Psalidi Vacation Rentals

"Just returned from a wonderfully relaxing week at OKU Kos. It is a truly stunning hotel set on the edge of the dunes leading to a sandy beach and the clear waters of the Aegean. The hotel is designed in a laidback boho style in calming neutral shades. Rooms are cool and comfortable appointed with all you need - a Nespresso coffee maker made me very happy! The bed was incredibly comfortable. Food was fantastic. We were spoilt for choice at breakfast with an amazing selection of granolas, nuts, seeds and dried and fresh fruit. 6 different milks to satisfy any taste and delicious Greek yogurt. As well as a great variety of cooked breakfast and a vast selection of breads. You couldn’t have asked for more. We were half board so enjoyed an excellent dinner each evening. The menu was varied and created with fresh local ingredients. Everything we tried was delicious. There’s a separate vegan menu too. A special mention for the staff who were charming, helpful and did everything to ensure we felt well looked after. It’s advisable to hire a car while staying at OKU Kos as it is fairly isolated, so wandering to a local village is not an option. We took a trip to Kos town and the beautiful mountainside village of Zia. The hotel organised the car hire and provided us with a very useful map with suggestions of places to visit and restaurant recommendations. All in all a relaxing, restorative break in a beautiful hotel which I highly recommend. Thank you everyone at OKU Kos!!"

"We in fact stayed for 7 nights due to booking confusion with change of airline flight date/time. Late arrival & check in but pleasent to find cooked food selection and drinks available even at 11:30pm in buffet restaurant. Positive start. Room 612 overlooking quiet swimming pool area away from main block. Rooms spacious , clean & amenities with mini bar filled daily. Hotel has lovely facilities, welcome & courteous staff across all areas , recep, dining, bar etc. Two theme restaurants, Italian in our opinion excellent, Meat disappointingly average. Main buffet excellent alround , breakfast, lunch & dinner. Bars offer pleasant cocktails which creates waits , spirits are ok but not full strength nor premium. Beer & wine ok. Hotel beach a big disappointment even with pitta gyros station & bar. Hotel is a good 45m-1 hr walk into Kos Town (well worth visiting). Hotel do provide a free cycle tour in once a week which was good. Walking round area not a lot to see other than wetlands area which we believe hosts flamingos but not when we visited. Overall the hotel is a big all inclusive perhaps more suited for families , entertainment and pool use given remoteness. It was getting busier as we left and can see how it becomes a churn but for us in early season was a welcome break. Nothing detrimental to say other than wouldn’t visit as a couple in height of season. "

"Things were clean, the staff was friendly, the location was convenient from the bus stop, port, restaurant and tourist attractions. The view was beautiful. The only thing I wish was that there were some dairy and gluten free options for breakfast (such as a dairy free milk or yogurt for the granola, some potatoes, that sort of thing)."

"Lovely hotel , staying in October outside of any school holidays, so hotel not too busy , plenty of sun loungers, attentive staff, place felt very clean, tidy and well maintained. The all inclusive was excellent, enjoyed working though the cocktail menu. Good dining options, the app was very useful - should promote that more, with QR codes etc.. in reception. Friendly reception, very helpful booking taxis. Few times we got taxi to Kos town, then walked back. All very flat - so easy walking. Booked excursion and went to Zia for sunset in the mountains, which was beautiful. Also managed to squeeze in boat ride to Bodrum, Turkey. Overall really impressed with Kos and would certainly come back and stay at the same hotel. Indoor adult pool in the spa was a hidden gem. If the outdoor pools were a few degrees warmer I’d have swam in them more, but the sea was a little warmer and beautiful, so clear.. happily swam in the sea everyday - hotel is in great spot to enjoy the sea.

"The room was lovely and the view was amazing "

"Lovely and relaxing place to stay. Very nice pool and beach areas. Low rise accommodations and areas to walk around on the property. We enjoyed our stay and would go back! thank you!!"

"Hotel restaurent had simple yet wonderful, flavourful food."

"The room smelled so bad, like sewage. Worn sheets and towels to the point of being transparent in places. Broken curtains and soap dispensers. Air con was not able to be adjusted, and set to a low fan setting. Building next door is an apartment block with loud shouting and partying all night. Would not recommend. "

"The architecture of the hotel Platanista is gorgeous. I loved everything about this hotel. Beautiful property. Great swimming pools and a nice close by private beach. Superb hotel ! Highly recommended ! "
