"The resort is well located, very close to the beach, 5 min walk; close to the city, Chios, 15 min drive, and 10 min drive to the airport. Farfas is a small village, well served. I noticed a bus stop to Chios but never used. The resort facilities are a little old but well maintained. The rooms are comfortable, daily room service. They provide breakfast buffet with a variety of choices, very tasty, and a new Nespresso machine, love it. The pool is relatively small, the downside is that open hours start very late, 11am, till 7pm and it was packed with kids, no time for adults to use it. That area needs more cleaning maintenance. The covered parking is very confusing, there are different entrances and small spaces, The customer service is great. Sad to see that the top floor, ocean view, is no longer in service. We had a great vacation, highly recommend."
