Almost stayed here, but after half an hour in the bar beside the pool we got the distinct impression that it was not the place for two young children - more like Brirts colonial club abroad, which just isn't our up of tea but I'm sure suits some.
Looked neat and tidy though, and the rooms were OK.
There are a lot more basic places to stay, so if you like your comforts this is a good choice.

Thankyou for taking your time to express your reviews on trip advisor, even after such a short visit of only half an hour!
We were very disappointed to hear that you felt it was likes a 'Brits colonial club abroad' We pride ourselves in having such a mixture of nationalities coming to stay at the hotel Patara Viewpoint. Certainly in the main European holidays you would find a greater mix of French, Dutch, Italian, German and British guests.
However September does tend to be more popular with our British guests, it is also a month in which many of our regular guests return, so it is understandable that it may have had a 'colonial club' atmosphere at the time of your visit. But had you stayed, we are sure that you would infact have thoroughly enjoyed your visit.
As for your question 'Do we like children'? YES WE DO. But for a more child focused atmosphere, you need to visit in one of the school holidays, when you will meet many families with children of all ages. We have several families who return year after year. At other times of year it is hit and miss as to whether there are other families with young children staying at the same time. But this certainly does not mean that they are not welcome.
We hope that should you visit Patara again, then you will take the time to pop in and see us and perhaps even stay.
