Arkasa Bay Hotel

Erittäin siisti ja ensiluokkanen hotelli. Hyvä sijainti, lähellä Arkasan keskustaa. Uima-allas alue oli hyvin hoidettu. Todella mukava ja ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Our apartment was huge, with a fully equipped kitchen and every comfort. The air conditioning splits were new and very silent in both rooms.
Mattresses were perfect, with a topper on our double bed and good quality beds for the kids too.
Our rooms were sea front and we enjoyed a pleasant view on the ancient acropolis and the blue Aegean Sea.
Mrs Fotini, the owner, was incredibly kind to us and available to help for every necessity.
We didn’t spend much time at the swimming pool, but it was perfectly maintained and the owners were always at the pool bar, ready to serve you with great cocktails and snacks.
The hotel was clean and very quiet, with most of the guests from Northern Europe.

We had such a good stay at this hotel. We felt welcome from the first moment on, the cleaning of the room was immaculate and the location is superb. I also loved how quiet it was and how well we slept - the bed is really good, which is very important for me.

This family run, relatively small complex is a little jewel. It is located close to the sea and the ancient acropolis of Arkasa. It has been built with a lot of taste so that the swimming pool area is protected from the strong north-western winds. On the other hand, the wind from the sea in the apartments is so pleasant: in 3 and a half weeks, we used air conditioning only twice. Wind from the sea = cool + excellent sleeping+ no mosquitos. The living room and the bedroom in the two apartments we and our daughter got were extremely spacious which is a big plus. There are also large common rooms downstairs. The complex is not new, but maintenance has been excellent. We had two problems, one in each apartment, and they were immediately fixed. The cleaning is simply superb. Fotini and Iannis, who are running this hotel, are nice, ironic, warm people working hard long hours. We enjoyed many times talking to them. The patio area next to the pool is very nice: An ideal place to have a Spritz in the evening, an ouzaki at night, but also breakfast and dinner. The pool is never crowded and our grandchildren immensely enjoyed. This place also attracts interesting people both from Greece and from other countries: We enjoyed meeting several of them. From the hotel, you can walk down to the beach in 10 minutes going by some ancient paleocristian churches with mosaics. There is a nice, inexpensive taverna at the beach (on the left looking at the sea). Their pork gyros plate is excellent. Arkasa is, in summer, a lively authentic Greek village. You can drive from there in half an hour or less to Lefkos or Diakoftis, Amopi, Apela (with stunning, ancient church in the rock) and other beautiful beaches on the eastern coast. Menetes is also close and worthy visiting with authentic Greek life. At least one trip to the north is indispensable: Olymbos, Diafani, etc.

Veldig fin beliggenhet. Super hyggelig personale som hadde mye gode tips til ting man burde gjøre.

La cortesia e la pulizia

Fotini et Giannis sont des personnes merveilleuses. Leur accueil a largement dépassé nos attentes. Leur hôtel est simplement magnifique et idéalement situé à Arkasa. La propreté est exemplaire et leur disponibilité continue. La piscine est belle et parfaitement entretenue .... Nous y avons passé une semaine géniale. Et au delà du confort nous avons partagé de nombreux moments avec eux .... ce qui compte beaucoup pour nous au travers de nos voyages. Merci du fond du cœur.

Super freundliches Personal, saubere Anlage; perfektes Frühstück- es wird nach Wunsch Joghurt, Omelette, Eierspeise, Pancakes usw zubereitet zum fairen Preis. Den ganzen Tag kann man Cocktails oder Snacks bestellen. Guter Ausgangspunkt um die ganze Insel zu besichtigen. Fußläufig in ca 10 Minuten Arkassa erreichbar.

Location, friendly staff, respectful, amazing sea view

The place the people

Excellent value for money. The hotel is very nice, with spacious rooms and spotless clean. The location is also great, we walked to the Agios Nikolaos beach, and to Arkassa's main square in the evening. The staff/owner was very helpful and provided us with a lot of tips of places to visit. We are definitely coming back here next time we are in Karpathos.
