Aegean View Aqua Resort

Such an amazing hoilday from start to finish it was perfect. Me and my husband had the best week. The staff was amazing the food was good always a choice. The hotel and pool was clean and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back next year

Set in the hills overlooking Psalidi and kos town. Has its own shuttle bus to Kos Town runs every hour from 0900 to 1500. All inclusive resort, to be fair have done AI in Caribbean and it was a lot better food and drink wise there than Greece. Resort staff friendly and helpful, mini market on site. The activity team led by Mikey entertaining. Would recommend for families as a number of pools to choose from if you don’t like the beach.

Look at the map outside reception to find your room before you start looking for your room. Receptionist instructions aren’t the best and there is no signage towards rooms and guidance. Quite slippy unsafe tiles, take care when walking around. Also hidden steps with no warning quite dangerous in the dark when trying to find room. I wouldn’t recommend this holiday for anyone with accessibility requirements, or bad limbs. Lots of steps, there are some slopes but tiles are so slippy I wouldn’t trust them. Food selection really good. They have some authentic Greek foods if you want them. But also Italian/British style foods as well if you’re a fussy eater I.e plain pasta, chips etc. also I was very impressed regarding food safety and hygiene. There was someone regularly going round checking temps of food, everything looked clean also. Tip for air con in the room is to use the jet mode to give it a boost. They have a screen in the poolside bar area which did have England games on. I travelled in international break so this was quite good. Channel selection in room is very limited, just a few English news channels and a music channel. However I didn’t mind this. Drink selection was ok, varied amount of cocktails. FYI No Malibu, but they did run based cocktails (some premixed). Red, white and rose wine, beer is quite light and easy to drink. Coffee machine and hot water available to help yourself to throughout the day which was quite good. Information sheet states Sunday no room service but they still knock and come round. Overall out of summer holidays and if you can get this place at a good rate it’s more than worth every penny. The service in general isn’t great, although the staff work hard they either overdo interaction or no interaction at all.

It was a last minute deal with Travelodeal so we were not expecting much. It was a pleasant surprise to find a comfortable room, excellent food arrived fresh three times a day every day, and free drinks all day by the pool. It is a little distant from the town, but there is a free shuttle service several times a day. It was the end of the season, but there were shops and restaurants open in the town and plenty of boats offering the three islands tours. The only disappointment was the boat trip to Bodrum, which was a very unappealing city. A shopkeeper kept trying to sell us watches while we were eating lunch in a restaurant.. The reception and restaurant staff in the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Would go again.
