Enjoyable Family Holiday
Stayed at Ikaros for a family holiday and had an enjoyable, relaxing time. The food was lovely and fresh, with lots of choice and different options each night (with a good selection for vegetarians). We also liked having a few different bars to choose from each night. For lunch we often ate in the resort's beachside restaurant, lots of delicious salads to share between us.
The beach was clean and the sea very blue and clear; however as the beach is not secluded there were a few sunglasses/fruit vendors walking up and down. I would recommend bringing clips to attach towels for extra shade on the loungers. Aside from this, we loved being able to swim every day as the beach is quite shallow for a while with enough space for all guests to swim comfortably.
Our room was spacious and clean, but a few things to bear in mind:
-
We requested a twin room (this has been no problem at other Greek resorts we have visited) yet unfortunately this was not delivered. Instead of separate beds, we had one double with two duvets - obviously not ideal for two siblings sharing a room.
-
There is no separate ensuite bathroom - instead one shower cubicle and one toilet cubicle, each separated by frosted glass doors. This meant one of us had to either leave the room or wait on the balcony while the other changed or showered.
Overall, we had a good experience at Ikaros, particularly the resort's beach, restaurants and bars. We also liked being only a ten minute taxi away from the town and walking distance to Stalis.

Incredible
The service was incredible, everybody was really nice and professional. Especially Anneta my massage therapist who helped me a lot with the pain I had in my shoulders and my back. Thank you so much
Week Away from the Mad house
Hotel was spotless with an amazing beach and pool areas. Food was fantastic and all staff polite and helpful. Two very small criticisms but these would only alter my review from 5 to 4.9 was... one of the food nights was Mediterranean and virtually every dish was fish so we had to eat out and the beds were two singles pushed together and came apart a little sometimes. Would definitely stay again. Also hotel is alot closer to bars restaurants and shops than many holiday websites intimated. Basically 5 mins and there's a plethora of restaurants, cocktail bars and shops

Unforgettable night! Real DJ vibes and pure paradise
What an incredible evening! While spending time at the hotel’s Daedalus seaside bar, we heard there would be a disco night with a DJ later on. We were a bit skeptical at first, as many hotels just assign an amateur animation team member and call it a "DJ night." However, this was on a whole different level.
The DJ was a true professional who kept the energy high with an incredible set, and the entire crowd was on their feet dancing all night long. You really have to experience it to believe it! To top it all off, we ended the night by taking a spontaneous dip in the sea right off the hotel’s golden sandy beach—fully clothed! It truly felt like paradise. We feel so lucky to have been there!
