Hellenia Yachting Hotel & Spa

The food we received for the Titan party certainly wasn't what we expected from an Italian restaurant. It was generally very bland and not too much variety. It was quite annoying that other non Titan parties seemed to receive better food food than us. We were very pleased with our room, although room service was a bit varied - they generally forgot to leave something [towels, toilet rolls, shampoo etc]. Reception staff were a bit grumpy!! However - overall we had a decent holiday, but, not as good as we were expecting

I'm don't know where the one star reviews come from, but it certainly isn't a four star hotel. The food we received for the Titan party certainly wasn't what we expected from an Italian restaurant.

Our holiday with Titan was very disappointing and staying at this hotel was pretty bad. The food was bland and overcooked and was more like a school dinner, the hotel was literally falling apart, the frontage was roped off forcing you to use the carpark entrance which was littered with broken, dangerous and uneven floor pavers. There were no sunbeds on the beach, the umbrellas around the pool were all tied up and the sound of hammering and someone using an angle grinder made sunbathing impossible. The room was clean but there were no draws and a lack of a wardrobe or somewhere to hang your clothes was at a premium, think we had 6 hangers over the safe. When numerous people in our group, including ourselves were overcharged for bottles of wine we never had, the reception staff took the amount off the bill without an apology, they were really quite the worse we had ever come across. Needless to say we will not be revisiting and will not be travelling with Titan again.

After a tour of Italy this was our final destination, and what a disappointing end to a great trip. The 2 stars are for location which is fantastic, right on the beach, and for our room which was at the front overlooking the sea with a decent size balcony, although the furniture was dated and uncomfortable , and a parasol would have been useful. However that is where the positives end. The room was adequate but was very basically furnished with what looked like 20 year old IKEA units, the bathroom was well appointed but the shower was a little small. The aircon was useless, we couldn’t get the temperature below 25 degrees which made for uncomfortable nights, it sounded like it was on but it was very ineffective The outside area was very disappointing, the pool looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for weeks and it put us off using it, the pool surround was in dire need of a refit as the tiles were lifting and warped. There were parasols which were tied shut so the only shaded seating was under the balcony, it was as if we were there out of season and they hadn’t bothered to set everything up. Breakfasts were average at best, the so called cooked option was undercooked bacon and watery scrambled eggs. There was also some building and renovation work going on so there was a fair bit of noise and disruption, we were not forewarned nor was there any explanation or apology from the hotel. Our biggest bugbear however was the attitude of the staff, particularly the reception staff. They were not at all welcoming, never greeted us or engaged with us voluntarily and were very unhelpful whenever we asked about excursions, buses, taxis etc. When checking out the guy on the desk just took our key without a word then thrust their tourist tax bill at us, they seriously need some customer service training. All in all potentially a great hotel in a great location but let down by poor management and dismissive attitudes of most of the staff, we felt like we were in the way and weren’t made the feel at all welcome. We were expecting so much more from a four star hotel, we would not recommend it and we wouldn’t book here again, a disappointing end to a great trip.

Where to start….. Food, Holiday to Italy we imagined would include Al La Carte in the evening. Most certainly was not a cheap holiday. We had signed up for half board with Titan travel. Food was very poor quality, including tinned peas, canned carrots. Meat was dry and tasteless. Some of it looked as though it was reconstituted, tasted like it too. Desserts had no cream or sauces. Felt that the hotel were skimping, cutting corners where ever they could. Our room although newly decorated smelt of damp. We left our balcony doors open. Still smelt of damp. Worse though was being in the middle of a building site. We had work being done above us in the penthouse suite. An angle grinder being used next to the pool, part of the edge of the roof they were trying to remove, actually fell off, almost with one of the builders. And I’m assuming a function room that was being refurbished, again next to the pool. Paths and entrance road was a dicing with death experience. One of our group actually did fall on the broken tiles just outside the hotel. Very badly bruising her face and neck. I could go on……..
