Manolis Studios

“Awesome place to stay.”

Awesome place to stay - lovely family and apartments. Cleaned regularly and everything you need for your holiday. Air conditioning was fabulous. Amazing BBQ night hosted by the family. Superb location, close to all amenities. Hire a quad from Anna’s car rental and dcplore! Loved Manolis Studios.

“Fantastic holiday”

We had a great 2 weeks stay at Manolis Studios. The rooms were basic but cleaned regularly and comfortable.

We had a great 2 weeks stay at Manolis Studios. The rooms were basic but cleaned regularly and comfortable. The only downside was that the bathroom flooded every time we had a shower, so wet feet everytime we went into the bathroom. The air conditioning was good but if you want it, you need to pay extra and they seem to make the prices up as they go along. We went bed and breakfast and there wasn't much choice, egg on toast, beans on toast or toast with butter and jam. You can have coffee or orange juice but not both. There are plenty of sunbeds around the pool, it is however a public pool, and people come from the surrounding apartments to use it. The location was good, far enough out of the way to be quiet but close enough to get to the restaurants and bars. It takes about 25 minutes to walk down to the harbour but there are plenty of restaurants on the way down. Kefalos is a beautiful, laid back resort and we loved it. We have seen a lot of reviews about the friendliness of the hosts, however we had a different experience. We never found them particularly helpful or friendly. If you are a returning visitor it appears to be different and you are welcomed with open arms. We wanted to keep our room on the last day but was kept waiting until our last morning before telling us that we needed to be out by midday. The room however did not appear to be occupied right up to our departure at 6.30pm. It often felt as though you were putting them out when you needed serving at the bar. This was literally the only fault we had about Manolis Studios, we will return to Kefalos one day but won't be returning to the same accommodation.

Definitely 2 ** but Clean enough. Rooms okay apart from being inundated by Ants on the balcony we were ground floor visits by Cockroaches on numerous occasions in the room& outside, bathroom from the 80;s in need of full referb small shower tray not much room to wash , which totally floods the whole bathroom floor. We went self catering asked to hire a toaster they do not provide this which is a must for self catering or it becomes expensive buying breakfast lunch dinner. Snack bar was not to bad basic prices varies I was astounded that 2pieces of toast and jam was €4.90, scrambled eggs €7.00 .If you buy drinks they tend to make up prices as they go one day they would be €8.00 then €7.00 depends who serves it. Plus side Pool was lovely and Clean and lots of sun beds and umbrellas take care on some as many are broken and held with cable ties. Slightly annoying that everyone used the pool from other apartments around there, many people there are returning visitors every year can be a bit clicky Reviews previously said the owners were friendly, We didn’t think they were that friendly sometimes an effort for him to get out his chair and serve a drink you always thought you were bothering him by asking one lady working always said Good morning but other than that you had to speak to them 1st. Long Walk to tavernas which are not many unless you walk for 30mins prices vary . Kos town 1 hr 45 to get to by bus great town Pharmacy 35 mins walk if you need one I highly recommend hiring a car to get you around as not much here and very barren. Jim the supermarket is Great 5 mins walk from apartment and he is very friendly and helpful ,you can get to the beach by Jim’s but not a very nice beach stones and shingles defo need beach shoes. Note Air Conditioning costs £65.00 extra cost a week
