Yalis Hotel

Stunning views from the terrace and pool and breakfast area. I did not like our room (with partial sea view). I mostly really didnt like the hotel management - they felt pretty unwelcoming, and recommended a bicycle/quad rental company which was terrible (asking us to pay for a flat tire repair then leaving us with an e-bike with no lights and also very condescending) and they stood by this rental service rather than support the hotel customers. this is a problem overall in Alonissos - slightly rough and condescending to tourists.

A great small boutique hotel - excellent facilities (pictures on website don't do it justice) with very friendly & helpful staff. Lovely views from room & breakfast area, room very comfortable. Nice clean pool with good loungers (fresh pool towels provided). Solid breakfasts with good selection constantly updated. Good location.

What a fabulous hotel this is. Everything about it was perfect- the room, the view, the staff, the pool, the sun loungers, the swinging chair, the poolside bar, the breakfast! We o lot booked it last minute without really looking at it in much detail so what a delight it was to discover it as we walked along the road with our rucksacks. It was only about a 20 min walk from the port. Definitely want to go back!

This was our first visit to Alonnissos, but we will definitely be back and we would not hesitate to rebook this bespoke little hotel as it is quite simply fabulous! From the warm welcome on arrival, to the extended free of charge check out time on the day of departure, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was excellent and the view from the breakfast terrace each morning was wonderful. We booked a Junior Suite with a sea view and the room exceeded our expectations at every level, with a fabulous vaulted internal ceiling, breath taking sea views and spotlessly clean! We walked from the port with a suitcase on arrival and although the initial hill out of town was a bit of a challenge, there is a great bakery with outdoor seating at the top of the hill and so we recharged our batteries here, before completing our journey. Within 24 hours of arrival though, we discovered a short cut from the hotel, which took us to the port in half the time and past two great beach side tavernas and to a further taverna which was situated in an elevated spot above the port. The hotel is also only a few hundred yards from the quaint harbour village of Votsi in the opposite direction and there is a great coastal path on the opposite side of the bay. There was one person at the Yalis who needs a special mention though, as she made our stay exceptional and that was MARY. This young lady is a fabulous asset to this hotel, she has great people skills and she could not do enough for us from the moment we arrived, even insisting on personally delivering a carafe of wine to our room, with a plate of fresh fruit and some nibbles, when we simply wanted to order a drink from the bar one evening to drink on our balcony! Thank you Mary.

I loved the hotel. Very nice room with gorgeous view on the sea. Beautiful pool and excellent service of towels. The beach is only a 5 minutes walk. I made the most of it without a car but that’s challenging, especially in the evenings because there is not much going on in the nearby Votsi and the walk to Patiri is not very pleasant. But I got takeaway food from nearby little joints and ate on my balcony and that was lovely. My only not so positive comment would be about the breakfast which is below expectations for such a place, especially when it comes to the coffee! Watery filter coffee is included, espresso is extra and not very good either. I think they should make an effort to improve the coffee offer to be just perfect

We arrived at this hotel after a 4 hour ferry trip from Thessaloniki. It is situated a couple of kilometres from Patitiri, the port and largest town in Alonnisos. We were fortunate to be able to check in immediately despite the relatively early hour. our studio was large and we were just able to see the sea from the little balcony ouside. Breakfast was really enjoyable and was helped by the fact that there were few people at this small hotel. The views from the patio over the sea were lovely and the freshly squeezed orange juice and the local yoghurt delicious. All staff were really friendly throughout our stay and we got the impression that the hotel was probably family-run, such was the convivial atmosphere there. A number of guests had hired cars and that would certainly be a good idea as the hotel is quite a walk back to Patitiri and the bus service on the island is very limited. However, short walks will take you to a small supermarket and there are a number of restaurants within a 5 minute walk. There is a very nice pool area and a more sheltered seating area above it, both offering delightful sea views. Overall, we were very pleased with our choice of hotel on this beautiful, quiet island.
