Psaravolada Hotel Milos

Love Love Love! The view, the people, the food, everything was just perfect! This was our favorite part of our trip. The staff is so friendly, both the resort & restaurant staff. We had a mixup with our transfers, so a member of the hotel staff graciously gave us a ride to port and wouldn't accept our payment. The location was so quiet, we spent an evening watching the sunset on our sun-beds, drinking wine & just enjoying our time together. It's not crowded at all. It is a rocky road to get to, but it's not dangerous and totally worth it. Definitely recommend using a car or ATV for it. Don't hesitate, book here!

Psaravolada is truly a taste of heaven on earth! It has it all: breathtaking views, amazing hospitality (shout out to our pal Alexandros), great breakfasts, nice rooms, private beach and is very close to lots of beaches. The price is also very affordable making it an incredible value. We would come back in a heartbeat! Only knocks were an intense and not welcoming waiter at the restaurant.

We spent almost a week in Psaravolada end of August and could have well stayed more. The room was impeccable, vast, very comfortable and the view you have on the morning when you wake up is just astonishing. A real East to West 180 ocean view from above. You can't just get used to it. The place is very quiet and clean. The nice breakfast is very pleasant and also offering undisputed view. This hotel really is an oasis of quietude and bliss on that sometimes invaded and crowded touristic island. Will definitely go there again if in Milos.

Pros: - The view is exceptional. Our balcony had one of the best views of our honeymoon (which included Milos and also Santorini). Given the hotel is perched high on the cliff you get a beautiful full length view of the sea, horizon and sky. It's one of those views you will never be able to digest in full and will never be able to capture it's full beauty on camera. This really is the selling point of the hotel. - The hotel is small and peaceful. It is perfect for a relaxing escape away and a complete contrast to the hustle and bustle we experienced in Athens and Santorini. It encapsulates the Milos experience. - The quality of the restaurant food was great and breakfast is included. - The room was nicely laid out and the balcony was great. The air con worked effectively at keeping the room cool. The TV also has access to Amazon Prime and Netflix. - Nansy is very helpful on WhatsApp in booking the restaurant for dinner and in person provided helpful advice on hiring a boat. - The location makes it quiet and peaceful whilst being no more than a 15 minute drive from most of the locations you'd want to visit including Plaka (capital with sunset view) and Adamas (main port town). Cons: - The service from some of the members of staff in the restaurant was sub par. As has been stated on some of the other reviews, some of the staff members treat you as if you are being a pain for asking essential questions and this has forced us to give the hotel four stars rather than five. On our first night, we were not told we would have to book the restaurant in advance and when we turned up for dinner (early at around 18:30) we were scoffed at. Fortunately they gave us a great table in the end, but if we had arrived at a more popular later time we may have been left late in the evening with no access to food without driving all the way to the busier towns on the island after a long day of travel. Given there were plenty of tables available at the time and for the next couple of hours we also didn't quite understand the reaction. We witnessed on a few occasions some of the staff openly laugh at customers. The language barrier meant the exchanges come across more as rude than friendly banter. However there was one exception from a younger waiter who was a pleasure to interact with. Unfortunately we didn't catch his name but it is worth caveating given he was great. At breakfast, you order each individual item from a set menu which can be a bit cumbersome (although good for picking and mixing your breakfast which some would like). The Greek yogurt was great. However, at almost every breakfast one of the orders was missing an item, and it was difficult each time to obtain milk for the coffee. In summary the restaurant has so much potential, but needs a more transparent booking system and the older more senior staff need training on customer relations as the close-to-rude / rude encounters can create an uncomfortable feeling that affects the whole experience. - The i

The second year in a row, we didn’t know where to go for our holiday, and after thinking a lot, and taking everything into consideration, we just looked at each other and said - back to Psaravolada. And was it a great decision! Nancy was there for us for anything and everything we needed making our stay yet another holiday to remember dearly. Milos is a beautiful island with a lot of wonderful places, and I am sure with a lot of great hotels and places to stay - we have seen some on our trips to other places on the island, but there is the only one that gives you so much space and privacy at the same time, and an amazing view that takes your breath away every morning you wake up and look through the window. We highly recommend Psaravolada Resort. We will definitely be back.

We stayed here for 14 days and the attention to care, quality and comfort was just brilliant. The food is really really good quality although a little expensive but to be expected in this quite remote location and with such excellent quality, we really didn’t mind paying for what was one of the best places to eat in Milos in our view. We included breakfast in our package and it was really worth it; a good sized breakfast with plenty of pastries to add in and a lovely morning welcome from staff each day. The room was great; we had a suit and it was spacious and very clean; cleaned daily to a high standard and with tea, coffee and water provided free daily. Although we didn’t get to snorkel at the private beach, I did go down for a look and it was awesome; Stefanos, one of the owners, said the snorkelling is brilliant there. Instead, we went to Agia Kyriaki the next beach along which is very easy to get to, although a steep walk back but worth it, and there is a great seafood taverna on the beach. The staff and owners were very helpful with info about local adventures, places to explore and restaurants. The accommodation is placed on a steep hill, so use of car, battery operated bicycle or as we did travel by taxi is advised. Saying that, I did venture for walks several times and it is a great hill walk along the main road towards Adamas or Paleochori the next beach along- which apparently is good for snorkelling too. The views, well what can I say, simply amazing. On a clear day you can even see as far as Crete and Santorini! Sunset is bliss and being high up and away enough from other buildings it’s a pretty dark sky at night, so the stars are amazing. Wonderful place to stay, lovely staff, great food and fantastic views! Can’t recommend this place enough, and to make it perfect the family who run it, as well as all the staff were all so kind, lovely, and attentive to our needs; well it was clear that they genuinely wanted us to have a good stay. Thanks to everyone at Psaravolada for such a wonderful and relaxing time!

AMAZING resort- would give more than five stars if I could. The rooms are very nice and the AC works very well! It is on the side of a mountain up a steep hill and has GORGEOUS views. The service was unbelievable. The owners were so helpful, responsive, and went above and beyond for us. The breakfast was delicious and the view from the restaurant can't be beat. The omelet was HUGE and we loved the honey and fruit. We also ate at the restaurant twice for dinner and it was DELICIOUS. Everyone was so friendly. Highly recommend grabbing a drink and watching the sunset from in front of the restaurant. Once it is dark out the stars are UNBELIEVABLE! A few things to be aware of: You need a car to stay here (and generally highly recommend renting a car in Milos in general). Also there is a beach within walking distance, but that beach is down several hundred stairs. We opted not to hike down that and instead drove to many other gorgeous beaches. Our favorites were sarakaniki (moon beach), firiplaka and a boat ride to Kleftikos. All must dos! Would 100000% stay here again when we return to milos.
