Anna Studios

Samos Airport is not particularly big, and we went through Security / Customs fairly quickly. The longest wait was on the transfer bus. The transfer time is less than 5 mins once the bus set off. Unusually 5 British couples got off at Anna Studios and there was quite a queue for the rooms. Fortunately, my wife was first off the bus, and we got the room that Yannis promised us; Room 6 on the ground floor. The queue did not last long and everyone had a room card within five minutes of arrival due to the efficiency and preparation of Yannis on reception. The reception has moved and was ably supported throughout the day by either Yannis or Aspa, both exceptional and happy hosts. When we had an issue with the TV remote, Yannis fixed it very quickly. The room was basic, but what do you need from a bedroom. The fridge was cold and fit for purpose and the shower and curtain was good and the beds comfy. Clean towels every other day and a room refresh by a very friendly cleaner. My only very minor, minor moan was lack of storage, but we used the spare bed which met our needs; we always take too many cloths and stuff! Air con and safe was €75 (cash) for 7 days. The pool was great, did tend to get some debris due to the abundant foliage, lemon, and lime tress. However a quick turn on the pumps and the pool cleared very quickly; this never caused a problem, and the pool was nearly in use and was a social place to talk to other couples. The pool was cleaned every other day whilst we were there. The pool itself was extremely refreshing due to the hot daytime temperatures. There was never a fight for sunbeds and the sunbeds were comfortable. The hotel has many nationalities staying including British, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, and Dutch. The hotel bar was well managed by Sanna in the day and Constantine at night. Sanna has an infectious bubbly personality, and both were very eager to please and nothing was too much trouble. The Mythos was especially welcomed at a cost of €5 a 500ml bottle, in a glass straight out of the freezer; the crisps was also a nice addition. The beach was a 10-minute walk if you used the short cut just after the bridge. The beach was small pebbles, and the sun beds was €10 for two. Almyra, is a nice little restaurant just off the beach forming part of the Fito Aqua Bleu Resort. Service was quick and the food good. Pythagorio, a fantastic hub of bars and restaurants is a €6 taxi cab or 15-minute walk. A massive thank you to Yannis, Aspa, Sanna and Constantine, we will definitely see you next year

Spent another week in the heat at Jasmin Studios. Warmly greeted by Yannis and Aspa on arrival and given a welcome drink. Studio was cleaned every day by the friendly cleaner. We had a problem with our toaster which was resolved immediately without fuss. We love the rustic charm of this place and will be back! The mix of different nationalities staying at the hotel also appealed to us - English, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Dutch to name but a few! Thanks again Yannis. See you next year! Bill and Carin

Having stayed at Anna Studio and Jasmin Studio in the past, this time I preferred Jasmin Studio. It has a beautiful garden settting with scented flowers and trees - very relaxing. There was also a glorious view of the mountains from sitting at the quiet private pool

Our 4th visit to this lovely property and we would never consider staying anywhere else in Samos. Yannis and his family go the extra mile to make you feel welcome and make your stay special. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the bar well stocked and the food delicious (especially the weekly traditional Greek barbecue). A great place to relax and make new friends. We will definitely be back 🇬🇷

Thank you, We had the best week ever! Rooms comfortable and clean Bar had a good selection snacks and lunches and lovely cocktails Pool area was chilled and you could get a sunbed at anytime! Staff were welcoming and chatting And ideal location quiet but also a short walk to bars and restaurants We loved the vibe so much we have already booked for next year See you next June x

We spent a week at Anna Studios/Jasmine Apartments and overall we enjoyed our stay. Our apartment was very dated, but the duplex apartments have not yet been renovated (we knew before booking though). The swimming pool was clean and the service was friendly. One thing that irked me was there was no bottle of water waiting for us in the apartment. Given that you can’t drink the tap water and it’s a very hot few minutes walk to the supermarket when you arrive at midday, the provision of a cheap bottle of drinking water in the fridge would have been thoughtful.

We had a superb holiday at Anna Studios in June this year. Firstly the hotel is extremely well run, clean and the grounds very tidy. Yannis was exceptionally helpful when my wife needed to see an Optician. We will definitely be back

We went back to our Happy Place. Such friendly helpful management. The property is clean, comfortable, friendly and has everything you need for an amazing two weeks in the Greek sun. Very safe you could leave anything in your room and no one would touch it! We do have other holidays, but return here time after time as just Heaven. I just can’t understand the recent very negative review. Sounds like the wrong property. See you again next year.
