Several guests reported experiencing inconvenience due to the wifi issues, either not being able to connect or having a very slow connection. Additionally, some guests found the attitude of staff towards their budget (as students or with limited means) to be snobbish or surprising. While the hotel does offer private jacuzzis, guests noted that these were not up to par with expectations.

Spa

Epavlis Hotel & Spa offers spa services but according to some guests, the spa is not worth the price as there is "little service" for the high cost. Some guests were disappointed that the spa was closed during their stay and they were not informed ahead of time. However, massage treatments can be booked and there are amenities such as an indoor pool, sauna and hammam available. The gym is small with outdated equipment. The indoor pool was said to be cold though the jacuzzi was pleasant with both indoor and outdoor options available. Despite some mixed reviews, the hotel itself is clean and aesthetically pleasing with wonderful sea views from some spa areas. Breakfast is also said to be delicious with a nice selection.

Pool

The Epavlis Hotel & Spa offers a nice pool with a view of the sea, although it's not very large and can be quite cold. However, the surroundings are always clean and there are plenty of facilities at the hotel, including an outdoor heated pool with loungers and a pool bar. The indoor pool also comes with a sauna and steam room. While some guests have complained about the cool temperature of the pool or the small size of the pool area, many have enjoyed the lovely pool, its view of Kamari and the peaceful location away from the crowds. There are also several smaller pools available and the pool bar is a great place to relax with a drink. Guests should note, however, that they must return pool towels at the end of each day.

Beach

Epavlis Hotel & Spa boasts a great location just a short walk away from the main beach in Kamari. The black sand beach offers breathtaking views and is superb for open sea swimming. While swimming shoes are necessary due to jellyfish, the hotel offers a shower upon return from the beach.

The hotel itself is situated in a calm area with warm and welcoming staff, just a few meters from the beach. Additionally, there are many restaurants, shops and bars within walking distance. Guests will enjoy clean rooms with stunning ocean views from the rooftop. Overall, Epavlis Hotel & Spa is the perfect location for a beach-focused holiday.

Family

If you're planning a family trip to Epavlis Hotel & Spa, it's important to note that children may not be welcome in all parts of the hotel. However, there are specially designed family rooms that are perfect for families of up to 5 people. The size of the family rooms is definitely a plus! Although some reviews indicate that this might not be the most kid-friendly hotel, others mention excellent facilities for children and adults alike. Despite the lack of specific mentions of family activities, there is an "ambiance familiale" that makes for a pleasant stay. Overall, if you're looking for good value, spacious family rooms and don't mind a potentially less child-friendly atmosphere, Epavlis Hotel & Spa could be a great option.

Guests should beware of potentially old or broken equipment in the bathrooms.

Heated Pool

Guests have praised the clean facilities and the heated pool at Epavlis Hotel & Spa. One of the pools is heated and covered, making it a great option for an enjoyable swim even during colder months.
