I would 1million percent hire a car for a few days as it’s a long walk to the main beach. Although reviews say it’s a short walk to the beach it’s a remote little part of the beach where the locals take a quick dip and lay on towels.
It’s a 15 minute drive to Kos old town and so beautiful.
The only two negatives I have to say about the hotel is the breakfasts are not great, I don’t eat cheese or melon so not great choice. The other negative is that the tiles at the entrance to the room bathroom is a raised step and my mum broke her toe on it as there’s no warning or edging on it.
You need to hire the control of u want to use the air conditioning and the windows have a mesh to stop bugs which is a bonus.
We had a late flight home and the manager only charged us €30 to keep our room until 9pm which was such a relief. He changed rooms around for us to be able to keep our room which is one of the reasons I’d go back so thanku



The staff make this hotel. From the owner George to the cleaners we met in the mornings, always everyone had a smile and a greeting. Blue Nest is situated around 1.5miles from the strip in Tigaki, a good 30/40 min walk into town, or a very good bus service only 7min walk away. 1.80 euro into the square, and 2.10 euro into Kos town. Taxi was 9 euro in evenings back from the strip.
From the outset we knew this hotel was only a 3 star, so, although away a bit from central area, it was quiet and peaceful.
The rooms.....we booked 2 bungalows, obviously we did not know how the set up was for these, in a group of 3 ladies, 2 had an upper floor, and I was placed on ground floor. As a single lady I wasn't happy, I couldn't leave door open at night for air, for security purposes, but that was not my only concern. The original room was very dark, had huge step down from bathroom into bedroom, the loo seat was wobbly, in bathroom, every time I took the towel from plastic hanger on wall the whole thing fell to the floor. But my biggest annoyance was when I found ants crawling over my toilet bag, and my toothbrush!. I also will say that after 2 nights in this room and speaking with george, I was moved to an upper floor, which was much more serviceable. My friends had an issue with their toilet pipe leaking onto the floor, which was a bit of a health hazard, after chasing a few times, within a few days, this was fixed eventually.
I do think when the season is over, there needs to be some maintenance work within the rooms, the outside of rooms look fine, but some better management inside rooms where guests stay is very important.
Breakfast options are very basic, diff cereals, watermelon for fruit, fresh baguettes cut into rounds, some fresh baked cakes, cheese/meat and few other bits. It was fine and kept us going.
We prefer the beach to a pool and I knew before going we could use the facilities at Irina Beach hotel, just before the bus stop. There is a huge pool also, but also a great beach and we tended to decamp there for the day. Loungers free to use, (we paid 12 euro for 2 loungers/parasol on beach 1st day) and there is a lovely poolside place to get food and drinks. For us we preferred this outlook.
To summarise, this is a basic greek hotel, run by delightful people who clearly want to make your stay enjoyable. We had a lovely holiday overall.



I’m writing this at the very end of our last night.
The good…
First and most importantly, what a chilled, no pressure place. Great staff. Attentive but not in your face. Super friendly.
Good, spacious room and balcony. Watch the steps to the bathroom but it’s not a drama.
The warmest pool ever experienced!! Even though the deep end is 3 metres!
When our son got a burnt face (6+ hours in the pool daily) was given fresh aloe Vera that was just amazing.
Greek night, your usual, not me, I don’t want to dance but all ended up dancing and having fun.
Genuinely, small place but never over crowded. Weird really but then the pool was so warm no one was fighting over beds!
Great cocktails, generous alcohol portions.
Wine is decent too. €12 euro a litre. We only had dry white but it was very nice.
Negronis top class and only €8!
Bus is €2 pp ew to tigakiki- really easy return journey for something different.
The average (there’s no bad)
The step to the bathroom, both me and my husband separately fell into the bathroom - no one died or broke a bone - just watch the step.
The shop is 15 min walk - do it when you get here. First thing. Better snacks. Full size fridge do you can avoid paying for food every day.
Breakfast would be what you’d have at home and more. Dont moan. I know you’re on holiday but you don’t need 5 courses. It’s not amazing but it does the job. Bread, ham, meat, cheese, 3 cereal, milk, yogurt and some other bits. You’ll survive.
It’s quiet and slow most nights but always pleasant. We had a 7 year old in tow that could stay with us until 11ish without experiencing any silly behaviour.
As a summary, it’s 3* so you get what you pay for. That said, we’d genuinely come back and appreciate the chilled holiday with the option of a cheap 10 minute bus to the strip.
