Greek Islands Studios Overview

First Impressions

Kardamaina is one of those places on Kos that still feels genuinely Greek, even in the middle of summer — and Greek Islands Studios fits right into that vibe. It’s a modest, well-kept three-star property on the main street, and honestly, the first thing you notice is how easy everything feels. No fuss, no pretension, just a clean and welcoming spot that does exactly what it promises.

Location & Neighbourhood

The location here is genuinely one of the best things about staying at Greek Islands Studios. You’re right in the heart of Kardamaina, which means the beach, the tavernas, the little shops selling fresh fruit and local honey — all of it is basically on your doorstep. Couples especially seem to love it here, and I get why — there’s something really nice about being able to wander out in the evening without needing a taxi or a plan. The location score sits at 9.0, which, for a resort town like this, is saying something.

The Studios

The studios themselves are simple but thoughtfully set up — you get the sense that someone actually thought about what a traveller needs rather than just filling a room with furniture. There’s enough space to feel comfortable, and the self-catering setup is handy if you want to grab some local produce from the market and cook your own breakfast one morning. I mean, it’s not going to blow you away with interior design, but it’s clean, it’s practical, and it feels like a proper base rather than just somewhere to sleep.

Getting Around

One thing worth mentioning — and this matters more than people realise on Greek islands — is that parking is free on site. If you’re planning to rent a car or a scooter to explore the rest of Kos (and you really should, the island is beautiful once you get off the main tourist strip), that’s a genuinely useful perk. Kos Town is only about 30 kilometres away, and the road along the coast is a pretty easy drive. Having somewhere to leave the car without worrying about it makes the whole trip feel a bit more relaxed.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back to Greek Islands Studios, I think, is that it just works. The rating sits at 8.8, which for a three-star in a busy resort area is actually really solid — that kind of score doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the sort of place where the staff know the area, the location saves you time and money every single day, and you’re not paying for things you don’t need. If you’re after a comfortable, well-located base in Kardamaina — whether you’re a couple looking for a relaxed Greek escape or someone who wants to explore the island properly — this place makes a lot of sense.

Reviews of Greek Islands Studios

  • Patrick from Thailand (9/10)

    This is not 4 star but you get what you pay for. We felt very relaxed staying at the Greek island studios. Nothing was a problem. Nikos picked us up from the airport and organised a taxi for our onward journey. He bed was very comfortable and we felt very much at home.

  • Claire from Australia (8/10)

    The host was lovely, and the room was clean and had all the amenities needed. I only stayed for one night, but it was close enough to restaurants and the beach.

  • Danielle from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Great location big apartment will be back

  • Carlos from Brazil (9/10)

    Very well-located, on the main road before Kardamena's center, but far enough from it that you don't hear noisy drunk tourists, despite being on a 10-minute walk distance. Quieter and more secluded beaches nearby, like Banana Beach, also very close to a supermarket and rental car agency. Everything I needed at the apartment, great for up to 2 people travelling together.

  • Lee from United Kingdom (9/10)

    The rooms were well appointed and in a great location. Beds were fairly comfortable and the balcony was a great space. Staff were friendly and helpful and the location was nice and easy access to restaurants and facilities.

  • Grinshpun from Israel (9/10)

    Everything was great.

  • Janice from Finland (9/10)

    The location is about 7 Minutes walk from the bus stop.There were several groceries along the main road and convenience stores towards the beach area which is just few blocks away. The owner actually the one who asked us if we are looking for the Greek island studios so basically he found us first . The room was tidy, quite spacious and nice balcony which happened to be front lawn of the building. Air conditioner works good and bathroom was clean and well lighted.
