Boutique Hotels in Koufonisia

I could not have chosen a better place to stay on my first visit to Iraklia. Alexandra met me at the port and took me straight to my room which was tastefully decorated in shades of white and had a nice balcony at the back of the property, overlooking the field and property further up the hill. I immediately felt at home with a coffee sitting on one of their two comfortable settees overlooking wonderful greenery, the village, and the port. It was mesmerising watching yellow butterflies fluttering amongst the trees and the vines. In the evenings I could sit on a raised patio and watch the sunset over Paros with a very nice glass of gin & tonic and some delicious herbed peanuts. All the staff here are delightful, and I must particularly mention Marchella (please forgive the spelling) who became my Greek teacher for the week and put up with my dreadful pronunciation always with a smile and helpful correction! There was also terrific advice available from Alexandra and Marchella about walks, beaches, and restaurants. It does involve a walk uphill from the village so is less suitable for anyone who might struggle with walking, but I could not recommend anywhere more highly. Thank you for a truly magical stay on your beautiful island!

Very elegant villa and garden. Enjoyed the balcony and the view. Staff so kind.
