Rainbow Apartments

The Rainbow hotel was fabulous! The apartments were lovely and spacious. The rooms were cleaned extremely thoroughly and bed linen/towels changed every other day. We had a sea view from one side of our balcony, the pool in front of us and hills on the other side. The air conditioning was brilliant and the safety deposit box required a pin so there was no need to worry about keeping a key safe.
The pool was fabulous, clean, there were always loungers spare and the pool wasn't busy either, I could float round on my lilo without worrying about disturbing anyone else in the pool. There are also inflatables supplied by the hotel.
The pool bar was fantastic, the cocktails and food were super, courtesy of George and Kostas, who made our holiday with their friendly banter and willingness to provide an extremely high quality customer service.
The apartments are about 200m away from the centre of Stalis, which is so convenient.
I couldn't fault the hotel. I had the perfect holiday and we WILL be back!!

Just returned from a fantastic stay at the Rainbow apartments along with 9 more family members .
Apartments are spacious and very clean,pool area spotless and the staff here tremendous.Maria runs around all day checking that everything is in working order and that all the guests are happy.
George and Kostas run the bar and are great fun,they serve snacks here incl breakfast and it stays open late which can be rather handy.
Our favourite restaurants are 9 muses ,Marias golden beach and the italian up by the church (can't remember the name) but i must say you'd struggle to get a bad meal in the whole of Stalis.
The only slightly off putting thing about these apartments initially is the fact that you have to cross a very busy road to get to the main resort but if you walk a little bit further on to the right there is an underpass which would be a lot more sensible if you have young children.
We loved it at the Rainbow so much we WILL return.

We booked this before we looked at the reviews. One or two gave us cause for concern but in fact the accommodation is absolutely excellent. The room was spotless, linen and towels changed frequently and even the beds were usually made for us; more like an aparthotel really. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the gardens very pleasant and the pool excellent.
As for Stalis, the beach is great, good for swimming, plenty of sunbeds available, bars, shops and restaurants a-plenty. Lots of the goods on sale are tourist tat but there are some good buys if you look. The Western end of the Beach Road is much quieter with a couple of nice bars and some good restaurants. The 9 Muses was our favourite; try the Shrimps Souvlaki. The Ellas taverna is very close to the Rainbow and that is also very good; to be fair, we tried quite a few tavernas and they were all pretty good.
One word of warning: in high season we would expect Stalis to be very busy. There are literally hundreds of quad bikes and scooters for hire and they will all be going up and down the Beach Road. Not our idea of fun at all.
The only drawback to the Rainbow could be its proximity to the main road. We were able to sleep with the double glazing closed in October but in summer you'll either be kept awake by the air con or the quad bikes. Good ear plugs are advisable.

We having been coming to Stalis many years and May 07 will be our fifth year in the Rainbow and we would not stay any where else!
The apartments are spotless and beautifully maintained, although we miss the old style shutters, Costa is a lovely friendly man, very quiet but very very helpful.
There are many wonderful restaurants my favourites being Roma, and Golden beach, the food is to die for and the staff welcome us back like long lost friends each year!
I cannot recommend the Rainbow highly enough, if you are mature and enjoy peace, quiet and total relaxation in a clean and beautiful environment.

The rainbow apartments are ideal for people of all ages, the atmosphere of the pool is quiet and relaxed. The bar owner and his family are lovely too, from reading the previous reviews I believe the wild dimi and sue are gone as the new owners are very relaxed.
The apartments themselves are spotless, they are clean and tidy and in lovely surroundings due to the owner being in his garden. He is also a nice man quiet but there if you need him. Although they are situated on the main road it can be quite noisy if doors and windows are left open but this isn't necessary as air con and fans are available.
They are situated just over the main road from the resort centre the beach is about 200m away which is ideal as you can get more of a breeze at the beach. There is also a lovely Greek taverna over the road which is cheap and your meals are lovely each time. They also hold a Greek night on a Monday and a Friday which are very enjoyable!
Overall this holiday was fabulous for our family as Stalis is a good resort that caters for people of all ages.

Well how wrong have Direct Holidays got this one, no relaxing here.
Was here in 2003 and had a great time so when it came to bringing kids on there first holiday I thought here would be a good idea..... how wrong was I. Kostas is long gone and in come Dimitri and Sue who seem to think loud is best, until 3-4 am most mornings trying in vain to get the 1 -2 people at the bar to dance when all most wanted to do was sleep, Don’t get me wrong there nice people but suited to Malia, or a 18 30 club. Dim is a sound guy when he sits a chats, but becomes some one else behind the bar...
Rooms were cleaned 2 in the week due to it been quiet, some how I don’t think that’s fault but was told this any way, drains in bathroom were blocked no panic either, was told sand, we never were @ a beech as we spent your time in Starbeech, a must 4 families( this a waterpark with djs bungees and so on)
Quads and bikes are a probably in the resort but hey, there cheap transport.
This was my 4th time in Stalis and not my last, Im heading to Koni in July as it looks lovely.
A family of 3 can eat out here with a beer for €29 - € 30 not bad i must say...

We have stayed in many Greek Resorts throughout the years but always come back to Stalis.
The Rainbow Apartments are better than average apartments with large bedrooms and a great pool area. We never had a problem getting a sunbed and the pool is cleaned daily. Kostas the owner is usually around tending the gardens but he is a very quiet man. Sue and Demi at the pool bar make up for this. The bar stays open well into the morning but you can always go to bed if it gets too much.
There is a small shop at the front of the apartments, ideal for essentials - beer and water. The restaurants in Stalis are excellent and there is a wide choice. You could go to a different one every night. We think that the Rainbow Apartments are lovely and in a great location. Can't wait to go back next year.
