The hotel is amazing, a gem in Karpathos island. It is comfortably located in a hill overlooking Ammopi bay. The spacious and elegantly decorated rooms as well as the kindness of the owners provided me with an amazing and relaxing stay. When I go to Karpathos again, Althea Hotel will be my first choice for accomodation.

This place was excellent. I had a big room with a comfy bed, air conditioning, kitchenette and large balcony. Staff were wonderful - answered all my questions and very friendly. The pool is amazing with plenty of loungers and umbrellas. I did not have breakfast included but I did pay for it one morning and the selection was great. Very typical Greek breakfast assortment. (Cost 9 €) The property is a good 20 minute walk to town - which I didn’t mind, but something to be aware of especially on a hot day.

I had the pleasure of staying at Olympos Archipelagos recently and I must say it was an experience that exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with friendly and helpful staff who ensured my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The accommodation was beautifully appointed and the apartments are spacious and well-furnished. The amenities were top-notch, with a range of options at Olympos for dining and relaxation. I highly recommend this hotel for the amazing, breathtaking views and I look forward to staying there again in the future!

Good location, at walking distance to beach, harbor, restaurants, cafés and supermarket. Large balcony with village and sea view. Great breakfast (included in price). Manolis and Maria are very kind, it is almost like visiting friends. They are very open and easy to talk with and want you to have a good time, enjoy your stay as much as possible with recommendations for hikes, excursions etc. Do the boat trip to Saria or to beaches. Diafani is a lovely place with a very relaxed and authentic Greek atmosphere, friendly people, good restaurants and cafes. It is a perfect location for exploring the north side of Karpathos, visit Olympos, Avlona valley and Saria (by boat) and most of all for the beautiful hikes which you can start from the hotel.

We stayed for three nights at the brand-new Sunrise Apartments in Karpathos and had a wonderful experience. We were among the very first guests, and everything felt fresh and modern, with stylish furniture and excellent facilities. The hostess, Anna, was exceptionally welcoming and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The location is ideal — peaceful yet conveniently close to everything, and it offers beautiful views. Free parking is also available, making it even more convenient for those with a car. Highly recommended for anyone seeking comfort, tranquility, and warm hospitality in Karpathos.

    This was one of the most fantastic vacations of my life! The villa is perfectly located on the west side of the island. With sprawling views of the sea and sunset before you and of the craggy mountainside behind. Far from other buildings and villages it offers privacy and only the sounds of crashing waves and the wind. Yet only a few minutes by car to scenic beaches and adorable tavernas. The beaches we enjoyed most were located a few kilometers north. Clean, uncrowded, with none of the trappings of mass tourism. Every local we came in contact with was charming, polite, talkative, eager to share a story and give tips about their beautiful island. The food was rustic and homegrown, sometimes in the taverna owner's own field. Some dishes we had were the best we ever tasted. Karpathos is one of those magical places seemingly untouched by the hustle of modern society, there is an innocence and warmth seldom encountered. In my opinion the most beautiful island in the Aegean, I could rave about it at length. There are no words to fully express how wonderful this stay was. One week was not enough and we fully intend to come back and stay at Arpathea. Special thanks to the lovely Evdoxia who managed the reception, she went far and beyond to make our stay pleasant!

    It doesn´t happen often that I award an accomodation facility with the highest rating, but in this case I can do it with the best conscience. The studios are simply equiped, but cosy, well mantained and clean, obviously loyal to the local folk style. The balconies provide a nice view over an olive orchard with a bay in the background. The bay, hosting a beach, can be reached on foot within two minutes, other beaches can be found in the center of Lefkos, also within walking distance. Wi-fi works quite well, but sometimes gets slower. The overall positiv impression is further amplified by the landlord and his wife, and older greek married couple, providing a glimpse of the gentle hellenic spirit and hospitality. I hope to get an opportunity to come again.

    I have set the exptectations for a 2 star hotel with that range of price, but the structure surpassed by a lot my expectation. The position of the hotel is PERFECT, in the center of the biggest city, and with beaches reachable easy on foot. The cleaning was good, the buffet breakfast, for a 2 star hotel, was Excellent, the room big enough with AC in the room. And the Stuff was BRILLIANT to say the least, very helpful and supportive for any kind of request. Oh, and good wi fi everywhere in the structure from the room to the hall. Free wifi by the way.

    The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and spacious enough for real cooking. The terrace offers views of both the mountains and the sea, while the surrounding gardens are filled with beautiful, fragrant flowers and fruit trees. Potali Bay – just a two-minute walk away – is charming and peaceful, though not ideal for swimming, as the shifting tide easily stirs pebbles underfoot. However, there are plenty of sandy beaches nearby to choose from – some perfect for children, others for nature lovers – all within a few minutes’ drive.

    Arkasa is a lovely, quiet (at least in June) town next to one of the nicest beaches in Greece and beyond, Saint Nicholas Beach. It is a short drive from the airport and from other lovely beaches, including Lefkos and Finiki, where you can also find excellent fish and seafood restaurants. Arkasa has several nice tavernas, cafes and pastry shops to spend time in, several mini markets, and plenty of parking for visitors. You can also enjoy a beautiful sunset from here. It is about a 20-30 minute drive from the main town, Pigadia, and a shorter drive to villages like Menetes, Pyles and Othos.

    I liked the beach. The sand is soft and the sea calm and shallow. There are few places to eat but enough for us. We had dinner usually at Calypso restaurant. The food was good ant the staff friendly. There is also a cocktail bar named Pebbles which is excellent. they offer very nice special cocktails. they have live music shows every Friday evening. the cocktails are a little expensive but the wine and beer prices ar mostly reasonable. In general Amoopi is a very quiet place. far from the crows and perfect for a relaxed vacation.

    Olympos is a traditional village in the northern part of Kaprathos, about 50 klms from the airport/harbour and it takes about 1:30-1:50 mins to drive there. The view from Olympos is magnificent, especially in the west part, where you can enjoy the sunset. It's very quiet and even in the hottest summer days, it's not hot!

    Lack of taxis, buses, decent beaches were downsides. No ATM, one small shop and unreliable ferry service were others. 2 days if you wanted to visit Olympos would be adequate, 3 at best. The only ATM was a Euronet one in Olympos with the associated rip off charges for withdrawing cash. It's badged as a normal bank machine with just small Euronet badges. Beware.

There are also many beautiful apartments and villas to stay at. Downsides: expensive sun beds, sometimes it can get busy, the road from Pigadia is 20 mins but quite difficult for beginner drivers, and there's only one pricey mini market.

    We liked it as it was a quieter island than some of the others and we like to discover new places. We ate at Poseidon blue for dinner and breakfast both of which were great . You do need a car or bike unless you get taxis around though. Very windy though on our stay only one day of the 4 was the wind low.

    Amoopi is a very seaside small town on a slope, about 20 minutes drive from the main port town of Karpathos Island, Pigadia. Amoopi has two of the most beautiful calm protected and organized beaches of Karpathos, great tavernas, and a variety of non package deal accommodation options. Best to have a rental car when staying there to easily access the beaches, tavernas, Karpathos port (for boat or ferry trips) and for day trips to other locations on the Island. Our absolute favorite place to eat was Dimitrios Fisherman Taverna.
