Kritikakis Village Hotel

On Ios’s Yialos waterfront, a short stroll from sand and ferry connections. Kritikakis Village Hotel is a 3-minute walk from Yialos Beach and about 5 minutes on foot to Ios Ferry Port. Mylopotas Beach sits roughly 3.3 km (2 miles) away for bigger-sand days.

This compact seaside hotel has 45 air-conditioned rooms with private balconies or terraces that catch the sea breeze. Rooms include refrigerators, flat-screen satellite TVs, private bathrooms with toiletries and hairdryers, and in-room massage service by request. Housekeeping runs daily, keeping the vibe neat and relaxed.

Two sea-view pools set the tone — a larger main pool with lounge energy and a quieter second pool for peaceful dips. A pool bar serves chilled drinks, light cocktails and snacks as sunset paints the waters. Onsite body treatments add a spa touch, and staff offer tour and ticket assistance for island adventures.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Practical services include dry cleaning, laundry facilities, luggage storage and free self parking.

Grab quick bites at the snack bar/deli or unwind at one of two bars and the pool bar. A Mediterranean-inspired buffet breakfast featuring local delicacies is served with sea views (buffet hours 8–11 AM; fee applies).
