Atlantica Dreams Resort - All Inclusive

We stayed for one week, arriving on October 19, 2024. We stayed in room 5005 (swim-up). We had been looking at this hotel for a long time, and after staying in many other Atlantica hotels in Rhodes, we got a great deal and were excited to go here. Firstly, it’s likely that we wouldn’t stay again. It wasn’t a bad hotel or experience, but it didn’t quite fulfil expectations. That being said, I had high expectations so maybe that’s why. I would also not stay in October again, at least not late October. We had a swim-up room and it just wasn’t warm enough. We just didn’t get as much use of it as needed. That’s not a problem with the hotel entirely, it’s the October weather. However they only have one heated pool, and it’s the activity pool. They should really consider heating more pools, especially the swim-up pools. The rooms We stayed in swim-up room 5005, a family room. It wasn’t particularly large but it matched the other Atlantica hotels we’ve stayed in. It was decent for size and what we needed. It also had a partition in it for the two single beds at the patio doors. We, as non drinkers, asked the staff to give us a fridge full of pepsi max instead. Luckily we caught them coming to the room and they were great. Always restocked us with enough drinks. I did give them a small tip which also seemed to help. The swim-up terrace offers reasonable privacy. If it wasn’t so cold then the pool area was great and we would have been using this non-stop. There’s lots of reviews about some rooms being in/out of the sun. we were in a room, luckily, that had the sun from around 11am until it went down. I would not appreciate being in a room on the opposite side, that was in the shade from around midday. This would be very disappointing. Food In summary, the main buffet restaurant food was a let-down for this hotel. I was expecting much better, and have had better at Aegean Blu and Imperial. It did the job, but I can’t say a lot more than that. It wasn’t particularly exciting, and some dishes seemed to appear on different theme nights. By the end of the week I was bored of the buffet, but taking a 10 year old and a baby it was the easy option than trying to book another restaurant. Overall I was very disappointed in the buffet food at the hotel. The flip side to this is the waffle bar. Located near the waterpark, you could get waffles and ice creams and drinks here. Also some small donuts. The waffles were amazing, I suspect we ate 100 over the week. I loved this snack bar, despite it getting busy at times. If you go as soon as it opens there’s no queue. Snack bars These were good. If you love gyros as much as we do, you’ll be happy. There’s a snack bar next to the activity pool which we used, great for gyros, salad, chips, etc. the food was what you’d expect from here, decent quality and the wait times were always very short. There is another snack bar near the main pool area though, and this one does similar stuff. However, we always found the wai

Couldn't really fault it. What a box ticker. The cleanest hotel I've ever stayed at, so spacious and the staff are very friendly. The a la carte restaurants were a great mix up of food options which were included and the pools were excellent. Highly recommend for any family.

This resort was perfect for a week getaway Upon arrival the staff were really friendly and we were driven to our room in a buggy with our luggage and we were helped with unpacking There were loads of lovely pools and restaurants with a swim up bar in 2 of the pools There was a wonderful view of the sea and mountains from our room We rented a car and visited lots of nice places round the island The room was the most luxurious place I’d ever stayed and it also had a swimming pool Unfortunately the outdoor pools were a bit cold probably due to the season There were also some ancient ruins around the hotel Overall we had a fantastic holiday and I would highly recommend visiting although I would recommend visiting from late August to early September for the temperature of both the air and the pools We visited lots of
