White Olive Elite Laganas offers an excellent stay with top-tier service and amenities. The food is exceptional, offering a variety of delicious options that cater to different tastes. The hotel's overall standard meets the expectations of a 5-star property, providing clean, comfortable rooms and beautiful facilities.
A special shout-out goes to Alexandros in the restaurant. He welcomes guests with a warm smile and is always ready to assist, making dining a truly pleasant experience. His friendliness and professionalism truly stand out, enhancing the overall experience at the hotel. Highly recommended for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday!

I travel both for business and pleasure several times a year to various destinations around the world. The hotels have been as diverse as the countries they were in, ranging from small family-run inns to huge hotel chains with multiple stars on their facades. However, I've never encountered something quite like this before: such a kind and attentive team. The ladies at the reception desk were extremely competent and helpful from day one until our departure. The service team in the dining area and restaurants was always very attentive and friendly. Like many reviewers before me, I would like to highlight one person in particular, and that is the service manager, Alexandros. I have rarely met such a friendly and professional hotel employee. Alex had a smile on his face and greeted every guest like a friend. He is very attentive and has trained his staff excellently for the job. His friendly manner truly enriched our stay and made it even more enjoyable.

I had an amazing stay with my friend at this hotel. Nice rooms, nice pool area and food. Especially thanks to restaurant and pool bar manager Alexandros, who made our stay the absolute best. He was amazing, and one of the most positive, kind and smiling staff, I have ever experienced. All the staff was very kind, but Alexandros was just the best of the best i have ever experienced. I can totally recommend this hotel.

We were expecting to come for a relaxed stay, unfortunately due to quite some guests, who refused to behave and keep silent in the night time, we were leaving disappointed and tired. In particular, hotel security keeps begging drunk guests to be silent and the drunk guests promise it is their last drink. However this sort of game continues typically for hours, either some other mad guests intervene or the drunk wrongdoers simply pass out. This is a big pity for the hotel, because the personnel is otherwise very nice and friendly, particularly the supervisor of the dining room, who was always doing his best to make the guests fully satisfied. Regarding location, hotel is situated in walking distance from beach. Also quite some bars and restaurants are nearby, including bus stop to Zakynthos town. Regarding the food, we generally liked it, despite of not very wide selection of fresh fruit. An issue worth mentioning was the salty water running from the tap. It was not possible to drink and also washing clothes was very challenging. Concerning the rooms, they were new and modern, with super comfortable beds and small fridge, but sound proofing was very poor. One could hear loud guests from the pool area and from corridor in the night. All in all, if you look for a place to relax, recharge batteries and have no stress, this hotel cannot be recommended.
PS: Considering large amount of top reviews from users having only one or just few of them, I suspect that hotel fakes 5 stars reviews to keep the high rating. I believe that the high quality should be maintained otherwise.

We had a delightful stay. The food was diverse and delicious. The rooms were clean, well-equipped, spacious, and comfortable. All the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
The only downside was the distance between the hotel and the beach, particularly since there is no beach bar and you have to buy drinks at the market or bring them with you. Additionally, the hotel provided only one water bottle per stay, which was unexpected as the tap water is not drinkable and other hotels usually provide a new bottle of water daily. However, we opted to refill it at the pool bar without any issue.
I also strongly recommend bringing your own sunshade since renting one at the beach costs between 15-50 € per day. On the positive side, at the pool, sunbeds and sunshades are free and plentiful.
Both evening programs were also incredibly enjoyable; I would have loved for there to be one every night.
