Tropical Sol

★★★★★ We had an absolutely wonderful stay! From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed and well taken care of. The hotel is beautiful, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with a warm and relaxing atmosphere that makes you feel at home. What truly makes this place special, though, is the hospitality. The staff were kind, friendly, attentive, and genuinely made an effort to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. You can really feel the care and passion behind everything they do. Everything was perfect, from the comfort and cleanliness to the overall atmosphere and attention to detail. It was such a lovely experience, and we would happily stay here again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a beautiful place to stay with exceptional hospitality! ❤️

Lovely hotel in the middle of the strip so very handy for shops and restaurants! The rooms are standard with a balcony with a added bonus of free air conditioning.The staff were all lovely with a “kalimera” every morning. Breakfasts are lovely with a mixed variety of pastries that are alternated throughout the week. General cleanliness of the rooms and hotel is good. The pool area is lovely with a shallower pool than average, baby pool and a jacuzzi. The only fault i can comment on is that the pool turned whatever was white to green (see photos of what was a brand new white tshirt) .. there was also green in the pool in the corner where all the water gets pushed to. The jacuzzi has a green line around the water line which when touched looks like green paste. If this issue was resolved then this would make the perfect stay! Cocktails in the hotel were overpriced in comparison with some of the bars a few doors down.

Where do I start? This week has been an amazing week, made even more special by the wonderful people at Tropical Sol. We started our stay with a lovely young lady at the front desk, Katerina. She made such a fuss of my 5-year-old daughter, helped us with our bags to our room, taught my daughter how to say our room number in Greek, and gave us such a lovely welcome to the hotel. All week, everyone who works at the hotel has been nothing short of wonderful. Yanni, who runs the pool bar, works so hard to make sure everyone is happy. On our second morning, my daughter wanted a slushy, but the machine wasn't ready yet, so we went out for the day. When we came back, Yanni came running over with a free slushy for her, saying, "I've been looking for you all day! Your slush is ready!" He spent the whole week making sure she was happy. He would run to the other bar to get chocolate ice cream for her milkshake when he had run out at his bar and find other ways to be extra kind whenever he could. Then there was another lady at the front desk, who we found out on our last day was also called Katerina. She is a wonderful woman who took time out of her day to talk to us and my daughter. We talked about how kind the people of Greece are, and she told us to look up the word "philanthropia", saying that it is part of the DNA of Greek people. She was right. The people of Greece are amazing, generous and considerate, and the people of Tropical Sol are a perfect example of this. On our last day, we found out that the young Katerina had left. My daughter had drawn her a picture and was very sad that she wouldn't get to say goodbye. The other Katerina saw how sad she was, so she called the young Katerina and asked her to come back to see my daughter before we left, so that she could give her the picture. And she did! Not only that, but she brought my daughter a small present as a thank you. I have never visited a country where I have met so many wonderful people, and we already can't wait to come back. My daughter also drew pictures for the other Katerina and Yanni. Katerina told her that she would even keep her picture in a special place in her home. Such a small thing, but it made my daughter so happy. She is going to remember this holiday forever. The hotel was clean, the location was perfect, the food was great with a variety of options every day. Admittedly my daughter was sad on the days they didn't have mini pancakes out, but she quite happily settled for chocolate spread on toast! I would say the toasters are a bit slow, but we discovered using the toastie press was a lot faster and easier as long as no one was waiting to use it. You don't hear the noise of the clubs on the street at night once you shut the balcony door. The only noise issue we had was noisy neighbours running up and down the hall on our last two nights, but that was just because of other guests being inconsiderate. The rooms were perfect for what we needed, towels were refreshed regularly during the week and the bins were emptied daily. My daughter also named the cat that sits at the bottom of the stairs every morning, "Fight Girl" because she looks like she's been in a lot of fights. She was very sad to be leaving her and hopes everyone gives her a quick scratch behind her remaining ear on their way to breakfast for her. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone at Tropical Sol. You made our week incredibly special, and we truly hope to come back again one day. You all work so hard, and it really shows. Thank you for making our holiday so wonderful.

Stayed 10 nights with family :-3 kids . Was slightly nervous before we arrived reading some reviews. Rooms were small especially when 3 sharing triple , bathrooms were tiny but did the job. The decor in the rooms and around the hotel was more modern than I expected considering some reviews. The rooms and hotel are very clean and the staff work hard at breakfast . The breakfast was pretty basic, not much fruit , mainly eggs and breads , it did the job not that we expected full on English breakfast though but could be better as things ran out at times and were not always replaced even 30 minutes before it finished, fresh coffee was great ! Pool was ok, probably one of the bigger pools compared to some of the hotels but a bit dated. We were looking forward to meeting Terri who ran the pool bar from previous reviews. However, he’s moved on and it looks like new staff running things with limited food menu and 4€ for a small beer seemed steep when you can get a large beer or 500ml bottle in the bars for a similar price, this encouraged us to use the beach more and go elsewhere for lunch. Tigaki itself was great, plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from and a fabulous beach . All in all I’d return to Tigaki but maybe try another hotel nextime .

I wasn’t expecting a great deal from this hotel as it’s 3* cheap week away for me and my son but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The room was basic (very small) but had everything you need, fridge, hairdryer nice big bed & a balcony, enough storage space and lots of hangers. The shower pressure was great. My only criticism of the accommodation is that shower curtains are dated now. Could easily make the bathroom into a wet room or at least have a shower screen instead. The pool area was really nice, big pool and great pool bar. Tan is the bar man was super friendly and helpful, made great cocktails and the cook was lovely. My son is a picky eater and there was plenty on the menu for him, hot dogs, toasties, burgers, as well as salads, omelettes, giros, pizza etc. Breakfast was also surprisingly fine. Section of breads and jams, chocolate spread, marmalade & honey , continental section, cereal section, pastries, and a sort of English section of scrambled eggs, fried eggs, boiled eggs and either bacon or Greek sausage alternative days. Great for a 3 star I thought. The hotel itself self is very clean and the gardens are well cared for. The staff were amazing, friendly and very understanding of my son’s SEND needs. Room cleaned daily. Location It is in a perfect position and really close to the beach. There are loads of restaurants and supermarkets right on your doorstep, you could eat for a fortnight and not eat in them all. There is a bus stop opposite hotel to Kos town. 2.5 euros in about 20 mins. Stephanos at tigaki rentals rented us a car for the day to go around the island. The beach at tigaki is lovely soft sand but it is windy there and so if there is a lot of wind the sea is rough and so why we hired a car and went to the east on the really windy days. Sun loungers are expensive but we found kings beach bar don’t charge if you eat and drink there. We do pay and go to Paron one day but it’s expensive unless you plan on staying all day. Recommend going to Mylos for lunch on Lambi beach too. Overall great stay for a cheap week away. Would recommend.
