Akti Imperial Deluxe Resort & Spa Dolce by Wyndham

Room: Not very spacious and lacking finishing touches. The bathroom door couldn’t be fully closed. There was a water shortage while taking a shower. It happened once during my stay and had to call reception mid-shower to fix the issue. On the cleaning side, the service was perfect. Food: the buffet of main restaurant was not bad. Variety of choices but at some point, it started to feel very repetitive. We have only tried 2 restaurants à la carte. But they are not really à la carte. They just bring everything they have cooked in the kitchen during that day. Even if the staff was doing their best to offer a great service, the food was not delicious. Entertainment/activities: When I booked the hotel, I saw that they have sports sessions (pilates, yoga…) which I was interested to take in. To my surprise, I asked reception twice about these sports classes and no info was provided. They have repeated the same thing twice; that I have to look for the entertainment team, but they were nowhere to be found… For the evening entertainment, I was very disappointed by their shows. Nothing spectacular about them. Overall: I was surprised that this is a 5 star hotel. They need to invest in new technologies to improve their organisation (entertainment programs, booking of restaurants à la carte, information on hotel facilities…). Another that thing needs improvement is security. Anyone can enter the hotel either from the main entrance or from beach entrance. It didn’t really feel safe to leave your stuff on a sunbed to go and have lunch. You always have to carry your stuff with you.

We were very happy with our choice of this hotel. We stayed as a couple at the end of April/beginning of May. The weather was excellent although Ixia was a little windy which we were aware of before our visit . Hotel is welcoming, modern and very clean. We felt it deserved its 5* rating given the options and facilities available to guests and it’s very well organised . Pools are great plenty of choice including adult only and there is no shortage of sunbeds. Pool towels are available free of charge from the spa and can be exchanged daily. Beach area was a nice touch and we enjoyed the beach bar which is accessed via a tunnel under the road from the grounds of the hotel . Several bar areas available with branded spirits if you ask for them. Special thanks to Sergey at the lobby bar fab waiter service and such a nice guy. Sports bar is also good overlooking the sea and never too busy. Food and restaurants are great so much choice and all great quality. Two omlette stations at breakfast plus so much choice. We used all the restaurants available at lunch and really enjoyed each of them. We chose lucilous and the meat and fish grill for our a la carte options they were amazing with great staff too. The food was a big wow at this hotel. Staff are very friendly and helpful and so pleased to chat with you they really take pride in delivering a fab service to guests. Our room was a side sea view plenty of storage and super comfy beds. We did have an issue of road noise which we put down to a fitment being missing at the top of the doors. We know this as when we used the shower room on floor one the doors were much better fitted. We did report this to reception on departure but not sure it will be fixed. It would also be nice if all the hotel toilets had working locks on the doors a lot of guests comment on this issue. Location is great as it’s close to Rhodes Town our favourite place over the years. Hotel is also not far from the airport. Overall had a great time and would recommend.

Absolutely loved this hotel. We holiday in Greece twice a year and this is my second favourite hotel I’ve stayed at. We came here as a group of 12 split over 4 bookings and everyone loved it. 6 of us have already booked for next year. Staff are very friendly and look after your every need with a smile on their face. Branded drinks, non stop food with lots of restaurants (Chinese was excellent) pool towels changed daily if required. Very clean. Love it.

Arieta and Marialena were amazing, calming and professional with a magic touch. It was very relaxing and helpful for my pregnant wife. Definitely recommended. Also Maria at the reception was super friendly nice and welcoming. Thank you for an incredible experience.

we had a couple massage it was very nice and relaxing we would recommend it. they let you feel very comfortable en the service was also realy nice. especially my neck and my shoulders are very relaxed as wel as my head. I would really recommend it to anyone who just wants to relax.

Leaving the hotel today, had a lovely time and wouldn't say anything negative about this place. There was 18 off us and we all enjoyed the hotel. My 5 year old daughter had a nasty accident in the sports bar and needed stitches. The hotel staff were brilliant and i couldn't have asked for anything more. The 2 lifeguards were also amazing and kept an eye on the wound and cleaned it and re covered it every day for her. Would definitely come back.

We just came home from two lovely weeks at Akti Imperial Hotel. The room was nice, the view was lovely, great food (especially in the Italian restaurant), perfect location and the BEST staff. A special thank you to Akin and Gloria. David made us the best pizza everyday and Eleni made us feel like home. Such a beautiful woman. We were very amazed by the professional and friendly staff. We do not agree with some of the bad reviews the hotel has received recently. The only things that we can point the finger on is that it was hard to get sunbeds by the pool (not at the beach thankfully). We had a room with sea-view and there was very much noise from the outside (traffic, music, activities ++). And the spa-personal was following us everywhere - pushing us to buy massages etc. even though I did buy a treatment on our second day, they did not stop asking us.

Amazing hotel Food was to a really high standard. Could always find something nice to eat. The pizza place at lunch served stone bake pizzas that were cooked fresh and absolutely delicious. The rooms were clean and modern. All the staff were so polite and helpful. Special mention to the entertainment team who worked so hard all day and night. Will definitely return again.
