Kefalos Beach Tours

In my opinion as somebody who has travelled and stayed in many hotels over 40 years in business this hotel should not be rated 5 Star it is at best a 3-4 star The hotel is very clean with great staff who try very hard to please the guests The position of the hotel is misleading as from pictures on Expedia it’s appears to be on the beach it is positioned one street back from the beach looking over an older hotel The pictures on the beach show sunbeds that belong to the hotel but are situated in front of a bar that serves drinks on behalf on the hotel The pool at the hotel is very small and cramped with no space between sunbeds As a plus the breakfast buffet was very good and the rooms are well appointed My overall feeling is a hotel that has great staff offering an out standing service but lacks the facilities and position to be considered 5 star

The hotel was not as modern or contemporary as it appears in the images. We are experienced travellers, always exploring 5* luxury hotels at a mid-level. For the price point we found this hotel disappointing. Firstly the room we were given was so far from the main pool which caused us difficulties with a toddler. The childrens pool is busiest but they only allow you to reserve beds for 45 minutes (although there was some degree of discretion by the staff). By the time you take your toddler to breakfast your beds have gone so there is no point getting up early to get beds and if your not there. The food choices were pretty much the same every day and we only enjoyed the Asian and Italian restaurants. We also read that they cater for children but the only options in every restaurant other than the Italian was chicken nuggets and chips or tomato pasta - again extremely limited and repetitive and not as family friendly There was very limited evening entertainment by the outside bar where everyone gathered yet there would be great acts in a conference room where most people either didnt even know it was happening or didnt want to be sat in a conference room with a limited choice of drinks! The entertainment should 100% be on the outside stage area where people can enjoy and appreciate the effort. Overall, whilst Kos was beautiful and the resort and pools were really nice, we wouldn't return again.
