Apollo Beach

Our Best Holiday to Date! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We have had the most amazing stay at Apollo Beach Hotel in Faliraki and can honestly say this has been our best holiday to date!

We travelled with TUI after our holiday was organised by Peter Goord Travel in Plymouth, UK. Everything was really well organised. There was a TUI representative available at the hotel every day, which was reassuring as there was always someone there if we needed any help or advice. We also found the TUI app really helpful throughout the holiday for keeping everything organised and having useful information to hand.

The staff at Apollo Beach have been absolutely fantastic throughout our stay, so friendly, welcoming and helpful. The cleanliness of the hotel was spot on too. Our room was cleaned daily and the whole hotel was kept extremely clean and well maintained throughout our stay.

One of the best things about the hotel for us was its location right on the beach. This was actually our favourite place to spend our days. The sea is so calm and incredibly clear, absolutely beautiful for swimming and relaxing. Being able to walk straight from the hotel grounds onto the beach was perfect.

The hotel has great facilities. Apollo Beach has a lovely rectangular swimming pool and there were plenty of sunbeds, with most situated on the surrounding lawn area. We also had access to the facilities at the sister hotel, Apollo Blue, and actually found ourselves using their pool more often. It was quieter, the pool was larger and we really liked having the sunbeds surrounding the pool. When we weren't at the beach, this was where we particularly enjoyed relaxing.

We didn't use the indoor pool or gym during our stay, but we did have a look and the facilities appeared great. There is also a small shop within the hotel, which is really convenient for picking up anything you need without having to leave the hotel.

The location is brilliant. You're only around a 5-minute walk from the main Faliraki strip, so it's perfect for evening shopping, bars and nightlife, while still being able to come back to the hotel and relax. We also played mini golf one evening while we were out shopping, which was good fun and another nice little activity to do in Faliraki.

There is so much to see and do in Rhodes and we made the most of some fantastic trips. We visited Rhodes Old Town and the Palace of the Grand Master, which was fascinating, and also visited Anthony Quinn Bay, where snorkelling in the beautiful clear water was one of our favourite experiences of the holiday.

We also took a boat excursion to Lindos, which is absolutely beautiful and definitely worth seeing. Just be prepared for the heat! It was extremely hot when we visited and it's quite a steep walk up through Lindos if you want to reach the top, so comfortable shoes and plenty of water are a must. The views and surroundings are stunning though, and we're really glad we experienced it.

We usually like to eat out quite a lot when we're on holiday, but the food at Apollo Beach was so good that we really took advantage of our all-inclusive. There was plenty of choice and we genuinely enjoyed eating at the hotel.

We also took part in the hotel's Greek Night, which was fantastic. The food was lovely and there was an opportunity for everyone to join in with some traditional Greek dancing, which made for a really enjoyable evening. Greek Night was included free of charge for all-inclusive guests, which was another great addition to our stay.

We did venture out one evening and ate at Opera Restaurant in Faliraki. OMG, the food was absolutely delicious! I had the sirloin steak Diane and it was amazing, yum! Definitely worth a visit if you fancy eating out one night.

The only thing we would improve is the drinks included within the all-inclusive package. Not all cocktails are included, and personally, when you've paid for all-inclusive, we feel the full cocktail menu should be available. For example, mojitos were around €9 each despite us being all-inclusive. It would be great to see this changed in the future.

That small point aside, we've had an absolutely fantastic holiday. Beautiful hotel, amazing staff, great food, brilliant facilities, a fantastic beach, perfect location and so much to see and do nearby.

We would happily return and would definitely recommend Apollo Beach to anyone visiting Faliraki.

Our best holiday to date! ❤️🇬🇷

We returned from this hotel on 24th June 2026 and overall had a fantastic stay.

One of the biggest positives was not having to get up early to reserve sun loungers. After all, you're on holiday! Even if you wandered down around midday, there were still plenty available. Having the loungers spread out on the grass with lots of space around them was another huge bonus and made for a much more relaxing experience.

The staff worked incredibly hard throughout our stay and we always found them friendly and pleasant. They work long hours and deal with all sorts of guests, so a little kindness goes a long way. A special mention has to go to Olga, who has worked at the hotel for 31 years and serves in the smaller bar during the evenings. She was absolutely wonderful – friendly, welcoming, and clearly loved by guests. We spent many evenings sitting at the bar chatting with her, and she always made us feel welcome. She is a real asset to the hotel.

The outdoor areas were so good that the pool never seemed particularly busy, which was surprising because the pool itself was excellent. It was a great size, not too deep, had easy-access steps all the way into the water, and was a perfect temperature with no cold-water shock when getting in.

I can understand some of the comments about the hotel catering more towards the German market. During our first couple of days, we hardly heard any British accents. That wasn't a problem at all, as everyone was friendly, respectful, and quiet, but I do enjoy chatting with fellow British holidaymakers from time to time.

If I had one minor criticism, it would be the food. With a few small adjustments, I think it could appeal more to British tastes. For example, one morning baked beans were available at breakfast, which was great, but on other days breakfast felt a little bland without them. That said, even if you're not usually a fan of all-inclusive food, there was always something to eat, whether it was beans on toast, chips, or various other combinations. The cocktails and drinks were excellent throughout our stay.

The location was brilliant. The hotel sits right at the start of the strip, meaning it stays nice and quiet at night, allowing for a great night's sleep. At the same time, it's only a short walk to all the bars, restaurants, and nightlife if that's what you're looking for. Being right on the beach was another fantastic bonus.

The hotel was clean, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and we had a really enjoyable holiday overall. We would happily recommend it to others and would definitely return in the future.
