My score of one for the staff is unfair in a way as the reception staff and the cleaning staff were excellent, its just the arrogance of the bar staff that drags the score down. Unfortunately the bar staff seemed intent on spoiling everyones holidays by playing endless disco music at full blast through out the day. A request to turn it down was always done and lasted for as much as three tracks before it was turned up again. To my knowledge 4 people complained on a sustained basis and all were ignored. Even a direct order from the hotel manager after a formal complaint by me resulted in them playing quietly until he went off duty at 13:00 when the pool became a rave joint again. These staff were out of control.
That said the accomodation was excellent, and clean.
The beach - or whats left of it - is minimal and overtaken by hotel sunbeds at

Stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment on the ground floor. The living area is huge with 2 single beds, TV and air conditioning unit (payable locally) with bathroom off. There is a seperate bedroom with 2 single beds, air conditioning unit and bathroom off. Two bathrooms - wow - super for families. Air con charge = E160 for 14 days for both rooms. The rooms and complex were spotlessly clean and these standards were maintained daily. If you want a sea view room you will need to have a room on a higher floor.
The pool area I felt was a little enclosed with limited views but you soon get used to it. The pool bar did play music all day long 9am - 7pm and when we arrived my immediate reaction was that it was too loud. I mentioned it at reception and it was turned down. They also changed the type of music they were playing which had a heavy beat. Reception said they had never had any complaints before. Whether I got used to it, or whether it stayed down I'm not sure, but it didn't prove to be a problem through the holiday.
The complex is a very short walk from the beach and is on a quiet side of Pefkos. The nearest taverna Philosophia is above the beach and just a few paces away from the complex. It was also one of the best places to eat for traditional Greek food, but was the most expensive too. On site there is a pool table, E1.50 a game - be prepared if you have children.
Entertainment consisted of the usual Englishy things - keyboard music, karaoke, bingo. Not our cup of tea, but seemed to be popular with the majority.
Overall an excellent place to stay, well suited for families with children of all ages, near to the beach and restaurants/tavernas.

The apartments were in an ideal location, close to the beach and nearby shops, bars & restaurants.
The apartments were spotlessly clean, two lovely pools (had to get up early to reserve sun lounger similarly to any resort you go to during peak season so cant really complain!)
Rooms are very spacious and cleaned daily by very friendly and trustworthy maids. The staff at the hotel were really nice and couldn't do enough for you, especially the girls on reception and evening bar staff who made you feel very welcome.
I am returning to this hotel again this year and cannot recommend it enough.

We stayed at the Pefki Island Resort, Pefkos, Rhodes in August 2003 with 8 other family members then all went back again in August 2004 joined by our 8 month old daughter and we are visiting again in August 2005 along with all the family again. You may have guessed we love it there!
The hotel grounds are well kept and the rooms although sparse are immaculate and spacious with maid service 5 times week.
The hotel staff are very very friendly. Katrina who works on reception is exceptionally good at her job and goes out of her way every time to be as helpful as possible.
The bar staff are all good fun and the swim up bars have a relaxed and feel good atmosphere with music. Nicko's is very entertaining.
Last year we meet lots of friends and as a result there are 21 of us all returning as they loved it so they so they much be doing something right.
I have stayed in Spain, Portugal, Dubai and Vegas and places like that but there is something special about this place.

We visited the Pefki Island Apartments in July 2004. The pool area is just about big enough for the number of guests and you can nearly always find a sunbed, although the best spots are always reserved very early in the morning
