    There was an outdoor barbecue on one of the nights doing chicken and pork. The food was so good but it was a shame it was only once during the week we stayed..

    Food was excellent, staff were excellent, pool(s) were excellent!

    Old building. Too much walking until you reach your room - too many stairs and one lift only whose location wasn’t close to our room

    Breakfast was amazing

    The long trouser rule for dinner didn’t make sense. I understand a dress code being preferred for the evening meal, but when ladies can go to dinner in short denim shorts, a vest top and flip flops, but men have to wear long trousers, it seems a bit unfair.

    Great pool and excellent food. The staff were fantastic.

    A little far out from Kos Town. Best to rent bikes as taxis and buses are fully unreliable. It only takes 10 mins to cycle into town.

    Clean, good pools, very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfasts

    It went too quick, I wish I stayed loner 😁

    The whole vibe was amazing, the staff were super friendly. The food was great, the variety was always a bonus. The waiters would always make sure we were fully topped up. The entertainment was excellent, morning stretch class and volleyball + aqua swim was a great way to get everyone involved. Stravos ( receptionists ) was always super helpful and always maintained a smile throughout our stay. The location is excellent, just walk away from local shops and beaches. We had an incredible view from our room Overall, I Will definitely make another trip 😃

    Location is quite far out, only a €1.40 bus to town but the bus is unreliable often full/late.

    Good facility, two pools are very nice but child and family heavy. Gym outdated but enough.

    Even though the staff was so friendly, they didn’t tell you everything right away, for example mini golf is available at the hotel, you can get the yellow towels at the reception and change them every three days. Bikes are available for rent just a few meters down from the hotel. It’s only small details, but just something I would appreciate as a guest.

    It’s a spacious property with the pool at the centre of it all, it’s very easy to navigate the hotel and it offers so much! You can have lunch right by the pool, breakfast/dinner buffet either indoors or outside. They offer mini golf, tennis, spa etc at the hotel as well. Entertainment everyday (except Tuesdays) from the animation team (stretching, yoga, aquagym, table tennis, etc…) and a theme for the evening with great performances! The evening show is right by the bar and outside eating area from the buffet, so it’s hard to miss the show. The staff is so friendly, the animation team (Mikey is the best) and I would recommend anyone who want to have a relaxing vacation to go here!

    hard to reach without a car and the taxis were full. it was 45 min walk from the ferry terminal with luggage. on the return trip the hotel was able to arrange a taxi.

    It was good in general, pool, food, sun beds, near beaches etc. there is a place to rent bicycles nearby.

    Entertainment programme in the main pool / restaurant is outdated for this class, should consider a more "active" second bar alternative in the main lobby or in the second pool.

    Quiet and comfortable family room with nice view, great breakfast, pool facilities, handy location.

    The meat was super dry which was a disappointment for us, but we found that it is common for most restaurants, not just the hotel.

    Very nice hotel for families. Staff are very pleasant at all times, they assisted us with information regarding tours, shuttles to paradise beach, tickets to Lido park, car rentals and everything we wanted to know. Food was ok. Nice variety of dishes and many choices for kids as well. The rooms are SUPER quiet!! We were amazed by that.

    At breakfast time, the quality could have been better, lacked an omlette station and food quality was not as good (I.e food left standing and poached eggs not freshly made. There were long queues for pancakes due to insufficient planning ahead and pre-making and layout of queue was not great as it got in the way of hotel guests.

    Lovely grounds and pool area, refurbed superior rooms are of a great standard being modern and very clean. Evening meals in the night were of good quality and variety and staff very efficient with service on restocking buffet and clearing tables. The receptionist Emillano was so helpful and friendly, really made sure he did everything to help us. Overall a really nice hotel for a stay in Kos. Ideal location if you want to hire bikes outside of the hotel to take a trip into Kos port/ harbour that has lots of bars, restaurants and shops to explore.

    It is difficult to get into the sea from the beach because of the pebbles and the strong waves.

    Location of the hotel is very good with the bus station just across the road. The hotel architecture is beautiful and has a great pool and gardens. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. It was very easy to book daily trips at the hotel reception. The food was amazing! Every day the menu was different and exquisite. Great entertainment every evening! The beach is just across the road, walking distance from the hotel. The only down side of the beach is that it is with pebbles when going inside the water. The view from the beach is beautiful and I´ve spent a few evenings on the beach as the sunset was just fabulous! I would stay there again!

    Our room was extremely dated. We booked 3 rooms, as a family unit, and they placed us at opposite ends of the hotel. The pool was very nice but closes too early, at 6pm they ring a bell (as if you are in a boarding school). I don’t feel it’s necessary to have to dress up in long pants for supper, especially in the heat of summer. So we never dined at the restaurant, for dinner, at all. Fortunately the restaurant across the road did not have this requirement, so we dined there every evening.
