Haraki Beach

Had read a few reviews on the beautiful small seaside town of Haraki and we took a chance. We certainly lucked out by picking Georgia’s place, very clean rooms, all amenities, proximity to bars/ restaurants and beach under two minutes, but the views from the communal roof terrace were food for the soul. Both Georgia and Roumi made our stay very special. Definitely a keeper and will return again for the exemplary service and another few sunrise vistas with a string coffee…!

We have visited this hotel on several occasions. the staff have always been very accommodating. The food is excellent, and breakfast can be (within reason) what you want. on our last visit, we stayed in one of the new apartments belonging to the hotel which I can only describe as Superb!! everything you could possible need, fab shower room, cosy bedroom and living are complete with galley kitchen.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful two weeks at the superb Haraki Bay Hotel Apartments, late June 2023. In over 30 years of holidays primarily around the Mediterranean, these apartments have been by far the best appointed self-catering accommodation, complemented by the most friendly and personable team of staff. Recently completed in 2021/22, the block of 8 apartments is situated on the quiet street just behind the Haraki Bay Hotel and only 2 minutes walk to the beach. Each apartment overlooks a delightful immaculately maintained garden. This road is a cul-de-sac with only an occasional vehicle accessing the neighbouring holiday apartments. Our apartment had air conditioning in both the bedroom and lounge areas, televisions in each room with a comprehensive range of multi-language channels, and ample wardrobe storage space, including hangers. The bed was very comfortable, particularly for those who prefer a firmer mattress, with linen changed frequently. The bathroom was spotlessly clean with a modern drench head shower and hot water all times of the day. Hand and bath towels were provided and changed frequently. The kitchen was fully appointed with a full sized oven, 4 ring induction hob, family sized fridge freezer and even a dish washer. The room was serviced daily, with all waste bins emptied, and floors thoroughly swept and mopped. Our ground floor balcony faced south which meant that it was in full shade in June, perfect for dining around the large table, or relaxing with a book and drink without being frazzled by the intense sun. Chris and her team at the Haraki Bay Hotel were a delight and we were treated as though we were family throughout our stay. From the late night check-in to our evening departure, we were greeted with smiles, humour and the most amazing service. Nothing was too much trouble. The staff transformed a great holiday into a fabulous holiday. We followed the advice from the hotel and booked a local taxi (by WhatsApp) for transfers from and to Rhodes airport. Booking and confirmation was very professional, and the drivers were on time and very friendly. The restaurant at the Haraki Bay Hotel was one of our favourite in the resort, so much so that we dined here every day during our second week. We quickly realised with the generous portions of the main course dishes we were better following the locals practice of ordering several hot and cold starters and one main course, grazing across all. Prices across the resort were fairly consistent. Haraki is a delightfully quiet resort, primarily based around a small bay fronted by restaurants and holiday apartments that directly access the promenade behind the beach. The beach itself is sand and shingle, so wet shoes were popular, with plenty available to purchase in the 3-4 holiday supermarkets in the resort. The beach shelved fairly steeply so it only took a few steps over the shingle shoreline to reach sufficient depth to swim. This probably isn’t an ideal beach for

My wife and I spent 3 nights in Haraki and really enjoyed the atmosphere and the feeling of being a little out of the way from most turist. Whilst still having all the typical beach activies available, like boat rentals and beachside restaurants. The hotel has it`s own restaurant and a shop that sells anything you could want from a beachside grocery store.
