This was the first time I had stayed at Finikounda, and to find this amazing family run hotel was a bonus. Every member of staff were helpful, knowledgeable and polite. A special mention to Rosa, Nikos, & Rafaella who made myself and my Granddaughter Grace (17) feel very special; nothing was too much trouble, thank you. We stayed on a breakfast and dinner basis, it was lovely; breakfast was plentiful, fresh and tasty. We chose our evening meal from the menu, the choice was vast; lots of Greek homemade dishes (we tried and ate everything!!). As for the restaurant, sitting under a grapevine, on blue and white rustic furniture, looking out over the water was both authentic and breathtaking; the view is incredible! The walk into Finikounda takes 15 minutes-ish, no more, and we found a footpath which cut out a lot of the steep bits! Anyhow, it's an easy walk, no problem, but take a torch for evening strolls. Our room was 406, what a view, top floor, it was clean, with fresh towels every day if you needed them?! There isn't a lift so we climbed a few stairs but again no problem as we needed to walk off supper!! The beach is down a slope which is lined with Olive & Lemon trees, a tap is available close to the beach and there are half a doz steps onto the beach. Parasols and loungers were available all day. The water is crystal clear, a few clusters of rocks here and there but there is sandy access into the water. The hotel pools, are spotless, there is a life guard who is very attentive. Its a quiet hotel, mainly couples; I can't fault it in any way. Grace walked into town a couple of times and she loved the simplicity of the hotel, it's just a cracking find and we will be back next year for sure. This is a family run hotel, the family actually built the hotel, they love the bones of the place; The Golden Sun hotel is highly recommended to those who seek, tradition, authentically Greek, peace, cleanliness, good food and views to die for.
