Don't book anywhere else.

Just returned from yet another brilliant holiday at the Zante Star hotel, 7 years we've been going now, but other friends have been going for 20years , great staff also just a nice distance from town, why go anywhere else ? The Olympic rep Neil was a regular visitor and was happy to tell you how to avoid the heat 🥵 of the day and also giving you updates of what there is to do in Tsivili. Don't be slow to book as places are going fast.

The resort was excellent

The resort was excellent. Very clean and tidy.Staff especially the waiters, bar staff and pool staff very efficient and friendly. Cleaning staff good as well as reception.
Pool very nice but quite shallow.
No shuttle bus into Zante town so a bit of a walk but ok.
Excellent service from Neil Fawcett who explained about the island and car hire etc and great follow up on arrival and collection.

First time booking with Olympic…

First time booking with Olympic Holidays and would definitely book with them again. A very supportive customer service team, who helped me with my queries following my booking and Joanne was a great in-resort help when I misplaced my passport. She worked hard to ensure I got it back safely. Thanks for all the support and a great holiday.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We’ve just returned from an amazing island-hopping holiday to Naxos with Olympic Holidays, and I can’t recommend them enough. We were a little unsure what to expect with travelling between different islands and staying in different locations, but everything was so well organised from start to finish.

All of our ferry connections, transfers and flights lined up perfectly, and everything ran like clockwork. It really took the stress out of travelling, allowing us to relax and enjoy our holiday.

The customer service was excellent too. We always felt looked after, with someone on hand to help whenever we needed it. Having UK-based support made a big difference and gave us real peace of mind.

A fantastic holiday company that genuinely cares about its customers. We had a fabulous time and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Olympic Holidays again!

Our Island Hopping holiday to the Cyclades

Our Island Hopping holiday to Santorini, Milos and Mykonos was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Given the number of transfers, ferries and hotels, the bulk of arrangements worked out very well thanks to Olympic.
I especially want to mention the hotel in Santorini (Panorama Suites) which although expensive was quirky and perfectly placed on the edge of the Caldera with excellent service. However the driver (Kamari tours) from the airport just dumped us on the pavement and we had to find our own way to the hotel through a pedestrian zone - not a good way to start the holiday.
The Whatsapp method of communicating with the rep (Joe) worked very well indeed.
There are one or two things I think Olympic could improve upon. Firstly, after the final payment the only communication received was the itinerary. There is a wealth of info on the website but you have to go hunting for it. It would have been nice if Olympic had sent an info pack in advance. Secondly it appears that there is often a persistent Northerly wind which blows through the Cyclades at this time of year. We were not advised of this and it did impact our stay as the sea became very rough. Thirdly one or two of the hotel descriptions were could have been better - 2 lifts and 67 steps to get to our room in Santorini and a so called "garden view room" in Milos with not a garden in sight!

Finally in case its of interest there were no EES checks at Santorini and Mykonos airports - so no delays at either.

Above and beyond

Usual excellent service from Jo, Crete Olympic rep. Met with me at Lato Hotel, Aghios Nikolaos, to make sure all was ok. As an older lady on her own I very much appreciate this. She goes above and beyond to assist in any way she can. If I could make it 6 stars I would. Same with Hotel, it's like going home.

Fulfilled our request

We approached Olympic with a list of where we wanted to stay, which airport we wanted to use etc. and they absolutely fulfilled our wishes. On our 5-week holiday, everything went smoothly - ferries, taxis and accommodation all great. We contacted them a few times and Tara and Joanna were absolutely free. They responded straight away to reassure us about our trip home. We would absolutely recommend.

A delightfully simple booking

I have just booked a 2 week holiday to the Greek island of Tilos, through Gavin. He couldn't have been more helpful or patient as it wasn't very straight forward connecting airline arrivals and ferry departures. I am very grateful to him and although I have never used Olympic Holidays before, I would certainly go to them first for any future bookings.

Fantastic Customer Service

We travelled as a group of 3 girlfriends to Skopelos and Skiathos. The Rep, Jennie, was amazing from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble and she was always available to assist when we had a couple of issues with our second hotel.
Highly recommended.
