Great hotel! Nice location, only 5 min from the beach and 5-10 min by bus from Chora. The hotel offers amazing views of mylopotas beach and surrounding areas.

Lovely property but a lot of stairs. No elevator and no porters so it can be a tough gig carrying heavy luggage up 70 stairs. There are No ice machines . Beautiful view from superior room and walkable to the beach which was far better and less chaotic than those in Mykonos. Over foil value for the price.

I found the hotel was far out, hence the name… it’s like a 30 minute walk to the city and 20 to the beach.. but it’s on a hill so you’re walking up and down hills. I ended up renting a quad for my stay which worked well and made it a lot easier to get around Nice room with a beautiful view, check in was easy and cleaners cleaned my room daily. Nice Greek salad I ordered from the restaurant it was delicious. The pool view is amazing, overlooking the beach. Loved the shuttle service for 5 euros extra each way to and from the port, super convenient and easy. A few things made my stay less enjoyable, the air conditioner didn’t, I left my key in the power slot for 3 hours while I went out with the air conditioner on, when I got back my room was so hot that it was cooler outside of my room, I called reception he came to fix it but I woke up plenty of times in sweat because it was so hot. The pool was pretty cold, more cold then the beach water. The barman at the pool bar has very poor customer service and charges different prices that are on the menu, I asked for a house wine a 5 euro and he charged me 7 because he didn’t have anymore house and it’s a different bottle, I wouldn’t have had a problem if he would’ve told me before but he didn’t and he doesn’t let you drink alcohol other then that what’s purchased at the bar that was the only major unpleasant experience I had here. The reception workers are very nice but seemed lost at times. all in all, I probably wouldn’t stay here

Great hotel & location!
Great location in Ios with a ferry transfer to get you there! Pool was nice, and about a 5 minute walk to the beach! Room itself was great, with an amazing balcony and view of the ocean. Would definitely come back to this hotel! Breakfast was great too, and the lady serving breakfast was incredible and so nice!

We didn't spend much time at the property, rather we hired a car and explored the island. Rooms were okay and clean. A lot of younger guests. We didn't have a problem with the staff here but, found out of everywhere we stayed in Greece, they were the least helpful in a sense where we could tell they didn't care for the younger crowd this island attracts and so weren't overtly friendly.

I loved the pool and pool bar. As well as the hotel overall from the outside was beautiful. Where it lacked was the room, especially the shower. Think Moscow 1999 chic. And the queen bed was two singles pushed together, which makes things interesting. Location was perfection and transfers were amazing.

Amazing location, beautiful view and hotel. Service could of been a bit better. We were told there would be shuttles to the beach and back but once we finally came around to ask for one they told us to walk (which isn’t far but still). We also had an incident during our stay and they didn’t really compensate for it.

The beds were terrible. If you enjoy sleeping on plywood then this is the place for you. Showers are tiny. Bashing elbows while washing hair or shaving , water gets all over the floor since there is no door only a curtain. Don’t let the name fool you, there is no spa.

too many stars given
Upon our arrival staff was very friendly. When we saw our room we freaked out. Plumbing issues, shower head was broken, and loud noise came out of the pipes when we took our shower. Mold everywhere. We complained and little was done. Upon a second complaint staff were willing to change our room but the other ones were not any better. Once they saw our level of dissatisfaction the manager did order new plumbing accessories and a major clean up. We appreciated their efforts and it was much better. Beds were stiff as many complained on Trip Advisory but that was the least of my worries. Room view was amazing. The bar could stay opened a little later. Barman was very nice. This hotel is more for young students. Couples should shell out more bucks and be more secluded in another area of the resort if they are looking for more intimacy. Breakfast was nothing to brag about and quality was not up to par with other resorts. I don't think I can recommend this place as a 4 star.

Good location, friendly staff
We had a nice stay at this hotel- they picked us up from the port and had a shuttle service to the beach front (they have another property on the beach that is a hostel, but you can use the facilities there). This hotel is nice with a good breakfast, but the hostel on the beach is definitely a party place with 18-22 year olds (think spring break). As this was a family trip, it was maybe a little more party than we wanted, but we had a good time. There are plenty of other chairs/umbrellas along the beach that you could pay for that seemed quieter. We had a car for 1 day to drive around and sightsee. Definitely would recommend going to Pathos for the sunset if you go to Ios.

Far out hotel and spa was excellent accommodation. The room was very clean and beautiful views. It's a short walk to far out beach club and there's a bus stop right out the front of the hotel if you'd prefer. Would definitely recommend.

Solid 3 star (maybe even 4 star)
We stayed here for 3 nights while travelling around the greek islands and absolutely loved it. The hotel is in great condition (looks recently refurbished) and has what must be the best view in Ios. The staff are super friendly and helpful and bent over backwards to help us when we were running late to catch a ferry (thanks guys!) If I come back to Ios this will be my go-to hotel, I highly recommend it (and I am used to staying in 4 or 5 star hotels).

Amazing Villa!!
We had an absolutely phenomenal three night stay at this property. The villa with Infiniti pool overlooking Myloplatas Beach can't be outdone. We had the biggest smiles on our face each morning waking up to that view. I can't say enough good things about the place! We'll be back next summer 110%!!

Everything about this hotel is great, except for our room. The room wasn't cleaned properly with broken glass bottles still on our floor, the shower head broken and no longer attached to the wall. I've never slept in a bed so hard, it left my partner and I feeling bruised and sore.

The beds in this hotel were very uncomfortable. If you like sleeping on the floor then you will like the beds. It's also not right next to the far out beach resort so you will have to wait for the free transfers down to the beach as the walk is about a 20 minute walk from the resort. The bar tender at this hotel is amazing though, he was very accomodating and knew his stuff. Very friendly and polite.

Close to beach
Photos are deceiving! The room is very small with decent size two seat balcony. My shower had black mildew all around the perimeter of the base. The bathroom is so small, you can barely shower if you're tall or bigger person! The beds are rock hard stiff! Other than that, it is very close to beach, which the beach does provide free tiki umbrella & reclining beach chairs! The food across the street is ok & drink prices are ok. PS, he hotel does offer free shuttle service to and from port. Also, clubs and bars only 10 minutes away walking

Fin utsikt!
Rummet var väldigt fint, och Blev tvättad varje dag. Bartendern vid poolen var fantastisk. Servicen var bra. Det enda som inte var bra var frokosten, det var den tråkigaste hotell frokosten jag har ätit. Väldigt continental, som fattade en del saker som är basic bland annat grönsaker, löskokt ägg, fler ost alternativer än bara en. Jag vill rekomendera Detta hotellet Till unga fest glada folk då vi Hörde de ropa och smälla i dörrar på nätterna och tidigt på morgonen något som vi uppskattade väldigt lite.
