Top Kefalos Hotel Reviews

Mitsis Selection Blue Domes

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the self service stations for food whenever, and the number of bars was also great. Loved the number of pools and our private one with access to bigger pool was perfect. Only bad thing was We did the Candle Light dinner, which they forgot to setup when we arrived, so had to come set it up whilst we waited watching, forgot the candles, fairy lights didn’t work etc. Food was good at least. They kindly refunded half the amount due to this which made it worth the money in the end."

White Olive Marine Aquapark - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Cannot fault the hotel, staff or facilities. We have previously been to Aquasis in Turkey and this is relatively the same but on a smaller scale. Pools were great, food was excellent with plenty of choice, and the drinks menu was substantial and the resort was of a high standard. Obviously not a 5 star resort but close enough and right on the beach. We had no issues all week, we did have a smell in the room on the first day but this turned out to the room not being in use for a few days and the common Greece drains smell ssues you see everywhere, but once in use it went away and was no issue afterwards. We stayed in a family suite, side sea view and can honestly say it was probably one of the best rooms with a fantastic view of the sea and turkey/ other Greek Islands, with the bonus of being around the main pool but at the deeper end so no kids noise! 3 adults and one teenager, you really could ask for a better holiday for the price. Excellent"

Neptune Luxury Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The resort was lovely. Large with lots of pools and restaurants. The staff was very helpful throughout our stay. The rooms are a bit old and not very luxurious, compared to the hotel which is very nicely renovated, but clean and well kept."

Mitsis Norida

10/10 Excellent

"Accommodation was lovely. Any small issues were dealt with very quickly. All staff were helpful and friendly. Quality of food was excellent and surpassed our expectations. Pools and beach were wonderful. We would definitely return."

OKU Hotel Kos - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"Property was very well maintained as well as the rooms. All meals were very well presented and excellent in taste."

Grecotel Casa Paradiso

8/10 Good

"Perfect for families. Step free access for those with pushchairs, although, when you’re there, it’s unlikely you would need to use it. The swimming pools are lovely and clean. Beach towels are provided so no need to pack your own. The rooms are quite spacious. Lovely modern bathrooms. We did have a bit of an ant problem in our bathroom but nothing too problematic. There’s a wide choice of food at the buffet. They grow a lot of their fruit and veg on the premises. You will see vegetable patches between the bungalows. Staff were very attentive and friendly. The children’s area is a little tired and could do with a refresh. Otherwise, a very lovely resort. Recommend booking your transfers to and from the airport. There are taxis but you could be waiting a long time for them. It can be costly depending on where you’re going. We befriended a taxi driver who took us into the town centre so used him again to take us to the airport. Also recommend getting to the airport a minimum of 3 hours ahead on the way home. Checking in and getting through security is a lengthy processes and quite a few of us had to get fast tracked to our plane because it started boarding by the time we made it to Duty free."
