Vardis Olive Garden

Do not be put off by the low star rating at this hotel! The hotel is perfect if you're looking for a good value, quiet, comfortable and clean base to stay, which is exactly what we wanted and what we got. Even at the height of summer, you did not need to get up early to get a place by the pool, nor struggle to get a parking space (which we have found at other hotels). The hotel is clean throughout, in the most beautiful setting, and not too far from shops and tavernas (a 15 to 20 minute walk to the larger supermarket was fine for us). We were given a welcome drink on arrival and 2 small bottles of olive oil when checking out, which we found a lovely touch. The staff were friendly, welcomimg and helpful. The rooms were cleaned daily and towels changed every fourth day (my only observation is the towels could be a little softer but it was okay for us in all). The food was traditional, often with meat and fish options, salad, vegetables etc, and was fresh and delicious! Freshly cooked food was provided whenever things ran low, and desert (though limited) was always great. Breakfast was great too, plentiful and a little different every day. There aren't as many food options at the hotel as others we have stayed at, but we stuck to the buffet (we were half board) and did not try the à la carte menu that came at extra cost, so there is that option if needed. The grounds were well maintained and easy to get around. The air conditioning does come at extra cost (€7 per room per night) unless you book direct with the hotel (we learned after) and is capped at 23 degrees at its lowest, but this was again fine for us. There was also a fridge in each room which was handy and plenty of space to put your clothes and belongings away. A safe was provided at extra cost too. Don't forget the local tax also which is payable on check out which was €2 per room, per night. Overall, very worth the money paid and we would stay again. Thank you Vardis Olive Garden!

Everything about this hotel is amazing. All the staff are extremely friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble. The room was spotlessly clean and very large. The pool was large, clean and uncrowded with plenty of sun loungers. The views are wonderful and although I rarely book hotels slightly inland, I highly recommend this hotel. The breakfast was varied and of high quality- differing slightly each morning. I will return hopefully soon but I have so much more of Greece to see.

Such a lovely holiday. The staff were absolutely amazing and welcomed me and my family so very well, we had the best time and loved our time by the pool. Everything was clean and well thought out. Would 100% go again, not a bad word to say about this hotel. I recommend that you visit this beautiful place! Thank you Vardis Olive Garden!

This is an amazing hotel resort which is very unique on an olive farm. The rooms were very clean, spacious, and comfortable!! Overall all the facilities from the lobby, breakfast area, bar, seating and the pool was very clean and great! I loved how peaceful the resort was and the very friendly staff here to make your experience better. Thank you for the great holiday!!
