Brown Beach Evia Island

We did not book this hotel but, like a number of English holidaymakers, were transferred from others we presumed were closed as the season staggered to an end. We were lucky as we had 36 hours’ notice: others were told on arrival at Athens airport! As this had given us time to read the reviews on TripAdvisor, we were quite concerned at what we would find but I’m pleased to say it was a wholly positive experience. We were in bungalow 426, a clean, comfy base. Reception staff were pleasant and efficient, as were all front-line members. The hotel was quiet - certainly not much more than one-third full - and this was to our advantage. There were no queues at meal times, no dishes ran short, and most were warm, if not always hot. Served buffet-style, the menu was pretty stable but we managed a different combination on six occasions. The standard was good and we were very pleased. With so few residents, there were plenty of free sun beds around the pool and on the beach; whilst the music was non-stop, the volume was appropriate, unobtrusive and from our era - the ‘60s and early ‘70s!! The town is a twenty minutes stroll away along the beach front with a wide range of shops and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here and, in similar circumstances, would recommend in to all.

This hotel is great for a relaxing break. The staff are so polite and courteous. It is very clean and comfortable. We are here in October and the weather is in the high 20’s. There are various activities to take part in if that’s what you want to do but no pressure if you don’t

Nice hotel if you are french but as an English family we have taken our parents to experience their 1st all inclusive holiday we were supposed to be at the Amaronda resort but we only found out we were moved to Brown Beach on arrival at Athens airport which was scary. The bar and restaurant staff have been lovely but it is a shame the entertainment is only aimed for the french. We feel like second class citizens. As English guests it makes us feel very awkward. We left the entertainment earlier last night as they continued to play french songs and tonight we wasn't even invited to the entertainment in the conference room.

We stayed in this hotel for 1 week. Since we are a family of 4, we paid a lot of money for a suite, although the sofa was the same as in the 3 bed room, but the hotel did not allowed to stay there. The sofa offered for the kids was very uncomfy. The website of the hotel is nice and we thought they will give anything for this money. But behind these was no service from the hotel. The facility is nice and clean. on their website the offer slides, Ninja park, wibit, but it's not part of AI basis, cost extra money, what is specious. The ladies at the reception, they are really awful. If I wanted to ask something, they did not recognised me, just turned away. I don't know, whether they did not speak English or didn't wanted to help. There was only a men, who helped me. The food was OK, but it was not easy to find a table. If you found one, you needed to clean it for yourself. The staff in the restaurant at the bar and our cleaning lady was very-very kind, I liked them. So a huge thank you for all. And also a huge thank you for Pierre Angel and his team. Our suncreme was stolen, we could not buy any in the hotel and they gave us some left cremes from their storage. Parties were also good, and Pierre Angel helped us a lot. We could borrow some games from him, etc

A great place, a fabulous getaway not far from Athens. We truly enjoyed every minute of our stay. It is definitely not a typical all-inclusive hotel with crowds and noise everywhere, instead it is more like a boutique hotel with comfortable beach sunbeds, nice music, and VERY friendly staff. The service was excellent from the first moment we arrived until we left. It is also very clean hotel, both the rooms and the public areas. We can’t wait to be back.
