I didn't stay here, i was over the road at the Nikos, but used the pool snack bar everyday. Yes it is at the top of the hill, took approx 8 mins to walk down to the main resort road and 10-12 mins back up.
The pool is very nice with fantastic views over the resort. The pool bar was fairly quiet, no loud music. Good snack menu. A large Mythos was 2.50 euros
They do a pub quiz on wednesday nights and a BBQ on friday nights.
Very friendly couple behind the bar
sorry can't tell you about the rooms, but they look modern from the outside | |

Hi, myself, husband and three children have just returned from an excellent holiday. We stayed in the two storey apartments and as others have already said they were superb. They were clean, extremely large and everything that we hoped for. The views we had looking out over Lassi were breath taking and the sunsets were really beautiful. Nick the barman/cook was very welcoming and Lara (who is from GB) was so friendly. We met two other families who were great company and all the children got on so well. The food served was fab. and Nick's BBQ on Saturday nights were amazing. I am sure we had half a cow each and a few other animals too. Nick's singing has to be heard to be believed, I'll say no more. The walk to Lassi itself wasn't as bad as we were first expected and a taxi home was only 5 euros. Also just 5 euros to Agostoli was so reasonable. We were all very sad to leave, but there is always next year. Anyone thinking of staying here should book it now, as we all highly recommend it, and say hello to Nick and Lara for us. A truly magical island. | |

Yes, it IS steep walking up to Olive Gardens but it is quite do-able with a push chair if you take it slowly. And of course there are always taxis waiting at the bottom by the supermarket if you're really desperate, and they're quite reasonable. The tour operators DON'T leave you to walk up. Our coach dropoff point and pickup was at the Pefanos office, but they laid on a minibus or taxis from there to the Olive Garden and back again at the end of the holiday. The views and sunsets from the Olive Gardens are out of this world and well worth the climb. Go for it, and just allow some funds for taxis in case you get desperate (2 or 3 euros to take you up the hill)!! | ||||||||||

Hi, We visited Marinos Apartments in Sept 06 which we loved but I've noticed The Olive Gardens are slightly cheaper and have more facilities.
Can anyone tell me is the steep hill going to be a pain with a 3 stone child in a pushchair? Marinos Appts were steep and we were at the top but we coped fine.
Also when the coach drops you off do they take you up the hill to the Olive Gardens or do you have to hike up with your cases?
Thanks! | ||||||||||

We had a great stay at these apartments during July. The views are breathtaking and the bar and terrace are first class. A lot of reviews mention the steep hill, we found it ok to walk up at night, but would not recommend it during the heat of the day. We had one of the two bedroom apartments with the spiral staircase. The apartment was spacious but would benefit greatly from a sofa and some balcony furniture. It was a nuisance having to move the main table in and out of the living room for alfresco breakfasts. All the staff were very cheery, Nick does really good food and the apartments were swept daily, mopped every 4 days and sheets/towels changed about every three days.
The beach at Lassi is excellent with crystal claer water, good beach bars and watersports. Lassi itself isn't that inspiring, but there are some good restaurants and cocktail bars. Ozzi's at the top end of the strip does a very reasonable Friday night barbeque. Teenagers will find it a bit on the quiet side, although my two didn't complain too much. Argostoli is worth visiting at night for a wider choice of eating and drinking places. Car hire is a must to see the sights on this lovely island. As usual, the local prices for coach and boat excursions are much cheaper than those touted by the Reps. | ||||||||||

We have just returned from The Olive Tree Appartments. We thought the resort was excellent and very clean. Our only regret was not getting to know Nick (the bar owner) earlier in our stay. He is a really gentleman, a mine of information, a great wit and good craic. He is also very good with the kids and his steaks are excellent.. | ||||||||||
