Filerimos Village Hotel

We had a wonderful vacation in Filerimos Village Hotel and cannot wait to get back, from our experience I cannot comprehend the previous harsh reviews as they are so far from what we experienced ourselves. Both myself and my wife are extremely satisfied, and our kids are still over the moon. Starting with the check-in process it was what you can expect from an hotel, some hassle with that the tourist tax needs to be paid in cash and not card, however we were allowed to pay it the day after so that we could find an ATM nearby. The All-inclusive instructions were very clear and timeslots for all activities were suitable for us. Breakfast had a great selection and was normally the same everyday (however it has something for everyone). Lunch was great with many salads to choose from and always something different meat or pasta to choose from everyday. Dinner was also really good with great options on salads but also the main course was different each day. People who are saying same food everyday must have picked the same food from the options they liked, however the presentation was never the same each day. Desserts and fruits were also good and many things to choose from. Cleaning was done on the spot straight after people left which made the restaurant spotless with staff going around more or less all the time to take care of the service. Wonderful ladies interacted with our kids and made them laugh everyday so they really made our experience even better. Some baby-chairs available as well, which we used on each visit. The snack bar had great drinks and ice-cream, food was also okey but we mainly ate in the restaurant. Our kids loved the pizza, however the 2 slices per person setup we personally thought was unnecessary as it was mainly kids eating pizza and the lines were long due to many parents had to follow to get more slices. The pools in the hotel complex were great in size, it never felt crowded if you want to be by yourself the pool close to the restaurant was great for that. If you want music and more people then the other pools by the snack bar were a great option. I agree with the cleaning of the pools, that could be improved as one of the pools had green water as there were many people all day in that pool and also water-activities were done in that pool, so might worth looking into how to clean it better. The water park was very exciting and great for the kids, the water-slides were fun for both adults and kids and this area was a great "break" from the hotel complex. Our room (bungalow) was very clean and great in size for us, 2 adults and 2 kids. Cleaning was done on the first 4 days of 7, however our last 3 days there was no cleaning. Check out was smooth and quick. Considering only paying by cash for the tourist taxes, the pizza "2 slice rule", the green water in one of the smaller pools and the cleaning of the rooms, that brings our review to 4 out of 5 stars, otherwise I could easily sum up our experience with 5 stars. I will definitely look into coming back to this Hotel if we choose Rhodes again in the future.

Lovely big family room for myself and my grandaughter. 4 beds in total, large balcony. Room cleaned and towels changed as often as we requested Good air-conditioning. Bed was a bit too hard for me. Breakfast had a great selection to suit all tastes,and nationalities, plenty of choice. We chose the snack bar at the pool for lunch,the pizzas are cooked there,really tasty. Evening meal, the specials, such as bbq meat and pasta dishes were very good although could do with being warmer. Lots of salad, breads and vegetables always on offer. Reasonable selection deserts,plenty of fruit. Beer, red and white wine on tap in the restaurant as well as soft drinks and water. Life guard ( Spanish girl) was fabulous with the children. Entertainment during the day was ok. Evening entertainment was a bit hit and miss. Reception staff were helpful with booking excursions. There is a very useful, well stocked shop on site. Negative stuff now.. not enough sun loungers, people reserving them and not using them. Bar manager (I'm guessing) rude ,slow, foul language, very mean with the drink,which was not good quality anyway. Well located for the airport and visiting Lindos and Rhodes town.

Stayed here for 3 nights with my boyfriend. This was our first mini holiday together & we both had a great time. Hotel staff are friendly & provide great service. This hotel is clean & tidy in all areas. The bedroom (617) we stayed in was a family room as I think that's all they had left @ the time of booking. Bedroom is very nice, clean & spacious. The bedroom also had a mini fridge, great storage spaces, with bathroom which had a walk in shower. The cleaners came to the room every day with towels & fresh bedding. The food in the restaurant is actually really tasty! Pour your own drinks in the restaurant too. Food at the snack bar is not worth getting, only the pizza is though! Drinks are served at the pool bar, with only ordering 2 at a time per person. A queue can form if staff are not speedy at serving people. The pools are DEEP! (2-3m). Not ideal if you are not a strong swimmer. When you get in it's a little cold for a moment but afterwards your fine. We got a lilo to share which we got from the shop at the front of the hotel which we had loads of fun on. STAY AWAY from the entertainment area on the evening as we got mosquito bites the day after we sat there, if you want the entertainment then I would definitely recommend using repellent so you don't end up making the mistake we did! We went to the water park & it was really busy we left within minutes. The lazy river wasn't as good as we thought it would be.

Everything was perfect, we loved everything. The staff, the food, the service and our room was great and we were thrilled about how nice the receptionist was, her name was Roberta. She helped us with everything and was really nice aswell. We recommend this hotel for everyone!

Currently sat next to the restaurant and pool after enjoying our last meal before we depart home and we are sad to be leaving. The hotel is a typical, comfortable, family friendly hotel with all the basic amenities to cater to them. There are 2 large pools, a smaller pool and a toddler pool, all of which are well maintained and clean, although a little cold for the brits lol. But the cold is a welcome relief after a day of baking in the beautiful sunshine on the comfortable loungers provided. The rooms are comfortable and cleaned daily, the family rooms come with sliding doors to seperate the bedroom and livingroom/second room. The bathrooms have toilet, sink, shower over bath (no plug for a bath) and huge mirrors (great for the mom's and teens who want to do their hair and makeup). The staff are true to the stereotype that brits see in the Greeks. Super kind, super friendly, and always happy to help wherever they can. In particular, the manager of the restaurant, Makis, was really kind to our family throughout, and today went as far as reducing the price for lunch as our all inclusive had ended with us checking out this morning. We are extremely grateful for this especially with the long flight home we are facing. And finally the cats! We've seen about 15 cats around the hotel, and spent our meal times sharing bits off our plates with them. The Greek people seem to have a big love for cats and it shows with how well treated these animals are. We fell in love over and over with these cats. They aren't aggressive, they won't steal food or jump on tables and chairs, they will however give little shouts at people in the hopes of receiving food scraps which we are suckers for. The food is really good! Yes the selection is a little bit limited, but there are plenty of options for vegetarians aswell as those of us who enjoy meat and veg! I'm an extremely picky eater and yet I have had a full tummy every single day. The breakfast is very basic, but can't really complain when it's based on the English breakfasts. All in all I would give this hotel 5/5 and would happily return for another short stay in the future
