Vitamin Sea & Sunsets
Reviewed By SRtravels96We visited Astir Odysseus the first week in June as a couple. We booked through Jet2 – which we would highly recommend, especially if going from ? M a n c h e s t e r ?. Wow, what an amazing holiday and hotel! A week flew by, and I wanted to stay so much longer, but hope to return. I think the place to start is the views, from mountains on one side to sea and island views on the other, the location of this hotel is exceptional for scenery and of course sunsets!! We even saw lightening across Turkey/Bodrum a few nights whilst staying here which was amazing to sit and watch from afar. It’s been a while since I’ve stayed in a beach front hotel, and it made me realise how much I love and have missed having a private beach right there at the hotel. The colour of the sea and the sound of the waves was beautiful to look at and listen too. One of the best things about this hotel was the lagoon/beach pool, as it was perfectly located for sea views and a sea breeze, the sunbeds were spacious (and we never had a problem getting a sunbed – no morning rushes and reserving), and the pool itself was great. It was always a little cool upon getting in, but you soon adjust to the temperature. You can order drinks to your sunbed via the app you download at check in which is a great feature. We were half board during our stay, which worked well overall. There is the option to upgrade to All Inclusive at the hotel so personally I would consider booking half board and consider upgrading at the hotel if it is better value. The drinks are around €3 for a soft drink or juice, €4 for a beer, €9 for a cocktail, so we would’ve had more to drink had we been all inclusive, but we are big water drinkers and were happy buying the large bottles of water from the hotel shop for €1 a few times a day. One of the reasons we stuck with half board was because of lunch. Lunch in the hotel is at the Argo restaurant where all inclusive have free access to a lunch buffet or can pay a reduced amount for a freshly prepared lunch (salad, pizza, sandwiches etc). We ate here and paid full price for our lunch most days but thoroughly enjoyed the food prepared, a lot more than we would have enjoyed buffet for lunch and tea every day, so it was worth it for us – everything we ate was amazing: Greek Salad, Ceaser Salad (with smoked salmon), Special Pizza, Chicken Focaccia sandwich and more. You get bread and butter before, and melon after with your lunch for free too when having a meal. Another thing to note is the Ithaka A La Carte restaurant isn’t included in All Inclusive and this is somewhere we wanted to eat so again being half board worked fine for us in this instance… PLEASE go and eat at Ikatha during your stay – it is honestly one of the best experiences and meals we’ve ever had. The service was exceptional, the views of the sunset were unbeatable, and the food was amazing. We both tried grilled octopus for the first time, and it was honestly one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! It was so quiet when we went, only us and 1 other couple in the restaurant. There are so many different room options here, so it was interesting to walk around the hotel and scope out the different types – we stayed in a basic room with garden view and we were very pleased with the cleanliness and room features we had, as well as the quietness of our room location. We did feel some rooms would be busier than ours in terms of people walking past etc. In the room there is full size bottles of shampoo, body wash and body lotion which if we’d known this would’ve saved us some packing weight. You don’t have to pay for a safe or Wi-Fi here too which is good. There really are not many negatives – not enough to put me off returning anyway – but just some things to note. We were aware of a Greek hotel tax before arriving as Jet2 has told us we would be required to pay this upon arrival to the hotel, however this didn’t happen and so we were a bit unprepared (basically forgot about it) when it was presented to us to pay at the end of our stay when checking out – so please be aware of that. It was €28 for a week for the 2 of us. The food in the main restaurant did get boring, it started off well, we thoroughly enjoyed our first evening of Greek food and the second evening was a Mexican themed night which was great but then for the rest of the holiday there was no other themes, and it became a bit repetitive in the end. The restaurant and food were lovely, and we were a big fan of breakfast (shout out to the lovely omelette guy), but I think this was the only thing we would’ve started to struggle with had we been staying longer than a week. We also, as a couple in quite a family occupied hotel, liked to go to dinner a bit later when it was quieter, sometimes after the sunset so 8:30/9pm – and it did feel like food began to run out and they weren’t refilling, so slightly less selection or fresh food. Our biggest disappointment however was not being able to get to Tingaki via bus. We had a lovely day out to Kos town, super easy to get on the bus outside the hotel and back, and we thought it would be just as simple to hop on the bus to go 5km in the other direction to the main strip on Tingaki, and the beach and/or the Salt Lake. But we were told we’d have to get a taxi which would be €12 each way, so on this occasion we decided against it which is a shame, perhaps if we went at a slightly cooler time we would’ve hired bikes and cycled there. Jet 2 state the transfer time is approx. 50 mins, but it was more like 1hr 30 – I would consider booking a private transfer next time to avoid the bus journey. Another thing to note is the size of this hotel, even on our sunbathing days we both did 10,000 + steps a day, and because our room was close to the front of the hotel it could take 10 mins to get to the end of the lagoon pool where we liked our sunbeds. It was fine for us, but good to be aware of. But honestly, if you are thinking of booking this hotel, and our looking for a hotel that has everything you need to unwind and have a fun break then DO IT. It was an absolutely amazing holiday and I have major holiday blues now – thank you Astir Odysseus.

A very well run hotel
Reviewed By Krzy42We stayed at Dimitra Beach for 10 nights in May 0f 2022. Had a bungalow with a see view which was large enough and comfortable. The meals were excellent (although being a senior I would often prefer much less salt). The waiters were fast and very nice. The cleaning lady was most helpful. If I could suggest improvements - I would let guests make their own coffee from coffee machines rather than have it served. The only thing that seemed questionable was the bathroom made of glass with no lockable door. Very little privacy. Otherwise, a first class hotel on a beautiful island.

Wonderful Week
Reviewed By Ella-g-BellaThis hotel is nothing less than stunning. Views to die for, spotlessly clean, great modern rooms. The food is incredible, the buffet is really good, the choice in a la carte well worth a visit, we always found plenty to eat in every restaurant. We’ve seen some comments about the wine, but we found the rose really lovely and one of our party is very picky. The best part about the hotel though is the staff. Every single person was lovely, really helpful and made you feel like they were pleased to see you. A special mention to the wonderful Adina who looked after us so well in the bar. One of the nicest hotels we’ve stayed in for a lovely chilled week, can’t wait to return.

Heaven
Reviewed By SCkempThis place was simply heaven on earth. Our room was a bungalow family room, with views of the gardens and sea. Comfortable and clean, excellent cleaning services. There were so many beautiful pools but we stayed at the amazing beach on a daily basis. Being brought drinks really helped! The food here is fantastic, so many little places to eat to choose from. The Gyros place for lunch was a winner on a daily basis. Definitely book into all the restaurants, they are brilliant. The drinks choice was extensive and the waiting staff super friendly. There's lots of walking and a brilliant gym. I'd go back here in a heartbeat, especially on my own ?

Excellent hotel
Reviewed By Jaket9595Amazing hotel. The staff went above and beyond for anything you need. Always very polite and welcoming. Breakfast is out of this world with a lot of choices. Fresh omlettes, poached/fried egg/pancakes/crepes/fruit and much more About a 5-7 minute walk to the closest shop for water and snacks. 10-15 minutes to the beach and same for the harbour/town, Or €6 in a taxi. Rooms and around the pool is spotless. The food is really nice but it is quite expensive and so are the drinks. The pool is very relaxing and the beds are very comfy and there is plenty for everyone The only downfall is that the pool was full of bugs all of the time and could do with someone going around with a net in the mornings. Overall a really nice hotel and i would 100% go back.

Absolutely Fantastic
Reviewed By joshuashep437The hotel is amazing, classy and luxurious with incredible levels of cleanliness that even the concrete gets mopped. The welcome lived up to the expectation of the grand entrance with a large lounge area. Facilities were incredible, the snack bar was a personal hit offering fresh crepes and much more. The restaurant has a fair variety for all and the seating area allows you to sit inside in the shade or be amongst one of the hotels many breathtaking water features. And finally the entertainment- Dominika and her team do a fantastic job at offering enjoyable activities throughout the day and on evenings the entertainment was just as good with the mini disco for the children followed by a well planned and enjoyable evening show/event. I would highly recommend to anyone whether it’s a couple or a family this hotel has it all.

Amazing, we couldn't have asked for more!
Reviewed By eavl170I'm not often moved to write a review but for this place I couldn't resist. Not only is the hotel perfect (including the comfiest sunloungers I've ever used) the staff were ALL incredible! They were kind, friendly and thoughtful going way above a beyond to help ensure our stay was perfect. I'm 5 months pregnant and they helped ensure I was comfortable with extra pillows, menu changes (all the food was great) and asked after me regularly. We're already planning when we'll be able to go back!

Fantastic hotel with amazing staff and excellent views 10/10
Reviewed By iansL6854HAWe have just finished our 2nd holiday at this amazing beach hotel and are already planning on visiting again next year. Some of the reviews you see on here absolutely amaze me as we just can't see how anybody can say they don't enjoy their stay here. Yes the hotel is on a hill and the beach is pebbly but unfortunately topography and natural erosion is out of the hands of the hotel. They are very honest in all advertising about the landscape and the beach and a simple pair of beach shoes resolves the sand issue. The hills we actually thought of positively as a way of reducing the effect of weight gain from the delightful all inclusive food and drinks by walking a little bit each day. The sea is crystal clear and you can snorkel with the fish right up on the shoreline. The facilities at the hotel are top notch there is something for everyone to do, me and my family were more than content on just chilling by the pool and sunbathing most of the time then sitting on the veranda watching the entertainment put on each evening. But I'm aware that there is a fully inclusive entertainment programme on all day everyday and heaps of other activities available from scuba diving, jet skiing, horse riding, spa massages and many more available from reception. There are day excursions available the first time we were here we did a day trip to Kos Town which is well worth a visit, and a day trip to the neighbouring island of Nisyros which is an active volcano and is and incredible experience venturing down into the crater, seeing the steam and mud bubbling and the smells, it was something we will never forget. The rooms themselves are very clean and spacious, we have stayed in a maisonette and a superior family room with shared pools, I would strongly recommend upgrading to a shared pool room if you can the pools are quiter and have some cracking views right outside your balcony. The staff at this hotel all work their socks off trying their best to ensure every guest here has the best holiday they can. Everyone from all the bar staff and dining room waiters to the front of house, concierge and cleaners all work tirelessly to make you feel relaxed and will literally do anything you ask for or need. A special mention to the 2 Eyrene's working behind the reception for greeting us always with a friendly smile and giving the children a lovely welcome gift you guys are amazing. Angelos, a huge thank you for your wonderful service in the restaurant and offering to help make sure we were fed on our last day due to leaving for our flight before the dinner service started, and for always asking where we want to sit and how we are doing everyday always with a smile. A special thank you to spiros for helping me sort out an admin issue with my family club account and making us laugh. Definitely can't wait to see you guys all again next year thank you for making our holiday amazing yet again!
