Naturally he sends the messenger of the gods: Hermes.
Hermes.
Hermes delivered a message from Zeus to Calypso, instructing her to release Odysseus from her island and let him continue his journey back home to Ithaca. Zeus ordered this in response to pleas from Athena and the other gods.
To send odysseus home
Zeus is not directly related to Calypso. Calypso is a nymph in Greek mythology who is known for holding Odysseus captive on her island in Homer's "Odyssey." Zeus is the king of the gods and does not have a familial relationship with Calypso.
In the story The Odyssey, Zeus orders Calypso release Odysseus from Calypso's island. Zeus was convinced by the goddess, Athena, to help Odysseus.

because the goddess Athena calls a council of the gods at Olympus and convinces Zeus to let Odysseus return. The gods then send Hermes as messenger to bring the news of Zeus's will to Calypso who reluctanly agrees to let Odysseus go.
Zeus sends Hermes to Calypso to tell her to release Odysseus.
Hermes flies in and tells her. Calypso becomes furious at their request and calls the gods jealous that she was sleeping with a mortal man when they slept with mortal women all the time. She still helps Odysseus leave, however. Athena was the one who wanted Odysseus off the island, not Zeus. Zeus simply complied with her wishes.
The god holding Odysseus on the island is Zeus. Zeus got angry at Odysseus and his men for eating the CATTLE of the sun god, Helios. Odysseus didn't eat the cattle, though. He survived, but his men (or crew) didn't. They died. They Odysseus floated to Calypso's island, Ogygia. Calypso loved Odysseus. They got a little "busy", but Odysseus still loved Penelope. Athena begged Zeus to make Calypso release Odysseus, since Calypso was trapping Odysseus on Ogygia. Zeus told Hermes (god messenger) to tell Calypso to let Odysseus go. She got the message, and agreed to release Odysseus. Odysseus built a raft, but while traveling, Poseidon destroyed it, since Odysseus blinded his son, the Cyclops, Polyphemus.
