A bus stop is located about 200 m from the hotel.

Facilities

In the family-run and lovingly managed Ekavi Hotel, the motto is "arrive as a guest, leave as a friend." ME FILOUS embodies special hospitality, making every holiday day special with the German-speaking owner Chrisoula and her entire team. The small hotel is not only an ideal place for relaxation but also a perfect base for exploring the diverse island. The 59 renovated units, spread over 2 floors, have also been refurbished and offer every comfort. The reception (open 17 hours a day) with a safe (for a fee) and a cozy lounge serves as a central meeting point. 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 with views of 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 leisurely hours in the sun. The adjacent pool bar provides refreshments. Loungers and umbrellas are available free of charge by the pool, and for a fee on the beach.
