MYTH: “Reception is just smiling and handing out key cards.”
REALITY: You are the first and last impression of the hotel. You manage arrivals, departures, questions, and day-to-day coordination — in an international environment.
MYTH: “It’s basically an easy desk job.”
REALITY: It’s structured and fast-paced. During peak times you handle multiple guest situations at once, stay organized, and keep the process smooth.
MYTH: “Check-in is the only important part.”
REALITY: You manage check-in and check-out, guest requests, basic administration, and daily communication with housekeeping and other departments.
MYTH: “Guests are always relaxed because they’re on holiday.”
REALITY: Most guests are happy — but some are tired, stressed from travel, or have problems that need quick solutions. You stay professional, calm, and friendly in every situation.
MYTH: “If you speak English, that’s enough.”
REALITY: English is required. German and/or French are a strong advantage because many guests feel most comfortable speaking their native language — and it makes you more effective at the desk.
MYTH: “It’s repetitive and boring.”
REALITY: Every day is different. Different nationalities, different requests, different challenges. You’ll coordinate with multiple teams and learn quickly how a hotel operates from the inside.
MYTH: “You’ll have no life because you work too much.”
REALITY: It’s real full-time seasonal work — yes. But after your shift, you’re in Greece. Warm evenings, beach sunsets, international colleagues, and a season that feels like a different world compared to home.
MYTH: “Reception in a resort isn’t real career value.”
REALITY: Resort reception is serious experience. You build communication skills, stress-resistance, operational understanding, and real hospitality confidence — in an international setting.
Important: This position is based in Greece. You relocate for the full season and live where others spend their holidays. EU passport required.
If you want a professional front office role with international experience — and you’re ready to spend your season in Greece — apply now and join our reception team.
Requirements
MYTH: “You don’t need experience if you’re confident.”
REALITY: This role works best for people who already have experience in reception, hospitality, tourism, or customer service. You should feel comfortable with systems, procedures, and responsibility.
Benefits
MYTH: “Working abroad means struggling with accommodation.”
REALITY: You don’t need to search for housing, pay deposits, or sign long rental contracts. Accommodation is organized before you arrive, and you live close to or on-site at the hotel.
MYTH: “Food abroad is expensive, so you won’t save anything.”
REALITY: Meals are included. With accommodation and food covered, many team members spend far less than at home and can actually save money during the season.
