This place is absolutely amazing, I can't recommend it enough. In August, Yeorgia and Fotis managed the place and they were two of the kindest people we met in Kos. They greeted us with a smile every day and made us laugh. They treated us like friends and we felt so welcome. The music was great, the sun loungers were top-notch, and the beach was peaceful. We're already planning to come back next year and hope everything stays the same!

We ordered the fish platter for two, which was quite generous (maybe even a bit too much for me 😂). The house wine was excellent, just like our attentive waitress. Don't forget to try matiska, a delightful sweet liquor from Ios (I might have spelled it wrong, but the staff will definitely be familiar with it!).

This hotel is ideal for a relaxing summer getaway. The staff were incredibly friendly, the food was delicious and varied each day, the beach is just a short 2-minute walk away, the surroundings are stunning, and there are plenty of activities to keep you entertained. I can't think of anything negative to say. Just keep in mind that the nearest city is a 30-minute walk away, but you won't feel the need to visit it. We had an amazing time and I highly recommend this hotel!
