The apartment had a beautiful garden view.

truly, i almost was going to give this place a nice review, but the dated, yellow-tiled bathrooms and the low sloping ceiling in my apartment were unforgivable. also, can you believe i didn't even receive a complimentary greeting upon arrival? i mean, what happened to treating guests like royalty?

Accessibility could be an issue due to the narrow spiral staircase in some two-story apartments, which may pose a challenge for those with mobility issues. The pool area tends to get busy and noisy, detracting from a relaxing atmosphere. The music played at the pool bar can be distracting, disrupting the otherwise serene vibe of the resort.

The grounds of Helion Resort are stunningly well-kept, surrounded by beautiful gardens that lead down to a secluded bay. The spacious one-bedroom apartment was spotlessly clean, equipped with a full kitchen for those late-night snack cravings. The pool and bar area provide a lovely atmosphere to unwind with plenty of sunbeds available.

Noisy surroundings.

The apartments were spotlessly clean and the air conditioning was a lifesaver! ! Huge balconies offered amazing views of the gardens. Plus, the location was super convenient with a supermarket nearby!

Everything met my expectations.

the one-bedroom apartment was comfyy, spacious, and very well-equipped for cooking.

A calming retreat by the bay

From the moment we arrived at Helion Resort, we were welcomed by a team that made us feel right at home. Our spacious one-bedroom apartment was impeccably clean and equipped with all essentials like a full kitchen, making it ideal for our peaceful getaway. Relaxing on the large balcony while sipping complimentary wine gave us a gorgeous view of the beautifully landscaped gardens. The beach access was a highlight—perfect for leisurely swims in the warm, calm waters. We also enjoyed the pool area, which was never crowded and offered a fantastic bar with delightful snacks. Exploring Gouvia was a breeze thanks to the convenient location and helpful staff, especially Madalena, who enthusiastically shared local recommendations.

relaxed, relaxed, relaxed

The apartment we stayed in was tastefully decorated and provided ample storage options, making it feel incredibly welcoming. I loved lounging on the terrace, soaking up the sun, and enjoying the stunning view of the bay. The beach access was a game-changer. we relished the calm waters and abundance of sunbeds available for perfect relaxation.

totally recommend 😊❤️

The secluded bay provides a peaceful setting, with ample sunbeds available. though the kitchen could use a bit more space for comfort in meal prep.

Short, sweet, and to the point

A perfect getaway with a friendly atmosphere. Our well-decorated apartment featured all essentials and a lovely terrace. The serene beach offers ample sunbeds, while the pool bar serves delicious snacks. Easy access to local tavernas makes dining delightful. It was truly a calming experience in a beautiful location!

Lovely gardens surround the apartments, creating a peaceful ambiance. The spacious one-bedroom apartment offered a generous balcony with a beautiful view of the bay. The pool was never crowded, allowing for relaxing afternoons in the sun. Staff were always available to provide useful tips for exploring local attractions. Dining options in the area were varied, with many great restaurants within a 10-minute stroll. the beach near Gouvia wasn't the best for swimming, mainly rocky and pebbly. Accessibility can be tricky due to the distance from the village and some walkways could be improved. I encountered some noise from the main road close by, which detracted from the overall serenity.

My kids wished for a better beach entrance.

the wifi was a bit slow , but the apartment was well equipped and comfy. the pool had a lovely warm temperature and plenty of sunbeds available. friendly staff made our stay more enjoyable.
