Recommended lovely hotel
A fabulous hotel and a very relaxing break. We are in the rooms opposite the crowing chickens but we quite like the noise. It’s otherwise a very peaceful side of the hotel. The room is extremely large and comfortable and the staff seem friendly. There are plenty of areas to sit so it doesn’t feel crowded. I love the well fed cats and the beautifully maintained gardens. I like the layout and the low level of the buildings. The entertainment side doesn’t really interest me but they certainly seemed to be getting people involved without being too pushy. It didn’t bother us that it was a small distance to Kos town and it’s a flat walk. We did hire the electric scooters to get back but it was a nerve-wracking experience and I was somewhat out of control on it! We liked the food although I do find half board an odd concept these days and not particularly convenient for us. The drinks were also quite expensive and the white wine was not nice at all. Personally, I’d rather B&B or all-inclusive but that’s just my opinion and we knew what we were getting when we booked. We are still here at the moment and so hoping that the rest of our stay is as pleasant as it has been so far.

A great experience throughout
Extremely pretty hotel. The rooms had everything you need, breakfast had a lot of variety and no issues getting a sun bed. The hotel is around a 6 minute taxi ride the Kos old town which provides a huge amount of dinner options. I’d like to give a special shout out to Fredo, Joy & Mercy (the entertainment team) who hosted some great activities and are some of the friendliest individuals I’ve met. All in all a great experience and would thoroughly recommend.
Very Nice Hotel and close to Kos Town
The Hotel was very nice and the Room was clean. The Pool was close by and plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas. Staff were very professional and we were well looked after. The Food was varied and there was plenty of choice. The only downside was the Cockrell nearby who was in full vocal mode from 4am every morning so if you are facing that way be prepared for noise.

Nice hotel, shame about location and prices
Overall a nice hotel. Great daytime entertainment for 2 teenage boys. Lots of sun loungers. The location isn’t great , a long walk into town dodging scooters and cyclists, plus lots of abandoned and empty shops and units. No decent supermarket in close proximity, a very long walk. The hotel supermarket very limited choice and very expensive. Likewise the hotel bar very expensive , 10 euro for a single gin and tonic. Nice hotel but wouldn’t go back because of location.

Great hotel but some things to note
Lovely hotel very clean and no problems with the room or pool. Some things to be aware of and these aren’t complaints at all… We travelled with our almost 3 year old and struggled with nowhere obvious to dispose of nappy bags outside of the room. The coffee machine in the breakfast hall is really quite complicated to use, luckily there was always a very obliging member of staff to help! The taxis to Kos town are very unreliable, you must pre-book at reception 2-3 hours before you want the taxi to appear. We had an occasion where the hotel got our room number wrong and the driver almost didn’t let us have the car which was a bit annoying. Taxis back from Kos town you must queue for which was a bit tricky with a little one. Hotel would really benefit from a shuttle service to Kos town. The beach is also very pebbly and quite tretcherous to enter the sea - worth noting if you are elderly or not great on your feet. Food is excellent and staff were great, several cats living at the hotel which we loved. The kids pool is great and the aqua aerobics was very fun to watch. Never had an issue getting a sun bed. Handy mini mart on site with all the essentials. Overall atmosphere is very relaxed.
