Great location, very accommodating, clean rooms, lovely pool and lovely owners! My girlfriend and I arrived late at night, starving with no food available anywhere nearby at the time, and the owner Jorgos ( spelling might be off! ) came to the rescue and made us a fresh, delicious pizza and offered us drinks and a very warm welcome. Could not speak highly enough about how great we were treated by him and his wife, very cute dog also called Romy was great! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere in kokkini Hani, very close to the beach ( 5 minute walk ) and very accessible to town with a bus stop right outside. Didn’t get the chance to say goodbye so wanted to say a very big thanks to Jorgos and his family for the wonderful experience.

Me, my wife & my two kids (8 & 15) have just returned from 2 weeks staying here & I highly recommend it, it was great & we will be going back. Location: 5 mins walk to a nice part of the beach with places to eat & drink. Bus stop (number 7) which pretty much goes then entire length of the island straight out side. Shops, supermarket & places to eat are within a 10 min walk. A cab from the airport to the hotel took about 10 mins & cost about 35 euro, had we of known the bus stops literally outside we would have got the bus for 8.20 euros. We did get the bus back to the airport when leaving. Hosts: Georgios, Stella, their kids & Romi (dog) are all amazing, they bend over backwards to make sure you have everything you need & enjoy your stay. I witnessed a French couple come back once with really bad sunburn, within minutes Georgios was on his mopped, down the shop & back with after sun which I might add he didn't ask them for the money. He was always popping out & coming back with ice creams for my kids & bought me & my wife a few drinks. Georgios is like a Greek version of Google, ask him anything & he will be able to help, we wanted to hire a car & told us to speak to him first as he would probably get a cheaper price than us. We ate out most nights but Georgios cooked for us one night & I wish we had eaten with him every night, his cooking is amazing & far better than you will get at the nearby places which are basically aimed at tourists & tourist prices. He was also very trusting & told me "I am always popping in & out so if you, your wife or kids need a drink & I am not here then just help yourself & keep a tally & we can settle up later" we found this perfect & really appreciated the trust. Stella is also amazing, greeting us every morning with a massive smile & a "good morning" & again always happy to do whatever makes your stay better, her Freddo cappuccino is by far the best I tasted whilst out there. Romi, what a lovely dog. I really miss this dog, my son cried when we left because "we don't have Romi at home". The dog is very well trained & will basically just lay about on the sunbeds unless Stella is around then he follows her. He was always jumping up on my sunbed for a belly rub & cuddle, he does also like a little play, he was grabbing my hand in his mouth & trying to get it when I moved. He doesn't bite, just holds your hand in a playful way in his mouth. Rooms & studio itself: We did our research beforehand which when I read the negative reviews about Olga Studios it's clear those people did not & those negative reviews are not fair. I wanted a traditional Greek, family run place not a 5* hotel where it's all "yes sir" blah blah & Olga Studios was exactly what I wanted & ticked the box. The rooms have everything you need to live, air con, fridge, cooking facilities, beds, washing facilities, a table/chairs & a balcony. If like us we were out most of the days & just using the studio to chill at night & sleep in this is absolutely perfect & does everything you need. If you plan on staying in the hotel room for your entire holiday then A) Why bother going on holiday & B) probably not the place for you. Music is normally playing & we were asked "What sort of music do you want on?" but I love all music so was happy with anything playing. There is a tv behind the bar as well which normally has some sport playing. On the days were we decided to have a lazy day & sit around the pool having a few beers Georgios & Stella would regularly bring us over snacks for with the beer. Crisps, cucumber & olives (grown in their garden) which were delicious. There is an outdoor play area for kids which has slides, a little play house etc all covered with umbrellas. However if your child is still a toddler or don't be an idiot & let them play or walk about on their own, there is a deep pool close by, brickwork & steps, use a bit of common sense. Anyway thank you Georgios, Stella & Romi for a great holiday & we will see you again. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would.

“Fantastic stay Excellent value for money”

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Olga. Georgios was an excellent host and couldn`t conceivably have done more to accommodate us - indeed he got his children to sing Happy Birthday to me!

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Olga. Georgios was an excellent host and couldn`t conceivably have done more to accommodate us - indeed he got his children to sing Happy Birthday to me! The property is in Gournes rather than Kokkini Hani which provides different options but expect a 25 minute walk to Kokkini Hani centre. The room was large but not without the usual Greek plumbing issues easily resolvable with a little imagination and adaptation. Pool and bar area is nice enough and the bus stop is literally right outside. Fantastic value for money we would definitely return to Olga should we return to the area. We found Gournes/ Kokkini Hani a little quiet but likely different in high season. I recommend 100% Yammas Georgios. Very best wishes for the future Ian & Sue
