Hotel Stavros
|
|
If they were to vote on Kamares most friendly
couple, Stavros and Sarah Kaloyeros would win.
He's from Sifnos and she's British. Together
they will make your stay one you will never
forget. The Hotel is right on the Kamares
waterfront with balconies that give a view of
the entire bay (photo). Downstairs is a cafe
that serves breakfast in the morning,
sandwiches and Ice-cream all day, and ouzo and
beer anytime. There is an un-official
information center in the hotel lobby where
Stavros and Sarah will tell you when the
ferries arrive and depart, how to make
connections to other islands and even book a
room for when you get there. They also rent
cars and jeeps, the best way to see the
island. The hotel lobby is full of used
paperback books you can borrow or exchange, as
well as new books about the island, postcards
and maps. If you have children the Stavros is
an excellent place to stay since not only does
it overlook the beach and is it right above
the supermarket where you can find a steady
supply of pampers. They
also own the
Kamari Hotel
up the road, and
the beautiful Eleonas Apartments
in Apollonia,
complete with kitchens, and a fantastic view
of the island of Anti-Paros. If you are
interested in renting a house on Sifnos, Sarah
can help you. They are owners of the very
lovely Villa Salamander which overlooks the
bay of Kamares from above Agia Marina.
(When I am in Sifnos I usually stay at the Hotel Stavros.)

Hotel
Morfeas
Even
if Kostas Kambourakis was not the
owner-manager of the
Hotel Morfeas in Kamares there would still be
plenty of reasons to stay here.
Its location is hard to beat.
Cross a small road and follow a
path through a field of reeds and
a grove of trees and you are
right on the beach (about 100m).
The rooms have views of the
mountains, the sea and the
valley of Kamares, are clean and
well kept, simple and attractive.
The hotel is inexpensive and
perfect for people on a budget.
But as everyone on the island
would agree, what makes the hotel
even more special is Kostas
Kambourakis, one of the most
charming and friendly people in
Sifnos. Click Here for more photos, information and booking

Hotel Alexandros
 The
Hotel Alexandros in
Platiyialos is perhaps the finest
hotel on the island in terms of
combining simple luxury and
comfort in a traditional island
setting. Designed with a Cycladic
style with different levels giving
the impression of a small village,
the hotel has a great view of the
sea and the village.
There are also beautiful gardens
surrounding the rooms. All rooms
are equipped with
airconditioning, heating,
mini-bar, telephone, music and a
veranda with a view of the sea, or
of the swimming pool and the
surrounding scenery.

Elies Resort
 I remember when Vathi did not even have a road and we had to take a small boat there and back. Then they built the road and everyone said that this is the end of the charm of Vathi. You can imagine what they said when they found out that Vernicos was building a state-of-the-art resort hotel with the largest
swimming pool in the Cyclades there. Well
despite our horror that sacred Vathi was being defiled by a monster resort I have to admit they have done a pretty good job. The hotel blends in with the surrounding village since the buildings are detached so you feel like you have your own little luxurious village house. It compares favorably with the best resort hotels in Greece but none of them are in as special a setting as the Elies Resort. If you want a quality holiday in a full
service luxury hotel on the type of island that you would not expect to find a luxury hotel, at least one on this scale, then stay at the Elies Resort. Click here for more photos, information and booking
