I went to the Himera with my daughter. We both thoroughly enjoyed the hotel, very clean and luxurious. It is remote but we wanted a relaxing holiday so the location suited us. Although the pool was chilly, I loved it and it was great for aqua aerobics.We were disappointed with the state of the beach, very messy and ugly which spoiled the overall experience of the hotel. Much could be improved here. We found all the staff from reception to bar, restaurant, cleaners and entertainment amazing, they are all a credit to the hotel. There was plenty of variety in the restaurant and the food was very tasty. We had mixed weather so an English Channel on the TV would have been nice. The entertainment was good but not advertised very well. We saw people playing darts and tennis but wasn’t told these were going on so entertainment communications could be improved. On our departure day I asked for our luggage to be locked away safely as we were leaving in the evening, there wasn’t one, so our cases were just left near reception which wasn’t great for safety. I was very surprised there was no shower room for a late departure, they did offer a late check out at a cost of €30. On a cloudy day we booked a massage , it was very good and recommended. Overall, a great place to go if you want to just relax and enjoy what the hotel and weather has to offer. If exploring the local area, a car would be needed as buses and taxis are expensive.

“Beautiful hotel, stunning views but you NEED A CAR!”

The hotel is beautiful inside and outside. The rooms are lovely and modern but there is NOTHING close by, not even a supermarket or cafe. The train station is a 30 minue walk along a road with no pathway... You NEED A CAR to stay here unless you just want to sunbathe, eat and drink!! The staff are… lisää

The train station is a 30 minue walk along a road with no pathway... You NEED A CAR to stay here unless you just want to sunbathe, eat and drink!! The staff are very good. Lovely people. A big shout out to Vinny (a gentleman) and Deborah in the Entertainment Team xx

“Great trip lovely hotel and even better staff”

The hotel is lovely great food and amazing staff who can not do enough for you. The location is remote. It’s a 10 euro taxi to anywhere which isn’t a problem if you are aware, but we were not and not even a shop so was a little odd. However if you want to just site in the sun and go nowhere and not… lisää

The hotel is lovely great food and amazing staff who can not do enough for you. The location is remote. It’s a 10 euro taxi to anywhere which isn’t a problem if you are aware, but we were not and not even a shop so was a little odd. However if you want to just site in the sun and go nowhere and not spend any money this is perfect. Like I said food is great and staff were perfect animation team were lovely with my son who is very shy

“Modern Hotel - Mixed Experience”

Pros: Modern and clean hotel and couldn’t fault that side of it. Restaurant and bar staff were lovely and attentive especially with helping us with items for our baby. Helpful staff when needed.

Pros: Modern and clean hotel and couldn’t fault that side of it. Restaurant and bar staff were lovely and attentive especially with helping us with items for our baby. Helpful staff when needed. Pool is nice (but can be quite cold) - beach is very pebbly but can’t complain as that’s just due to location but was still nice to dip into the sea. Cons: The food was disappointing - some options ran out quickly and just were not as advertised on their socials and website. Limited meal times (7:30-9:30 for breakfast, 12:30-2 for lunch and 7:30-9 for dinner and extremely rigid which isn’t great for young families but understand this would be fine otherwise) so was always a rush to get through everything. For an all inclusive the “snacks” were leftover croissants and one other odd item so don’t think - certainly not in keeping with a 4* hotel or experience. Drinks are limited and bottom shelf items - unbranded beer, wines and soft drinks but a few ok options. Charge 5 EUR to pool towels - even to change over to replace them for fresh ones. Major complaint is the deserts put out had contained alcohol but were not labelled. Kids had helped themselves to it and there were no other alternatives. We realised and complained of which we were initially told it was watered down so would be fine, which was a strange reaction. After complaining to management, we received an apology and were told they would ensure it would be labelled going forward but that we should ask going forward in the restaurant to be sure (again a little odd as these deserts were the only options). Same thing happened the next night and still no labels. Overall it’s a modern and clean hotel with lovely staff for the most part but the F&B was disappointing - it’s not a 4 star hotel.
