Astir Odysseus Resort & Spa

Bjoern Blaha

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this five-star gem, and I can confidently say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable – warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the hotel pool and the beach access. The pool was pristine with plenty of comfortable loungers to relax on. Just steps away was the hotel’s private beach, with crystal-clear waters (and a few rocks) - truly a slice of paradise. The dining experience was equally exceptional. The main restaurant offered a mouthwatering selection of gourmet dishes, all beautifully presented and rich with flavor. Each meal felt like a culinary adventure, with local and international delicacies that were a treat to the senses. Breakfast was an absolute feast. The buffet was incredible, offering everything from fresh pastries and tropical fruits to made-to-order omelets and coffee specialties. The variety and quality were outstanding, catering to every palate and dietary preference. In every aspect, this hotel embodies luxury and relaxation. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, enjoying world-class cuisine, or taking in the breathtaking beach views, it’s an unforgettable experience. I can’t wait to return!

Our stay at the Astir Odysseus Hotel on Kos was absolutely fantastic. The entire resort was spotless, and the staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We truly felt at home. A special mention goes to Anita, our waitress, who was incredibly attentive and fulfilled every wish before we even had to ask. Theodore was another highlight—always friendly, helpful, and in a great mood. Every morning, he pressed fresh juice for me in no time. Both of them provided exceptional service and made our stay even more enjoyable. The activities offered were top-notch, from sports to engaging evening entertainment programs. The animators did a great job, and Kevin stood out with his cool dance moves and lovely singing voice, which added so much energy to the performances. The food was delicious, with a wide variety of dishes to cater to every taste. Every meal was a delight. We also loved the size of the hotel complex, which was very spacious and featured three pools accessible to all guests. This was fantastic, as it meant there was always plenty of space to relax. Additionally, there was hardly any “sunbed reserving,” so we could easily find free loungers after breakfast and enjoy a stress-free day by the pool or beach. The only minor downside was the location, which we already knew about beforehand. While it’s just a 20-minute bus ride to downtown Kos, there isn’t much immediately around the hotel except for a small mini-market. However, having direct access to the beach was a big plus that we thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, we had a wonderful time at Astir Odysseus and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, activity-filled vacation with outstanding service!

This is an amazing hotel. The staff were so friendly and helpful; staff in the restaurants remembered the drinks order and room number each evening. Food was top quality and slightly different each evening. No problems with sunbeds at any time during the day, and the “drinks delivered to sunbed” app was great. Room was spotless and cleaned daily. This is a huge complex, but the staff (especially those delivering drinks to the pool all day) were amazing. There is the largest pool I think I’ve ever seen, and it never felt crowded. Great variety of entertainment too. Bus stop is outside the hotel, and they running fairly frequently to Kos Town. I would definitely stay here again.

A stunning hotel with a high level of service and a beautifully designed area. There are large pools as well as many smaller ones throughout the property. Direct access to the sea makes it even more special. The spacious grounds are decorated with breathtaking landscape design. The staff is incredibly attentive, always smiling, and they go out of their way to ensure you have a great stay. The restaurants are amazing, offering a varied and delicious menu. There is also entertainment for both adults and children. An oasis on the island of Kos.

This was a very last-minute booking due to finding out, on arrival to Kos, that our intended resort booking had gone bust. We were greeted by very kind and attentive staff. The rooms are well laid-out and comfortable and are thoroughly cleaned and re-stocked every day. The pools are excellent and never felt over- crowded and the pool-side drinks service was a wonderful touch. Pools were just a shade too deep at 1.3m for our two kids (aged 6 and 8) but it didn’t hinder their enjoyment. The real standout of this resort though was the food. Breakfasts, lunches and dinners were all exceptional. We could not have asked for a wider range of well-prepared dishes to try. Even fussy kids were delighted.
