The Hotel is in a lovely peaceful, tranquil & picturesque setting. Lovely gardens & the pool is one of the best I have seen. It is big enough to do length swimming & warm. The price at pool bar of drinks & snacks were cheap. The accommodation had Air Con, fridge, shower(which had warm water too), double bed, dressing table, hairdryer, table & a big wardrobe. The sliding doors to balcony had mozzie door to prevent them coming in. We had a balcony which had lovely views of the sunset in evening. The breakfast on morning was basic. Had lovely fresh melon, cereals, sandwiches, hot & cold drinks, boiled eggs & cake. The hotel is more of a German & English culture for those seeking to relax in peaceful surroundings. The location of hotel wasn't far at all for restaurants on the main street & the lovely long stretched beaches. We hired a bicycle for a week & enjoyed cycling to Kos Town, Salt Lake & the beaches. Some of hire bikes have a basket so you can place your beach things & water in it. Tingaki is a lovely peaceful resort for those seeking relaxation & romantic getaways. Public transport to Kos Town is 1.80 euros each way. Went on 2 excursions - Zia Mountain to watch sunset (fabulous, a must for fabulous views & sunsets). Went to Turkey Bodrum on Hydrofoil on market day (Tues) enjoyed a walk round shops & cafes etc. We are planning to return. More to discover of this wonderful Island. Could have stayed longer.

The hotel is located in a very peaceful, tranquil & relaxing surroundings & not far from the main restaurants & beaches. The gardens are all maintained well & pretty colorful flowers in bloom on the trees make this location an ideal spot for those seeking tranquility. The pool was wonderfully big & warm. Prices at the snack bar were quite reasonable & good value for money. Breakfast on morning is as described: cereals, bread with variety of choices of jams. There were sliced cheese & ham, sliced tomato, cakes, boiled eggs, choice of cold diluted juices & hot drinks of tea/coffee or peppermint tea/hot chocolate, fresh fruit & yogurt with honey. It was a buffet so you can help yourself. The accommodation was lovely especially when you got air conditioning in the hot season which was essential. A large wardrobe to accommodate all your clothes & plenty of coat hangers. Had free hairdryers & a dressing table which was useful. The showers were nice & hot. Staff at the hotel were helpful & friendly. They do special requests in advance, we had one for our anniversary. It was wonderfully thought out & presented well. This hotel is the best we have ever stayed in because of the location, gardens, pool, views & natural beauty. It is nice & peaceful. Kos is lovely & flat. We hired bicycles to explore the surrounding areas at a nice price. We hired bikes from a company which the hotel staff recommend & had a good deal. We paid 20 euros each for 7days. We cycled to Kos Town & to the beaches. Take some cycling shorts if you are planning a long ride to Kos Town (12km) to prevent saddle soreness. We went to Zia mountain to see the sunset (a must if you want a romantic scene to watch sunset & see stunning views of Tigaki & Kos). Went on an excursion to Turkey Bodrum by the hydrofoil (don't forget passports for this trip). We recommend taking the Hydrofoil takes only 20mins. The other boats take longer, over an hour to get there. Tigaki is a lovely spot for romantic days/evenings watching the sunsets, relaxation by the pool/beaches within quiet surroundings. Nightlife is not too quiet & not too noisy. There are not many Brits who stay at the Tigaki Star. This can actually be a bonus if you want peace & quiet. Most people who stay there seem to be Germans & they are rather quiet & keep themselves to themselves, not very chatty but like I say, if you want peace & quiet then this is perfect. Overall this was an excellent holiday & I would recommend the hotel and the resort which is pretty much unspoilt.
