Akti Dimmys Studios & Apartments

This was our 1st time on a Greek Island and thanks to the great welcome we received, it won't be the last.
Everywhere was spotlessly clean, the staff were marvellous, the food great. We (my 13 year old son) and I walked into Tingaki a couple of evenings to eat and the restaurants were all good value.
The only downside? The pot they provided to boil water took ages. I'd advise buying a travel kettle if you don't have one.

A superb location. The apartments are small and very basic but very clean. Everyone at the hotel is very friendly and helpful. The cocktail bar is open until last person drops. Only noisy on the karaoke night which is not everybody's cup of tea. A great swimming pool if you need it but the beach is right opposite. You can go a long way out in the sea and not get out of your depth, but not a lot to see if you intend to snorkel.
If you get hungry while sunbathing the doughnut man comes round regularly as does the fresh fruit man, and if you're still not relaxed you can get a very thorough massage! The island is relatively small and best seen under your own steam. We hired a buggy which was great fun and good for the sun tan. Recommend purchasing a map and getting staff at the hotel to mark places to visit. Kos town is best visited on the local bus as it's not easy to find your way around, but well worth the visit, but bear in mind the castle is closed on Mondays.
Can also recommend horse riding on the beach in the evening. Superb! Watch out for the midges though as they are really nasty and persistent. The hotel has a couple of good tavernas close by or a slightly longer stroll takes you to the main village where you can eat somewhere different every night of the week (although the menu probably won't change that much). All serve good food, but ashamed to admit the best meal was from the Chinese Restaurant!
We thought Tingaki had one of the best beaches and best location on the whole island. Trips are available to go scuba diving, Nisyros to see the volcano (it stinks) and trips to Turkey. Only down side was night flights to and from Bristol!

Excellent location to the beach. Very friendly staff and the atmosphere was good. Accomodation was clean but basic. Pool area was clean and was good for children.
It was a nice idea to have someone from the hotel to come on to the beach to ask you if you would like anything from the bar. Didn’t have to lift a finger! The resort is lovely and has different bars/restaurants for everyone. I recommend Scala restaurant for its friendly staff and exceptional Greek cuisine. Never eaten as well!
The bars further into the resort are fairly lively and the prices are cheap. Loved it so much that I’ve booked for next June :)

Our stay at Akti Dimmys was perfect. Spotlessly clean, and the staff were marvellous. Thanks to Angela for making our two grandsons holiday so enjoyable. Brandon could have danced all night. In an ideal location just right to chill out and relax.
Be back in May. Looking forward to seeing everyone again. Everywhere we went we were made to feel very welcome, and trips were simple to arrange. Full marks!!!!
