Diamond Deluxe Hotel & Spa – Adults Only (16+)

Diamond Deluxe Hotel & Spa is a five-star beachfront resort with 110 rooms near Kos Town. It opened in 2009 and lets in guests from 16.

Step from your room into the pool

The swim-up rooms, Double Front Pool and Superior Front Pool, come with their own sunbeds by the water, so nobody hunts for a lounger. The Diamond Suite comes with its own pool, and the split-level Villa suits those who want more space. Two outdoor pools, a smaller warm pool and outdoor jacuzzis share the grounds.

Fusion upstairs, breakfast downstairs

Peruzzi serves a fusion set menu with a sunset view. Emerald runs a breakfast buffet until 10.30, and guests also order dishes such as Greek Benedict. At dinner the menu changes nightly and uses local produce, while the wine list is Greek and local.

Spa and fitness

The spa has a hammam, a Rasul and a sauna. It also offers anti-aging treatments backed by a dermatology lab. A personal trainer works in the gym, and yoga, fitness classes and a tennis court fill the day.

Out of the way

Lambi Beach is 2.1 km away. Kos Castle lies 4.7 km away, and the airport 20.9 km, with a paid shuttle. The bus to town stops early in the evening, so you will use taxis then.
