Advantages: close to town, close to beach, spotlessly clean, adequate for cheap holiday Disadvantages: no life, no air conditioning, very basic facilities, bit noisy in the early morning
Today's date is Tuesday, 1st September 2009. Varkas Apartments often seems to get a bad press so I thought it was about time their review status was updated: we have recently returned from staying there and, from the experience of myself and my husband, we believe many of those adverse comments are vastly unwarranted. My husband and I returned from a two-week holiday in Kardamena on 27th August 2009 where we stayed [for both those weeks] in the Varkas ... ...just a studio - very basic as per the brochure - but that's what we paid for. We had an enormously large main room, with 2 x 3 foot beds on one side of the room, a closet and basic dressing table/stool. At this side of the room French windows led out onto a balcony which, itself was a good enough size. The balcony had a dryer, a plastic table and 3 x plastic chairs. At the other side of our large studio room was a day bed made up to accommodate a ...

~*~ KOS AIRPORT ~*~

~*~KARDAMOS HOTEL~*~
The trip to the hotel was about half an hour maybe longer I didn't really notice I was having fun looking around. The hotel we stayed in was the kardamos which was a really friendly hotel the staff are so nice and helpful, reception is open 24hours so you leave your key with them and pick it up when you get back which is a really good idea as there is a fine for losing it.

Advantages: lively, fun, busy Disadvantages: slightly out of town
there are 2 parts to the kardamos hotel in kos. one, is the hotel itself, very much an 18-30 resort with small rooms and lively atmosphere, the other is the kardamos studios, directly opposite the hotel accross the swimming pool, which are more traditionally greek, with white walls and tiled floors, and a great view over the town of kardamena and the agean. the facilities in both the hotel and studios are basic, but then what more do you need for ... ...away that you dont get all of the noise from the lively town and bar street, but not far enough away to give you troule walking to and from. about a ten minute walk door to bar ;)
the pool at the hotel is awesome, slightly chilly early in season, but maintained well, and always busy and lively. the pool bar serves great food and cheap drinks all day every day! ...
