Ikos Reviews

Fabulous hotel and lovely friendly staff. We will be back.

I loved it last September shortly after hotel opened with friends and immediately arranged a family holiday for 14, including 6 children, this year. Worried that wouldn't be as good this year but it was even better with established gardens and some additional facilities so everyone was thrilled and couldn't believe standard of accommodation, food, drinks and wide range of attractions/sports facilities. We ate in all the a la carte restaurants as well as the "Dine out" opportunity in one of the village tavernas. They are all fabulous, as was Flavors the buffet restaurant open every mealtime. Everyone wants to return! Hotel runs short coach excursions for €10; a few of us tried the trip to Nea Moudania, the capital of the region, for the farmers market. Not a lot there and definitely not a typical Greek town/village with white-washed walls and geraniums, as it is all apartments and just a small commercial town and fishing port so wouldn't recommend it. Wouldn't put me off the other excursions though if I return.

Ikos Olivia is a perfect resort for families with children of all ages. There are plenty of activities for the children and adults. The service provided by all of the staff is of top quality and the hotel manager and assistant hotel managers consistently ensure all of your needs and wants from a holiday are met. We booked our second stay a week after returning home which says a lot considering we have never returned to a resort we've previously visited.

I have already written to the manager at the Ikos Olivia (soon after we got back to the UK).

To repeat; this was our second visit to the hotel and we were just as delighted with our stay as we were on our first holiday.

The accommodation was superb, all the restaurants offered first class food with excellent, service and the hotel staff were outstanding - everyone was friendly, courteous and extremely helpful - nothing was too much trouble.

My wife and I look forward to returning in the near future.

This was one of the best holidays we have had!

The food was tremendous.

The service was out of this world and the staff amazing.

Value for money was unbelievable , If I had paid twice the amount it would still have been amazing.

The magic no. is 9.....reception , could not be more helpful for everything. help.

As a family, this holiday was everything we were expecting and more. From the warm welcome on arrival and all throughout our stay we received such a high level of hospitality. The quality of food, be it in the buffet or the Greek, Italian or French resturants we ate at was excellent. Being beach lovers, the attention from all the staff there was great, nothing too much trouble and everything done with a smile. Entertainment in the evening had a good variety and the bar staff work tirelessly to ensure drinks flowed!

Rooms were kept spotlessly clean, nothing was too much trouble. Room service was always prompt and again, everyone so friendly always doing whatever it took to make us all happy.

A truly wonderful week and a resort we hope to visit again - soon.

Upon arrival we were offered an upgrade to a superior garden bungalow, which was stunning. The staff throughout the hotel were friendly and helpful. As soon as you sat down someone came and asked if they could get you a drink. The resort didn't seem overcrowded and we were always able to find a sun bed, pools were heated which was great as it was the beginning of the season. The restaurants were very good with an excellent choice of wines. The hotel was spotlessly clean and rooms cleaned daily. The only downside was not much outside the hotel, we like walking but there wasn't much to see, but there isn't any need to leave. We would definitely return.

It's so good, I have already booked again October.. How's that? Twice in a year.

Wonderful hotel. Amazing staff. Lovely rooms. Great food including adult only area. Loads of pool choices. Great evening entertainment. Proper all inclusive Including pedals, bike hire, beach towels. Made to feel so special and like nothing is too much trouble, the staff just want you to have the best time and wait on you hand and foot. If you just want to relax for a week then this is the holiday for you. We will definitely return.

A lovely restful holiday - the hotel was beautiful and our room was large, airy and comfortable. The staff were superb - nothing was too much trouble for them and every member of staff we met from the manager and bar staff to the gardeners and restaurant teams were polite and cheerful - delightful

Met every expectation, stayed in a deluxe bungalow, food fantastic service fantastic pool was warm no complaints all.

Have recently returned from a wonderful holiday at IKOS Olivia. We were a three generation family and found the hotel location, amenities, dining options and above all, amazing staff first class. Our three year old granddaughter was so happy at the pools and beach, we were all able to relax and enjoy our holiday. Would definately recommend for families with young children. The extensive wine list and variety of dining options made meal times a pleasure especially being able to dine overlooking the ocean. Will definately return.

Amazing place with beautiful views. The food was consistently really good, especially in the buffet. It's totally set up for kids with every imaginable accessory available (bed guard, steriliser, bottle brushes etc). There was baby food and puree in the buffet every meal time. its the best holiday of this type (family all inclusive) that we have been on and the only one we all agree we would actually return to! Can't recommend highly enough.

My husband and I absolutely loved this hotel, from the moment we arrived and were taken by a smiling receptionist through to the bar, given a glass of sparkling wine and told that we wouldn't need to do anything for the rest of the week we knew we were in for a brilliant holiday!

The hotel is beautiful, food and drinks are the best quality and the service was fantastic. The evening entertainment in the bar was excellent to and good fun. All staff were so friendly and welcoming. We would love to come back for another holiday soon.

We had the most fantastic stay at the Ikos Olivia.

Highly recommend the bungalow rooms. Everything was absolutely perfect, always clean, top quality food, excellent service and plenty of activities.

We also thoroughly enjoyed the spa and evening entertainment.

A wonderful place to relax and unwind :)
