Anna Maria Paradise

Absolutely fantastic hotel, beautifully designed, great food and drink. Staff are absolutely amazing..so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The whole place is spotless clean. Room amazing and cleaned daily. Pool towels available at 50 cents daily. It’s totally exceeded our expectations!!this place has 5 star qualities. First time visitors but will definitely be returning

Having stayed with my wife for 7 days in September 2024 found the hotel pleasantly clean and modern, staff were fine (although maybe need a bit of a lift), manager came across as not very pleasant hence the staff a bit subdued, maybe that's just typical of the greek authoritative management style ? but didn't bother us. The pool area isn't very large hence beds are pretty close together but is kept clean and tidy. The breakfast is nice and good variety to choose from. Drinks were reasonably priced and a wide range of brands on offer. The location wasn't really ideal for us outside of the resort and on a busy road, however traffic iss not really that noticeable and if you like walking then that's fine. Overall the hotel is fine and we enjoyed our stay, however due to location not sure if I would return but I would recommend this hotel to anyone for a first visit to Pefkochori.

The hotel is located on a very busy and noisy road. The sun bathing area is small and the decking is outdated, bouncing around every time someone walks past. Sun beds are surprisingly comfortable but left out in all weathers and can be rather damp after a storm. The food at breakfast was good but limited. People needed to queue for the coffee machine. Staff were very friendly and polite apart from the hotel owner, who took a dislike to me for wanting the room we had booked. Unfortunately it wasn’t available, He didn’t think we needed such space for a couple. We were placed into a small outdated one overlooking some noisy air conditioning units. After speaking with our tour operator we were given a two bedroom bungalow which Also had an annoying electrical problem with a fuse box next door which gave us some sleepless nights. The beach was a ten minute walk away albeit shingle but the sea was lovely and warm and the water was clear. So in a nutshell if you are looking for a quiet relaxing accommodation this is not the place.

Mixed feeling about this place. Was hoping for much better after reading many reviews. The Manager is a misery but so are many other staff to be honest. They’re not being rude they just don’t make a lot of effort. They get on with their jobs well and work very long hours. The food in the buffet for breakfast was good. Wide choice of hot and cold food. Would prefer more options for fresh juices. They need another coffee machine. Buffet in the evening is mediocre at best and no drinks are included in the price of €20 for an adult. The pool is old and tired and it’s falling apart from the bottom up. Quite a few guests (me included) cut their toes on the bottom of the shallow end where the small tiles have come loose. Told the manager and nothing was done. Will report this along with photos to Jet2. The rest of the pool area was nice, lots of sun loungers which are comfy. Nice bar area with excellent food that’s made fresh. Won’t be back and wouldn’t recommend. Much prefer the Greek Islands where (from my 44 years of experience) are cleaner and the locals much friendlier. Pefkohori as a resort isn’t great. It’s sliced in two by the main road. (Old town up a hill on one side and the pretentious and over priced beach bars on the other) Chanioti is much nicer but still not great.

We had a wonderful ten day stay at Anna Maria Paradise this August. The rooms were comfortable and very clean. The food was outstanding and the bar staff were really friendly. Thomas was a fantastic host and gave us great advice and guidance on day trips, car hire and events.

Spent two weeks at this gorgeous hotel. The rooms are lovely, pool & bar area are stunning, comfiest sunbeds & plenty available. Lots of choice for breakfast & fabulous food at their onsite restaurant, Girea Elia. The hotel is about equal distance to Pefkochori & Hanioti, 20 min walk either way or €5 in a taxi & there are also shortcuts to the beach. This is a family run hotel but the owner is miserable, he needs to smile more often but his sons who work the bar are a real credit to him, they were so lovely. I’d recommend this place, just dont expect a welcome from the owner.
