Grecotel Kos Imperial

The Resort & Setting

Grecotel Kos Imperial is an independent, RCI-affiliated resort on the island of Kos, offering suites and villas that mix contemporary comfort with Greek design touches — think whitewashed walls, wood accents and generous terraces. Layouts suit families and couples who want room to spread out for a longer stay, rather than a cramped studio. The grounds are landscaped to make the most of the Dodecanese coastline, giving guests an easy choice each day between the pool, the beach, water sports or a spa treatment, with dining built around Mediterranean staples — fresh fish and locally sourced produce.

The Area & Things to Do

Kos rewards owners who like to split their days between sand and sightseeing. Kos Town, with its medieval castle and harbour, is about 8km away and worth an afternoon for the old town lanes and waterfront tavernas. History fans can head to the Asklepieion ruins, roughly 4km out, one of the most significant ancient healing sanctuaries in Greece. Tigaki Beach, around 12km away, is a solid choice for windsurfing and other water sports. Ferries from Kos connect to neighbouring Dodecanese islands for day trips, and inland villages surrounded by olive groves offer a quieter, more local side of the island — good for an evening out away from the resort strip.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Grecotel Kos Imperial and are considering selling it on, listing it for resale or rental on BidMyTimeshare.com works on a straightforward owner-to-owner basis: you set your own asking price, buyers and renters contact you directly through the platform, and there's no commission on the sale — you simply pay a one-time listing fee to get your week in front of buyers.

Because this is an independent resort rather than a large branded chain with published transfer terms, resale here is typically processed through the resort's own owners' association or management office rather than a central corporate transfer desk. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm directly with the resort: the transfer fee for registering the week in a new owner's name, whether the resort or association holds a right of first refusal on resales, and the current annual maintenance fee. These details vary by resort and aren't published figures we can quote here, so get them in writing before closing a deal.

A resale buyer receives usage rights to the week and unit type specified in the contract, plus — since the resort carries an RCI affiliation — eligibility to deposit that week into RCI for exchange, subject to RCI's own membership and exchange fees. Loyalty status, resort-specific perks, or any prior owner arrangements that sat outside the official contract don't automatically transfer — only what's documented in the deed or usage agreement passes to the new owner.

Renters, meanwhile, typically want straightforward answers to a few questions: which week or season is on offer, unit size and view, and whether water sports or spa access is included or paid locally. Being specific about these in your listing helps a renter decide quickly.

Practical Notes

Kos has an international airport with seasonal links to the UK and other parts of Europe, which keeps travel times reasonable for a week-long stay. Peak interest in exchanging into or renting a week here tends to track the warm months, so owners planning to rent out a week should list with enough lead time before the season they're targeting.
