Paradise Hotel

“Magical place to have your holiday”

This hotel is a gem of a place. We have never had such views. Utterly beautiful. You are a short walk down into Patitiri harbour, 15 mins to a lovely beach. A bus or taxi upto the old town is a must. Great shops and restaurants up there and ..again...the views! There are bus trips to other beaches and boat days out. Diving if that is what you like too. Lots to do or very little as suits you. Bessie the owner is so friendly and always happy to help with what to do and where to go. All the staff at the Paradise hotel are lovely. Its kept spotlessly clean. The pool is a delight and the sunbeds are super comfy with big umbrellas for shade. There are terraces with furniture so you can enjoy a seat looking out to sea. These finish at rocks where a ladder goes into the sea . Swimming there definitely a highlight for me. Breakfast is plentiful, buffet style, continental and the coffee very good. I am a fruit and yogurt person but my husband enjoyed his toast and eggs every morning. Our room was fine for us, amazing view from the balcony, very comfy mattress and pillows, great linen and towels. Again very clean. I know there have been comments about the bathrooms on other reviews but just consider how little time you spend in there! Its definitely not a deal breaker for us...please don't let it put you off staying here. The bar serves a lunch menu which we sampled quite a few times. Lots on offer, well made, tasty and reasonably priced. It's also a wonderful place to have a drink or two of an evening. Bessie and Kosta are often there and enjoy chatting with the guests about the island. So to summarise its a lovely hotel, full of greek charm, with fabulous staff, owners who want you to have a wonderful holiday, set in a magical spot. People come back here year after year ....some over 30 years we met ..I can see why and we will be returning. Hope this helps anyone reading this review!

We are very sad to leave this wonderful place.

This hotel is in need of modernisation, it is 2026 and shower curtains are still being used!! Very dated in general! Saying that I was blown away when I opened the balcony doors, probably the best view I have ever had staying in a Greek hotel. The position of the hotel is also extremely good, being a short walk down into the harbour. The breakfast was a little boring and repetitive. No kettle in the room. Very small balcony. Beach/pool towels provided, you have to ask for them. Pool area very nice, very comfortable sunloungers. Had a great holiday on the Island, magical place. 🤩☺️

First , I will give you the good points of the hotel, set in a good location with just a short walk down to the harbour front. The breakfast were pretty good with plenty of choice but the hot food was no good for me as I am vegetarian and the egg dish always had meat in it buy saying that I never went away hungry. Pool area was lovely, and as other guests have said, the sunbeds were super comfy. Poolside bar did lovely snacks at lunchtime and had fabulous views. All the staff in the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Our room was on the top floor of the new building. The balcony had great views of the pool and the sea in the distance. The actual room itself was a bit too small, don’t think I could’ve stayed there for two weeks, but we were only there for a week so that was okay. Could’ve done with a bit more space for clothes.Now to the BAD Points which was the bathroom, It was something out of the 70s, in fact I would say it was an accident waiting to happen. The shower was not attached to the wall but you had to hold it which is difficult when washing your hair, no grip rails on the walls, the water sprayed everywhere, no bath mats were provided so we put towels on the floor as we were so scared of slipping. In fact when we had a shower we wore beach shoes for extra safety. The toilet seat did not fit the actual toilet, but I suppose this was because the toilet was that old you couldn’t get a seat to fit it anymore. The wash basin was all cracked and alot of the tiling was black mould. I do think a bathroom is an important part of a hotel room as you are getting 2 showers a day and I did not feel safe showering at all ( we are in our 70s) I personally would not stay here again because of the bathroom which is a shame because it is such a lovely hotel.
