My family and I had an enjoyable stay. The staff and management made us feel very welcome. Our room was clean and spacious. With a great view of the beach. We spent most of our time around the hotel pool area which was big and had a serene atmosphere. The beach was also across the road, which was a bonus. The food was delicious and the Greek night which the owners are a part of was a lot of fun. They have a bus stop, directly out the front of the hotel which takes you into the main part of Kardamenda. Highly recommend it for a relaxing stress free holiday.

Great holiday overall, hotel is in great location, east walking distance to Kardamena village, beautiful beach near by. Very peaceful location, very welcoming and accommodating staff, supermarket 10 mins walk too. Thank you ❤️

Would not recommend this hotel when you have high standards. The room was poorly equipped and not really clean. We didn’t had many ants as others but it’s best not to have food in the room. We stayed for 6 days and the cleaning service was there once! They changed the towels and gave us more toilet paper but that’s all (though the floor was dirty they did not clean it). The worst thing was the low quality food, thankfully we had only breakfast.
The location is fine if you have a car (which can be rented close by).
One positive note: the staff! Absolute lovely people.

I´ve had the chance to spend my first ever vacation with my mom in this hotel. We agreed that we´ve just had AMAZING stay in this lovely hotel and we have nothing to complain about. The married couple which owns the hotel is always available and very friendly, they immediately answered all our questions and helped us out. They´ve been checking on us regurarly, it was a pleasure to meet them and have a little chat every now and then.
We stayed in very pleasant, comfortable situated room with large balcony, airco worked well - what a help in these heat waves! Beds were just perfect for us and we had 7 silent nights, we didnt hear our neighbors even though the rooms around us were taken. I was really happy about this detail. The hotel is overall silent at night, the bar closes at 11pm, so you don´t have to worry about loud parties like in other resorts on the island.
The food was just perfect, we enjoyed daily dosage of fresh veggies with authentic tzatziki, you can always take spaghetti or fries, salads, variations of meat (also fish!) are different everyday so you can always try something new out. Drinks are always available in the dining room/at the bar, the coffee was good. The hotel stuff is always checking out and refreshing food, so if you choose to go eat a little later, its a no problem.
Due to common water situation in Greece its not recommended to drink tap-water, but 1 euro for 1,5l of cold water from the hotel market is very affordable and symbolic prize. Theres also beach essentials, drinks and local souveniers in the market.
The beach is literally a few steps away from the hotel, you will be very pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the water. We spent about 7 hours on a beach DAILY, it was nice and windy, the vibe is private and small.
The combination of friendly hotel staff, beautiful hotel by the beautiful beach, full plate of delicious meal 3 times a day, possibility to always get a tasty drink, 17 degrees in the room + silent nights... Just perfect. First ever all inclusive experience - I can only recommend. Of course there´s always people who love to complain about literally everything - need to point out that me and my mom we are very grateful tourists, but I honestly enjoyed this very much. I believe that positive-minded visitors who are realistic with their needs and the prize they are paying for they stay will find their happy vacay here just like we did.
By the way, the cca 11km distance from the airport is handy!
Nikos, thank you so much one more time!

We were stranded in Kos due to the computer glitches the UK.
We found Evripides via an on line booking company. This wasn't and wouldn't have been our first choice, having already read reviews that didn't paint a very good picture.
The hotel on first impressions is run down, and on closer inspection, it is. Just looks very tired and a bit broken.
The hotel, despite us booking on line weren't aware of our booking, which was another worry to add to our already fraught minds. We had a room for 4 and a room for my partner and I.
The rooms were both tired, the bathrooms needing not only a deep clean but a total upgrade. I can not remember the last time I saw a shower hoze connected to the mix tap bath. Our shower head didn't have a holder/hook, so it would be hand held only! There were also silverfish scuttering around in the bathroom.
This is an all-inclusive hotel, so we visited the pool bar after putting our bags in the rooms. The bar selection is minimal. Lager on tap (served in small tumbler glasses) tap wine, a basic selection of spirits, and some pump soft drinks. There is nothing else to purchase as far as we can see. Nothing exceptional or exciting.
We had dinner in the all you can eat restaurant. A basic mezze selection. Salads looked like yesterday's offering with cucumbers soft and weeping and tomatoes that had lost their structure. The main selection had fish nuggets, moussaka, plain pasta and tomato sauce, squid rings, and a selection of overcooked vegetables. No dedicated vegetarian dish or vegan dish. The waiter was lovely but couldn't help me with a vegetarian dinner other than pasta and a sauce that might have meat in it.
The bedrooms were, of course, warm with a temperature outside of 33c, not helped with aircon that didn't work, and blew out ambient air.
The lady behind reception was lovely mind and so was the man playing the guitar in the bar. I just hope they can see the need for some major refurbishment work and investment.
I can't give a higher score, sorry. Compared to other hotels in Kardamena, this is well below par.
