I spent a week here on my third trip to Ios and it was the best accommodation so far. Mylopotas is the main tourist beach on the island, but it's so large that it never feels crowded. Deep Blue Rooms is located just slightly north of the centre point of the beach, making it an equal distance to get to Far Out village/club at the south end, or the many tavernas and mini market at the north end.||||A free transfer to/from the port was included, though there are regular buses in high season every 15-20 minutes, should you need it. My room was on the second floor over the reception area, but it was never noisy and I had the biggest balcony - bigger than a lot of hotel rooms I've stayed in!||||The room was also large, with a double and single bed, small kitchenette, modern bathroom and plenty of storage and shelving for clothes etc.||||Breakfast was different every day, and served to your table rather than a buffet. Though I didn't like all of the items every day, there was always enough to fill me up, including free refills of coffee.||||The hotel is family run and everyone is very friendly. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend it as one of the best places on Ios, if you like being...
Read moreA lovely hotel with charming hosts in a great location. The resort doesn’t really open up until mid to late May and nothing was open so you will have to go into town. Again not much open. Absolutely loved IOS and was our favourite island on our Cyclades island adventure. It’s typically Greek, unspoilt and everyone was so friendly, helpful and prices to eat are very reasonable compared to the ‘Insta destination’ islands. Back to the Deep Blue, room was comfortable and well furnished with complimentary toiletries. Breakfast was great and each day just slightly different. It gets served to you and consisted of toast, pancakes, waffles, yoghurt, honey, bacon, juice and coffee/tea. Pancakes and bacon on the 1st day and waffles on the 2nd day. It set us up for the day. I can’t remember everybody’s name except for Costas and Stavros so apologies but everyone was very attentive. We were very grateful to be given a lift by the owners to the port as well, Beach is beautiful and just across the road. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again but I’d probably choose...
Read moreWhat a great property. It's not a luxury hotel and it doesn't try to be one. The room was simple, spacious and clean. It had a large fridge, kettle, hairdryer, A/C and a small TV. Bathroom was modern enough with a bit of a smell but it's common in Greece due to ancient plumbing. But we loved our stay so much thanks to amazing location, fantastic, friendly owners (who picked us up from the port), lovely breakfast, cheap beer (Alfa forever!), excellent value for money and awesome beach on the doorstep. Deep Blue is a great choice for people looking for relaxation, peace, friendly atmosphere and value. Especially in October - we had the beach to ourselves. Though that also means very few restaurants still open at that time around Mylopotas but the town was a lovely 20 mins walk or a short bus / taxi ride. We've had an amazing...
