If there is one thing you take from this review…. stay well clear of this place!!!
We had booked to stay here for 7 days but had to get Jet2 involved to switch our hotel after day 2.
Our bed was filled with bedbugs, myself and my partner woke up head to toe with painful bites (I even had an allergic reaction on my face from these bites!!!!) Our bedding was also covered in various stains.
Our bathroom was covered in black mould, those in HMP would have a cleaner shower than what is at this place!
The staff were really rude and unhelpful apart from the lovely lady who works in the little convenience shop. The bar staff question you if you order more than one drink (I got a drink for both myself and my partner and was told that I am not able to do this but they will “let me off” on that occasion). If your room is up the hill, you will be expected to walk all the way to the other side of the resort every time you want a drink as they only open the main bar and none of the small bars are ever open.
My partner got a glass of wine and the glass was visibly filthy, he then took the glass to the manager to complain and the manager took the glass off my partner, stuck his finger in the glass and simply walked off.
In the whole time we were there we did not see any of the pools get cleaned once.
The food was always served cold even if you were there as soon as the buffet was open and was sometimes not cooked thoroughly. People were getting food poisoning from the food.
The hotel has a complimentary shuttle service to take you in to Kos town but I would steer clear as the bus broke down twice on our 7 minute drive into Kos. This was a running issue upon further conversation with other holiday makers.
We were not the only people to be transferred to a different hotel during our stay and definitely not the only people who complained. Make of that what you will.
It is such a shame because looking at the older reviews this hotel has not always been this way and the views were beautiful but other than that, this place has nothing else going for it.

I recently stayed at Aegean view aqua resort and spa and had a lovely experience.
The views were absolutely stunning—you could watch the sunrise and sunset each day, which made the setting feel truly special. There were six pools to choose from, so it never felt crowded, and the variety of food on offer was great throughout our stay.
The staff were genuinely kind and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. Our room was clean and comfortable, though we did hear of a few guests experiencing issues with cockroaches—thankfully, the staff responded quickly and offered room changes. There were also quite a few cats around the resort, which added charm, though some did seem to have fleas.
Overall, it was a beautiful, relaxing holiday, and with a few small improvements, it could be perfect. I’d happily return and recommend it to others.

Overall fine experience, but..
cons-
- We were given an obviously older room, resulting in a few problems. Power machine from the key card didn't work properly, it had to be shoved into the wall to turn on and maybe stay on
- Ants were found in room
- WIFI didn't reach our room
- The single bed in our room wasn't even a bed- felt like sleeping on a rock while also being uneven. Expect way better from a four star hotel
- Bathroom wasn't up to standard, odd smell along with a mouldy, broken soap dispenser
- One day when we came back to our room my retainer was gone and when reported to the hotel concierge the management was very unprofessional. When we finally got hold of the manager, she said that the cleaners aren't allowed to touch our personal belongings but that I 'should put valuable items in the safe.' So if you stay here keep in mind your retainer belongs in the safe! Overall very unhelpful and I had to pay over £200 for a new one
- Not even a single outdoor shower?
Pros-
- Food was nice with a good variety
- Lots of nice pools
- Bar staff/ kitchen staff were friendly
The hotel is nice, but to properly be a four star hotel it definitely needs an overall renovation, specifically with the rooms.... Also would appreciate easier contact with the manager.

The Aegean View Hotel was a pleasant stay, I few minor issues.
Walking distance to the sea is not ideal to many winding roads, we rented a car not for that reason but to see the entire island!
There is a bit of a night life here at the Aegean so if you want a quiet night ask for a room away from the bar and terrace area..
Apart from that we like it here and would probably stay again.

Alright…I went to this hotel about 4 years ago it was beautiful. But recently I went back and they told me they got a new manager new staff and the place changed not in a good way… all the good reviews are from years ago and recent ones are about the view but let’s be honest go anywhere in kos and the view is great.
