Mare Blue Ios

My stay at Mare Blue Ios was an amazing experience that exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of exceptional service, cleanness and a true taste of Greek hospitality made it a right destination. I would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a blissful getaway on Ios island.

My husband-and-I stayed here for 3 nights. Honestly, it’s what you would expect a 2-star hotel to be. When we first arrived, we got placed in the wrong room because of a miscommunication (the owners don’t really speak English, which is surprising since Ios has mostly international tourists). Our actual room was a 3-bed room because we like the extra space. It was TINY. The bathroom was also small but the worst part of it was the shower. I was born in Europe, so I’m used to showers without curtains, but this one didn’t even have enough of a separation between the shower and the floor, which led to a lot of water ending up on the floor – it made me not even want to shower there. Also, I found quite a few spiders in the room. Additionally, there are not separate balconies so if you want to dry your bathing suite, you have to dry it in on the common patio. One good thing is that they had air conditioning. Another good thing is that it was a pretty good location (near the port). Other than that, it was mediocre at best.
