We arrived the early hours of the morning after a hour transfer from the airport.We all reported to reception to collect our keys and we were also given a bottle of water (nice touch )
When we arried at our apartment I noticed there was alot of ants on the floor also the apartment smelt and there was a tatty old matress on top of the wardrobe, as we had a 8 year old child as well I felt there was no way we could sleep in the apartment, so I went back to the reception and spoke to a male receptionist (remember this was about 4 in the morn!!) he said he could not move me as all the rooms were allocated and they were waiting for another coach group to arrive in a few hours. After being very patient but determined not to stay in the apartment he agreed to change our apartment for us, after we were moved we did not have any complaints.
A fantatstic place to stay the staff were really good esp Stelios and a very pretty girl called "Armani" who was really funny and had a wicked personality.The omelettes are really nice and are always served with chips, so this is nice for a "brunch" The breakfast is really good too!!!!
The situation of the hotel was ideal not to close to live entertainment and close too the beach. We came with my son and his girlfriend who went into the town every night and made friends with a local who worked in one of the bars, we joined them some nights but we were quite happy just taking it easy!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent apartments, clean and very spacious, everything there you need for a great holiday.
Two mins walk to beach, five mins to centre of village although a taverna, a couple of really nice bars and supermarket less than a minutes walk away. Beach lovely and safe for kids.
Hotel staff very friendly and helpful and bar staff superb. Entertainment usual things but resort so close by this is not a problem.
Would definitely recommend these apartments.

We would definitely recommend the Matina.
We stayed in a studio for three which was very spacious, and well equipped with a toaster, microwave, kettle and fridge.
These apartments were very clean with maid service every day apart from Sunday.
The food and drinks at the pool bar were very good, and the bar staff were very friendly.
The apartments are situated on an incline, but it is not too steep, two minutes from the beach and five minutes to the resort centre.
The pool area was very clean and in nice surroundings, there was plenty of sun loungers.
There was entertainment at the pool bar every night, but can't really comment because we went into the resort centre most evenings.
We would definitely visit Pefkos again, and stay at the Matina.

This was our first visit to a Greek island and we couldn't have chosen a better place.
The Matina is spotlessly clean with an excellent maid service. We stayed in a studio which was well kitted out and very spacious, oh and loads of hangers in the wardrobe.
The staff always friendly and polite. Location was perfect 2mins to the beach and plenty of bars and restaurants on the doorstep. The pool area is spacious with plenty of sun beds, Tables and parasols and also immaculate.
The weather was extremely hot whilst we were there but we made good use of the pool to cool off. Air con is a must, its not cheap, but worth it.
The poolside bar was excellent value for lunches/snacks and the food was lovely. Evening entertainment was good fun especially the Greek night on a Sunday.
The games room was put to good use by our daughter and again was very clean with excellent facilities.

This was our first holiday on Rhodes and we couldn't have picked a nicer place.
The Matina was clean and tidy.
We stayed in a studio apartment and it was very spacious, loads of room for the three of us.
Stegros and mikalis who served at the bar were great, very friendly, stegros always remembered our names.
The Matina is in a great position, a couple of minutes to the beach and a short walk to the nearest bars and restaurants.
We would recommend the Martina for a great family holiday.

The accomodation was cleaned every day but sunday, and the cleaning staff were the friendliest I have come across!
The bar staff in the evening seemed on occasion to make the prices up, so watch out for that.
If you have any problems at all the reception lady was brilliant and very knowledgable.
The pool was very crowded so you needed to be up early to get a sunbed, but we found the kelari bar had a beautiful pool and did better lunch just up the road, and always had spare sunbeds.
The Matina seemed to be the best standard of accomodation that we saw, and had the best play ground. however if you had small children they seemed to wander between the pool and playarea and it was hard to keep an eye on them, which is another reason we chose the Kelari pool in the day.
Overall we had a brilliant holiday and I would recommend the hotel.

Excellent holiday
Stayed in a one bedroom apartment and there was plenty of room. Maids did a great job 6 days and we had fresh towels and bedding every second day. Air conditioning a bit pricey - we were prepared though thanks to reading reviews on this site. We paid 70 Euros + 30 Euro deposit.
Bar food was great and fairly cheap too. Plenty of kids meals to choose from and ice cream cones for 1 euro which kept the kids happy as well as the usual freezer delights.
Location of hotel was great - 2 minute walk from beach and 5/10 minute walk to resort centre.
Bar staff (Stegros & Mikalis) were great and the reception staff very friendly & helpful. Greek beer Mythos very nice as served in ice cold glass.
Entertainment consisited of pub quiz/greek night/karaoke/reps party/bbq evening.
Would certainly book up for these apartments again as we had an excellent holiday.

We stayed in studio which was very clean and had everything you would need (including hairdryer)It was cleaned everyday except sunday.
We ate at the pool bar several times for breakfast/lunch and it was excellent also very reasonable.A few minuites to the beach and shops.
One great thing there were no touts or people trying to drag you in to their restuarant,they were just lovely friendly people,would recommend hiring a car there are some great sights get up into the mountains ad see the real "greek" villages also Tsambiki beach and Pressonissi(sp).
We will certainly be going back, incidentally the weather was scorching we just needed a light jacket at night.

I must be in the minority as regards my opinion on the Matina Apts. We had a ground floor studio apt just behind reception and although I agree the place is kept very clean, I found it noisy at night and a bit smelly in public areas. There were broken tiles around the pool and a child cut his foot on a broken tile when we were there. The pool was manic, so busy, you did not have a chance of keeping a close eye on children. I hated staying at the Matina. If you want lovely apartments in Pefkos try Lindia Thallasa (stayed there in 2004) - far superior to Matina, could not fault Lindia Thallasa, superb, clean and 50m from beach.
