Swimming saftey issues at pool, otherwise a lovely family holiday and stay.

Reviewed 2 weeks ago
The hotel staff were very prompt, Polite, and obliging.

The rooms were cleaned to a very high standard, this was done daily. The room was excellent.
Although, as these were cleaned at different hours each day, it was not easy to plan your day around this.

The hotels gardens are maintained to a very high standard.

The sunbeds on the adjacent beach were free to hotels guests.
Are you very con arrangement for the provision of beach towels from the hotel are available to guests at the reception, these towels were changed daily.

Pool was hardly used by guests due to over complicated pool rules. Pool times were from 10:00-18:00 only, during the hottest part of the day, unlike other locations when the pool stays open a few more hours in the evening. Annoyingly the opening hours were not displayed on the rules board by the pool, we had to ask at the reception after being shouted at by the pool staff.

The lifeguard did NOT pay attention and even when a non-swimmer member of the family was actually in the process of drowning the lifeguard was too busy on his mobile phone to help. The non-swimmer was helped by other guests at the pool. We thereafter only swam at the beach as the water was very shallow and safe, compared to the deep pool.

Even though The presence of a lifeguard may be reassuring, I certainly would not recommend any non-swimmers although with difficulties to swim in this pool without the complete assistance and supervision of friends or family. You most certainly cannot trust the lifeguard to pay attention. We were very disappointed and distraught.

The pool Also showed signs of The need for more maintenance and cleaning.

The only thing spoiling our amazing stay was the pool, and the lifeguard.
Date of stay: June 2024
Room Tip: I would recommend swimming at the beach, rather than at the pool as it was certainly a much more...

Thank you for your review Paul. We are so glad you had such a great time with your family in our hotel.

Opening hours of the pool is a great remark. We could expand the pool operating hours indeed. As you might be aware, hotels are obliged to operate under lifeguard's supervision by greek law. This is why, the operating hours are as such. Also, we would be more than happy to assist you and make clear certain rules that complicated your stay. Please contact us at info@fabresort.gr, it would really help us to improve our pool service.

Again, thank you for sharing your experience and we hope to welcome you at Fito Aqua Bleu again.

This was our 6th stay at Fito and once again it was superb,the pool is amazing and often quite ,the beach is awesome and the free sunbeds are very comfy ,beach does get busy but get there early and you will get a bed ,the staff are amazing the only exception being the new life guard certainly not the most friendliest person on the planet he would completely ignore our attempts to say hello and spent most of his time in the restaurant kitchen chatting he just didnt seem to fit in with the standard of the hotel ,the walk into the village is only 15 mins and is filled with great tavernas and bars our fave being the summertime bar ,cleanliness stands out as everything is spotless and the breakfast in the mornings is just amazing .we stayed in one of the delux rooms [room2] and they are roomy and very well equipped all in all another great stay and we have already booked for next June

Everything very clean, nicely decorated, beautiful gardens, nice pool and food in restaurant tasty (a little too much in quantity). Staff very friendly and professional. We were in a family group of 8 and without exception, we all enjoyed our stay.
Keep up the good work 👍

Thank you for the review Mrs Rebecca! We are glad you had a great time with us and we hope to welcome you back.

P.S.: Indeed airport next door to the hotel might not sound right, but the planes taking off just above your head is a very special experience.

This is our third visit to Fito Aqua Bleu, and we are still super happy! Amazing location, super friendly staff, good food and a very cozy environment. Restaurant close to the beach, and a bar/minishop on the beach itself. This is our go-to hotel on Samos for sure 🤩

We had a very pleasent stay at FAB resort. The room was small but because you only sleep there, it is big enough. It was cleaned every day. The airco did his his work. It was > 35°C. We only booked breakfast and this was good. The variaty was ok. Staff was very friendly and very helpful. We didn't spend very much time in te swimming pool but most of the time at the beach where the beds are for free. To Pythagorion it was anly a 15 minutes walk. The resort is very close to the airport but after 2 days you don't notice the leaving planes anymore. As I mentioned in my first sentence, we had a very pleasant stay at the FAB resort and we recomend it to anyone.

Room tip: If you want a bed at the beach, mak esure you are there early. There are a lot of people who put there towels there early in the morning/
