Helios Hotel - All Inclusive

I really don't understand the negative reviews on here, we're (currently, as of 8/7/2025) staying at Helios, and everything is more than good for a 3 star hotel. The staff are very attentive and friendly, they don't seem to be able to do enough for us, constantly checking we're ok and bringing our regular order of drinks to the poolside. (I heartily recommend trying the Raki, it's absolutely my evening drink-of-choice) There's a self-serve fruit juice machine poolside, too, but the plastic cups provided are a bit flimsy. (If you're going to carry more than two, I'd recommend repeat trips) I've seen terrible reviews about the food too, but we've had 6 meals here (arrived early hours of 7/8/25) and each day there's been different options for the protein, the salads/accompaniments are well stocked and there has, so far, been different options for carbs (rice, potatoes in various forms, pasta and fresh breads) The beach is clean, spacious and there are more than enough sunbeds, either in the shade, under a canopy or in the full sun. There's a free shuttle service from the hotel to the beach and back, five times a day, starting at 0900 and the last trip leaving the beach at 17.10 to return to the hotel. Today we walked back and it's a 10/15 minute stroll, should you want to leave outside the shuttle times. The all-inclusive wristband gets you unlimited cold drinks at the beach cafe, we haven't had to have a hot drink there; it's currently 40 degrees here! and the lunch selection at the beach cafe/bistro again has a varying selection of proteins and vegetables, along with fresh fruit. We have another 5 days here, and if the last two are anything to go by, we will have had a brilliant stay here at Helios. Yes, the room is basic, but we really only use the room as somewhere to sleep (the Aircon is a great help!) The shower water pressure is brilliant and fresh towels are provided daily.
