On our arrival in glorious sunshine our welcome was second to none and so it continued throughout our week long stay. This totally amazing hotel is truly a 5* experience. We have stayed in many 5* hotels around the world and the Oceania achieves this standard even though it is fully inclusive. Being a family holiday...... ourselves being old age pensioners, along with our 2 daughters, and a 5 year old granddaughter, this was a perfect environment with everything we could wish for in a beautiful setting. We spent lazy days on the beach and around the pools being pandered to with anything we desired. Wonderful memories of the different evenings having international cuisine and first class service. We will be booking to return very soon and for many more years to come.

This is an amazing hotel. We had never stayed at a fully inclusive hotel before so were wary, but we had heard good reports so decided to try it with our 2 daughters and 5 year old granddaughter. All the lovely staff, from management down, could not be more kind and caring. We were spoilt for food and drink with choices of restaurants all day long. This is truly 5* and our only negative is that we didn't stay longer. We are definitely returning.

My wife and I have just had a new experience by stopping in the best hotel of this type ever. The all inclusive has taken on a new meaning for us. every thing you could imagine and more. The staff could not be bettered anywhere, so helpful and nice and friendly, nothing to much trouble. The food, restaurants, and bars, the best ever.

From the moment we arrived at the Olivia we knew it was going to be a special holiday. Sparkling wine on arrival and a full explanation of facilities available. On arrival at our one bed family suite sea view first floor (reserved for 2 x adults) we were very impressed. The attention to detail was excellent, bedding, pillows, towels, shampoo, conditioner, bathrobes & slippers of high quality. Furnishings and lay out of the suite was stunning and the balcony was spacious. The mini bar was stocked daily and a good supply of Nespresso in the room. It was spotless when we arrived and the maid service and turn down service ensured it remained the same throughout our stay. On the night of arrival we ordered room service which was prompt and the food was excellent.
The waiter service by the pool and beach was fabulous as was the service in EVERY restaurant. The food was of an exceptional standard. It was difficult to choose a favourite restaurant - they were all so different in décor but all stunning. The grounds are very well kept and although the rooms were full it remained spacious and never appeared to be busy.
Do take advantage of the dine out, it is authentic Greek and well worth a couple of visits if you are there for 2 weeks. The village is small with a few bars and eateries but more were opening on a weekly basis. We took a car for a day and drove around various parts of Halkidiki, it was worthwhile. This is a true 5* Hotel offering impeccable service and hospitality, perhaps the best I have stayed in Europe. I do not have any reservations about returning and look forward to my next visit.

My wife and I have just returned from a week in IKOS Oceania, with 2 friends. On our last evening there, one of our friends asked us all, "What was the highlight of your holiday"?
Now ordinarily that would not be a difficult question to answer, however, in this instance, it was because this probably rates as the best hotel we have stayed in. Not only is it ideal for families with all of the amenities and children's club provided but adults without children will find this exceptional too, for just plain relaxing...
Upon arrival, our car pulled up outside the main entrance behind a lovely fountain. Several members of staff were on hand to assist us out of the vehicle and handle our luggage. We were escorted inside to what I can only describe as an impressive reception area, shown to a comfortable set of armchairs/sofa's and given some champagne while we were informed about everything we needed to be aware of, in order to enjoy our stay, during this time, our luggage was being delivered to our rooms. This "booking in" experience was the most impressive and enjoyable we have experienced and was painless, quick and relaxed.
The back of the reception area boasts a huge and impressive sun deck with a wonderful uninterrupted sea view and the most comfortable outdoor furniture. The bar is situated opposite the reception desk and runs the whole length of the wall.
Although we were in Promo rooms, they were excellent and contained not only the usual bathroom shampoo, conditioner, etc but also bath robes, slippers, plenty of towels, kettle, Krupps coffee machine, fully stocked mini bar fridge (restocked every day). There are many other things in the room which you can find out about on the website.
As well as the main buffet restaurant, there are 4 other restaurants on site (French, Asian, Italian, Greek) plus a traditional Greek Taverna (off-site) all available for your use, although you must book these in advance. If you visit the off-site Taverna, you will be taken by one of the many drivers, such as Tilemachos and they will pick you up when you are ready to return.The on-site Greek restaurant run by Theo is excellent and was our favourite. He and his staff are very friendly and efficient and a joy to talk to.
There are several infinity pools (again see the website) but we mostly used the main pool area where the staff will come round and deliver your drinks without you having to move a muscle or interfere with your sunbathing. The servers here are excellent and the ever smiling Katarina is a shining star, loved by both the children and adults alike.
If you have any questions you can speak to Vangelis, Anna or Rafailia who are Guest Services in the reception area on the 6th floor. They are always on hand to help and are delightful just to stop and talk to.
You can use the Adults only bar or main bar in the reception area where there are many sofa's and armchairs. Among others, Georgia, Stella and Thekla will deliver any drink your heart desires (all branded drinks, no "local brands" here) with huge smiles on their faces and the aim of ensuring you are happy and relaxed.
Also, they do not employ the use of those awful wristbands that other hotels seem to want to inflict on their guests, here you just quote your room number.
There is a Spa/Gym and Indoor pool at your disposal, however, you do have pay for any massage/spa treatments you may choose.
This is a large resort and for your comfort and use, there are golf buggies at your disposal and you can be driven wherever you want.
What more should I say. The food is excellent and there is incredible choice, 24 hour Room service, rooms cleaned daily, wonderful staff who GENUINELY cannot do enough for you. In short, nothing is too much trouble...
It's very rare to find a hotel full of genuine staff who are happy to do anything it takes to ensure that you have the best holiday imaginable. There are no hidden charges, you could arrive from the airport with absolutely no money, eat and drink the very best and enjoy all of the amenities with no extra charge. There are so many activities, that it would be wise to check the website.
At this hotel, All Inclusive really is All Inclusive........
Oh and bye the way - "what was the highlight of my holiday"?
Without doubt, for me it was arrival and booking in process, which upon your arrival is conducted in such a way as to make you feel not only special but VERY special which carries on throughout your stay. What a way to begin your holiday...... so good that we have already re-booked to return in October
Room Tip: All rooms are good

I cannot rate this place high enough. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and anything you want they get it for you. Everything is included including ALL drinks and food and 24 hour room service in case the 5 restaurants are not enough. The hotel is very clean and they even give you towels around the pool so you don't have to carry your own. Only small downside is lack of kids entertainment in the evening but you can choose from loads of dvd's to play in your room and they have kids clubs in the day. A true 5 star experience and I will definitely be coming back next year. Special shout out to Maria who answered all our prayers!

This was our first family holiday with a 2 & 6 year old so we were apprehensive, but we shouldn't have been!
A perfect holiday, great facilities, clean, wonderful food and drink and the staff were fantastic, they were great with the children, made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
Our eldest has asked to go back ever since and this year we are and can't wait!
We couldn't stretch to the deluxe rooms this time, so are hoping to experience a holiday as fantastic as last time.
