Sacallis Inn Beach Hotel

The pictures on the web are nothing like the actual hotel. Owner was friendly when we arrived, however when i questioned the room (suppose to be self catering - no toaster/ not enough dishes or cups), needed to pay extra for air conditioning. He quickly changed his friendly behaviour. There are very few seats at the pool, which was snapped up by 7am every morning. There was a charge for using sun bed at the beach. The location of our room was beside the owners mother and hotel workers, it appeared as if we were staying in a part of the hotel where family / workers lived. I would not recommend staying in this hotel.

Very good small hotel , beautiful beach and crystal clear sea with great views, just across the road is a supermarket and loads of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. we chose a larger room with three single beds which was very clean and spacious , probably the most relaxing holiday we have ever had , We like to use 2 star bed with breakfast and prefer to use the local restaurants. The poor points with this hotel were the breakfast which consisted of stale cereals and very stale bread re heated which the cats even refused to eat , also available were hard boiled eggs cheese and ham , tinned fruit and yogurt which was ok for the first couple of days but after a week of the same became boring , we complained to the restaurant staff but were ignored . the fresh pastry was good though , not what we expected for 2 star , we just brought fresh fruit , cereal and bread from the nearby shop which were very good , Having to pay 6euro each per day for sunbeds on the beach was a shock! The kitchen staff were let loose with a chainsaw and proceeded to destroy the local trees and other plants in flower and promptly cut through the water supply tp our room. They also dug up and removed some of the better sunbeds right alongside us whilst we were trying to relax and leaving unattractive holes which were just left. We felt that we were just in the way probably due to the end of season approaching . We complained to the TUI rep, but so far they have just made excuses as to why the rep didn't come to visit the hotel or contact us properly until we got home and that the sunbeds were free around the pool which we would have been told by reception when we arrived. The first we knew about the charges was when we read the sign on the beach, and presumed this was just for people not staying at the hotel and other guests resorted to laying on the sand. Lovely hotel but with a little more effort from the owners could be much better and would ensure customers would return and stay to use the restaurant in the evening. We found some really fab restaurants just up the road and the local supermarkets were really friendly and helpful too.

The location is unbeatable if you want complete relaxation. The beach and bay are stunning. We stayed B&B which gave us the reliability to go out and visit other restaurants, however, the food here for lunch and evening meals was superb. Breakfast is continental and basic, but actually enough, although you can purchase full English. As you would expect of a two star, the rooms are basic, but as you don’’t spend much time in them, it wasn’t a problem for us. The hotel is kept clean in all areas. The thing that makes the difference with this hotel is the people, they are lovely and are happy to chat at the bar. Nothing is too much trouble. Service is delivered with a smile and if you try a bit of Greek, they are happy to help with pronunciation! Thank you Stamatis, Petia, Andrea, Mamma and David. We will return….

If you have read any of the previous negative reviews as we did before we came away please ignore them. I cannot disagree with them more. This hotel is a little gem. Yes it is only 2 star but I have stayed in worse 3 star hotels. All the staff are friendly, welcoming and happy. We got given a ground floor apartment annex due to there being 3 of us. Although initially disappointed not to have a second floor room with balcony and sea view our room turned out to be really spacious and very clean. It had a large terrace with a partial sea view when you looked over the wall. Our room was cleaned every day, with towels changed daily. You cannot beat the location of this hotel, right on the beach front. We ate breakfast every morning over looking the sea. The breakfast is a little basic and perhaps could do with a few more options but it met our needs. There are so many restaurants to choose from around the hotel and we didn’t have a bad meal all week. The restaurant attached to the hotel does really good food and I can recommend the prawn souvlaki. We will definitely return to this hotel when we next come back to gorgeous Kefalos.

Spent a week at the Sacallis beach hotel with my son. The rooms are basic but extremely clean and all you need for a self-catering holiday. This is a small family run hotel and from the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by the friendly staff, they all went above and beyond and made the holiday a delight for my 6 year old son. The restaurant is sensational and offers a variety of meals for all tastes. The beach front location is sensational and you really have no need to stray from the hotel, everything you need is on site! It was a relaxed and extremely enjoyable week, and at my sons request we will 100% be back!

Second year in a row to this wonderful hotel and we will never go anywhere else for our summer holidays. Three weeks of the best company, the best food and the best views. Stamatis, Angela and Petia alongnwith all the staff make you feel immediately at home and this year made an extra special effort for our wedding anniversary and my wife's birthday. The view is absolutely to die for, the ambience is relaxed and friendly and the location is perfect. I cannot recommend this hotel more. Fantastico.

We have just returned from a lovely 10 day stay at this hotel. Reading the reviews before we left I was very dubious about staying at this hotel and once we arrived all my worries disappeared. Yes this hotel is a 2* but it’s clean and we received a lovely warm welcome from the owner Stamatis. Rooms Rooms are basic but the shower is nice and powerful and always hot water available and they are cleaned nearly everyday. Rooms consist of a kettle, fridge Air con and safe is separate which you pay on arrival. Breakfast Continental breakfast which consists of bread, yogurt, fruit, tea and coffee, savoury pastries, ham and cheese, fruit juice. Restaurant on site Fantastic restaurant onsite called Antonio’s, the food is amazing a must try. Swimming pool on site but lack of sunbeds which was taken almost every morning but the beach is only a 2 min walk in front of the hotel. Great hotel, please don’t be put off by the bad comments like I said it’s a 2 * hotel but the family go above and beyond to make sure your stay is great.
