Sep 2008, Mr R Kelly

I have absolutely nothing positive to say about the Stella Aparthotel.
When I arrived at the Stella Aparthotel the stench from the sewers was so strong it nearly made me vomit. This smell was continual through out my stay. Our balcony was covered in dead insects, the curtains in the bedroom where threadbare, the corners of the room had cobwebs in them, the kitchen cupboards where covered in stains, the bathroom tiles where all cracked, bedroom had footprints on the wall and the apartment was fitted with light fitting just about hanging on to the wall. Absolutely filthy apartment.

I found Joy who worked behind the bar and reception rude, ignorant and very unpleasant. I thought she was trying to be ironic when she told me her name. I would like to take this oppurtunity to apolgise to Joy for troubling her for a drink during my stay.
I was also amazed upon my arrival that the air conditioning was an extra 14 euros per night! Maybe I have been lucky but I have never been asked to pay extra for air conditioning.
Thomas Cook rep was as rare as the Dodo and the only reply Stella (The Manager) could give to my complaints was that I should have told her earlier. I think Stella needs to appreciate that people do not go on holiday to spend all their time chasing the hotel manager to complain and in addition if I am paying good money to stay in her hotel, it should be perfect when I arrive and during my stay.
To put it simply I was disgusted.

Myself, my partner and our two kids age 5 and 8 have just arrived back from the stella hotel in Pefkos and id just like to say that the hotel was perfect for us, id had a look on the website to check it out before we went and i have to say, as nice as it looks on the site, its much better in the flesh! it was realy clean, the staff were realy nice and its in a great location in pefkos.
The beach is just staight down the road and there is a supermarket and bakery just below the complex.
just across the road there is a fantastic bar called Jasmins bar and its just perfect if you have kids, theres a large childrens play area built onto the side with a fence round so no-one can get out and the side of the bar is open so you can sit at a table and see your kids playing. we all realy enjoyed it and would go back without a doubt!

We took these apartments as a last minute and I was a little bit nervous. Absolutely no need, I had the best holiday ever and I'm well travelled. Stella was lovely, clean, and quiet at night. We went for a relaxing break and it was perfect.
All the nearby eateries are delicious and Pefkos is small but really friendly.
Trying to book for this year and the prices have shot up...I wonder why???

Went to Stella Apartments in July/August ’07, it was such an amazing holiday. The pool is a small size but lovely. When we arrived they were having a heat wave, making it dead hot. Everyone is dead friendly and every knows everyone. I met some amazing friends who I will never forget. We went to beach on a pedalo one day and it was just too hot to be on it!
At night there is sometimes entertainment in the apartments but if not there is loads more entertainment else where. Eclipse bar you must go to! It’s extremely hot in there but such an awesome atmosphere. Me & my friends used to just walk around the island (even though is was unbearable heat ... even at night!) and explore and sit in loads of different bars. Eclipse bar is definitely a place to also go in the day, loads of the Greek kids hang out there as well so we made friends with them as well! A restaurant called ' Two Brothers' which is another must place to go to.
Overall this holiday was amazing. Pefkos is a beautiful little island and is a place I would love to go back to.
10/10!

I booked the Stella a few weeks before going as a surprise for my boyfriends 21st birthday! It was really cheap and I was a little worried it would be a shabby hotel and the weather would be not too pleasing! so I let him know...
... but as we arrived, we come to a really nice, big hotel, and I had to ask the rep "are you sure this is were we are staying??" as I really was expecting little apartments.
Anyway the staff were really friendly and when we got to our hotel room, the view of Pefkos was amazing, we watched the sunset and it was so beautiful! The room was really big and modern and not basic or shabby! No insects which you always see in Greek apartments.
The pool was a fair size, it had 2 small pools for kids, and there was a lot of people there for October, the sun stays on the pool area all day, plenty of sunbeds available, its just located slightly up a tiny hill and I mean tiny like you walk say 30secs up it off the main street in Pefkos!

The only bad points I have about the hotel is that the plates were a bit mingy and stained and the maid come at like dead on 10am everyday when I was eating my breakfast before we went to the pool which did annoy me =D
You have everything at your door step, 1min from main street, 5mins from beach!!!
I honestly thought we were in for a boring holiday! but there was mainly young and old couples, mostly age 21 up, no big gangs of teens there or anything (which is what we've always went away for, we like lively places you see), but it was really nice and relaxing. A big change from what we were used to but still plenty of cocktails and bars to keep you entertained at the end of the main street. Nothing was closed because it was near end of season, everything was still open and it wasn't a quiet hol, but it wasn't a partying hol either, so it suits everyone.
To be honest the whole of the Pefkos area is really modern and classy, gorgeous places to eat, no dodgy looking places what so ever! The restaurants there and the shops are better looking than ours in the uk! and the people are really really friendly, I get sick of the grumpy, miserable people you find over here.
And as for the weather... I gotta say I've never seen so much sun in October, we went to Zante last September and it rained the whole week! But in Pefkos it was so hot and I came home with a lovely tan.
I'd defo go back to the Stella and to Pefkos, maybe mid Sept to get some more young couples to mix with but other than that, I'd defo recommend going, for couples its a lovely, relaxing, holiday, with great food and great cocktails... =D x

We went to Rhodes to attend a friends wedding in Lindos. We booked Pefkos as we wanted to stay out of busy Lindos for a chilled holiday too.
How perfect it was!
The apartments were lovely, like brand new. The cleaners came in every day and changed the towels every day (apart from Sundays). The weather was very hot even for September. We definitely needed the air con. The pool area is very clean and all the staff are very friendly.
Everything is so close and surprisingly not noisy when in your apartment.
There were so many fantastic restaurants, across the road, next door, 2 mins up the road etc and loads of good bars.
A few of our friends came over from Lindos to escape the high prices and non-child-friendly hustle and bustle. They all said they would definitely stay in Pefkos next time.
I cannot rave about this resort and the apartments enough. We will definitely be going back. We loved every minute.

Arrived at the start of a heat wave, our room was perfect for two adults and two children, aged ten and twelve. Clean linen and towels on a daily basis if asked for, every other day otherwise. Rooms cleaned daily to a high standard - Stella and her staff were lovely, especially Joy. The food is really nice as well too (my picky eaters ate things they wouldn’t touch at home -fried eggs). If you’re to lazy to walk anywhere there is adequate facilities for all age groups of children around the pool and it is kept to a high standard, as is the children’s play area, plenty of sun beds too.
The beach is about ten minutes away and there are plenty of bars/restaurants enroute for a cool drink while on your stroll. Have to add that Lee the rep was great and organised daily activities round the pool and a night time quiz (I should have won with my drawing of George).
All of my family have enjoyed the best holiday in a long time and all want to go back just so we can see more of a beautiful place.

Just got back from an amazing holiday in Rhodes. Had the best week of my life and Stella Apartments had a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
Rooms were bright, clean and airy. Overall Stella made the holiday even more enjoyable. Gorgeous bakery just up the road, sells gorgeous pastries and cakes.
Rhodes is magnificent island very beautiful scenery and lots of places to visit. Pool at Stella is very nice. Sunbeds go quickly but apart from that it's magnificent.

Got back today after lovely 2 weeks at Stella. Can't fault the cleanliness of the apartments or the whole facilities, equipment in room very good but we did miss having a toaster! The pools were lovely and very welcome during the intense heat, we especially liked sitting in the smaller pool most of the day reading and chatting.
Had many nice meals in the resort but would suggest avoiding the Nostalgia restaurant if you are a vegetarian as we found a live caterpillar in our lettuce! Be careful if you travel with Airtours and as we were completely misled regarding what was covered in the insurance if you hired a car through them!.. no doubt the commission earned was more important than them being totally honest with us. also the rep that accompanied us back to the airport today was a right miserable indivdual who was quite rude when asked a perfectly sensible question!
All in all we really enjoyed our two weeks and would recommend staying with Stella. When we booked we also looked at the Filimon but having seen it in resort we were so glad we chose the Stella.
