Ormos Ios, Ios Chora, 84001, Greece –

The staff at Kritikakis are so sincere and caring, they really went the extra mile to ensure their guests are having the best possible experience from helping us with getting around town to bringing little gifts to our room to make us comfortable during stormy weather. I can’t possibly rate this hotel highly enough.

Lisa, Australia

The room was very clean, with a fridge and even a little kitchen. Facilities were very good with a super swimming pool, a pool bar and the view on the sea. Not far from Choral village and very close to the port (for ferries) which was very useful. Staff very nice and welcoming and accommodating when I had to change plans. I would definitely stay there again (longer next time!).

Nathalie, France

Hotel has a very nice resort vibe. Location is right near the port so easy to get to from ferry. Walk into town is 10-15 minutes but is uphill - but it’s quite nice to be away from the party side of Ios and there are very cheap buses to get into town! Staff were also really helpful.

Genevieve, Australia

This has been my favourite hotel on all of the islands. Staff were lovely, check in was easy. Room was so large, clean and bright. Location was perfect - you are right in the middle of everything. The port (supermarket, restaurants) is a 4 minute walk, the beach (also with resturants & loungers etc) is a 3 minute walk and Chora town (nightlife & restaurants) is a 10 minute walk. Bus stop is also right outside for if you wanna visit any other beaches. View from our room was beautiful. Pool area was nice, lots of shade if needed. Pool bar staff was also great. No complaints at all

This hotel is in the most perfect location. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. The room was very clean. Please note that you cannot drink the water and have to get a water bottle. The hotel though provides one for you. Their shampoo and conditioner and shower gel is also amazing and smells great.

Ani, United States of America

Very close to the port-within walking distance. Clean rooms with kitchenette & nice pool/lounge area. Overall great experience. Breakfast is an extra 7eu but lots of variety. Close to the beach!

Agnieszka, Canada

Beautiful hotel and pool. It's very close to the bar/clubs (about a 5 minute walk uphill). If you are going to party in Ios, this is the best hotel for you! Also the cocktails from the pool bar are really nice :)

Melanie, United Kingdom

We had an amazing stay here! The staff is so friendly and helpful, every single question or request was met with a smile. They were able to help us book tours and recommended great places to eat. The rooms are really nice, breakfast is lovely, there are two great pools, and the location is perfect, the bus stop is literally right in front. I would stay here again and recommend to everyone.

Marina, United States of America

The bartenders were funny and friendly. Reception staff very helpful. Great location near Yialos beach and the steps to chora.

Kritikakis Village

If you are a family or a couple that wish to balance your holidays between fun and relaxation, our hotel strikes that perfect balance between exuberance and serenity. Only a five minute walk from the port of Ios, the bay of Yalos is ideal if you wish to have easy access to Ios village but at the same time you would rather be safeguarded from noise and overcrowding when at ‘home’.

Kritikakis Village is run by people who love and have live on the island of Ios and we will be happy to advise you where to go and which activities are most suitable for you. We enjoy travelling and therefore we know what it feels like to be on holidays that is why we strive to offer you our best and to improve our services and facilities every year. We enjoy meeting new people and we will welcome you with a smile!

With the beaches of Yalos bay, just a breath away; restaurants, bars and all essential amenities found almost at arm's reach at the neighbouring port of Ios and easy access to Ios village, Kritikakis Village holds a magnificent strategic location. The hotel will be an exceptional starting point for you to discover all the gems of Ios island while its reclusive ambience will wait for you to retreat to an atmosphere of guaranteed relaxation.

Loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer! It was off season so very quiet (which was part of the appeal for us) but perfect weather (mid 20s). Very comfortable, spacious and clean room for our family of 4. Delicious breakfast and most of the time we had the lovely pool area all to ourselves. Very conveniently located to ferry - it was an easy 5 minute walk even with lots of luggage. Staff were lovely and helpful and let us have a late check out and leave our luggage all day.

No criticisms. We had a good couple of nights stay, slightly out of season.
The pool area was lovely. The place is a bit of a labyrinth but in a good way. Location is great because it is on a bus route, not far from the port area or the beach.

The bed was rock hard, and while some people like that, it made the back a bit stiff in the morning. Also, it would have helped if the Pool Bar took cash. Apart from that, no complaints.
The facilities were all excellent, in good condition and worked well. The staff were exceptional: friendly, warm, helpful, hospitable, everything that makes Greece such a great place to visit. I would stay again.
