the hotel was clean and the staff seemed friendly. But certain people must go year after year and meet because the hogged the pool and instantly cliked as soon as they came down from dropping there cases off at the room. jean is a good laugh behind the pool bar. thanks.
Without knocking any other place I have ever stayed in within Tsilivi, I have to say this was by far the best accomodation I have had. We took two grand kids (1 boy, 1 girl) aged 7 and 11, so needed an apartment reather than "rooms". We booked through Kosmar and for our money (almost £1200.00 for two weeks), we got two twin bedded rooms, a proper bathroom rather than shower closet as you often get in Greece, and a kitchen-diner, the kitchen being equipped with a microwave, toaster, kettle, sandwich maker and an multi-point adaptor so you could use several appliances at once... Maid service everyday with some of the towels (of which there was ample) being changed each day. The price may seem a little high to some but we did book at Christmas to make sure we got what we wanted and the flight supplement and fuel surcharge actually account for almost 22% of the total cost.

I WENT WITH MY FAMILY IN AUGUST COULD NOT ARGUE WITH HOTEL OR STAFF ONLY THING THAT SPOILT IT WAS FELLOW BRITS WHO HOGGED THE SUNBEDS , ONE NIGHT AT 1.00AM I WATCHED PEOPLE PUTTING TOWELS ON SUNBEDS , NEEDLESS TO SAY I FLUNG THEM OFF IT WAS FUN WATCHING PEOPLE LOOK FOR THEIR TOWELS THE NEXT DAY.
Mavrikos what a place to stay,couldnt think of anywhere better.Just returned from our fifth stay here,some changes to the hotel this year making it even better,no changes with the staff their fab,Lillys cooking is as near as ,home from home(brilliant),as for Jean,anyone thats met Jean will know what a fantastic funny&helpful person she is.Jonh&marianna are simply the best host you could wish for&although it is their business their No 1 priority is your holiday.Now a note for all those sad people thats given a poor rating, YOU ONLY GET OUT OF YOUR HOLIDAY WHAT YOU PUT IN(try a little harder).
One of the best if not the best hotel/apts on the island. Very clean, big apartments, large pool area and very. very friendly staff. Jean your a legend!!! But remember the ice bucket. I will get you back in 2007.

The Mavrikos hotel is excellent, the staff are great and the rooms are fantastic, anyone who hasnt been nefore will be delighted, it is very child friendly and reps keep them occupied most of the time. The beech is only a short walk away and there are plenty of bars to try out in the villiage.

We are thinking of booking this hotel for Summer 2007, we are 2 adults and one child, could somebody advise best rooms to go for please, we definetly want a fridge and air con.

Just returned after a 2 week stay at the mavrikos hotel for the second year running. Had a fantastic holiday again infact even better this year. The staff are very friendly and hotel remains very nice. John and Marianna are very nice people and all the bar staff, receptionists etc very helpful. We will be returning again in 2006 for another brilliant holiday. Recommend the mavrikos to everyone. Looking forward already to next year. Hayley, Lynne, Dawn and Denise
We have just arrived back from the Mavrikos aparts after a 17 hour delay and overnight stop in Laganas. The accomodation was the pits probably the worst ever in all my greek holidays, if you are allocated room 541 beware. I would advise anyone to pay the 30 euros and get the aircon so as you can close the patio doors at night and shut out the noise from the poolside bar, children run riot til the early hours playing haid and seek up and down the fire ascapes.
Having said all that we had a memorable 2 week stay mainly due to the fact we have a 3 yr old son.We meet some lovely families and Joe still talks about Ashley(not the barman).We will remember young Joshua,Jacob,Luke,Joe,Gaby,Chantelle,Liam & Ryan.HI ALL (ESPECIALLY ASHLEY) KEEP SMILING SON!!
there is a laundry on the main road next to where the supermarket is, the big one near mcdonalds you cant miss it, they wash outfits for you and wash dry iron for small charge as well.
Hello All! Could anyone let me know if there is a laundry in the hotel or near by.My daughter is 3 you see,and no matter how many clothes I take,she'll still manage to get through them all before the fortnight is up.Thanx,Leanne xx. p.s. see you there Fiona!!
Encouraging to see all the good comments. Really looking forward to our holiday at Mavrikos. We're going for two weeks on 12th September 2005, (hope to see you there Leanne!).
Hellooooo, Sarah and Lydia here!!.. We came to The Mavrikos on 5th August 2005, and loved every minute of it!! Just want to say a biiiig thank you to Ashley!! For helping us through the door at the early hours of the morning, after having a few far too many drinks!! .. Keith you're ace.. The KizMister! You always gave us funny looks in the morning as if to say you saw us out drinking the night before! It was great to relax and sunbathe in the daytime, and then jump into the pool when the heat got a little too much for us! David you're just so funny and everything you said was funny, even if you didn't mean it to be!.. And I still think that you cheat when you neck that WKD, in 2 seconds! We will definitely be returning here in the near future as it was a wonderful hotel thank you all very much and one special mention to the maids who cleaned up after us in the morning and sorry
Love you all!! Lydia and Sarah xxxI am going to the Mavrikos on the 1st of Sept 2005 thinking I had booked a 1 bed apart but have been allocated a studio.Can anyone tell me if this is going to be to small/cramped for my wife/son & I.Will I be dissapointed?
Just got home!! Had a great time. Ashley and Dave are great staff at the hotel and Jean and lilly serve really good bar meals. Go into the little church at the back of the hotel, it's lovely. The Greek night was fab and the dancers were great. Met some lovely people while we stayed there. The kids loved it aged 13 15 and almost 16. Safe resort, friendly family atmosphere in the hotel. Just one complaint........no TV in the rooms but there were a couple in reception and at the bar. Overall if your looking for a "family holiday" and have small kids it's ideal, if your kids are older like mine its good because you can let them out and know that they are safe. The whole place is geared up for kids of all ages. Saw a lovely wedding at hotel as well while we were there, all in all it was a good holiday. Transfer time from airport good-20 mins. Drinks expensive all round the resort town but you expect that in another country.
HELLOOOO TO EVERY1 WORKIN AT THA HOTEL WE RELLI ENJOYED IT JOE IS FINE NOW AFTER SPLITING HIS HEAD OPEN ON THE POOL HAHA...MISSING EVERY1 LOADS BUT WE WILL B BAK JAY U NO WHO ER ARE O N JUST TO SAY SORRY TO ANYBODY WE WOKE UP IN THE EARLY HOURS OF THE MORININ WE WAS A BIT DRUNK HAHA WE WILL B BAK LUV EMMA N LOIS 2005MISSING YOU LOTS!!!!!!!!!!

Hi to everyone at the Hotel Mavrikos,
This was the second visit for myself and my daughter and we are looking forward to returning in 2005. Everyone at the hotel were friendly and very helpful, it is clean and very family orientated. Have tried to email Mavrikos but had no reply to find out if they received my room key, which I lost then found when I returned home. And also the t shirts that I sent for the young girl , Elena on reception?? HELLO to Jean,Colin, Keith,Mr and Mrs Mavrikos and all the staff. Take care and see you soon. Julie and Natalie
