Great location - only 5 minute drive to center of town or a 20 minute walk. Lovely pool, though it was cool as we were there mid-October. Beautiful view of sea from large pool area. Communication and check in was easy. Free parking was easy and secure. Good Wifi - which was important as I needed it for work. Maria was very nice and engaging. Staff were all very friendly and kind. The property was beautifully manicured by a fellow that also helped serve breakfast. The Indonesian girl server was also very kind. Beds were good. Shower configuration in our bedroom was a little weird as you had to be careful not to splash edge of bed - suggest they extend the shower wall. The blind between living room and bedroom was also too short. Fabulous and large breakfast with greek yoghurt, honey and fruit, eggs, some days as omelette or fried, one day we had crepes and other pancakes, baked good including bread, sometime mini spanokopitas or croissants plus jam and preserves. Coffee wasn't great, so went out for coffees afterwards, which was fine. Bed linens were good as were towels. They also provided slippers and robes but no beach towels. You can rent beach towels if you wish. We loved this palce nd if we stay in Arkana again, we will definitely stay here ! Thank you MARIA and staff!

Owner Maria was amazing host and person. All her family were providing very nice atmosphere and breakfast service. Car rental via them was the best and the cheapest option. We had a beautiful engagement there.

The breakfast is almost the same everyday. Not a lot pf choices and sometimes it’s slow. I would recommend to go for a buffet with a lot of options. Dinning next to the parking lot is not the ideal. Maybe a wall ?

Beautiful studios with great amenities. The beach nearby is beautiful. They let us come before the check in ! The persons (Indonesians) woww, best kind of person, very attentif, good workers and always smiling.

The room lacked a microwave. That’s it. Everything else was perfect.

Perfect location in a quite area within walking distance from town center. Just 15 minutes from the airport. Our room was spacious had a big balcony and a huge private pool which was cleaned just before we arrived. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful. The manager made sure we were taken care of and helped arrange our excursion at an amazing price with a good private boat.

Just that when we arrived, the 2nd bedroom was slightly unprepared. No mat for the shower, and old shower gel bottles.

Good breakfast, but not brilliant for vegans. Not a great selection of fruit. Fab if you like eggs!

No kettle or iron and ironing board in the room, which was a shame, and the shower wasn't very powerful (sort of expected more for the size of it). The jacuzzi also needed topping up to work properly and we couldn't figure out the temperature control as the display seemed to be broken. All fairly minor things but would have made our stay even better

Huge room with lovely, big, comfortable bed, very friendly staff, a little pool bar serving a few drinks and there were comfy, cushioned beds by the pool. Hotel was easy walking distance to the beach and Arkassa town centre and had lots of free parking on site. We were also given robes and slippers in the room, which was a nice touch.

Seriously nothing.

What is not to like? Maria and her family are one of the most genuinely caring hosts we have ever encountered on the Greek isles. Professional and attentive yet giving you all the privacy you need to feel truly ,at home’. Rooms are impeccably clean and contemporary with all you need. Breakfast homemade and with slight changes every day, which is nice, served on a beautiful terrace by the pool. Pool to be used whenever you like, which is also a nice change to other places with restricted timings. Location with gorgeous views and a good base to explore the quite large island. Allover a very pleasing place with a good vibe and top staff also.

Structure recently and very tastefully decorated, in a great position overlooking the sunset of Arkasa with a stunning always open swimming pool . The rooms are super clean, and cleaned daily, and the super gentle personnel available from early in the morning to 10 at night We loved staying here and enjoyed every single day in Arkasa Palace

The architectural choice of having the shower within the room while kind of sexy is not always practical.

Good location, amazing views even from inside the room, very friendly,helpful and generous staff, very comfortable beds!

The glass toilet door did not close fully (by design), which meant that you could easily hear what was going on in there while you were in the room. This was a bit uncomfortable. This made me put 9/10 and not 10/10.

Everything was great apart from 1 minor thing.

We spend one week in the private Aphrodite villa with private pool. Maria, her Mom and the entire team were incredible. We were completely relaxed right from the beginning. The hotel has an outstanding service, the sea view is incredible. The whole place is so cozy and heart worming. Maria has created a wonderful stylish environment. The villa itself is offering a private atmosphere and we really enjoyed the little pool very much. The room, the terrace and the pool were cleaned every day it is in real proper condition. Being on holiday you can ignore a cracked mirror (will be fixed soon). The room provides a small kitchen, which we just have used in the morning to prepare a cup of coffee. Enjoying a cup of coffee in the early morning on the terrace with the unbelievable Aegean Sea view is just unreal. Maria is an incredible host and always there for her guests. The beautiful St. Nicolas beach is just a ten minutes walk from there. Wonderful Restaurants could be reached in just five minutes. Our favorite one was the Kipos Taverne, a cozy little restaurant with a well dedicate Team and an excellent chef, providing authentic greek cuisine. We have booked the accommodation including breakfast. The breakfast was a daily feast. Variations of eggs (omelette, cooked or fried) have been offered as well as fresh fruits, traditional Greek yogurt with honey and fruits, veggies from the family garden and bread with homemade marmalade. Pancakes where available too. It was just amazing.

A really nice hotel! Lovely hosts and extremely nice stuff. The rooms are completely new and well designed. The location is next to the center of Arkasa, so you can easily walk there. We really enjoyed our stay and our little Noah as well! Highly recommended!

Not really suitable for self catering. Didnt have the basics. No bowls to have a cereal for breakfast??? No where to hang clothes to dry only tiny rope on balcony. A clothes airer outside on balcony would have been very helpful. No dish cloth etc. Having said that our ferry was cancelled a d we had to stay an extra night and it was no problem. Also the room was cleaned every day and fresh linen and towels provided

Stunning view from apartment. fab pool.

The place was really nice, clean and had all that you need for your visit at Karpathos. Maria was also very friendly and helped us with all our request. We are definitely coming back!!!

can’t fault it.

The place was immaculate and wonderfully decorated. Maria and her mother were so inviting and had great food and activity recommendations. Juicy was a gorgeous addition to the staff! The private pool and kitchen facility exceeded our expectations and the breakfast was lovely and so fresh. We already can’t wait to come back. thank you for such an amazing stay!

The breakfast does not change a lot - but the options that are served are tasty.

The apartment was modern, spacious and very clean. We loved the view from the balcony & the beach in walking distance! Arkasa is also a good starting point to explore Karpathos - and in the small city enough restaurants can be found so one does not need to drive away every night! Maria is the best host ever and organized a lot for us! She booked us a great private tour around the island & organized a rental car that waited for us the next day. Her travel & beach recommendations made our stay a thousand times better!
