Facilities

At the family-run and very lovingly managed Ekavi Hotel, the motto is "come as a guest, leave as a friend." ME FILOUS stands for special hospitality, with which the German-speaking owner Chrisoula and her entire team make every holiday day special. The small hotel is not only an ideal place for relaxation but also a perfect starting point for exploring the diverse island. The 59 accommodation units, spread over 2 floors, have also been renovated and offer every comfort. The central meeting point is the reception (open 17 hours a day) with a safe (for a fee) and a cozy lounge. Wi-Fi is included in public areas. There is also a breakfast room and a bar. An à la carte restaurant with a terrace offers Greek and international delicacies while overlooking the sunset. In the well-maintained outdoor area, a sun terrace with comfortable loungers and daybeds around the freshwater swimming pool invites you to relax and is an ideal meeting point for pleasant conversations and relaxed hours in the sun. The adjacent pool bar provides refreshments. Loungers and umbrellas are available free of charge at the pool, and for a fee at the beach.
