We've just returned from a week's stay in White Olive Marine Aquapark, Tigaki. It's a lovely hotel, with great facilities and lovely food. Granted we came at he very start of the season, so not everything was firing on all cylinders to begin with, which is understandable. However, it really ramped up over the past few days and we saw how amazing it really is going into the high season. It is secluded, as has been mentioned in other reviews, but we quite liked that. It may have been nice to go to Kos town one day, but with young kids we weren't going to haul them around on buses/ taxis when all they really wanted was to play on the beach and play on the pool. Room was lovely, clean and spacious (superior family garden view) and heard no outside noise whatsoever. Had to run the shower for a while to draw hot water through, but that's not unusual for hotel complexes in the Mediterranean. Maids did a lovely job (Don't forget to tip) Only issue here was faulty aircon when we first arrived, which took a few requests at reception to fix. Luckily it was cold the first 3 days so didn't affect us much. Restaurant is great, you occasionally have to wait to be seated at busy times, never more than a few minutes. Food is brilliant, great choice, attentive and patient staff, brilliant with the kids. Pool snack bar has delicious food, although expect to queue as many people take much more than they should and you have to wait for them to cook more pizza and meat dishes, a shame, as the staff there work extremely hard to get food out as quickly as possible and many guests take so much and waste a lot. But this is obviously not the hotels fault. Fair play to the pizza man, he's really fast and the kids were entertained watching him throw and spin the pizza dough. Tip: As they have to get food out so fast, there were a couple of occasions where a few meat dishes were undercooked, so just keep an eye out. Animation team never stop, they are brilliant. We didn't do any activities ourselves but they always had something on and our boys loved the kids disco every night. Pools are the big draw of this hotel, they were pretty cold at the beginning of the week, but I think I spotted them pumping some warm water in later on and they were much more bearable! Kids loved the slides. It is loud as has been mentioned, but what do you expect from a family oriented hotel? I personally liked the atmosphere as it warmed up over the week and more people began braving the pools. As has been mentioned, the beach is quite rough on the feet in places, sandals or water shoes would help! Top Tip: the right hand side by the rocks has is just sand underfoot so it's easier to get into the sea, which is a lovely temperature during a scorching Greek afternoon! All staff are lovely, especially the bar staff who are very generous with measures accompanied by a cheeky wink. The restaurant hostess is also great and there is one gent who is literally working everywhere, I didn't catch his name but he worked non stop in every aspect of the hotel and deserves a medal! Overall, a lovely hotel for families, it is lively and great value. We can't knock the price we paid with Jet2 and the service we received at the hotel was great. Thanks for a fantastic holiday!
