Amazing family hotel — we had a fantastic vacation! Food & Restaurants: The hotel offers an impressive variety of food options. Breakfast is rich and diverse, and there are 5 different restaurants including Asian, Greek, steakhouse, seafood, and the main buffet restaurant. One of the biggest advantages: there is no need to reserve tables. You simply arrive and are seated immediately — no waiting lines, even when the hotel was fully booked. The food quality was excellent throughout the resort, and both the adults and the children genuinely enjoyed the meals. During the day, food is also available at the water park area, including delicious wood-fired pizzas, burgers, and grilled chicken breast. Soft drinks and alcohol are included and available throughout the entire day and evening. Pools & Water Park: There are many pools spread across the resort, so nothing ever felt overcrowded. There is even a huge Olympic-size swimming pool and an additional semi-Olympic pool. The water park is excellent and perfect for families. Surprisingly, even at 100% hotel occupancy, there were almost no lines for the slides. Entertainment & Activities: Every evening at 9:00 PM there are family-friendly shows and performances, which the kids really enjoyed. During the day, the entertainment staff also organizes activities for children. However, the schedule and activity information were not communicated clearly enough, and we only discovered some of the activities by chance afterward. Improving communication about the daily activities would make the experience even better. One thing I personally missed was some entertainment or live music for adults later in the evening (after 10:00 PM), rather than only children’s shows. Overall: We truly had an amazing stay. The food, the atmosphere, the beautiful beachfront restaurants during sunset — everything felt relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommended for families.
Need it to relax and the Spa was the best decision. Mariana was really nice and I love my manicure . Massage were exactly what I need it . Definitely I’m coming back
Lyttos Beach Review – A Very Good Family Holiday With Plenty to Love (and a Few Things to Improve) We’ve just returned from a family holiday at Lyttos Beach and, overall, we had a really good time. Like many people reading TripAdvisor reviews, I rely heavily on them when booking holidays, so I try to give an honest account of both the positives and negatives to help others decide whether a hotel is right for them. The short version: if you’ve got children, especially younger ones, there is a huge amount to do here. The water park is fantastic, the staff work incredibly hard, the entertainment is excellent, and the food is generally very good. There are a few frustrations, but none were enough to ruin what was a very enjoyable holiday. The Water Park The splash park and water park are brilliant. There are loads of slides and flumes and, during our stay in May, there were virtually no queues. We could pretty much walk straight onto every slide, which was a refreshing change from some resorts where you spend more time queuing than sliding. A word of warning though: it is loud. You’ve got water crashing everywhere, music playing, kids screaming with delight (or terror, depending on the slide), whistles blowing and general holiday chaos. If you’re after peace and tranquillity, this isn’t the spot. If you’ve got kids, they’ll think they’ve died and gone to heaven. The lifeguards and security staff deserve credit too. Every now and then a child decides the rules are merely “suggestions” and starts climbing up a slide the wrong way. The staff are quick to spot it and deal with it. Sunbeds One thing that pleasantly surprised us was the lack of a sunbed war. Around 9am we could generally find beds wherever we wanted. The exception was the circular pool near the beach, which seemed to attract the dedicated towel-placing Olympic athletes. Beds there were often gone before 6:30am and appeared to be disappearing earlier as the week went on. The water park doesn’t open until 10:30am, so it’s usually very quiet beforehand with plenty of available beds. Food & Restaurants The food was one of the stronger points of the holiday. The Taste of Asia restaurant was excellent and definitely worth booking. The Meat Grill was also very good. The main buffet restaurant is exactly what you’d expect from a large all-inclusive family hotel: busy, bustling and occasionally chaotic. There was always plenty of choice and we never struggled to find something for everyone. One thing I particularly liked was that despite how busy it gets, the food quality remained consistently good. A small tip: most people enter the buffet and immediately hunt for seats in the first family dining area. Walk right through to the rear seating section and you’ll often find a much quieter area with plenty of tables available. And yes, every meal seemed to feature the distant sound of a plate smashing somewhere. Consider it part of the soundtrack. Drinks & Bars This was probably my biggest frustration. If you’re happy with house beer, house wine or soft drinks, you’re fine. These are available on self-service stations around the resort, including the water park and restaurants. However, if you want spirits, cocktails or pretty much anything else, you’ll often find yourself trekking to the main pool bar or hotel bar. The issue isn’t just the walk; it’s the queues. At peak times there were only a couple of bartenders serving large numbers of guests, and waits of 5-7 minutes for a drink were common. The main hotel bar was particularly slow. Part of the problem is that guests queue at the bar for drinks that are available from nearby self-service stations. If the bar focused solely on cocktails and mixed drinks, the queues would move much faster. We visited in May and the beach bar was closed because it wasn’t yet high season. This felt odd given how busy the beach area already was. It’s not a deal breaker, but it’s definitely an area where the hotel could improve. Rooms We stayed in a family room for five with two separate bathrooms, which was fantastic for a family our size. One thing to note: these rooms are all on the ground floor and have either garden views or private pools if you’ve booked a sea-view category. If you’re expecting a balcony, you may be disappointed. The housekeeping team were exceptional. Our room was spotless every day and the cleaners worked incredibly hard throughout our stay. One issue we encountered was with our garden area. There was a gap in the bushes separating our courtyard from neighbouring areas, and several guests decided this meant it was acceptable to use our patio as a shortcut. We even had people walking through our private area and hopping over walls. It wasn’t a huge problem, but it definitely needs addressing. Entertainment The entertainment team deserve huge praise. They work ridiculously hard and seem to operate at maximum energy from morning until night. The usual activities are all there: aqua aerobics, games, kids’ clubs, water polo and plenty more. Special mention to Millie, Adam and Lucky, who were brilliant throughout our stay. The evening shows were genuinely excellent and among the best we’ve seen at an all-inclusive resort. The circus show, pirate show and acrobatic performances were all fantastic. The only downside is the amphitheatre itself. In theory it’s a good venue, but I suspect it becomes very crowded during peak season. Seating is limited, the marble benches become uncomfortable after an hour, and despite the hotel’s efforts to encourage plastic cups, guests regularly bring glassware into the arena. We saw multiple drinks knocked over and glasses smashed during performances. The Pushy T-Shirt Sales A slightly odd one. The entertainment team sell personalised children’s T-shirts which are a lovely idea. However, at €22 each, they aren’t cheap, especially if you have multiple children. We politely declined every day and were then asked again the following day. And the day after that. By the end of the week I was beginning to wonder whether there was a secret commission leaderboard somewhere backstage. It’s not a major issue, but it did become a little tiresome. Extras & Spending Money The on-site supermarket is well stocked but expensive. The arcade is tiny and, frankly, a bit of a rip-off at €2 per game. Understandably it’s there to make money, but it doesn’t offer great value. Parents should factor in additional spending for arcades, souvenirs, the market stalls and those personalised T-shirts because the costs can add up surprisingly quickly. Mosquitoes Bring repellent. Seriously. The combination of water features, gardens and warm evenings creates ideal mosquito conditions. If you’re sitting outside at dusk without repellent, you’re effectively volunteering as an all-you-can-eat buffet. A Few Final Points The pool areas can become slippery, particularly around the main pool, so the phrase “don’t run!” will become part of your daily vocabulary. The hotel is huge and takes a couple of days to learn your way around. My advice? Locate the toilets early. Future-you will thank you. Unfortunately, on our final day two of our three children became quite unwell and spent most of the day being sick. We can’t say with certainty what caused it, and they are normally very robust kids, but it’s worth mentioning for completeness. Finally, the guest mix was interesting. We met lots of lovely British families and had some great conversations. Some other guests seemed less inclined to exchange even a simple hello or thank you. Whether that’s cultural differences or just holiday mode, I’ll leave others to decide. Overall Lyttos Beach is a very good family hotel with excellent facilities, a superb water park, great entertainment, hardworking staff and plenty to keep children occupied from morning until night. There are definitely areas that could be improved, particularly bar staffing, drink availability and some of the additional costs around the resort. However, none of those issues outweighed the positives. Would we return? Yes. Would I recommend it to families with children? Absolutely. Just pack mosquito spray, comfortable walking shoes, a sense of humour and the patience to queue for the occasional cocktail.
We just returned from a week's family holiday between 28/5 - 5/6/26 to celebrate our daughter's 9th birthday and had a truly fabulous time. Ms. Fotini (Kalypso Taverna), Ms. Michaella and Mr. Pambis (Thalassa Restaurant), Ms. Eleftheria (Asteri Bar) and Mr. Yiannis (Security) were truly amazing with their unparalleled hospitality, warmth and service. We were also very appreciative of Mr. Giannis' and Mr. Konstantinos' (hotel management) attention throughout to ensure our stay and experience was as pleasant as possible. They were visible daily fixtures amongst all the hotel guests to ensure the smooth operation of all the hotel's services for everyone. The hotel's facilities were first class, from the restaurants on-site (which did not require pre-booking and you could visit as often as you liked), to the water park with the lazy river which we loved, the gym - perhaps the best equipped I've seen in a hotel and all the pools, there was nothing left wanting. We will definitely go back and would highly recommend to any family.
The resort looks amazing, has some fantastic facilities, is clean and well maintained. We had booked an inland room and were very pleasantly surprised to have a pool right outside. The rooms were clean with comfortable beds but the shower was awful, no pressure. Lots of pools and sunbeds and no need for an early morning dash! However, would be nice if all the sunbeds had the padded cushions not just the ones around the main pools. The staff all work very hard and acknowledge guests. The hotel does feel very busy at peak times and lacks the service offered at cheaper hotels. The main restaurant and bars are not able to cope very well and there are not enough staff with waiting times at the bar often in excess of 20 mins in the evenings. We also had an issue with the fire alarm and lack of guidance for guests. This was addressed with the mgt team along with a few other issues and they were very apologetic and keen to listen to feedback so that they could implement changes. The animation team were all amazing and really made the holiday. Special shout out to Ben, Millie, Lily, Magic Mike and Adam. They were great during the daytime and evening and interacted really well with guests. The shows were great but it’s a shame the amphitheater isn’t big enough to accommodate everyone! We went with older kids (17&19) who were kept busy with the fab facilities, activities and engagement with the animation team and said it was their favourite holiday.
We stayed at Lyttos Beach in a beautiful suite 1003 with a private pool by the sea, which made our holiday feel very special. The beach was nice, with a gradual entrance to the sea, and we enjoyed peaceful walks by the water in the evenings. The whole resort offers so many facilities — several pools, a great waterpark, kids’ club, shops, bars, restaurants and entertainment areas. It is a very active, lively hotel, perfect for families with children. The food was one of the biggest highlights. There was a great variety every day, everything tasted fresh and delicious, and both adults and children could always find something they liked. We especially enjoyed the themed dinners. We also loved the spa. We booked treatments together and the massages were amazing — very professional, relaxing and exactly what we needed. The spa staff were kind, welcoming and made the whole experience feel special. A big thank you also to the animation team. They were friendly, energetic and created a fun atmosphere for the children. My son really enjoyed the kids’ club, water polo, water slides and activities. I would definitely recommend Lyttos Beach to families looking for a fun, active holiday with great food, many facilities and plenty of entertainment for children.
Hotel was very nice, clean and well presented. Everything ran smoothly, staff were professional and friendly and very efficient in the running of the hotel. Our 2 bedroom family room was well presented, the layout didn’t suit our family dynamic as much with 2a and 3c as the main room is a double bed and single in one room and the second room is twin beds, but may suit other families and wasn’t at the fault of the hotel. Lots of food choices to cater for most people with individual food stations for pasta/omelettes etc, regular fresh cooking, regularly topped up food. The pools were excellent, lots of pool areas with ample sun beds available at the various pools. The pools with the slide were brilliant and the kids had a great time, there were more slides than we had seen on the photos and the lazy river was a real hit with all of our family! The main pool was fab with entertainment centre and main pool bar area. The cocktails and drink list was brilliant for all inclusive and the amaretto seaside was a particular favourite for us!! The onsite amenities such as the supermarket and shops were great to grab souvenirs and may have been a bit pricey, but I don’t think over the top. The supermarket had most things you could need if you’ve forgotten anything. My husband visited the gym and was really impressed, best gyms he’s ever been to in a resort. He also ran most mornings along the beach front and said this was great too! We feel like we barely scratched the surface of what this hotel had to offer and were really impressed. For us, the only downside was how noisy the corridors outside the room were in the evening. We had a ground floor room and everyone heading to the lift passed by our room. The doors could be better soundproofed (we heard nothing inside the room from neighbouring rooms) but the other guests could have also been more respectful, with kids squealing and stomping around and adults shouting down the corridors and ‘allowing’ kids to knock on doors as they passed them without consideration for people in bed. Highly recommend to anyone for a family holiday

Alexandra is very good thank you
Excellent sports facilities, a fab water park with flumes, on the beach, a good mix music entertainment for adults and amphitheatre for families/kids, clean and comfortable air conditioned rooms... what's not to love? We particularly liked the fact we could lap swim in one of 3 pools, 50m or 25m outdoor and I think 25m indoor. We chose the 50m every time and had a lane to ourselves. The pool water temperature in late May was absolutely perfect for us. We also played a lot of table tennis, there are 9 tables in an indoor hall. Unfortunately the Animation team chose to take the 'organised' table tennis off the schedule this week in favour of daily volleyball and plenty of football making it a bit more tricky to meet club standard players to have a decent game with, although we did find 2 couples today who met that criteria. We have also enjoyed joining on with the organised Water Polo sessions each day. There's a choice of 6 restaurants so if you want to escape the all-inclusive diet of screaming kids with rattling crockery and cutlery, then head to the smaller beach restaurant where they'll freshly wok cook your choices with noodles or rice for lunch or fresh fish on the BBQ for dinner. We're yet to visit the local snorkeling spot but apparently we can get the local tourist train and we've selected a day to do that when the wind drops and goes more westerly so hopefully the sea will behave a bit better.
Beautiful hotel and friendly staff. Good food and animation team was great. Highly recommended.
Really good experience, enjoyed every minute of it, Joanna was excellent????
Fabulous relaxing massage. Ask for Joanna vary professional an excellent experience
