    Only a few Greek cuisine dishes are on the menu in the local bar.

    The location was beautiful, a 10-minute walk to town. It was very close to the local supermarket, and the environment was clean and spacious. The rooms were airy, facilities were minimal and very clean. Panagiotis, the host was amazing, friendly, and tailored his knowledge to our needs. We could not have had a more welcoming first time experience in Kos because of him! HE MADE OUR TRIP!

    Nothing! Having to leave to go home!

    Amazing facilities, extremely clean and modern room (I literally couldn’t fault it). Stunning views from the balcony and the bathroom appeared newly renovated. The grounds of the hotel are well kept including the pool and bar area, cleaner attends daily and does a really good job of keeping the room fresh. The staff are exceptional and go above and beyond to make your stay perfect, especially the owner Pete who literally sorted our entire stay from start to finish - he has excellent knowledge of the island and makes some great recommendations. He organised our boat trip for us ensuring we get on the best one available. Not a bad word to say!

    Nothing it was all excellent. Walk to town is 10 to 15 mins so would not suit anyone with disability or doesn't like walking.

    Taxi arranged to pick us up from airport and Pete was waiting for us when we arrived. He informed us of all facilities and all we needed to know regarding our stay. Great restaurant recommendations. Would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again if travelling to kos again. Lovely place for a relaxing safe sun holiday.

    Everything! This was our third stay at Gelli and we were so happy to return. Our host Pete as always is very sociable, welcoming and willing to help with anything - he goes above and beyond to ensure his guests have a wonderful time. Our suite (with sea view) was very spacious and comfortable with a large balcony and the bathroom has been renovated to a beautiful modern standard. We like to do some self catering so the equipped kitchen was very much appreciated. The pool and bar area is a great place to relax and socialise with other guests and it is a short walk into town. Pete also organised for a rental car to be delivered for us. Thank you Pete for being such a caring host.

    The Apartment was lovely, all the staff especially our host Pete (not his full name) were friendly and couldn't be any more helpful. Although the apartments are a little bit out of town (which was nice an quiet, perfect for us) , it was only a 15 minute walk into the old town with lots of nice restaurants and shops to explore. The water front is only an additional 5 minutes walkI would not hesitate to recommend the appointments as a great holiday destination.

    Previous reviews say it all really, we loved our stay at Gelli Apartments. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Food, drinks and pool were all perfect and it's an easy 10 minute walk to the old town. Kos itself is a really lovely mix of activities and relaxation. The staff were incredible, so friendly and helpful, especially Pete who helped us with bookings and taxis. I'm so glad we picked these apartments to stay and would definitely recommend.

    Nothing to fault at all

    The owner Pete and his staff are amazing. The apartments are spacious and newly renovated. They are in a great location, walking distance to Kos town. Pete and his staff want their guests to have the best possible time while staying at their apartments, they were all extremely helpful and friendly. When you arrive at the apartments, Pete will supply you with a map of the island and write down some restaurants, bars and beaches that he recommends visiting, do yourself a favour and try visit as many of Pete's recommendations as possible, not a single one of them disappointed! Which in result, made our trip to Kos unbeatable! Pete also organised our scooter hire and taxi to the airport, our stay at Gelli apartments was a breeze and completely stress free! Highly recommend!

    We loved our stay at Gelli apartments, great location for exploring Kos town with good public transport to other destinations in Kos. The apartment exceeded our expectations, it was modern and very clean with a newly renovated bathroom. Panagiotis was very welcoming and helpful offering many suggestions for things to do in the local area, all of which were excellent. He went out of his way to make our stay as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. All in all a fantastic trip, would highly recommend staying at Gelli apartments.

    We had an exceptional experience at this place, and it was all thanks to PETE. From the moment we checked in, he greeted us with a warm smile and took pride in showcasing the fantastic apartments. PETE went above and beyond by offering recommendations on where to dine, grab a drink, and explore the sights of Kos town. He even graciously provided transportation each night during our stay and arranged our airport taxi, seeing us off with a thoughtful gift. Every member of the staff we encountered was incredibly friendly, making our stay even more enjoyable. I would give this place a solid 5-star rating without hesitation. The apartment we stayed in was truly remarkable, characterized by its cleanliness and modern amenities. Not to mention, the views of Kos and the sea from our room were breathtaking. The pool area was another highlight, complete with a fantastic pool bar. In summary, our experience here was nothing short of amazing, thanks to PETE and the entire staff. If you're looking for a memorable stay in Kos, I highly recommend this place.

It is only a short walk into Kos Town and there is a small shop that is well stocked only down the road. The owner Pete is great. From the moment we arrived he went above and beyond for us. He gave us a map of the Kos with all his recommendations of restaurants, bars, things to do, and would book anything we wanted.

    Honestly nothing!

    The property was very nice and clean. I would say it was spotless. We felt so comfortable staying there. The best surprise was the brand new updated bathroom!! Clean bathroom, brand new shower sink and rest room. Squeaky clean. The location of the hotel is perfect and it’s not only beautiful from the inside. The entire property gets a lot of love and looks very nice. Aside from the hotel just being super comfortable. You can access the pool, there is a bar and you can get food and drinks. The staff is amazing. They made sure to give us the best advice on how to travel the island. Thanks to Panna we were able to get the best plan on how to travel the island. Everyone else on staff was very nice too. This hotel deserves way more stars than it has. It’s a 10/10 for sure and I would give more points if I could.

    Wouldn’t change anything.

    Had a great stay at Gelli apartments. Pete is a superb host and couldn’t be more helpful and will take time out of his day to assist you in anything you need. He provided us with a lot of great recommendations for the duration of our stay that definitely made our time in Kos more enjoyable. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the newly fitted bathrooms are lovely. The pool area is also great, has everything you need and a special mention to Steve for the cocktails! Would highly recommend. Great value for money and would definitely return if I’m planning on staying in Kos again.

    A couple of the Sun loungers were broken and need replacement. However there we’re always enough to go around.

    Room Twin room newly renovated. Excellent facilities all finished to a high standard. Wine on the table, fruit in the fridge. Staff Pete is the hardest working person I’ve ever met. He is not just the owner he is also the receptionist, cleaner and gardener. Pete organised our taxi for us. He also recommended some excellent restaurants that are not typical tourist traps. Pete will organise bike and car hire as well as book trips too. He is cheerful, friendly and will go above and beyond for guests. Facilities Pool is lovely with lots of Sun loungers. There is a restaurant/bar that serves from breakfast until late at night. Prices are reasonable. Location About a 15 minute walk to the city of Kos. 15 minutes walk to lots of restaurants (we also went a bit further afield and walked about 25 minutes to one restaurant). There are tourists attractions nearby as well with Casa Romana about 15 minutes walk.
