This is definitely NOT the case with Nefeli sunset studios, where things are done in an honest manner to offer maximum joy to their guests!

At only 30 euros (September 2010) you circumnavigate the entire island, making a number of stops (in our case three) for swims and a stop on nearby Kimolos for lunch.

but Roula & Makis saved the night and my vacation by quickly finding me what might have been the last rental car on the island that night and they waited for me to arrive so they could check me in.

on check out we were informed it was not included and it was €20 each day for the two of us.

She even let us check in three hours early (since the couple before us left on an early flight), allowed us to leave our bags at the desk after check out since our ferry didn't leave for a few hours, and arranged for a taxi to bring us both to and from the hotel.

We arrived at 4am due to weather delays and Roula kindly arranged for a taxi to meet us at the port and stayed up to check us in to our rooms.

but due to the economy we had to cancel, they were so generous to let us use our original deposit this year.

), beautifully whitewashed (and cleaned every time the chance strong wind deposits dust on exterior surfaces).

Not everyone on the island takes credit card, so don't be surprised if you're asked to make a bank-transfer as a deposit (our bank wasn't happy about that! ).

We found Pollonia changed, due in part to the Covid virus

The jacuzzi really came in handy when we couldn't go to the beaches due to the high winds.

but unfortunately due to strong winds that day we had to cancel it.

but due to the extremely windy weather (apparently unusual) we couldn't enjoy breakfasts on our balcony as planned.

I had had to cancel my trip to Milos last minute due to transport issues

Due to stormy weather the ferry trip was cancelled and we had to cancel our booking.

Our plane from Milos to Athens was cancelled due to high winds.

Unfortunately, our ferry to Milos was canceled due to high winds that morning.

Before we went to Milos we prearranged a hire car through the hotel only 2 days or so before we were due to arrive at the island from Koufonissi, this really helped us out as you definitely need a car if staying in Pollonia.

but probably due to the relatively bad weather - sun heated boilers).

You see the best sunsets and you can walk to Pollonia center to the restaurants in 5-7 minutes.

We appreciated the ability to order from the menu and to take our trays to various locations on the grounds or to our rooms.

Breakfasts were amazing, with a great choice of delicious food which you can choose to eat wherever you prefer, including in the beautiful front garden of the studios overlooking the ocean.

Amazing views, friendly people, and great food.

Breakfast was made to order, beautifully presented, varied and delicious, with the option of eating in the garden or in our room.

Location is quiet and within walking distance of several restaurants and a nice quiet beach.

She also gave us good recommendations on restaurants.

but staying right on  the edge of the sea yet 10 minutes walk from the little village and restaurants was perfect.

Upon entering the reception area, we were greeted by a smiling Roula who proved to be an invaluable resource in terms of choosing locations and restaurants to visit during our stay.

The location is perfect, walking distance from the center of Pollonia, with a big choices of nice restaurants. We had a wonderful stay :-)

Quiet property yet close to all the restaurants.

Location is ideal, as the property is a 10 minute walk from harbor and restaurants.

It was convenient to rent a car from them and good restaurants were within a 10 minute walk.

Again it was very useful and a pleasure having the good advices from Makis and Roula about restaurants, places to visit, beaches, weather, and everything.

There are many lovely places for lunch and dinner within walking distance.

A lovely restaurant (Rakomelo) is one block away on the water.

Both times, we had our pick of the entire menu despite it being so early.

There are a number of superb restaurants within walking distance, along with a variety of beaches and activities.

Room is clean and spacious, with a nice big porch.

I would definitely recommend this this hotel
Very good breakfast, nice rooms and everything is spotless clean.

Beautiful location, immaculate rooms and amazing service.

Our room was clean and had an amazing view.

We loved the sunset views and the comfortable clean room.

Also the girls from the kitchen and cleaning lady were always friendly and the rooms are really clean.

Rooms were very clean and parking was available on-site.

They were very accommodating; the room was clean and large; the property is so peaceful to sit outside and enjoy the view.

The rooms are very clean and light and the bathrooms are lovely.

They have a beautiful and comfortable place, everything was kept clean and the rooms were decorated very nicely.

but Nefeli's perfect little spot in Pollonia was picturesque and lovely in every way. Our rooms were clean (modern feel yet still Greek!)

Our room was clean, the AC worked, and we had wonderful views.

Breakfast is great and the rooms are very clean.

Room was spotlessly clean, ample space and gorgeous view.

The rooms are clean, have great views over the Pallonia bay, well serviced and air conditioned.

The Nefeli Sunset Studios location is perfect - - walking distance to great restaurants,  amazing sunset views, and spotlessly clean rooms.

The rooms were spotlessly clean and spacious.

The room was immaculately clean and exactly as advertised.

Makis was very helpful and our room 
was spotless,no wonder he has so many guest returning We loved our stay and would recommend this great Hotel ,the views the sunset was amazing

Shout out to Mike and his wife for being patient and attentive.

The lovely owners Roula and Makis, welcomed us with a bottle of wine which we enjoyed while watching the first of many sunsets.

Roula and Makis have thought of everything to make staying at their studios comfortable, convenient, and pleasurable.

The rooms are charming and kept spotless by an excellent staff.

So friendly and open owners who really represent the Greek hospitality!!

There's no question that we will stay here again when we visit Milos!

As mentioned in my title, the views from the entire hotel area were stunning, the location is cute and quaint, the facilities are clean and well maintained, and the staff is extremely caring and welcoming (one of the operators even gave me a free ride to the port upon checking out as an extremely kind gesture).

A truly wonderful place - stunning views, amazing sunsets and warm, hospitable hosts.

Amazing sunset, great breakfast and small private beach for relaxing moments
It is located in the best part of Pollonia
The personnel is very close and kind and the cleaning also very good 
Offered the chance to bring the breakfast up in the room 
would come back every time! !

Once again everything was perfect, from the cleaning of the room, to the gorgeous breakfast in the morning, not to mention of  the kindness and availability of the Papafakli family who runs this hotel in a smooth and efficient way.

Husband and wife are just incredibly kind and they have a staff that take great pride in making your stay extraordinary.

The owner of this b&b is a super friendly local lady.

The owners are super helpful and friendly and the accommodation and property is very clean and well kept.

The hosts were really friendly and gave us perfect tips, what to visit on the island.

Very friendly and helpful owners, they will definitely make sure that you can see best of the island.

The location is stunning, with the sea outside your door.

The view is incredible, the breakfast was delicious and our room/balcony was spectacular.

It was hard to pry me from the terrace with its sounds and view of the sea,

The location, beside the beautiful blue Aegean Sea, is incredibly scenic.

), to the delicious and fresh breakfasts offered daily, to the evening sunset views.

From the amazing service, unparalleled hospitality, breathtaking sunsets straight from the bedroom windows and proximity to the beach (not to mention the most delicious breakfast we’ve had in while), Nefeli Sunset Studios is a must!

I didn’t feel like I was at a Hotel instead I felt I was at their home staying in a beautiful room,  having a delicious healthy fresh breakfast served by Regina out on the terrace every morning overlooking the stunning sea and ending our evenings with a sunset view that was breathtaking!!!

We spent a fair amount of time out there, especially every night for the fantastic sunset view!

We spent hours on our terrace just enjoying the view.

Big, clean and well organised room, with a wonderful view on the sea and sunsets !

The property is beautiful .. the rooms are well laid out with sea views and of course the amazing sunset at the end of the day.

But the best thing was the view and the calmness of Nefeli Sunset.

The grounds are well equipped with all amenities needed to relax, and the view from the rooms and garden is incredible, especially at Sunset.

The view, not only for sunset, is very nice and it is also a perfect place to take a swim.

Very beautiful rooms with great view, nice facilities and decor and very nice hosts.

We literally ran out of money that night and were only paying with card.

Like I’m actually going to trust them with my billing info provided via email for their use only to cover their own mistake.

but such an establishment should accept cards with no issues or questioning.

We were collected from the port by Santa Maria Village minibus along with others and charged 10 euros, and booked our return journey to the port with them also.

In fact, when we checked out a day early to head home, Elias did by even charge for the night we had booked

I believe that hotels charging prices that high should squeeze fresh orange juice in the morning and serve fresh coffee instead of urn type.

You buy an internet "Hot Spot" card at the desk for 5E and have about an hour of use.

but when we have asked for late check outs in all our trips none of them was charged without warning us before.

Internet access cards could be purchased from reception and used at any time – until the hour of access time on the cards ran out.

One thing they could fix is that the mattress was too firm

By the time we got back to our room from breakfast, someone was already attending to the issue and fixed the problem.

On 3 separate calls over 3 days to the lady at the desk (I presume the owner's wife), no progress was made to fix this issue.

She got housekeeping to give us toilet paper and we tried again to explain we didnt need toilet paper; we needed the toilet fixed.

We didn't have hot water one morning and told them when we went for breakfast.

Only one point: all the rooms don t have the view on the bay.

At one point, I had a minor crisis involving my phone and a gypsy scam at a local beach.

I had been sleeping on pretty uncomfortable beds for a over a week at this point (from my time in Santorini and Naxos),

There is a 'short cut' in to the port from a path at the back of the hotel, it's a little uneven and not well lit at one point

Couple of strange points - rooms do not have safes and there is no offer of safe deposit at reception and the pool bar closes between 3pm and 5pm ??

One night we branched off at the wrong point (even

Bed was hard for our liking, felt a bit unpleasant at some points.

They put on a huge spread of food every morning and switch it up so those with longer stays get some variety.

The rooms were extremely clean, the food was delicious, and the staff could not have been nicer!

There is a bar by the pool where they serve good food and drinks.

We were able to walk to town and restaurants and were a short atv ride away from everything else.

Staff was very friendly and front desk helpful with restaurant suggestions and stops to make around the island.

The rooms are spacious, the pool is pristine and overlooks the ocean and nearby town, everything is spotless, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the food is excellent.

It’s an easy short walk into town where there are many restaurants.

After a day of exploring Milos, the kind staff, refreshing pool, and frozen cocktails are a welcome sight.

In the evenings, all the best restaurants were just a 10-15 minute stroll away.

We lovedddd the margaritas and the bar guys were super friendly too.

very nice Greek structure, big and cosy rooms, perfect location, 5-10 min walking distance to Adamas therefore close to restaurants and shops,

The pool is very nice and also has a great view, the cocktails are very good ;)
The big plus: the sense of service and the quality of the staff (restaurant advice, availability, accommodating, welcoming, departure gift).

The breakfast is just wow, with a lot of varieties specially healthy meals and everyday they make new additions, and I appreciate that they were super strict with precaution measures(gloves, masks) to avoid any spread COVID and to protect clients.

The hotel has a great location, just walking distance from Adamas, which makes it very easy to reach several restaurants and amenities nearby.

A lot of great restaurants on the beach as well!

The food path to Adamas is easy to walk and lit at night.

We loved sitting in our hottub and watching the sunset and the lights come on in the town before heading the short distance down the hill to get some food.

We will certainly recommend people to stay here if they want to be near the adamas center, restaurants, marina, etc.

Hamos!,  and scores of seaside restaurants, too numerous to list.

Clean rooms, great service and excellent knowledge of the island meant we passed a superb few days.

The rooms were clean and spacious with a modern design.

The room was very clean, as are all areas of the hotel.

The room was clean with an amazing view on the swimming pool and sea.

Five Stars to the cleaners who should be rewarded as every day we found our room immaculate.

The room was clean and has everything you need for your stay.

The room was very clean and confortable, with a calm view on the hills and sea in the background.

All rooms were clean, modern and comfortable with individual terraces.

Room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

My only complaint is that the bed we slept on was horribly uncomfortable.

Somehow my roommate and I got booked into a room that sleeps 6.

however you could hear everything from the room above and next door, also the air conditioning was so loud we needed ear plugs and the fridge made Loud noises therefore we did not sleep much during our stay..

though it (too loud) and without it (too hot), so, despite the comfortable bed, we didn't manage to get a good night's sleep.

Actually 3 people could have slept in this room since it had a double bed and one twin.

It was like sleeping on a very old futon mattress.

After getting a good night’s sleep (the bed and pillows were quite comfortable, while the room was very quiet and dark), we each made futile attempts to shower without soaking the bathroom floor.

The staff were so helpful,  we had to change our arrangements and move our holiday forwards and they couldn’t have done more to accommodate  our needs.

We were very happy with the hotel and found everyone who worked there to be incredibly welcoming and accommodating.

The rooms spacious and clean, the breakfast was plentiful and delicious, enjoyed the pool after a long day with sunbeds and bar service and the staff is super helpful!

but all the helpful staff and wonderful service.

The staff was wonderful, everyone was extremely kind and helpful.

His kind advice was very precious during our stay.

Coordinating 11 people, arranging trips and transfers was all handled beautifully by the excellent staff.

The staff here is incredibly nice and offered great service.

The service was superb, arranging everything you want with lots of useful recommendations!

The hotel and its employees want you to be relaxed and happy.

Their communication before the trip was excellent.

The facility is magnificent, the staff is incredibly attentive, and the breakfast provided is top-notch.

She is passionate about her craft and was able to give me tips to take back with me to maintain health and energy flow!

What we liked the most was the service and the kindness of the people at the reception.

The stuff was super helpful and the selection was superb.

A few highlights of this place are: 

1) The pool - The view from the pool is amazing and the pool bar is awesome (best pool bar food I've ever had - try the pizza!).

Everything was perfect: great location in Milos, splendid and big rooms with great views, very clean and well kept.

The pool is great, the poolside cocktails excellent and the view fantastic.

We got to stay in the Pearl suite which offered a private patio with a great view of the ocean.

Great location perched on a hill overlooking the town.

It’s located perfectly on the island of Milos…perched on a hill so you have a panoramic view of the sea,

If you’re lucky, you’ll get one with a gorgeous view of the sea with the sparkling pool in the foreground.

We booked a seaview room with balcony overlooking the pool and our evening view, morning view and all day view was just magical - I could not get over it.

Hotel is extremely clean, rooms were very comfortable and the pool area has a stunning view across the bay.

The hotel is very well located on the heights of Adamas, with a breathtaking view of the sea, very pleasant sunrise/sunset.

The pool area is relaxing and has great views.

An all round great hotel with amazing views of the port of Milos.

nice view, excellent breakfast, pleasant rooms, terrace and swimming pool.

The pool is just amazing with a nice view and the pool bar is really good.

I loved Santa Maria as it has a big pool, bar, big brekfast selection, parking, and my favorite view of Adamas.

Santa Maria Village was absolutely stunning!

This hotel has just an amazing view from the pool.

Smart TV with HMDI so we could plug in and stream NFL on Sunday.

The room was perfect, nothing to say (if we´re picky then I would say the lack of an electric plug in the bathroom).

The villa does provide anti-mosquito incense which you plug into an electrical socket,
