“Hotel Corali”

This hotel gave me so many mixed feelings that I've decided to put my review in English. Generally hotel Corali is place of contrasts. It is rated as 4 stars hotel, but the only moment you will feel the stars is the tourist tax which will be settled during check in: 10 euro per night. Then you will be amazed by the garden. It is very nice and well-keeped. But then you will see your room, which is an European standard from 2000. Remeber when I've mentioned that's a hotel of contrasts? It does not matter that room is clean, maintained daily if the first thing which you will expierence entering the room is nasty odor from restroom. The "smell of pipes" is spreaded in whole room. In addition you need to make some friends among the ants, because they will visit you daily. Room is missing basic stuff: kettle, drinking water or iron. Bathroom is old, small, and smelly but cleaned daily. After all you will not spend your entire time in the room, so maybe this expierence will be balanced by the quality of the food or something else. Then you will have a breakfast/lunch/dinner. And again, the food is tasty, but it changes harldy ever. It is lacking the traditional greek cousine. You will eat almost same dish every day. Tomatoes in greek salad are semi green. If you are expecting to expierence various Greek cousine this is not a place to be. The staff is nice and they are doing their best to match 4 Star rating. But again, drinks are Simple, served in disposable cups. Snacks consist of Sandwich, 3 types of fruits and some ice creams. That's it. Pools are great, but they missing warm jacuzzi. But the localization is nice: 400m to nearest sandy beach with changing rooms. To sum up: hotel Corali is pretending to be something which it is not. If they reduce rating from 4 to 3 stars it would be completly fair deal. I mean with 3* it would be reasonable price to quality ratio. But with 4 stars I am just feeling cheated. Dont forget to bring your own earplugs. I don't know how they managed to achive this but you will hear everything. I mean EVERYTHING, from shouts outside to the sounds of furniture being dragged around in the room above you. Ultimately plesant at 8 in the morning. My last visit there for sure. October 23th, for the whole week there was a poster that on every Friday evening starting from 21:30 there should be "Greek night". Aparently for Corali 23.10.2026 is not a friday, because they posters were ripped very same day, and we got prepared scene, equipment but the event was missing. One may ask why? Good question. And this is also a excellent sum up of this hotel overall expierence. It is, it works, but dont expect nothing more than bare miniminum.

“Would not return”

Can’t fault the cleaners, they were really good. They added finishing touch everytime and they even folded our clothes. However, the food was disgusting. It was bland, no flavour and cold. Options were very limited. I have an autistic child with ARFID and she could not eat there. There was no pizza option or any option favourable for children. I feel the hotel cater for other nationalities but not English. There was fish with eyes, cold soup and no general English food. The chicken nuggets were not chicken it was a grey substance. When I approached hotel reception staff about the cold food, the response was ‘there is a microwave if you want to heat it up’. Me and my family ended up eating out in Tingaki and Kardamina 5 out of 7 days. We paid for all inclusive but it wasn’t really. There were no pool towels available on any day, and no drinks in the fridges in rooms as all inclusive would usually. Coffee machines not working and no kettle in room. Toaster kept clogging. The pool lunch bar food was better but it was the same roll everyday and no other option other than ice cream. On the 2 days it rained there was nothing to do at the hotel. We spent 2 days of our holiday having to play cards in our room. Kids club didn’t start til 8.30pm. That was terrible to be fair. There was a stray dog that kept entering the hotel facilities every night as it was hungry and staff let it wonder round. To be honest I will not be returning.

“We loved it !!”

We stayed for a week early October . The Hotel rooms are basic ( as all Greece is ) but spotlessly clean and a bonus of a fridge .( As English couples a kettle would have been a real win !!! ) Fresh towels and sheets every day but Sundays , a really good choice of food 3 times a day, plus snacks at the pools , we liked the local wines and beers . All the staff are very helpful and friendly , some of them seen to be onsite 23 hours but never stop being kind . The lovely ladies to mention are Kiki in the restaurant , Ferenoula at the top pool bar ( i think that's the spelling ) and the fantastic French lady on entertainment and pool aerobics who's name we didn't get !! All in all, for what we paid and what we got, we couldn't fault our stay and will return .

“Here’s my review of two weeks in Kos, via Tui, staying at Hotel Corali in Tigaki.”

Tigaki: a nice small town in the North of the island with a long stretch of beach. Plenty of tourist shops and places to eat, and loads of car hire places. The sea was quite choppy most days due to the wind from the North, windy most days. Sunbeds cost around €20 per parasol. Sand is okay but quite grainy, some shingle as you get into the sea, then soft sand and shallow for quite a distance into the water. Saw jellyfish towards the end of our two week stay, end September early October. Probably due to the water being warm. Hotel Corali was good, booked two rooms for four of us which were on the top floor with distant sea views. Rooms were basic but clean, beds not especially comfortable even with an extra pillow and mattress topper, but they were okay once you get used to them. Air con worked fine and didn’t smell bad like some do. Shower was not great, small bath with shower over. Easy to get the floor wet due to flimsy shower curtain. One of the shower heads could not be adjusted so had to hold it to wash. One of the rooms had no lock on bathroom door. My suggestion for the hotel to improve this would be to put a handle within the shower, so you have something to grip onto and get in and out safely. Tourist tax was 10 euro per room per night – they offered cash or card payment when we checked in. The entrance to one of our rooms was hard to unlock, and to close. Plenty of storage in the room. TV but only English channels seem to be news channels. Nice to have a fridge in each room. Food: good variety all day. I preferred the lunchtime selection. Breakfast was quite repetitive, but there is only so many items you can expect for breakfast. Duck was delicious, and turkey chunks in a creamy sauce was good too. Some of the dishes were luke warm at best, although there is a microwave if you want to heat things up. Self service hot and cold drinks in restaurant which is handy. This includes beer and wine and soft drinks. Service at tables is generally quick and efficient. If food runs out it is replaced quickly. The restaurant staff were all friendly and efficient, and hard working. Pools: choice of two, both with bars serving drinks and snacks. Chilled music, plenty of good sunbeds and parasols. Towels available from the pool at 11am but sometimes these were late and clearly caused some frustration with guests when this happened. Water was quite cold, but this is to be expected at the time of year, warmest in the afternoon. Some signs of green mold in places around the pool. Only saw animation team once each day’s for water polo which nobody participated in. They asked about Yoga a couple of times. There is an agenda for events at reception but they do not appear to be following this. They were present in the evening for entertainment during the week days. Entertainment was good on the whole, only takes place Mon to Fri. Couple of singing acts, karaoke night went down well, as did Greek night. Bingo costs €5 per ticket, no idea what the prize is. Music quiz, which was fun, but when me and my daughter won, the winner was not announced and we had no prize given, which was dismissed by the animation person. Prizes were given the previous week…but we didn’t take part on that night. Bar staff in all the bars were friendly, helpful and polite. Loved the Rose wine each evening. Cocktails were on the all-inclusive, although Gin and lemonade cannot really be classed as a cocktail, even if it is called Gin Fizz. What we liked were the Mocktails, which you can add alcohol to if you wish. Red Fizz was a particular favorite. The beer is light and very drinkable in the sun. I was disappointed not to be given a bottle of champagne for my birthday though – I did tell them on reception it was my birthday. They said ‘happy birthday’. Location of hotel feels remote, although 400m from beach. We did several excursions through Tui, and had walk to and from the hotel to the sea front along the narrow road and past a building site. This includes at night, using our phone torches after being out all day. Other excursions seem to collect and drop off at the hotel. Not exactly VIP. If you like cats, you will love Kos. Our hotel had lots of ‘resident’ cats that were very friendly and entertaining. They won’t think twice about stealing your sunbed. One of them even made it’s was into our room and settled down on the bed for the evening! Our hotel had a tennis court – a bit weathered but served it’s purpose, and you can get bats and balls from reception. There was also a good gym, table tennis, pool tables etc. Taxi: expensive and unreliable. We downloaded an app for the biggest taxi firm on the island, which worked fine once, but when trying to return from Kos we could not get a taxi for love nor money. We were lucky to get a private hire, which did cost 50% more but vehicle was nice and the driver was great – polite and reliable. Kosdrivr.gr. We went on several excursions, including a half day boat cruise from Kos to Pserimos Island and the Blue Lagoon on a pirate ship – great fun and the island was beautiful. A visit to Nysiros and to see the volcano – a full day out but great and so scenic. We spent the day at Paradise Beach – well worth it and one of the highlights of the trip. The key question is would we go back. The answer, yes on all fronts. We loved the hotel and the island!

“Not for me but a good holiday”

So I'll start by saying this wasn't the right hotel for me but I'll try and keep this depersonalized. Room was dated but very clean, the bed was like sleeping on concrete for the first 2 nights until another guest mentioned mattress toppers were available at reception. After that great sleep, it would have been good to have been told at check in these were available. My personal hate is shower curtains and I had this around a very small shower space meaning it stuck to me with every movement. Air con was efficient and worked perfectly. Food is good, excellent selection which changed daily and surprisingly for an AI was hot. Kudos to the team for this. Pools .. to be fair I only tried this one day and I have never known a more uncomfortable sunbed. There's no mattress topper and I could feel every metal bar. I only managed half a day before giving up and heading to the beach. Location was ok, it's a 5 min walk to the beach and then another 20 into tigaki but along the beach so was a pleasant walk. They could do with some form of lighting along the road up to the hotel as it was incredibly dark and intimidating to walk up alone as a solo female. Staff on reception were incredibly helpful and friendly, restaurant staff I'd say not as friendly but still available to help if approached. Would I stay again no, would I recommend yes I probably would.
