Astir Odysseus Kos Resort & Spa

Ein perfektes Hotel. Es gibt so gut wie nichts auszusetzen.

.

The hotel has the friendliest and most helpful staff - especially in the restaurant. The only staff I found a bit annoying were the spa ladies who tried to sell you treatments right when you come out of the main restaurant. The treatment I had was okay but not really worth the money. We had swim-up rooms and unfortunately there were ants in my bathroom which should have been noticed by the cleaning staff. The rooms were okay but you could see tear and wear on the furniture which was a shame. The property with all the plants and trees is amazing. The gardeners do a fantastic job and it is a joy to walk around the property.

Ein gelungener Urlaub in einer super gepflegten u sauberen Anlage! Das Personal war sowas von nett u dabei nicht aufdringlich, das essen war sehr vielseitig u die Pizza hervorragend!Der Getränkeservice am Pool war für uns purer Luxus-nur original Getränke. Wir werden definitiv nicht zum letzten mal hier gewesen sein !

Really good resort with good facilities

Wonderful stay, made even greater by the staff who work there. Would highly recommend. Food also top notch

Prachtig hotel, ruime en nette kamers. Het eten is lekker en toch gevarieerd (voor op zijn minst de periode van 1 week). Personeel is zeer vriendelijk. Voldoende plaats ook aan de ligbedden.

Positiv: Essen hervorragend, riesige Anlage, viele Pools. Privatstrand. Meistens bekommt man eine Liege an Strand oder Pool. Sehr familienfreundlich, toller Kids Club. Staff sehr freundlich. Negativ: Zimmer in die Jahre gekommen, keine 5 Sterne wert (Fön alt, Einrichtung alt, tv alt). Bett ist ok. Obwohl es gegen die Regeln ist, werden die Pool-Liegen von einigen Gästen reserviert. Die Liegen an sich sind auch in die Jahre gekommen. Die Familienzimmer sind in unmittelbarer Nähe zur Bühne, es wird bis 22:30 Entertainment geboten. Sicher toll für alle anderen, mit kleinen Kindern, die früher schlafen, nicht ideal.

Sehr weitläufige und gepflegte Anlage, etwas abseits gelegen, aber mit Bushaltestelle nach Kos-Stadt direkt vor der Tür. Sehr reichhaltige Speiseauswahl bei den Buffets, ausgezeichnete Qualität. Schönes, geräumiges und sauberes Zimmer (Executive Suite private Pool), toller Privatpool. Housekeeping, wie das gesamte Personal, stets sehr freundlich und bemüht. Umfangreiches Sportangebot, nettes Animationsteam. Bei den Liegen an den Pools und am Strand kann es zur Hauptreisezeit (bei uns war das Hotel Anfang August vollständig belegt) schon mal eng werden. Insgesamt eine wirklich schöne Hotelanlage, in der wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Wir werden gerne wiederkommen.

The hotel was beautiful and had amazing service. The food was great and gave plenty of options. All the staff were very friendly and helpful with everything. For an all inclusive holiday I literally couldn't guve any faults. The beach was small but nice enough. The sunset view was honesty gorgeous, we watched it evey night at the pool bar which was lovely.

Schöne Lage am Meer. Das Hotel liegt etwas abgelegen. Wenn man die Insel erkunden möchte , wird ein Auto benötigt oder man fährt mit dem Bus, der direkt vor dem Hotel hält.

Great Stay, Great Spa

The hotel was absolutely amazing! The staff were so kind and helpful and the food was a solid 10/10! Definitely worth the all inclusive package!!! The beach was nice but very rocky!

Gut

Super Aufenthalt, gutes Essen, super gemütliche Betten

The hotel is beautiful, with lovely pools and great restaurants. The beach is nice but can be tricky due to stones. On our first day, it was too windy to swim, but the sea was calm and beautiful for the rest of our stay. Beyond the stones, the water is shallow and safe for kids, with no waves. Strong swimmers can enjoy deeper waters further out. The buffet offers a good variety of food( meat, fish, pasta, pizza, fruits, sweets and ice cream). There were enough chairs at the beach and pools( second week of September). The staff was exceptional—special thanks to Lucy at reception and Anita in the restaurant. I was disappointed by the room(580), as I booked a sea view but got a partial view. After raising the issue, I was offered a room change, but the process was inconvenient. I could change only the next afternoon and was without a room for a few hours). There was no compensation, even though see view is more expensive.However, Lucy’s kindness made it hard to stay upset. I gave 3 stars for location, as there's little to do nearby on foot, and taxis can be difficult, though driving or cycling to town is easy. There is a shower room in case you stay after check out, which is well organized and practical. The staff truly elevated our experience! Well done to all of them and to the management. They are all really customer oriented. The only minus is concerning the sofa-bed. Not comfortable at all - compared with many other sofa-bed from other resorts. I could not upload fotos here

Wunderbares Essen, toller Service

Such a fabulous experience ! The staff were all amazing and very polite. We will definitely visit again .

Essen hervorragend

Her şey çok güzeldi. Eşimle birlikte çok memnun kaldık. Eşsiz hizmet için teşekkürler :)

Service: von zuhause mitgebrachte Luftmatratze (Stichwort:Nachhaltigkeit) wird nicht aufgeblasen - auch nicht gegen Entgelt! Nur möglich, wenn man im Hotel gekauft hat. Service am Strand mit Getränken und im hauptrestaurrant war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend! Besonders die Angestellten Damen! Innerhalb einer Woche wiederholt sich das Essen relativ oft -BBQ lunch ist stets das gleiche! Essen ist stets kalt - nicht mal Frühstückseier - weder Spiegelei noch gekochte Eier- sind warm. Kein Geschmack an den Speisen. Terrasse könnte abgeteilt werden auch der Strandbereich, um Erwachsenen ohne Kinder ein wenig Ruhe zu gönnen und auch um in Ruhe und gepflegt essen zu können! Großes Manko war, dass kein warmes Wasser Abend vorhanden war. Minibar wurde nicht immer aufgefüllt, obwohl täglich sein sollte (es fehlte Wasser)

The hotel is really good if you are looking for attaraction, especially with the family members. City center is a 10 minutes drive, the sea was so windy so we could not enjoy it. The staff is nice and helpful

I took my mom out on a lovely summer holiday to Astir and we’d love to be back someday! The rooms were lovely, and so were the pools, the sea water was warm which is quite a change for us. The lunch staff knew our order by heart, and everyone we spoke to provided excellent service, from reception, to the bar staff and buffet waiters, everyone was exceptionally welcoming. The food was pretty good, there’s options for everyone. We did expect there to be more fish on a regular basis, but when they did it was amazing. You’re catered for all meals if you have the all inclusive package which I’d recommend. We were pleasantly surprised with the entertainment, which we didn’t know we’d encounter! The entertainment team kept us going all day, from the water gymnastics class all the way to their shows after dinner, what a treat! They were all super lovely and made the time to speak to everyone they walked past throughout the day. The only not so positive element was the amount of children in general. I purposefully picked a hotel that didn’t seem to cater to babies and children that much but that didn’t seem to stop it being packed with families with young kids, specially around the pool entrances.

Lovely room with sharing pool. Staff very friendly. Well maintained and nice grounds. Food decent but a bit repetitive, lovely grilled fish!

Booked months in advance a sea view room however our room was a pool view of chaises and umbrellas and clearly should not be in the category of sea view. We also were half board but found the food to be o.k. We only dined 1 out of 7 nights at the hotel and chose restaurants in Kos. For the positives, our room itself was very nice and we were pleased. The bed was comfortable, pillows very good, shower had lots of hot water and did not vary in temperature. A/C worked very well. Wi Fi needs upgrading though.

Eine schöne und grosse Anlage. Grosse und mehrere Pools und ein schöner Strand, der leider erstmal Steine hat. Wenn man erst mal im Wasser ist, einfach herrlich. Die Auswahl beim Frühstück und Abendessen im Büffet, ist riesig und für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei.

Alles war super. Ich hätte mich sehr über mehr traditionelles Essen, insbesondere Moussaka, gefreut.

Très bien

Absolutely loved it. It was our first time in Kos and we will definitely return.

Mega schön ! Kann dir Doppelzimmer mit Zugang zum Pool nur empfehlen . Massage war auch super 👍 Die Damen an der Rezeption mega freundlich !! Alle Mitarbeiter haben sich bemüht

L’hôtel est conforme aux photos, ce qui est déjà pas mal ! Manque d’activités pour un hôtel 5 étoiles, si vous souhaitez faire la fête cet hôtel n’est pas fait pour vous ! Fermeture des piscines à 18h…! Repas à 19h30 et tout le monde au lit ! Gros bémol sur la nourriture, il vaudrait mieux avoir moins de choix et une meilleure qualité !!

Very nice hotel , room with pool access wonderful ..huge swimming pools..very good restaurant and nice teams every where Très bel hôtel ..chambre accès piscine magnifique ..piscines gigantesques ..très bon restaurant et toutes les équipes super sympas

Oldukça memnun kaldık diyebilirim. Odamız ferah ve büyüktü. İsteklerimiz çok fazla beklemeden karşılandı. Kesinlikle tereddütsüz tercih edeceğim bir otel ve hizmet oldukça iyi.

Wir haben wir 5 Tage Halbpension in diesem Hotel gebucht. Dabei hatten wir die Suite mit dem Jacuzzi, welchen wir nur jedem an Herz legen können! Das Personal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Die Möglichkeit der Buchung von Speisen, Getränken oder auch den Zeitraum des Essen Gehens, fanden wir als Personen der "Generation Z" sehr gut! Für ältere Personen ist das wahrscheinlich nichts. Die Ausstattung des Zimmers ist in Ordnung, allerdings nicht erwähnenswert oder 5-Sterne gerecht. Der Wohnbereich des Zimmers ist gut und halbwegs modern gestaltet, das Badezimmer allerdings schon ziemlich veraltet. Ich viele der Zimmer ohne Jacuzzi sind etwas moderner, das fanden wir schade. Der Höhepunkt des Zimmers war aber nunmal auch der eigene, Privat-Jacuzzi auf der großen Terrasse. Von der Terrasse lässt sich auf das Meer sowie die gesamte Hotelanlage blicken. Am Abreisetag machte der Jacuzzi allerdings etwas Probleme (nicht mehr geheizt, kein Wasser mehr zugeführt). Wären wir länger geblieben hätte das auf jeden Fall gestört. Das Essen ist hervorragend. Da können wir zwar nur vom Frühstück und Abendessen sprechen, allerdings wird es Mittags ähnlich sein. Auch die Preise für die Getränke bei Halbpension sind sehr human (Flasche Wasser 1.0L 2,80€). Das Buffet war jetzt zu Corona Zeiten geöffnet. Allerdings mussten alle Gäste beim gang zum Buffet ein Paar Einweghandschuhe entgegennehmen. Gerade an etwas windigeren Tagen flogen diese dann natürlich überall durch die Gegend.

Overall just a really nicestay

We had a great stay! The Service and employees are amazing. Special thanks to Stelios at the Bar and Janis from the Spa! Thank you.

War super wie das Hotel Team alles zu Corona Zeiten managed, hervorragend, sofort wieder

Das Hotel war sehr sauber. Das Zimmer war in einem gepflegten Zustand. Die Außen Anlage und Pool waren sehr schön. Restaurant hat alle COVID-19 Maßnahmen umgesetzt und darauf geachtet

Incredible resort - our second stay and just as memorable as the first. Expansive resort with great combination of fun and lively areas along with some quieter areas which we loved.

Everything is kept very clean and all the Covid rules are being applied (felt very safe in this hotel). Buffett is currently served by the very helpful staff who are all wearing masks, it takes a little longer than it would usually but it’s fine everyone understands. I’d say the mix of people at the hotel is 80/20 Germans to Brits. Plenty of sunbeds to go round ( we didn’t get round to the pool til 10am and there was always space). Only downside is the hotel isn’t walkable to local restaurants, need a 12 euro taxi to kos town or Tigaki but seeing as most go all inclusive it’s not a big issue. Overall a lovely stay.

Gute Ausstattung, Lage nah an Kos-Stadt, Anlage sehr groß und geschmackssache. Service im Restaurant sehr freundlich.

The staff were very friendly and courteous. They helped us whenever we had any problems. The food was fabulous. The environment was outstanding.

Toller Service, super Einrichtung, nur der Strandanschnitt ist nicht so schön.

Excellent property for resting and enjoying Kos. Very close to the town. Excellent service

Die Anlage ist überaus gepflegt, weitläufig und bestens ausgestattet. Viel Wasser, angenehmer Baustil, große Pools.

Astir Odysseus My family and I spent one night at the Astir Odysseus. There were some positives about the hotel - the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the pools were nice and clean. It has a nice atmosphere for a family vacation. Unfortunately we were unable to use the beach as it was closed due to high winds. Our main disappointment with the hotel was the food. We had access to the dinner and breakfast buffets. The dinner was awful. Not one dish was remotely impressive, and we all left with tummy aches. I would not recommend eating dinner at the hotel. The breakfast was not too bad, as it is hard to go wrong with a breakfast buffet. Another problem with the hotel was the way that we were rushed to check out. We received constant bangs on our door in an attempt to get us to leave, even though we were completely on time. We had the right to take our time to leave, as we were not late to checkout. We were all frantically packing and had no time to properly gather our things. As a result, my wifeleft her shirt in the room. When we later called the hotel to ask about the shirt, they said they would call back and let her know, but we never received a call. This was disappointing, and part of the reason why we most likely won’t be returning to the Astir Odysseus.

The employees were so courteous and they made you feel at home. Always smiling and going above and beyond. The food was amazing; the grounds immaculate. Very relaxing atmosphere. My daughter and I had a wonderful time!!!!

The staff is amazing. Very friendly and quick to help. Beautiful resort and very well laid out. Several families were there during our visit, but you would never know. They have several separate pool areas for families. Food was very good. Fresh.

The location of our room was super The room was beautiful The cleanliness is top class All the staff were efficient and extremely friendly The food was fab although often very very salty The drinks prices are extortionate

On arrival our hotel room booked was unavailable due to a conference. However, we were offered an alternative room which was an upgrade and had a shared pool which was very large and always quiet. Thank you. There are 2 main pools, one in the middle of the resort and the other approx 30 meters from the beach which was lagoon style and absolutely massive. There were lots of sun beds available although some people put there towels down at 7am in the morning to get prime spots though the hotel had a no reservation policy. We went to the private beach everyday as had a lovely sea breeze throughout the holiday which kept you nice and cool under the hot sun. Later in the day we swam in the lagoon pool. The beach bar served its of cocktails, tea, coffee and cakes. We were on all inclusive board so everything we wanted was available. Bar staff always friendly, smiling and wanted to help at all times. The main restaurant served buffet style for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food was of an excellent standard. Always a great variety of choice for meat, fish and vegiterian appetites. Also there were several cooking stations preparing different foods to add to the variety. The sweet and fruit choices were also plentiful and wholly enjoyable. The Animation Team worked very hard to entertain the guests and were always so polite, friendly and made the activities they offered very enjoyable. A fantastic 9 night stay. We hope to return.

The bath in my room was too small, everythings else was great.

A great resort! Excellent in everything!

Fantastic hotel lovely room was very clean. Service was great all of the staff work extremely hard. Food was very good. Pools were great, lots of activities for everyone. Would definately stay again. Definately 10 out of 10. I think that men have to wear long trousers for dinner needs relaxing its out of date there is nothing wrong with smart shorts especially when temperatures were up to 35degrees. But women could wear shorts ,vests and flip flops don't get it !!!

Very nice hotel, with activities for the entire family. Good food, staff is great. Only disadvantage is the wind...its a windy area was too cold to get into the pool/sea

Well maintained beautiful grounds. Great pools. Professional staff. Fun and lively entertainment team. Excellent all you can eat food! Wish I had more time there!

Food was OK, but not more. But that's what you get when you offer so many different meals. (Everything good, but not perfect) Everything else was great!

Great place. Very quiet and peaceful. There is a pool every place you go. Even when the hotel is fully booked, you will find your relaxing zone.

Very professional and great team who work from the heart. Lovely accommodations, well-planned and beautifully groomed grounds, great food catering to all dietary requirements. Had a truly fantastic time and plan on going back.

My friend and I were in the part of the hotel which had just been refurbished and the room was really really nice, amazing bathroom, high standarts, direct access to a semi-private pool. Main areas of the hotel were not as nice but still ok. Really it's a hotel for families with kids. Loads of entertainements and activities available so not so much the quiet kind of hotel. Food in the main restaurant is ok but if you want organic, healthy or even greek food, that's not the hotel for you. People working there are extremely nice and always there to help.

We came here to celebrate my 30th birthday and my partner finishing his degree and also ended up getting engaged whilst we were there. We couldn't of asked for a better hotel. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. The facilities were clean and to a high standard. I would highly recommend it here.

The hotel has two massive swimming pools and two excellent restaurants. Would suit families well as plenty of activities. Would recommend it if you fancy a lazy holiday.

Nice hotel for families. Very pro-kids, we liked it. Got a welcoming gift as a surprise on our first night, which was very nice.the beach was a bit of dissapointing, not a sandy one.

Nice hotel, however because we initially booked for 2 people (a mistake) the hotel charged us somewhere close to 100 euros a night for one extra person when the room could already accomodate and physically fit 3 people (2 TWIN beds and 1 SOFA). I have no issue with the notion that the room rate is based on how many adults there are, however most hotels will charge between 30-50 euros for another person IF they even charge. Most hotels I have stayed in have been much friendlier, reasonable and approachable in such circumstances and often just waived the extra charge. Close to 100 euros I personally find too expensive but the most disturbing part was the customer service approach to the matter which I found unsatisfactory

We had a great time at Astir Odysseus, there was always chairs around the pools and umbrellas. Food was great with plenty of choice. Loved the pools, I liked the one by the sea, my daughter liked the one near our apartment, both very good. Staff always willing to help.

great complex on the beach everything from the staff to the rooms,food fantastic entertainment all the time is great if the wifi worked better it would be the perfect place

Greate hotel. Beautiful location, quality food and service. Doesn't feel overcrouded even when it is full.

Excellent resort on northern coastline of Kos island, 5 min drive away from Tigaki village. 10 min drive to Kos town in opposite direction. Resort sits in the middle of nowhere, there is nothing around except grass and catle farms. What makes a difference from other places - people! Smiling and open employees, nothing was too much for Odysseus staff, with whatever request you will come up. Very well done! Resort is right place very to work up some tan, unwind and relax in decent SPA, but it might become boring if you are up to non-stop activities. Lovely and colourful exterior, spotless huge rooms, plenty of sunloungers and usual animation stuff. Had a fun during week to find anything to complain about but ended empty handed. Breakfast buffet (Greek + International) is repetitive every morning, but then again there are so many choices that one can suit his/her needs. Dinner buffet changes every day with plenty varieties to choose from. Bottom line - highly recommend to everyone looking for comfort place to get away from NW Europe's non-existent summer.

Myself, boyfriend, mother and sister arrived at the hotel very late and the reception staff were amazing they had sandwiches and drinks waiting for us. We cannot fault this hotel we were also entitled to a free 15min spa treatment with the opportunity to upgrade. Food was amazing be prepared to over indulge. Only 2 things and they are very small the gym could be doing with an upgrade or check up as some of the equipment didn't work and the rooms don't have double beds it's 2 large single beds pushed together with 2 single covers. But we are already looking to book up for next year.

fantastic hotel,food,grounds. only downside was attempting to get in the sea off the beach, stones and rocks everywhere. much nicer beach just up the road. pool was fantastic. food was great, choice good, two fish dishes every night and loads of choice. al a carte was a set menu, but a great location of the beach, still a set menu for a la carte........oops. fantastic location off the beaten track.

Thourghly enjoyable experience, Room with Pool access was certaingly worth the upgrade, would recommend this to anyone especially in the hotter periods

For someone who frequently stays at hotels all around the world, I must say, this hotel outstanding, amazing service and the food was excellent.Staff did everything possible to make our stay memorable. The location is incredible, beautiful pools one side, and the raw beauty of the sea on the other.

Not quite what the pictures but when is it. Hotels was nice, clean and spacious. It could do with another restaurant as only one place to eat breakfast and dinner (apart for the a la carte which you can used once). Although saying this the different choice of food is really good so you never have to eat the same thing. The theme nights every night gives you more choice as well. Pool was nice, plenty of sunbeds available but did notice it was getting a lot busier towards the end of our week's holiday (beginning of July). Staff are helpful and friendly and entertainment is good and not too much for too long. All inclusive included all top branded drinks, cocktails. The only thing we paid for was a bottle of nicer wine when we ate a la carte but this was only about £5! The rooms were comfortable and cleaned every day as well as our drinks in the room fridge re-stocked. The balcony was spacious. We had 2 single beds pushed together with single covers which was a shame.

We had a lovely week here the reception staff were extremely helpful in overcoming a difficult situation with regard to having a walk in shower for an elderly lady travelling with us we can't thank them enough. The bar staff and restaurant staff were all lovely Plenty of choice of lovely food. The animation team work extremely hard and do a wonderful job. Overall the Hotel does all it can to make the holiday very enjoyable. The best rooms are the pool suites and the seafront suites.

I can definitely tell everything was excellent from the beginning to the end. Staff very helpful, always smile on the face, food great and so many choices, Greek kitchen is fantastic, flexible meal times, as if you have some plans to go on trips or so and have half board it is possible to move your dinner to lunch with early notice. Hotel beautiful itself, so quiet, nicely done pool areas and see side fine also. Bus stop just around the corner, to get to Kos town takes about 15min. 2EU, back by taxi only 12EU, bikes and cars also available to rent. Internet was a bit hard to get, if there would be computers to use in a hall or somewhere, would be great, as my phone and "tablet" gone mad and I couldn't do anything. Other then that we had wonderful time. We highly recommend this hotel without any doubts. Thanks to all staff for such nice time and care. P.S. To get to hotel from/to airport we were using A2B service, shuttle bus - excellent and cost only 14EU.

Iberostar Odysseus did exactly what we wanted it to do - provided a no brainer holiday. I was very impressed by the efficiency of the management who responded to any queries very quickly and efficiently and always to our satisfaction. The buffet was lavish and the food of a delicious standard. The staff were helpful and friendly. The large reception area was a great area to spend the evening. Renting bikes for an excursion to Kos town was a great success, too.

The hotel delivered all our expectations. It is beautiful, clean, good food, good service. It has a small beach area with pebbles that can be painful to walk on, but the hotel installed sand bags allowing you to walk in comfortably until reaching the sandy floor of the sea and that made a HUGE difference. We spent most of our time there as the water is so clean and clear. Highly recommend this hotel to others.

I loved the service at this resort! My wife and I honeymooned here in May of 2013. From the moment we checked in, we knew we were at a special place. The staff were quite courteous and willing to extend a hand to us when we had any requests. The pools were excellent as pictured, and the location was reasonably close to Kos town, although it was not directly adjacent to much but a few other resorts. I would stay here again if we make it back to Kos!

Lovely hotel with friendly staff. Everything was really more 4-stars though, so don't get your hopes up too much!

Went away to relax and unwind and this hotel made it happen. Having the choice with the two mains pools was brilliant as the pool near the main part of the hotel was relaxed and was never too busy. I would say that the buffet for lunch and dinner in the main restaurant was very repetitive so would recommend to mix it up by having the lunch at the beach Grill Restaurant And the dinner at the main restaurant. The hotel has a company where you can hire out bikes, quad bikes, mop heads, bicycles and buggy's for next to nothing money. Me and my partner hired the buggy for around €50 for the whole day and went to a village up the mountain called Zia (very quaint little village) and also drive round the otherwise of the mountain to Therma (the sea is heated by the gas within the mountain) great views and lovely experience.

Staff in restaurant rude and unhelpful . Double standards on dress policy. Management who walk away when you are talking to them . Would not go back.

We had a great time. Hotel beautifully maintained and spotless. Food excellent with plenty of choice and options varying significantly from day to day. Staff all pleasant and welcoming and service standards high.

we enjoyed our stay very much , was very relaxing and pleasent

Pleasant and helpful staff. Hotel adequate. Food aveage. No real beach.

This is an amazing hotel, so much so it feels like you're escaping into a world of luxury and tranquillity after an adventurous day on the Island that could get messy. This hotel is huge and will almost cater to your every demand, the rooms are outstanding. The beds are excessive and luxurious and really make you feel very well looked after and spoilt. The decorative pools make for a very beautiful setting in the evening when the lights are turned on. Now there are a lot of positives and would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Kos but there are a few downsides. The shower/bath is not really up to standard and the water flickers from hot to cold. The beach at the hotel is pretty rubbish so it is highly advised you rent a vehicle and explore the Island, The stretch of beaches around Paradise Beach is a good shout for clear water sandy beaches. Kardamaina for crystal clear stoney beaches. One last thing the eggs for breakfast are a no go, my girlfriend tried the scrambled egg a few times and smelt as though it had gone off. However the waffles 'made fresh in front of you' with nutella equivalent are unbelievably good!!! All in all amazing hotel, go half board so you can explore the Island in the day time, you can rent a moped at the hotel and to be fair they look like the newest bikes on the Island. Oh also forgot to mention they have a buffet restaurant and an a la carte restaurant with Greek and Italian theme menus. Both for half board but in our opinion the buffet won!

Room and facilities were high spec, very clean and well maintained. Would recommend private pool rooms if you can afford the upgrade...these looked lush!! Previous all inclusive offers have been disappointing but we had no issues or disappointments with this hotel - we never felt the need to pay for anything that would have cost us extra. The buffet was varied and food always good quality, the salad was particularly impressive in variety and freshness! We were a little disappointed by the 'a la carte' option that we tried one night as we expected it to be more special but it was still good food and the beach front setting at sunset was lovely. Staff were all very hardworking, helpful and friendly. As a couple, we did feel there were a lot of kids around but it didnt really detract from our enjoyment. The hotel was very 'child friendly' for families. Taxi into Kos Town (recommend) was 12euros or bus runs every hour from hotel every hour for 3.20euros return (available to buy from hotel) and takes bout 15mins.
