Pros:

I can't say enough good things about the hotel and the hosts Lambros, Nikki and Katerina! The hotel is steps away from the beach and the property is beautiful! We were in a room with a balcony with bougainvillea and a view of Chora... surreal! The hosts are quick to respond and very welcoming, the cleaning lady was also lovely and it was wonderful to have a clean room after a long day out. I highly recommend the place to anyone looking for a place in Ios!

Pros:

We stayed at Mare Monte for 10 days, and unfortunately, our experience was far from pleasant. There was no hot water so we all had cold showers, another issue occurred when fake tan ended up on the bed sheets. Although most of the stains came out after washing, we were still fined £120. When we questioned the charge and refused to pay it immediately, the receptionist threatened to call the police Throughout our stay, the cleaner failed to provide fresh towels and didn’t change the sheets for most of our time there. Basic housekeeping standards were not met. Overall, this place seems more focused on squeezing money out of guests than providing a comfortable or welcoming stay. I would not recommend Mare Monte to anyone — it felt like a money-making scheme targeting at young people. As we were talking to older residents that lived there and they also said they got stains on sheets and didn’t get fined.

Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Toilet leaked for my entire stay and the bathroom was always flooded.
I gave ample notice that I had to leave a day early due to the ferry schedule but was charged in full and refused a refund.

Pros:

Hotel in una posizione ottima vicino al porto e a pochi minuti in macchina dal centro. Dispone di una spiaggia proprio davanti (comoda e con tutti i servizi) e di un mini market affianco . Camere molto accoglienti, belle e pulite. I proprietari molto gentili e disponibili! Consigliato assolutamente!

Semplice ma efficace
Pros:

Ottima la posizione fronte spiaggia, a 3 minuti a piedi dal porto e dalla fermata del bus per Chora e le principali spiagge. Grande cordialità e disponibilità dello staff che ci ha accontentati in ogni richiesta.
Piccolo problema con la stanza ma immediatamente risolto cambiandocela con una più bella.

Cons:

Nulla in particolare. Solo i bagni da rimodernare.

Pros:

Bella la struttura e la camera. Presenza anche di una piscina. Mare davanti all’hotel

Cons:

La camera perfetta per due persone , peccato che noi eravamo in tre , quindi un po’ strettina anche per la sistemazione dei bagagli
