Katia Beach
(Apartments in Kassiopi)

| |||||||||
|
Just had a weeks holiday at Katia Beach. The location is very good 2 minutes from a really nice quiet beach. The pool area is okay but the bar was never open and neither was the reception. The whole place needs a good clean and so do the appartments. Only had our bins emptied once and towels and bed linen changed once and that was because we asked. Its about a 20 minute walk into Kassiopi which is okay.Will return to Kassiopi but not to Katia unless the standars improve.

| hi we are just back from kassiopi. stayed at katia beach. really quiet but kids loved it, even my 15yr old. staff really friendly. apt typically Greek basic but clean.The pebble beach was secluded and really clean and safe, a real bonus on your doorstep. The walk into kassiopi great to work off all the lovely food. Food at pool bar expensive and not great but loads to choose from just up the road.We are going back next year had such a great time!! | ||||||||||

| On arrival the locks were broken off two of the doors and could not be locked - not repaired until four days later. Live wires in childrens bedroom - not repaired until five days later. Air conditioning was regulated to 25 degrees. If you like blaring music until two o'clock in the morning then this is the place for you. No problem with the 10-15 minute walk to Kassiopi town even with two young children. We shall consider returning to Kassiopi but definitely not to Katia Beach. | ||||||||||

| My wife and I used the appartments as a base and did not use the on-site facilities at all. having said that,the rooms were spacious and clean and there was no problem with noise. the main critisism seems to stem from the trek into the town centre. For the elderly or people with children, it could pose a problem, but for the able-bodied it was a 15min. walk. | ||||||||||

| We stayed at katia beach from 9th -23rd July. Our room (studio) was a good size, the balcony was facing away from the pool which meant it was a very quiet location. it was also out of the cun all day so it didn't get too hot - but would still recommend getting a fan especially for the nights. I was worried about the walk to town but in fact it wasn't too bad. In the day it was too hot to walk but if you got up early you could avoid the heat and it wasn't a problem. At night it wasn't a problem. the walk is well lit and takes about 20 minutes-it is along a road but it isn't very busy. The pool at Katia beach is pretty basic. Quite strict on what you are allowed to do. For the first week we didn't pay for sunbeds but they introduced it in the second week. 2euros per sunbed cover but then you get a free drink at the bar?!You can hear some noise from campsite during day but not really a problem. All the staff were friendly and nothing was ever a problem. I personally wouldn't go back there. This is due to the walk as if you wanted to stay out late it seemed along way back! I went to kassiopi last year and would recommend it to anyone. Have a nice holiday. xxx | ||||||||||

| Stayed at Katia Beach in Sept 2003, nearly had a heart attack when bus dropped us off down that very steep bank thinking about how we were going to get up it to go into town, but you get used to it and by end of holiday it was no bother, and anyway you need the exercise after eating, drinking & doing nothing all week. Beaches in Kassiopi are not the best but found a lovely beach when you come out of Katia Beach turn left and keep walking there is a lovely beach there with nobody on it, very nice. Absolutely loved Kassiopi, it is the most relaxing and friendly place I have been to. We loved Illusions Bar and the very sexy handsome waiters in Janis Restaurant, any single ladies out there go and have a look you will not be disappointed. My favourite bar was Costa's with the Greek dancing the dancers were brilliant and also very nice!!!. Cant wait to go back next year, dont know if I would stay at Katia Beach as it is a little far out of town but the pool area was lovely so you never know. | ||||||||||

| We would return to Kassiopi but not Katia Beach. The complex and staff are nice but the location was the bad thing about it for us. Once you get on to the main road the walk was long but ok to the village. It was walking back at night in pitch black with young children along the single track road with the blind bends that was dangerous. I would advise anyone to hire a car as this makes life much easier. You do get charged for the sunbeds but in return you get free drinks equivalent to the price paid. The prices at the pool bar were more expensive than the village and service was slow as the barman serves drinks and also cooks the food! Katia would be seen occasionally but usually she was telling people off. Things like no splashing in the pool (the water is expensive!), only 2 lilos in the pool at one time and not to wear Tshirts in the pool. We made a lot of friends at the complex and after heading out for tea we would meet back at the pool bar for drinks. They will stay open as long as you want although one night we got back about 10pm and it was all shut and in pitch black. The nearby local beach is made up of very large pebbles and was not suitable for young children to enter the water. We went on a beach BBQ boat trip and was horrified to realise we were heading for another pebbly beach. In the end we hired a car to go to Sidari to enjoy a sandy beach. Water there is very shallow and safe for kids. Hi to everyone we met and those of you who got our Email address is should be ntlworld.com (not co.uk) Hope to hear from you | ||||||||||

| Stayed at Katia 1st 2 weeks of Sept. It is quite a walk into Kassiopi but it is a quiet location. The 2 bar staff, Alex & Alexis were excellent, nothing was ever to much trouble.We would recommend the apartments to anyone.The only fault was with other holiday makers putting towels on the sun beds at 8am in the morning, it was worst than Germans !!!! | ||||||||||
