Ikos Aria

Outstanding resort with fantastic staff. Wonderful location. Stayed in a delux beach fronted bungalow and also delux with private pool. Both rooms were excellent and very close to delux bar and seasons which we used most days and was outstanding. Also used most of the restaurants which were all high quality food and wines. Also used the dine out option which was a lovely evening. Made use of the Bikes everyday which was a great way to explore some wonderful beaches. Also had use of the Tesla for a day which was very enjoyable. Spa and Gym of high quality. All the staff at the resort were outstanding and we got to know many. In particular Zuzi, Magda, Erinda, Nika, Dominik, Klara, Thomas, Cheyenne, Yiannis, Valentin, Paulso and Husein made this a very memorable stay. Thank you - Barry & Penny Robinson

Don’t believe the hype. This is the worst ‘luxury’ hotel I have ever stayed in. I strongly recommend you read this review before booking. I am at the hotel at the moment and have been for 2 days. It has been one disgrace after another. We have a deluxe suite which has cost us £6000. In just two days the issues have been as follows: 1. The room service food has been cold every time and is cheap and nasty 2. The deluxe restaurant breakfast was also cold and inedible 3. The room is completely exposed and overlooked from all sides - all rooms are. There is no privacy unless you stay in your room with the curtains closed 4. The tv did not work. We requested some fix it. We were told they’d come in the morning. They didn’t come until the afternoon which ruined our plans 5. Room service hammer on your day at 9:30. Even if you don’t answer they stand outside your door having loud conversations 6. Downstairs rooms have a lot of foot and furniture noise from rooms above 7. We were given the wrong menu for our room 8. We had to queue for 15 mins whilst we waited for the Tesla staff member to turn up 9. The “concierge” spam you with relevant event notifications but when you need them do not respond for ages 10. We’ve had earwigs and flies in the room 11. The garden parasol is fixed so if you want to sit in the exposed garden you have to sit in one spot. Portable ones are not available. 12. We asked to move rooms and were told repeatedly, including by the manager, that the hotel is full and therefore it’s not possible for people to move. Later that day we heard that another couple had been upgraded to a different room. When I asked why we had been misled I was given no explanation just more “we want you to be happy” messaging with no actual plan to do anything. Keep in mind that all of these issues are just in 2 days. A hugely expensive holiday that is the worst food and room and service of my life. Strongly recommend you try somewhere else. There are so many great hotels, airbnbs and hills on the Greek island. This is not one of them.

AMAZING...We had the most special week at Ikos Aria and would go back in a heartbeat. Beautifully kept grounds, immaculately clean hotel, food first class, decor out of this world but above all of that, was the staff. Everyone was so lovely, kind, friendly and would do anything to make your stay that bit more special. Andreas was lovely, he showed us to our room when we first arrived, gave us lots of useful information, and also made us laugh, so got our holiday off to a great start. He also drove us around the resort on the buggies a few times and it was always good to see his friendly face...a great member of the already fantastic team. Anthony who is front of desk manager was fabulous...he came to visit us a few times as we sat at the pool to make sure our stay was going well, he was attentive, friendly, kind and again like Andreas, made us laugh. A great personality and an excellent manager. Ikos is lucky to have him in our opinion. After previously visiting Dubai for many years we felt there were few hotels that could match the high expectations that we had experienced in the middle east, but Aria did. Absolutely 5 star through and through. Cannot wait to return. Thank you to all the team who made our stay as wonderful as it was.

Good Morning from the UK. I just wanted to reach out and say how thankful we were to be in your care this month. Dimitrios (GM) always provide us with the best welcome, outstanding service and a team that’s impeccable from start to finish. Thank you for all that you and the energy you bring. We really appreciated how special you make our visits Ikos. A huge heartfelt thank you to you and all at Aria. Both Karl & I love our time there. Many thanks again. Chris & Karl

Fantastic 5 star hotel and beach lovely and clean. Great food choices, very 5 star buggy service and Tesla car for the day was a great way to visit the local town.
