Varnakas Hotels

"Bedding was torn and dirty mattress protector was showing through, quite disgusting. Staff spoke very basic English, so it was a bit tricky communicating. "

"Was staying in the place in early April 2026. Finding the place was quite complicated, no indication until you reach the closed gate with small laminated A4 paper with mobile number just off the small country side road - and then there is a coded entry (could have been an email with the code and directions before arrival) so we had to call few times to be let in and get direction as host was not onsite and was looking through the remote cameras). Room looked good, as pictured - nice and clean, comfy bed and great shower, kettle and tea bags in the room in absence of onsite breakfast option. However property is not is not fully finished, pool looks half built with no water, no tiles/decking outside, furniture stacked and not usable. No option for spa/massages as per listing in the description. When it will be finalised (hopefully summer 2026?) it might look as pictures, high end deluxe, calm and relaxing retreat but currently looks more like AI render. "

"I booked this hotel from my car, from my cell while at the beach. I kept going back to it but for some reason I kept loooimg at other spots. I’m SO glad a I pulled the trigger. The entire property was amazing. From the moment you walk down into the lobby from the parking area, you are hot with the most amazing view. Mountains. Sailboats. Beautiful clear water in every shade of blue you can imagine. "

"Have just had a lovely stay at this hotel. The staff are fantastic, a particular call outs for Athena on reception, who politely helped us with so many queries and always had a smile. Also Dimitri on the restaurant/bar, was so hardworking and pleasant. The staff are all very friendly and hard working. The food menu was limited, but adequate for a light lunch, the Lefkas lentil salad was amazing. As a general comment some external parts of the hotel might need to be looked at as bits are tired and the pool water could be clearer. It was quiet for our week until the end when a larger party arrived and then there was a struggle to get a sun bed/umbrella. Also the beach isnt that accessible and is small, however there are so many amazing beaches youll be spoilt for choice (beach shoes are a must). Finally if you have mobility issues this might be a challenge as there are lots of steps. The hotel is well located between Nikiana and Nidri, with lots of options to eat, shop and go on sightseeing trips. We hired a car and this was helpful as the bus is intermittent. A lovely, quiet, small hotel with friendly staff for a peaceful holiday. Enjoy"
