Cavos Beach House

“No fuss, basic, perfectly acceptable.”

We arrived on 13th August, phoned Maria to advise we were ready to check in, she was there within five minutes. She was polite and helpful, giving a discount for a local steakhouse.

We arrived on 13th August, phoned Maria to advise we were ready to check in, she was there within five minutes. She was polite and helpful, giving a discount for a local steakhouse. She showed us to our room, explained that she was contactable on the number provided (written everywhere) and left us too it. Our room was basic but you get what you pay for, it was clean, functional, shower pressure was more than okay, air conditioning (you have to pay) was exactly what was needed, the kitchen area was again, basic but, it did what it needed to do. Sadly we didn’t have our own private balcony as expected but, did have an area to sit a little further down from our room which, was fine for us. The hotel does not have a pool but, there is one attached to the hotel literally a stones throw away which, we enjoyed each day, they ask you to buy a drink there which, was no problem. The neighbouring hotel does play music but as far as we could tell it didn’t go on too late so, wasn’t an issue. Lots of decent places to eat nearby (try Contessa, lovely) the beach is no more than a few mins walk away although, we chose not to visit there daily, the sunrise on the last morning was stunning, well worth getting up early for and we had the beach to ourselves. Look, this is a low star hotel, don’t book if you want 5* luxury because you will be disappointed. What it is, is a completely acceptable budget hotel, somewhere you can get your head down in a comfortable bed, shower and use as a decent base to explore Kavos however that might look for you! We were really concerned after seeing some of the more recent reviews (after booking) about what we would find here and we were really pleasantly surprised. Maria and her husband were perfectly lovely, polite, helpful and approachable. We had no problems at all, we were considerate of them, their staff and other guests as they were of us. I’d happily go back and stay here again.

“Misleading images - no pool area”

We were a group of 5 girls on a 4 night stay and got upgraded to an apartment so we could all be together which was nice. Hotel does have wifi but signal is patchy.

We were a group of 5 girls on a 4 night stay and got upgraded to an apartment so we could all be together which was nice. Hotel does have wifi but signal is patchy. Room was clean and tidy on arrival. Only issue with the room was the shower. Very small, dirty and awful water pressure meant it almost impossible for us to wash hair. Main complaint about the hotel was the lack of pool. Online when we booked it and when looking up reviews including on Trip Advisor, it clearly shows ‘Cavo D’Oro’ as the pool area with sun loungers and a bar. This is in fact a completely different hotel with a pool and bar, 5 mins down the road and we were unable to use any of the facilities unless we wanted to pay €10 per person, per day. Very misleading when booking the holiday as the main images show the pool area. Whereas Cavos Beach House Hotel does not have a pool. Another thing we found a little strange, was the of the hotel Maria (who was also the housekeeping) but would come into our room unannounced, at random times of day. This included 8pm when we were getting ready and 11am when we were sleeping.
