A beautiful boutique beachfront resort with amazing 5* restaurants and facilities. We travelled with our two year old and there were endless options to keep her happy and entertained. We have no complaints about service. If anything they went over and above. I would definitely recommend Odisia for a family holiday if you're looking for fun for the whole family. We're already planning our next visit.

We stayed for 10 days. Odisia is beautiful, and offers an amazing variety of pool area’s, bars and restaurants all the way to the beach. Staff was amazing and we had no issues. However, the room was very underwhelming. With a baby, we were placed extremely close to the reception, and every evening and night we suffered extreme noise complaints. Sooo much noise comes into this room, its ridiculous. We complained multiple times, but there was no better room available. Although is very nice concering what they could do, it made it so that we were happy to go back home. If you get a room at garden village, be prepared for all the irritating noise.

Excellent facilities, food and views. Spent a huge amount to take family of 13 away for a week. Biggest issues we faced included:
1. Buggies - not enough of them for such a vast resort especially when you have grandparents who struggle with mobility. Waited over 25 minutes for one buggy. Waited for over 10 minutes on other occasions and then simply gave up! A high profile footballer was there with his family. We were told we couldn’t arrange specific times for the buggy to collect our family from the restaurant but that was clearly not the case for him despite both my family and his staying in the “deluxe” apartments - clearly his money is greener than ours!
2. Shower issues in one room that had to be fixed on 2 separate occasions
3. Ant infestation in our deluxe apartment - had to call several times to sort issue.
My experience was heavily influenced by the buggy issue and others seemingly receiving better treatment due to the high profile name. I’ve visited 3 IKOS resorts over the past 3 years and spent in excess of £100k. Next time I’ll be reviewing my options and looking for alternatives which is something I thought I’d never say!

We visited in October, this was our fourth Ikos resort and it was our favourite.
The resort is large but easy to get around, the gardens are very well kept pool / pool areas are extremely well maintained.
I feel Ikos could improve their menus in some of the restaurants and have more choice but the food is very nice in general. Compared to sandals I think sandals have the upper hand with a couple of their restaurants and food quality being better.
The rooms are very well maintained and a very high quality.
My only issue with Ikos is the headache of organising restaurant bookings before travelling as slots fill up quick even though the restaurants are never full and always have space even when they say their full, although I contacted Ikos about this problem before arrival and they went out of their way to get the reservations organised for us which shouldn’t of been necessary but it is appreciated that their resolved the problem.
There’s a similar issue with the Tesla hire, we always take one out for the day and it’s a good incentive for us to keep returning to Ikos, although booking one always seems to be problematic they manage to get us a booking, there always seems to be a lot of Tesla’s in the car park even when their bookings are ‘full’
My only big issue is the incentive to return to Ikos resorts hasn’t been clear or easy, I have only just found out that there is a small discount for returning guests, we have always booked with Jet2 as the deals have always been better, but surely booking with Ikos direct should be cheaper and returning guests should be well looked after, I have 63 nights with Sandals and after 70 I get a free week, they also have other tiers of rewards the more you stay. We usually book 3 rooms with my parents and sisters family joint us so I feel the incentives and rewards for returning guests really needs improving as the prices are continuing to rise with no great improvements for your money.
This isn’t to say that I don’t love Ikos, but I feel it needs reviewing and improving.

We had a wonderful time as a family of 4. To quote my 7 and 5 year olds, Ikos Odisia has "the best chicken nuggets they've ever had".
Rooms are not particularly plush but are functional. Everything is still very new since the resort was only built last year.
Service is excellent and everyone we interacted with did their best. Maybe they could use a few more staff in the bars to reduce waiting times but it's a very minor complaint.
The food was mostly excellent. I especially appreciated that all venues had a kids menu for fussy eaters.
The free Tesla hire is stress free and a great perk, we used it to explore the island.
The beaches are lovely, plenty of sand and lots of shallow water for the children to explore. Lounger service everywhere.
Very few complaints, I would definitely return.
