Apsenti Couples Only

We arrived at Apsenti Couples Only Resort and immediately knew we had chosen exactly the right place for us. We were greeted by Stefanos who was welcoming with a relaxed demeanour, the right amount of humour and a big smile. He explained so many things about the hotel, the island of Mykonos, the variety of areas to visit, the bus timetable and recommendations for a cruise and a great bike/hire car company - George’s. We were given a choice of 2 rooms but we chose 'Love Nest 1' because the sea view was amazing and the private balcony, just gorgeous. Our bags were taken to our room by Aggelos with no fuss or bother. The room was lovely. Airey, bright, light, perfectly clean and smelling fresh. A really comfortable double bed, crisp white sheets and a light bed cover which was perfect. The air con worked brilliantly however we used the big ceiling fan most of the time as it was very powerful. The safe in the wardrobe was key operated so no messing around with codes to remember. The bathroom, although small, was immaculate and had everything you would need. The shower was simple to use and worked really well, there was always plenty of hot water and the water pressure strong. Thank you to Tamara and Kobe who took care of all the housekeeping. Every time we returned to our room everything was dazzling, it smelt good, there were plenty of fresh towels for us and everything was pristine. We ate breakfast at the hotel every morning because it was so nice to sit and enjoy the light breeze under the shaded bamboo in such a peaceful setting. There was plenty of choice on the menu, we tried various dishes like the ‘full English’ style cooked breakfast, the spinach and feta omelette, yoghurt with fruit and walnuts, boiled eggs with salad with toasted bread. I asked for a surprise breakfast on the last morning and was presented with a traditional Greek dish - outstanding. All wonderfully cooked by Maria the cook. We were served by Lida the waitress most mornings. A very sweet, graceful young woman who was chatty, elegant and funny. She recommended several quiet beautiful areas to visit and restaurants to try - they were all magnificent. Thank you also to Mirto, a delightful young lady who also served us breakfast and some daytime snacks too. The light snacks menu is reasonably priced and the food we tried was delicious. The pool was absolutely stunning, not a hint of salt or chlorine. It was sparkling clear and clean thanks to the maintenance by Aggelos. A handsome, quiet young man who seemed to do everything.....the maintenance, the pool, the gardens, clearing tables, carrying bags....and all so smoothly and quietly. As an extra note - we hired a small car from George’s Hire Bike/Car Company via the hotel. Brilliant car, fantastic customer service and a angel of a man who we dealt with from the company. Our car was damaged by someone else whilst we were having lunch at a local restaurant. I was stressed with the situation and the thought of losing ou

Beautiful, quiet resort outside of the hustle and bustle of Mykonos town. Amazing staff who are so friendly and helpful, delicious food and impeccably clean! The bus leaves from directly outside the hotel if you do want to go to Mykonos, but we spent most of our time enjoying the relaxing atmosphere! A brilliant stay!
