Dimitra Beach Hotel & Suites

Very nice hotel with well kept grounds. Friendly and helpful staff. Good variety of food at the buffet which had a different theme each night, as well as entertainment from 21:00. Hotel is in a quiet location, close enough to the town by short taxi (avg €20) or bus. Serene view of Turkey with cool water and plenty of sunbeds! Niko (bar staff serving drinks to the beach area) deserves a special mention… a very hard worker, always smiling, and gave great tips! We also loved the invitation of an extra a la carte meal which was candle lit by ourselves, plus a little hamper of Greek treats to take home! These little touches made the holiday even more memorable. Thank you!

The outside veranda bar (where the entertainment is) usually didn’t have enough seating, could have been more efficient with space, plus a little understaffed with the table service which could be slow (unless you waved). Would recommend the beachfront bungalow, as we had our own space and no need to wait for a spot by the pool at 09:00 as others did.

Many varieties of food, which was great The beachfront bungalow is really nice Rooms are cleaned every day by really friendly staff ladies Fresh towels are provided every evening Great beer Waiters in the Greek restaurant were super helpful

Problems with the toilet during our stay even after fixing it We had a reservation for one of the restaurants (Cucina) and due to our mistake arrived 30 min early, although there were only three tables taken and all others free, we were asked to leave and come back after 30 min, which was not communication in very friendly/ professional manner Sometimes the main restaurant felt hectic

Food, hospitality great Very clean Beach facilities poor Need mini dock on the beach , stones are very uncomfortables in the sea

Need buggies to carry people The bed sizes horrible, dont feet adults bodies, just for children not for adults, Big defect for such a nice hotel for people who need twin beds THE REAL TWIN BEDS NOT UNUNITED BEDS

I recently returned from a 2 week stay at Dimitra beach hotel and I can whole heartedly say it was everything I wished for and more (so much so that I ended up extending my stay for 2 further weeks!). Throughout my stay the cleanliness of the rooms and resort was upheld to impeccable standards (many thanks to the wonderful Debora), delicious food was always served and my room was beautiful and modern offering incredible sea views and site of the surrounding islands. The hotel is in the perfect location; just a 10 minute’s ride from the town centre/bars, with the natural hot springs of Therma just 5 minutes away in the other direction. This was my first time travelling alone as a female traveller but from the moment I arrived I was made to feel at ease and welcomed with open arms. From my initial interaction with the amazing reception girls Maria and Anna, to Michalis in the lobby whom was always at hand to help, to Vasilis, Eleni and Levon who make the best drinks on the island, Bruna who is forever smiling and dancing whilst bringing you your drink, alongside the amazing restaurant team who go above and beyond for their guests, I cannot commend the staff enough for what a fantastic job they do day in and day out. During the day whether you want to relax in the sun or be a bit more active there is an option for you. The amazing Valentina in animation is always at hand to take you through relaxing stretches in the garden, leading onto a fun and feel good aqua gym workout. Her energy is unmatched and she would always be at hand ensuring every guest is left smiling, as well as giving honest recommendations for trips you can do on the island. I can’t thank her enough for completing my vacation experience and making my stay as wonderful as it was. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for that relaxing break, Kos is a beautiful island made all the better in the resort and heart of Dimitra and I look forward to returning in the near future!

There is nothing I can say I didn't like about this hotel - it has absolutely everything you could possibly wish for when booking that relaxing vacation away.

everything but staff especially

the spa is in the sister hotel next door and with my back disability I couldn’t walk the 10 minutes so I missed out there and was not told that when booking

We really enjoyed our stay. Our bungalow was steps from the beach and you could really enjoy the sea and at night listen to the waves and enjoy the stars. The staff is AMAZING. Special thanks to the bar manager Vasilis who just makes the guest feel special and brings such a positive energy, as well as to Nikos a very polite and lovely guy who made sure we got our drinks at the beach, as well as the Hotel Manager. They really want to make your stay great! The food was nice, many varieties and so many options for vegetarians which I loved. We liked the evening entertainment(almost every night something different planned) as well. Room was cleaned daily and even the ladies who do this are super nice. The beach is a bit rocky, but the water is clear and you feel nice that you are not in a crowded beach and have your peace and quite and nice a view. The pools are okay, the one we liked the most was the one on top, in some of the others there were many kids playing. They have a gym in the property near by, which was very good. The bus stop to the city is right in front of the hotel and you are in Kos in 10-15minutes and the bus is regular so it was very convenient, or you can also rent a car and visit some of the other beaches. We had a wonderful time there, we would definitely come back one day!

If you are there without children and want to relax, there are just no places where kids are not there, so at some point all the pools even those for adults are full of kids, and it might get annoying. Also when you arrive its good to inform yourself what is included if you are half board and what not, because it can be confusing.

The staff were all super helpful and genuinly nice people. The hotel facilities were also good, the bed was super comfy, there was lot's of pools and the drinks were great!

I didn't particularly like the food, I am not a fussy eater and neither is my partner but I don't think the choices were fantastic, but I want to make it clear they weren't BAD, just not great. & of the choices available they were just OK standard, not delicious. This is the only real fault I had all holiday & would still recommend people to stay here

The property is located at the far end of island Kos , it’s peaceful ( bare in mind we stayed there end of the season in Oct ) our suite was spacious and cleaned daily by wonderful housekeeping staff. Everyone was above and beyond friendly and nice to our family. Staff at the restaurants lead by George was incredibly welcoming and couldn’t ha be ask for bettter service, restaurants offered good variety of food- always nice and fresh. All facilities were kept pristine! Really loved the stay . Couldn’t be happier with the choice.

Nothing that we didn’t like. Maybe ramps for pram/wheelchair could be a nice thing to do in the future.

One of the hotels with the best views we have ever been to. The hotel is very clean. It has lots of different outdoor areas, all beautiful, so it doesn’t feel crowded. The sun loungers are super comfy too. The rooms are practical and beautifully decorated, great shower! The food was great, lots to choose from and it was constantly replenished. The beach is just a few steps down and although I’m not usually a fan is pebble beaches, the calm sea and clear water won me over. Perfect for a swim or to relax on the sun beds provided. The staff were friendly and courteous. I am terrible with names, but I’d like to thank the reception staff, the restaurant manager and waiters, the lovely cleaning lady who took care of our room (823), who always greeted us with a smile and did a fantastic job, and to Alexandra and Ana María from the kids club, who looked after our children and were so loving and patient with them (they say they miss you!). Finally, thank you to the hotel for all those extra details that made a big difference: the complimentary beach bag and flip flops (so handy!), the sweets left on the kids’ bed every evening, the free massage and the Greek farewell treats we were given on our last day. Thanks for an amazing holiday!

There was quite a long walk (ascend!) between the children area and the block where our room was located, which paradoxically seems to be where the family rooms are. The walls in our room were quite thin, we could hear everything that was being said and done next door. My in laws arrived a few days later and their rooms were closer to the pool area and did not have any issues with noise, so I wonder if it is a problem specific to the block where we were. There were not a lot of activities for the adults and the night entertainment was mainly live music. None of the pools were heated, so water a bit cold for this time of the year (late October). The negatives were amply compensated by the positives though, and we would not hesitate to return to this resort.

The staff was fantastic, always helpful and friendly. Especially Nicks, who was the service person for the beach. They handed out free water and drinks at the beach and would even deliver food from the snack menu. We had half-board so our drinks and lunch was not included but we found that the food at the bar was delicious and actually cheaper than going to the all-inclusive buffet (+25/person). We are not heavy drinkers and we prefer local cuisine to the buffet so the half board worked great. The hotel offers 2 restaurants with a la carte menus that can each be visited once per 7 day stay. That was a nice treat and the food was really good. Otherwise we hopped on the bus to Kos town and enjoyed a plethora of really good restaurants with great food at a good price value. The hotel has a car rental company on-site that offers a large variety of vehicles for rent and the process is quick and easy. We recommend at least one day of exploration to Kefalos (very picturesque beach/island/ruins/church), Melissa's Honey store/restaurant as well as the mountain village of Zia. Zia offers great views, shopping and good food and is advertised for the best sunset views on the island. Other sites include a salt lake, wind mills and many delightful beaches. Kos town has an old town area with plenty of shopping from cheap souvenirs to well made art and leather products. Some artist from the island and all over Greece offer their products. The restaurants are plentiful and most offer good quality food and friendly service. We found (with reservations!) some great places along the beach that were a little better than the ones right on the marina. As in most of Europe you can sit as long as you want and you are not chased to pay and leave right away. In fact you will have to get someones attention to get your bill and pay. We stayed at the beachfront bungalows and I cannot say how beautiful it was.
