Tigaki Beach Hotel

“The brilliant Tigaki Beach Hotel”

Staff helpful, rooms clean and cleaned daily, food very good, ambience relaxed and comfortable, pools accessible to all and clean, good location to the beach and bus service on time into Kos itself. You got what you pay for and a little bit more. Will come again in the not so distant future.

“Good value.”

I would rate this hotel between 3 & 4*. To address some of the more negative comments of earlier reviewers - the food is a bit ‘canteen ish’ but we always found something acceptable.

I would rate this hotel between 3 & 4*. To address some of the more negative comments of earlier reviewers - the food is a bit ‘canteen ish’ but we always found something acceptable. The salad bar is good, there is always pasta available and meats with an obvious Greek slant. There is always ice cream available, a selection of cakes and pastries and melon. Previous reviewers mention dirty swimming pools. There are 2 small and 2 large, one with jacuzzi. During our trip they were spotless. There were always plenty of sun beds available in all areas. Our room was clean and modern with effective aircon. Fridge but no mini bar. Cleaned daily. Beds were not too hard for us. We appeared to be the only English couple there during our visit. 99% of the customers were German and the vast majority, smokers. If you have any aversion to tobacco smoke, this place isn’t for you. (Not allowed in restaurant of course). Mostly German channels on the room tvs. Wi-fi signal when available at all is weak and patchy. The staff work very hard and service in the restaurant is efficient. All inclusive drinks are the norm. Local beers and spirits, not too strong. Queues at the bar can be long at times but wine and beer are help yourselves. Max 2 barmen on at any one time for hundreds of customers. The village is about a 10 min walk. A longish strip with many bars and restaurants if you fancy a bit of a fancier meal. Buses to Kos town stop just outside the hotel hourly. The sandy beach stretches for miles and is just a few minutes walk from the hotel. It gently shelves to the sea and and you can stand up a good 60/70 yards out. It’s never impossible to get a sunbed, there are hundreds. 10 euros for 2. There is only entertainment in the hotel one night per week. ‘Greek Night’. A bouzouki is OK for about 10 minutes but after 2 hours it loses its’ appeal a bit. They didn’t know Pump Up The Jam - I asked. BTW we booked with Love Holidays. Apart from being given a piece of paper on arrival saying our rep was Robert and he would be welcoming us on ….(left blank), they were non-existent. No English info in resort whatsoever. Wouldn’t recommend. In summary, we didn’t need a great deal from our holiday and this had everything we did need for a relaxing week. Good value for what we paid.

“Overall it was a worth it family summer vacation.”

Let me start with the room, it was good but the pillows and the blankets needs to be improved. Lady cleaners were nice and accomodating.

Let me start with the room, it was good but the pillows and the blankets needs to be improved. Lady cleaners were nice and accomodating. The pools were big but needs to be maintained or cleaned regularly. My son said he saw lots of dirts and breads in the pool, when he was swimming with his swim goggles under the water, that's why we decided to swim always at the beach. Food buffet was great, too many to choose from, also drinks were overflowing :) Waiters, waitresses and the man who receives the guests at the door were polite and friendly. Entertainment for children or like animations is missing, they don't have activities for children. There is a tennis court but maybe a football field is a good idea since kids like to play football. Commendation to the lady receptionist named Ioanna/Joanna, she was so friendly, and helpful. The other receptionist named L-s-a, she needs more practice on how to be a nice receptionist. She was so unfriendly and rude when I had an inquiry. The beach is just a walking distance, there are sunbeds available that you can pay 10Euros for the whole day. The bus stop is just right at the entrance of the hotel. The bus goes to Kos, City and the trip schedule is posted. The Tigaki square is also just walking distance, too many restaurants to choose from. Overall it was a worth it family summer vacation.
