Lovely stay at the Water
Arrived before official check in but chap on reception was very helpful and as my room was ready I was able to check in early. Communication with the hotel was excellent. I was in a room street side and although room had no view and was close to local bars and restaurants, it was clean and the noise didn’t affect my sleep. My only slight criticism was there was a coffee mug and pod in the room but no facilities. It wasn’t till 3rd day when I asked that I found out there are facilities in the basement to make tea and coffee… I would visit again.

Limited directions on how to get to this hotel - it is not accessible by car, and not on Google Maps. No one to greet me at the front desk and phone calls went unheeded. Loud dance music until 3am. Coffee was offered but none was in the room nor at the coffee station. When asked, the front desk person didn’t know how to operate the machine.

This was a real gem! Would book again in a heartbeat. Location, location, location! So calm and relaxing sitting on the terrace as the tide gently rolls up. Who needs a noise machine. Staff wonderful and welcoming. Excited that you are there to share their wonderful island. Perfect.

We had a lively stay at The Water, the staff was friendly, the balcony view was amazing! The location is walkable. We easily walked through town and did some shopping, the restaurant next door was excellent and we were able to walk to our ferry the next day.

Beautiful little hotel in an unbeatable location! Rooms are clean, beds are super comfortable, and Dimitris the hotel manager could not have been more pleasant and helpful than he was during our two separate stays at The Water. Spend a few extra bucks for a room with a water view, you won't regret it!
