaviour which I endorse. A quick note re evening dining for men, you are expected to wear shoes to dinner, daytime dining you can wear sandals, it wasn't a problem to us but this seems to present issue for some people. I didn't find

Hotel was amazing, the staff were super friendly, food was good, rooms and everything were clean. It was a nice location too, just out of the way enough to be nice and chilled but still close enough to trip into the town and the beach (and they offer a free transfer every day for the beach!). Overall a really lovely place to stay in Rhodes

Very warm and friendly staff and family run which is always nice, The mains things that stood out for us was the people are always happy to help, the cleanliness of the resort and we was never overcrowded (apart from trying to get a bed at one of the pools was a mission but we always managed). The food was very average but some of the deserts were lovely. There is a female waitress who was very friendly and always made sure your table was tidy and liked to have a laugh which was something we looked forward to every meal. The drinks were good (cocktails were lovely but strong as hell haha definitely had a bad head one morning 😂) You can hire a car for cheap in the reception of the hotel and the woman there is very friendly and gave good advice on where to visit on the island. Overall it was a lovely holiday and we would definitely come again.

The best experience in this hotel. I wanna thank Stergos and Anastasia for the warm welcome and good help. I would recommand to book the room with rooftop with jacuzzi. It was amazing! I would come back for sure.
