Impressions

Lovely short break away! The hotel was very clean and staff were very welcoming especially Georgia who was amazing and very helpful! The hotel is located in a good area with lots of things surrounding. We will definitely return for a longer stay

A very well-managed hotel, Mrs. Georgia takes care of everything, great atmosphere, smiling staff ;) delicious food, 10 types of drinks that the waiters make with a smile on their faces. A small minus is the relatively long distance from the beach, about 10 minutes' walk, but at least you can burn all those calories.

I would like to thank all the staff in White Olive Premium for making my stay very enjoyable, you all went above and beyond to make me feel relaxed, special and cared for. I felt safe as a solo traveller and could count on your expertise and advice about exploring area and booking day trips. I felt no problem was too big. Place is clean and well maintained, meals are simple and good variety, drinks are tasty and prepared to order. Special thanks to Nivin, what a gem. Speaking fluently in 3 languages, always helpful, nice, never too tired and extremely patient, maintaining exceptional and friendly relationship with customers, she is truly a hidden gem of this place. You will go high girl! Big thank you to the bar staff, you are all great team!

We spent nice moments at the hotel, the overall services were professional, the staff was cheerful and friendly, always helping with everything if needed. The food was delicious, you can choose from a lot of options. The rooms were always clean and tidy. Unforgettable experiences, thank you!

I shall keep this short ignore the negative reviews booked the hotel two weeks before arriving, read the reviews and a little concerned but there was no need. The Hotel was spotless and maintained the whole of our stay, the staff gave 100% especially Rashid and Georgia, the food was excellent and always a good variety. I would definitely recommend this Hotel and will return fantastic holiday.

Overall, the positive impression that the White Olive Premium Lindos hotel left on us is hard to put into words. Great staff and people. The housekeepers are totally wonderful - they perfectly take care of the rooms and the area of the hotel. The cusine was good.

My daughter is recovering from an eating disorder and we were very anxious before going over the food situation.
Georgia in the dining room was amazing. My daughter became very upset one night as she is terrified of oils and fats at the moment
She was crying and Georgia came over with tissues and to help
They cooked her some plain rice which she asked for
Then each night after Georgia saw that she had chicken just grilled so she could get something she felt comfortable eating.
Thank you so much for helping especially to Georgia and the chefs in the kitchen xx

Just had a very relaxing 10days family holiday at the hotel which was just the tonic we all needed after Covid, exams, change in jobs etc…..couldn’t have been better, lovely rooms and facilities with great food and very friendly staff, close to the village and beach, many thanks all

We spent a wonderful week's holiday in this hotel in September 2023. The entire facility makes a very good impression. The rooms are not very large, but clean and regularly cleaned. Food tasty and fresh. There are public sun loungers available by the pool, so you don't have to "fight" for them like in other hotels. The hotel's location is also very nice. Close to the beach and shops. What impressed us the most was the hotel service. Everyone was nice, smiling and helpful. I send separate greetings to Georgia, Łukasz x2 and Asia from Poland. You are a great team!

A perfect hotel - beautiful surroundings, clean, delicious food. In a great location. Would recommend if you want a quiet break. All the staff at the hotel were excellent with reception, restaurants and bars very helpful and friendly despite it being close to end of the season. Particularly, Rasheed and Olga in the bar and also Georgia and Angelo in the restaurant. Couldn’t do anymore for you and were very friendly.

Great hotel. Very close to the beach. Clean, modern and comfortable. Felicious and varied food. The hotel and pools were not overcrowded. The biggest plus was the friendly service, always helpful (special thanks to Christos!)

The guys at the bar really made our stay here beautiful.
Food is tasty and tasty, the desserts are the best. The greek cocktails at the bar are amazing, the 3 pools are lovely, it’s a shame that they close at 19.00 PM. However, I highly recommend booking this hotel in laganas, the position is ideal, close to the beach and to the center of laganas. I also recommend booking at least 1 boat trip in zante, i’ve seen the bluest water ever.
Last but not least, big thumbs up to the manager, who always makes sure everything is alright.

Really modern and clean hotel, multiple pools make it so easy to dip in whenever you want. The food is very good quality however if you're a fussy eater you may struggle as they don't always have Chicken nuggets, fries etc. Two members of staff who especially shone were Paulina and Romeo, who were energetic and so kind to us throughout the stay, so much so that they made my holiday!

Excellent hotel. Excellent staff from the reception, cleaning, the dining room with the manager Costas. Highly recommend. They are kind. They help with everything and the hotel is beautiful in a great location. Central and quiet. Thank you very much

Nice and smiling staff. Room cleaning every day, clean towels. There was plenty of food and there was always something to choose from. Great hotel :). I can only recommend, there is a snack all day long, you won't die of hunger here

Had an amazing time at the The White Olive Elite. Stayed for one week and only have the nicest things to say about the hotel, the staff and the food. We had an issue with our room (our fault) and was given the room we wanted with no issue. The staff were so accommodating with all our requests and enquiries. We were very satisfied with the food on offer and as vegetarians felt that we were well catered for. Soecial shout out to Sira and George in reception for making us feel welcome and valued and to Panos in the pool bar who exuded friendliness and positivity. There is no evening entertainment which might not suit some people but it did us. Cannot understand any negative reviews as we really had such a positive experience. Enjoy!

Hotel’s beautiful, very clean, foods also good with wide selection, all very modern. Rooms again very clean and modern, aircon is ice cold, staff were all friendly but Sira was amazing in every way, every time would say hello and hope your having a good day, real lovely women.

Amazing clean friendly hotel. Super staff. Food and drinks were flowing. Pools clean and plenty Sunbeds to go around.
Loved our 4 days here with friends for our 50th’s
Highly recommended.
Although we didn’t have children it was a family friendly hotel. No young (underage) teens.
Thanks all for our stay.

What a lovely hotel, we have stayed in many hotels now and 3 in zante this out does the other hotels.
From first arriving they welcomed us and showed us to our rooms, lovely spacious air conditioned rooms.

Comfy beds and plenty of things in bathroom incase you forget anything like a toothbrush.

Reception was always very helpful giving us directions to where we needed to go.
The hotel food we found no problems with there was plenty of choice and something different every night, we did hear a few youngsters complaining because there wasn't chips every night but you had fresh salads hams cheeses pork beef fish dishes all sorts.

The entertainment lady Victoria was a delight to meet she works so hard in trying get guests enjoy their stay thankyou victoria.

I'd also like give a special mention to evie who works in the dining room my mum is a diabetic and my wife lactose intolerant and she helped guide them to foods that they could have along with the restaurant manager who also helped us.

Thankyou white olive for making some wonderful memories for our family we highly recommend your hotel

Having read some reviews here before visiting this hotel, myself and my partner were a little concerned. We didn't need to be! The hotel is lovely and clean with all of the basic amenities you will need.

The staff are extremely friendly and work incredibly hard every day. Nothing was ever too much bother for them.

The food, yes it was a little basic, but we found something to eat everyday with no issue, and - wait for it - there was actually chips on most days (despite other reviews saying otherwise)! There was some really tasty food throughout our stay but the shining star here has to be the desserts - incredibly good!

There was never any real queues for the drinks, and the hotel is on relatively small grounds so everything was really easily accessible.

The room was spacious and we barely heard any noise whatsoever. The only downside here was the doors being quite heavy so bang easily, however this can be avoided by ensuring you hold the door as it closes so as not to make too much noise.

Please note, this hotel is quite close to the strip, so there were holidaymakers there who had come most likely for the nightlife. Some were a little disruptive, but the hotel staff kept this under control and this did not cause us any problems.

Overall, we had a great holiday here. We would happily return to the White Olive chain in the future.

Clean newer facility. Attentive staff. Close to many restaurants and bars but far enough away from the Laganas night scene. Pool bar staff especially Panos deserve special recognition. Good for couples and families.

We stayed here 1st week of August and were a little hesitant after seeing some of the reviews.

When we arrived we were so pleasantly surprised we had an amazing week! We got early check in without having to ask and were made to feel really welcome. Please ignore the negative reviews.

The staff are all lovely, we are a british couple and most of the hotel staff and guests were Polish but this wasn’t a problem. We enjoyed sitting round the pool and seeing different people it’s a nice change from it just being Brits everywhere.

I’m a VERY fussy eater and this was a concern but I didn’t struggle to find something I liked. We cannot understand how anyone could complain about the food. The cocktails were really nice with a good selection.

The rooms were spotless, we stayed in room 1109 which had a great pool view. Not sure how some reviews said they could hear party music as the strip is quite far so I don’t believe that. The hotel was really quiet.

There was music round the pool and some pool exercise and games which was good - our only fault about the hotel was no evening entertainment which would have been perfect, since there’s no evening entertainment, a shuttle bus into laganas or kalamaki could be a nice touch as we spent quite a bit on taxis some nights. The hotel decorates the pool area with nice lights when it gets dark which is a nice touch and we often sat by the pool on an evening with a beer which was really chilled.

Overall we had an amazing week and we’re really impressed by the hotel and it’s wonderful staff! we would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone! We felt we definitely got our value for money as we didn’t pay too much for our holiday especially with it being in the summer holidays.

The road to the beach is a bit unpleasant but this isn’t the hotels fault and there are alternative ways to get to the beach. It’s only a 5 minute walk so wasn’t too bad, again can’t really complain I think some people are just very hard to please!

We have recently returned from a one week stay at White Olive. I feel I need to single out a few employees who were exceptional. Angela the regional manager who helped us greatly when my son fell ill (not the hotel's fault!). She personally drove my husband to Rhodes town hospital so he could be with me as he was unable to travel in the ambulance. This is above and beyond what I would expect an employee of the hotel to do. Also the restaurant manager was superb, always checking with us regarding the progress of our son and always had a smile on her face. Thank you both for your help. With regards to the hotel. Its a lovely hotel with good rooms which were cleaned to a high standard every day. Food was what you would expect from an all inclusive, usually something you can find to eat although maybe not always the warmest. Pool bar played some good songs but sometimes the songs seemed to stick on the same one for a while! Lovely location just a 5 - 8 min walk into town and the same to the beach. Lovely view from the restaurant and pool area. Staff all around are a credit to White Olive, thanks again for all your help.

We have just returned from a fantastic late October break at White Olive. Perfectly acceptable room, with balcony and excellent view. Superb staff, from checking in at 3am to being invited to their end of season party on the day we left - each member of staff was a credit to the Hotel.
The food was as one would expect for an All Inclusive hotel, but fresh and extremely well presented.
Pool bar was great - again, as one would expect for an All Inclusive set up, ( help yourself to beer, wine, soft drinks) with the attentive staff ( Olga, Rasheed) making any drink you asked for, if they could, beyond the usual cocktail menu.
Just a few minutes walk away from excellent restaurants, and Pefkos village if you want to move away from the Hotel food.
Again, a few minutes walk to Pefkos beach, which is lovely, with shallow, clear water and sun beds to hire, as well as boat trips - we went with Yiannis Sea Adventures - a fantastic trip along the coast to Lindos and back, via swimming in St Pauls Bay and with the fish in crystal clear water.
All in all, a fabulous stay, great hotel and staff, great weather, in an excellent location.
Loved it.

Lovely quiet hotel with excellent staff that were on hand to help all the time, worth a trip to the beautiful towns nearby they are picturesque!! Beautiful beaches to either lay beside or walk along watching the sun set which we chose to do. Hotel pool was spotless.
We thank Georgia for being very caring and welcoming.

The hotel and stuff are very good. Hotel is very clean. Stuff is very friendly specially one of them Romeo. He’s so friendly and kind. He’s doing great job. You can find him everywhere. Always ready to help and give you some advice. If you have nice people around you you always want to back. I highly recommend this hotel, food and people. Looking forward for next year. Thank you Romeo. You are deserve it all and more.

First of all i want to thank you, guys, for making my holiday the best ever. Everyone in this hotel is very kind, they smile everytime and ask you “how are you?”, they look happy all the time although i’m sure they work a lot. The food was excellent, super fresh and well cooked, i’m pretty sure everyone will find something to eat. The bartender (i think Romeo ), the waiters, the receptionists, the chambermaids, the pool guy (from Moldavia) - everyone was super friendly and made us feel like home. Also there are some incredible funny cats, i have to mention the black one who enjoyed to sleep on stairs. ❤️

We loved the hotel, nearby the city and beach.
Everyday the rooms got cleaned, fresh sheets and towels also everyday.
Nothing but good about the food, everyday different.
And the staff, we've never met such nice people, very kind, very helpfunctie, they always make a small talk with you.
We are coming back, that's for sure and we recomend this hotel to all of our friends and familie.
Thank you for everything, it was wo derfull.

Your waiter is the best! Food is very good, drinks are strong. Rooms are very comfortable and clean. I highly recommend this place. Beach is amazing too. And also is not that far from the city center.

The hotel is very clean and has extremely comfortable beds and pillows, clean towels issued daily and you can get clean beach towels daily for 10 euros deposit. The hotel is in a quite area, close by are a supermarket , 2-3 tavernas and car hire and tourist trips can be booked at the car hire centre. A coffee snack bar and a restaurant. You can catch a bus from the bus stop (10 minute walk) to Rethymon or Heraklion.
If you turn left out of the hotel and walk down the road for 5 minutes you will come to a car hire centre, you can book tourist trips from here. We went on a day trip to Chania and a second trip we took to Elafonisi beach, this took us up into the mountains and to a beautiful beach.
Plenty of food to select from and always a special personal service. Michael and his team of staff in the dinning Hall were so friendly and accommodating. Michael greeted us each night and made sure that everything was ok
During the evenings there is an outside bar and terrace where you can sit and watch the sunset. Bar closes around 11pm and most people are in bed around 11.30pm. Once a week there is a live DJ until 11.00pm.
The sea is very warm and has a sand bank after a few metres , waves can be choppy some days but mostly calm seas.
The bar is by the beach and the bar staff were very friendly and helpful, supplying us with Raki and wine. You can also get fruit, pizza and cake from the bar during the day time. Sun beds are comfortable and free on the beach.
Whilst on holiday , we had a knock on the door one morning and a lady arrived with a birthday cake , bowl of fruit and a bottle of wine for my husband's birthday and a lovely birthday card from Christos (Hotel Manager). This was a lovely unexpected surprise for my husband and myself.

Thankyou!!!! We rarely have time to sit and write a review but on this occasion and having just come back from our 10night honeymoon and having had such an incredible time we feel we owe it to all of the staff at white olive elite! Thank you so much. Each and every member of the staff were exceptional, hard working, kind, friendly and very attentive. (A special thanks to our cleaner also who was a little gem each day) The meals each and every day were delicious with so much variety (so much so we chose to eat at the hotel each night of our stay) having previously accepted that over the ten nights we would likely chose to eat out a few times…….we never did once!! My wife is a former holiday rep, well travelled and yet was still in awe of the beautiful island and the service provided by the hotel and staff! A lovely atmosphere, spotlessly clean and in a lovely location, what more could we wish for! Thakyou again for making our honeymoon a holiday we will never forget, we can’t wait to visit again! Marc and Natalie

We came late September and on arrival was met by Sire on reception who was wonderful throughout our stay helping us with any questions we had and opened the shop on an evening where we bought some nice gifts to bring home. The pool area is lovely and clean and plenty of space for everyone. The drinks on the all inc pool bar were brill and had a lot of choice, yes you have to pay for some premium drinks but there’s plenty to choose from anyway. And the pool bar staff were great fun throughout. We really enjoyed breakfast and ate every day, plenty to choose from, yoghurt, fruit, breads, cheese, cereal, bacon etc. We also enjoyed lunch, lovely fresh salads to choose from as well as hot dishes which varied daily from local foods to pizza, pasta, burgers. The pool snack bar was also really good with different choices daily. We only ate on an evening twice. Once we really enjoyed and the other not so much but this was just down to preference and we like to eat out on an evening and explore the area. The only thing I would say is that for a 4/5 star hotel they don’t have a fresh cooking station like most hotels which would have been a nice touch. The rooms were lovely and clean, bright and fresh. Good sized balcony and a great pool view. We didn’t see any entertainment on an day or an evening but this didn’t really bother us, however if your booking a hotel for this then it doesn’t happen here.

We had a wonderful stay at white olive premium. The hotel is lovely and our room was very clean, with a great view of the sea and sunset at night. All of the staff were very accommodating, particularly Georgia the waitress who was absolutely excellent and made our stay extra special. We can’t thank her enough

the property was lovely and clean as well as the pool. the food was one of, if not the best all inclusive food I’ve had. down to the variety and taste. but what topped it all off was the exceptional welcome and service from the manager and all his staff throughout the whole stay. we would also like to specially thank Georgia, as she was happy to help us with any questions. And how loved and welcomed she made us feel. we will defiantly be returning and recommending white olive premium, to anyone we hear is taking a trip to the island. Thank you so much for a lovely stay !

We loved everything about our stay - the view from our room was incredible looking out across the bay and beautiful blue waters and sky - the food was good and location is great close to the town and the beach! The beach here is sandy which was lovely! The staff couldn’t do enough to help you Georgia in particular was an absolute legend!

Hotel was very clean, modern rooms with fantastic view. The beds are very comfortable. Vasilios the hotel manager, Georgia the restaurant manager, Konstantina the receptionist and the staff at the hotel where so friendly and made the holiday even more memorable. Food was exceptional for all inclusive and always something for everyones diet.

Great location, beautiful hotel ,food basic but near all beautiful restarunts staff so friendly especially Georgia she went out of her way for us .

The location of the hotel was perfect. The staff were really kind and helpful. Especially Konstantina the receptionist and Georgia the restaurant manager. Thank you we had a wonderful time.
