Pool & outdoors


With three freshwater outdoor pools plus a children’s pool, you’re never far from the water at Aldemar Olympian Village.

FAQs

Is Aldemar Olympian Village directly on the beach?
Yes. Aldemar Olympian Village is a true beachfront property with direct access from the gardens onto a long sandy stretch of the Ionian coast. You can move easily between the pools and the sea, with beach bars, sunbeds and water sports available along the shoreline.
What’s the difference between All Inclusive and All Inclusive Plus?
All Inclusive includes buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner in the Sympossio restaurant, plus selected snacks and local alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for a minimum of 12 hours per day. Guests can also enjoy limited à la carte meals and discounts on the wine list. All Inclusive Plus expands this with extra buffet venues (Sympossio and Olympia), a wider choice of lunch and dinner options including additional à la carte restaurants (with reservations and course limits), more extensive local and international branded drinks from 10:00–00:00, daily in-room tea and coffee refills, 50% off wines at mealtimes and a 20% discount on most spa treatments (exclusions apply). Exact inclusions may vary by season.
Is Aldemar Olympian Village good for families with young children?
Very much so. The resort offers children’s pools, a well-structured kids’ club for 4–12 year olds, a playground with shaded areas, kids’ buffets and highchairs in restaurants, family rooms and apartments, and daily entertainment with games, mini-discos and shows. It’s a great choice if you want a large resort where everything is on hand for family holidays.
Do the rooms at Aldemar Olympian Village have Wi‑Fi and air conditioning?
Yes. Most room types feature complimentary Wi‑Fi, flat-screen TV, a fridge, kettle and coffee making facilities, plus a safety deposit box and hairdryer as standard. Air conditioning typically operates between 15 June and 15 September, depending on local conditions and occupancy. Daily housekeeping is included.
Are there adults-only areas at Aldemar Olympian Village?
The resort is designed primarily as a family-friendly, all-ages destination, so there is no overall adults-only designation. However, the spa and gym are restricted to guests aged 16 and over, and certain quieter pool or bar areas naturally attract more adults, especially in the evenings. If you’re seeking complete child-free surroundings, a dedicated adults-only hotel elsewhere in Greece may be more suitable.
When is the best time of year to stay at Aldemar Olympian Village?
The resort typically operates from early May to mid- or late October. For the fullest choice of restaurants, pools, entertainment and kids’ facilities, late May to September is ideal. July and August are the warmest and busiest months; May, June, September and early October offer slightly cooler temperatures and a more relaxed vibe while still providing good facility coverage.
Is Aldemar Olympian Village accessible for guests with reduced mobility?
The property is largely low-rise with lifts in the main buildings and ramps in many public areas. The hotel can arrange wheelchair and mobility scooter hire, and staff can assist with luggage and general support. However, room layouts, bathroom access and distances around the large grounds may vary, so we recommend discussing your specific mobility needs with Travelisto before booking to ensure the most suitable room type and location.
