The location was excellent for people with a car. Just a bit away from the bigger towns and close walking distance from a nice not too crowded beach. Also even closer walking distance to a very popular (crowded) small beach with caves. The facilities were very nice and exceeded my expectations. The bed was comfortable. The 2 staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good enough for my wife and I. By car it only took 5 minutes to drive to Pollonia and about 10 to either Plaka or Adamantas.

Couldn't have been better. The wife loved it. Just watch out for 3 hour parking at the main port. Cost us a 20 euro parking ticket when we took an all day boat cruise. Gave the car rental agency the 20 euro for them to take care of the ticket. I imagine they are used to this.

Unit#1 was an efficient layout with a small back outdoor space with a table/4 chairs which had a sea view. Daily cleaning which was appreciated. The main bedroom was upstairs -- AC was quick to cool the whole unit. The continental breakfast was amazing - elegantly presented and everything you could want including freshly squeezed orange juice. The location was easy to access everything (by car) but also quiet, rural, by the seaside. The apartment had an easy walk to the caves and swimming nearby -- but get out and take a memorable boat tour! The host was very kind and welcoming.

We booked for aa family of 4 -- albeit last minute for a 3 night stay. Unit#1 is a split level and would be spacious for a couple with an additional living space. For us, the living space was converted to 2 extra single beds which was also the room by the front door. I guess we were initially surprised by this. Cozy vs. cramped for a family of 4, but really in the end -- it served our needs just fine, and this was soon forgotten by the wonderful breakfast the next day! Plus it's all about getting outdoors and experiencing Milos for its beautiful beaches and towns.

The staff was super helpful - on our first day, the woman at reception - I believe her name was Eleni - went through a map of Milos with us, showing us the beaches worth visiting, and those worth skipping on our short stay, and also gave us recommendations for restaurants and places with good views throughout the island. They were kind enough to do a load of laundry for us, since we'd just come from vacationing in another area of Europe, and the price were very reasonable. I think €8 a kilo, and they had it all nicely folded and brought it back to us. Very nice room, with a great view of the sea off our front balcony, and a nice balcony off the back of the room as well. The bed was very comfortable. They provided anything you could think to need - corkscrew, espresso maker, water kettle and tea, plates, flatware, a milk frother, what looked like a sandwich press (though we didn't use that), hair dryer, makeup remover cloths, beach towels, you name it. Very considerate of their guests. Wifi was strong - better than some other hotels we've stayed at. Breakfast was a sort of continental buffet, and had fruit, pastries, eggs, cereal, yogurt, all the staples. We only went one morning, but enjoyed it! We had rented a car, which I think was a good thing, since it was a little far away from some things if you didn't have one. But for us it was perfect - not too busy of an area.

The counter space is a little limited in the bathroom, so getting ready in there was not overly convenient for my wife, but there is a nice desk and chair out in the room that worked well. One light in our room flickered on and off throughout our stay, which was mildly annoying, but we mostly left the curtains open and let in the sunlight instead of turning on the lights, so we really only noticed it at night. I'm sure they would have fixed it if we'd mentioned it - we just didn't really think to because it was such a time-limited issue. Overall, really nothing of any significance, and certainly nothing that would prevent us from returning.

Great communication with Ilias , at the checkin we got a welcome bottle of water ( the water is not drinkable on the island). The hotel has a great space for parking, The breakfast is complete and good. The hotel is 6 min by car to Pollonia, great place for restaurants, and around 12/16 min by car to Adamas and Plaka, great for sunset, restaurants and markets.

Although the shower is well done and with a nice water pressure, the showerhead should have a support to dont have to keep it all the time during the shower.

the location was perfect as a base for exploring Milos. (you need to rent your own transport to get to multiple beaches, sights and eating at great restaurants) the staff at AvraP were very helpful and responsive for all our enquiries. our room had spectacular views and was very comfortable to stay in. we will stay here the next time we come to Milos!

This is a really lovely hotel with super friendly staff. The hotel is located close to 2 beaches - one is a classic sandy beach and the other one is in between 2 huge rocks (really beautiful). I got a very spacious room with a kitchen on one floor and a bedroom on a lower floor (separate room). I also got access to 2 private taracess! Breakfast is good, there is a selection of basic things (boiled eggs, bread, sweet and sour things + Greek specialties), every day there is also different warm dish.

The only thing I didn't like was the shower. The bathroom in general is ok but the shower head is not mounted to the wall. I do think is a little inconvenient but not a big deal.

Beautiful boutique hotel with amazing sea views. This place was outstanding - located right next to a beautiful, quite beach- the views are really stunning. The rooms are stylishly decorated and are cleaned daily and the sheets are changed daily too - this is a great bonus. the breakfast is so delicious and cooked daily with fresh ingredients, there is so much choice too (like 4 kinds of milk (one is vegan), everything is very thoughtful and considered. Our kids are fussy eaters, but the breakfast was their daily highlight. The couple that run the hotel are so lovely and helpful - nothing is too much trouble. I can’t recommend this place enough.

We loved everything

Location can't be beat -- Avra Pahainas is away from the annoying and cramped tourist hubbub in Adamantas and Pollonia. You definitely need a car to stay here, but it's so worth it. We came for our honeymoon and it was so romantic and secluded. Staff was kind, rooms were clean and spacious (we had two separate private terraces), and daily breakfast was delicious. The winds on the north side of the island are quite strong, but we really loved how it never felt too hot in/around our apartment.

All was great -- no complaints

Location is great, car necessary! easy to reach popular beaches, just a short drive, very friendly and helpful personal, bus stop nearby too, clean, nice room, good breakfast

No iron, but no big deal :)

We really enjoyed the location, Pachena was close to some lovely beaches including Sarakiniko. Breakfast each day was a lovely spread and a nourishing way to start each day. Management was very accomodating with our needs regarding an extra third person staying with us too. Great parking on site for our rental car.

There was only one day where room service forgot to re-supply toilet paper otherwise everything was in great order.
