We stayed here in June. The large family suite with bunk beds was very comfortable and the staff was very diligent about replacing towels which was really appreciated. The room was supposed to be seafront but in reality we were looking at trees blocking the view. The beach is great IF not windy. We had a few days where the wind meant no swimming at the beach was allowed. No big deal but something to be aware of. Mezze and Mouries restaurant had great food. The breakfast options are also great....

10/10 Excellent

Location was perfect, close to city center and historical sites. City is busy and little crazy to drive in but is fun if you are up for the adventure. The hotel was impeccable and since the moment we got there the staff was helpful. Digital keys are always hassle free. Room had everything we needed and more. Hotel has only a couple spots for parking if you have a car but only a block away there is a parking garage which had really great service. Also around the corner there is a great...

Don’t even bother reading my review. Just click book. Staying here was unbelievable. I almost didn’t believe my eyes, that I had the right place. It’s incredible: brand new, great square footage, ridiculous amenities, and the reception man was very very kind to us. I wish I could live here. When I saw the room and the building, I deeply deeply regretted that I was only here for two days. Out of the 5+ places I’ve stayed in Greece, this is BY FAR the best, and all those places got great reviews...

Agios Nikolaos

10/10 Excellent

Perfect place to stay in Agios! Right on the water walkable to the lake and tons of restaurants but a little more on the outskirts of the chaos. The staff are what make this place- they are truly all amazing and go above and beyond. We had a spa suite with a hot tub and just a regular ocean view room- nice room but I think you actually get a better view in the regular rooms. The spa bath is more like a one person jacuzzi because it’s very slippery and when we had two people the water started to...

We stayed at Istron Collection Villas in September 2026, and our experience was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Our villa was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and having our own private pool made the stay even more special. The staff truly made our visit memorable. Everyone at the hotel and throughout the property was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The customer service was outstanding! One of the sweetest surprises was when the staff overheard that we were celebrating a...
