Top 10 Specialty lodgings in Dodecanese, Greece

April 28, 2023 Phylicia Berquist

On the Aegean's eastern, edge the Dodecanese present perfect Greek vistas of whitewashed walls, turquoise blue skies and seas. Island-hopping by ferry, hydrofoil or catamaran is a splendid way to get into the leisurely pace. Once docked, you'll find many of these twelve idyllic islands are easily explored on foot. Don't miss Rhodes' Acropolis, the ruins of ancient Kamiros and Valley of the Butterflies or Kos' Askepion ruins. Tiny Patmos is known for the cave of St. John of the Apocalypse.

Beautiful boutique hotel, with room for improvement

Reviewed By Worldwidelost

After check-in we went to our room above the reception. The looks of the room are good, stylish decorated. However the room itself is probably smaller than an average walk-in closet! No space to put your stuff away, therefore living from the suitcase all the time. The rainshower works perfect. The mattress is a bit dirty, (stains allover), probably as no protector has been used. Furthermore the mattress is way too soft and too small for above average height persons. Food in Esan restaurant is really good and tasty. Also the waiter, Gregory, who unfortunately quit, added to the positive vibe. Prices of restaurant food are fair. Prices of the (pool) bar are too high. Staff working during breakfast was very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately this can’t be said about the receptionist lady working during daytime. Every request seemed to be too much asked and resulted sometimes in useless discussions. Maybe she can be sent to a hospitality course, that might help. Overall location is good, nearby the center and plenty of restaurants around. Unfortunately at this moment a lot of noise from adjacent building activities.

Service unsurpassed, Not your aveage hotel

Reviewed By NonStopTraveller

If only all hotels had the culture of this one, holidays would be a much better experience. Ange and team offer a personal, differentiated service, where the default answer is "no problem, no worries ". Imagine a hotel where the Maitre D' takes the time to call each guest by their name , where the bar is closed when you arrive from airport at 2.45 am and they open the bar for you, where a young child needs hospital treatment and the hotel staff bring the child and parent to the hospital, where the Maitre D' checks you in for your flight and prints your boarding pass, where you check out at 12 noon but keep the room until 7.00 pm as you have an evening flight, where 2 members of staff make sure you get onto the right bus for the airport, where you can come in and they'll change the channel in the bar to watch the French Open if you wish, I saw all this and more last week . Thanks to all at Poseidon for an unforgettable holiday. Hope to be back one day with all the other repeat customers.

Love love love this hotel

Reviewed By Shannon B

I came here with 5 of my friends for a hen party and it was so lovely! The bedrooms were very clean and the air conditioning was great, the staff was so kind and helpful and were quick to respond to any requests we had like book taxis, reservations for restaurants or any extra things we needed for the room. The cocktails and food were delicious and all made fresh and reasonably priced. The pool area was very clean too. The internet worked well in the rooms but not so much by the pool but that was fine. I couldn’t recommend this hotel more, such a hidden gem.

Most beautiful place on Karpathos!

Reviewed By Michiel2211

The Two Goats Villa is one of the most (if not the most) beautiful villa we’ve ever stayed! First of all the owners, Craig and Bruce (and their four-legged friends), are amazing hosts! Bruce makes you the best breakfast you will ever eat on Karpathos and Graig gives you many useful tips and knows many secret spots. They are extremely friendly and will always help you if you have any questions. The villa, it’s view and the location were amazing. Even better than on the pictures. A beautiful pool with sea view, good beds and luxury greek decoration makes the stay really enjoyable. You can see that they put a lot of effort in the details. We will definitely come back and enjoy some days on this unique place.

Helios

I was never this sad to leave hotel staff

Reviewed By Dušan D

I have spent two weeks in Helios with my dad, and while I have been in places much longer and in countries like Thailand which is known as "The land of Smiles", I have never felt so welcome and never felt sad to leave the hotel staff. Maria, Dimitri, Eleanna, Manos and Viktoria have been simply the best hotel staff I have encountered and I will genuinely miss them. But I want to leave a special shoutout to Viktoria, who took time to sit, chat and drink beer with me and gave me many great tips where to go, and even a little Greek Nutella-like present last time we talked to each other :-) Without them my stay in Rhodes would not have been as fun. Absolutely fantastic people that I've even become friends with and if I ever come back I will stay again in Helios only because of the staff! They just raised the bar on how hotel staff should be! Oh yeah and the hotel is great.

Reviewed By danceforever

Great location and helpful staff but this is where the joyride ends. Run-down property, stained, old furniture, no hot water - not even warm - for an entire week! A/C just blows air without cooling. No cups, glasses, cutlery in cupboard. Musty smell with water damaged walls and peeling wallpaper. Instant coffee only at breakfast. No spoons or bowls for milk and cereal. Pool water, lounge cushions dirty. Food OK, nothing spectacular. Had to ask for everything. All of the misery is not the staff's fault but sadly they had to listen to the complaints. Do yourself a favor and stay someplace else. This hotel has no business in receiving any guests.
