Christos and his Wife are very welcoming hosts.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Also the breakfast cafe across the street and the restaurants in town were very nice. Hiking on Folegandros is supreme!

The rooms were really spacious, very clean & nicer than what the photos showed. All the facilities in the resort were excellent, the pool area & bar is fantastic ! The resort is in a perfect location, the walk to Chora isn't long at all.
Located in Chora Village of Folegandros Island, Pegados Villas offer a shared, outdoor pool.

Location as expected having stayed nearby previously. Staff were terrific, good breakfast supplied as well. Plenty of room in the accommodation and it was very clean and quiet. Comfortable bed and handy swimming pool. An easy walk into Chora for shops and restaurants.
Boasting a privileged location a few metres away from Karavostasis Port, the 5-star Anemi offers minimal, design accommodation with Cycladic features.

The town absorbed tourists so that they weren't intrusive.
The town absorbed tourists so that they weren't intrusive. The most scenic part of the town was more or less off-limits to tourists. While little shops had popped up all over the town, they were mostly tastefully adorned with a painted sign announcing their name and wares. Probably the tourist and the local weighting of the town was even. I've visited Folegandros numerous times over the past 45 years and I've seen it grow gracefully. In the early days, it was a declining farming island as the young people migrated to the big cities. Then, there was only one hotel in the town. But along the line, it resisted the temptation to sell out like some of the other Greek islands have done and it is now a very restful and satisfying place to visit.

This is a great relaxed town with plenty of dining options on 4 squares,plenty of shops and enough to do. You need a swimming pool at your hotel as beaches are too far to walk. Boat trip around island to reach all beaches was great option. Cheap bus to port every half hour or hire scooter or car. Small island can be covered quickly if you have own transport. Beaches was not our priority so if that's your thing choose a hotel on one of the two inhabited coastal spots! Folegandros is a quaint island with donkeys and rural working farms with enough small beaches if you make some effort from Chora.

The cutest little town on the cutest little island!
The cutest little town on the cutest little island! We rented a quad bike to get around which made it so easy to roam the entire island. Hiking up to watch the sunset at the Church of Panagia is a must! Most restaurants and shops close for siesta between 3pm - 5pm, but the whole town comes to life once the sun sets. We had delicious meals at Piatsa, Souvlaki Club, and Araxe. Parasagas has amazing gelato and the drinks at Aquarius were divine!

1. The church at the top of the hill, accessible through the zig-zag path. You get the best views of Chora from that path. You can see how Chora sits on top of a 200-meter cliff.
2. The spectacular views - so barren, so rocky, so wild but so beautiful.
3. Ano Meria. There are some cool cafes to check out and buy some local liqueur. Do not forget to visit the Folk Museum too. It is very interesting.
4. 1790 Wine Cave. Go for a meal there. It is a high-end restaurant but well worth a visit. It is right next door to Antheia's Apartments.
5. Do visit Canelle Bakery! It is quite hidden but have lovely cakes and pastries.
6. Try the local watermelon pie.
7. Check out Agali Beach for its picture-perfect turquoise blue waters.
8. Try the 52% Rakomelo in the town centre in one of the restaurants. You can see it prominently advertised on the garden wall of the restaurant as you walk around. It is served to you ON FIRE!
9. Try the fig gelato in one of the gelato cafes.
10. Visit Fata Morgana hotel and have a cocktail at its bar. There are some cool cocktails there. And a very friendly bartender works there too. You can ask him about the island of Nysiros if you want to stay on a volcanic island.

Lovely, scenic charming town!
Lovely, scenic charming town! Cute pedestrian streets leading to four main squares. Note that many restaurants aren't open at lunch time during May. To Zimaraki was my favourite dinner place - excellent home made pasta, pizza and salads.

You’ll find lots of cute shops and lovely restaurants with delicious, authentic food in Chora. Transport to the port, nearby beaches is straightforward, but be aware that fir most of the good ones you’ll need to take a boat from Angali or Karavostasi (the port). The landscape is classic Cycladic, rocky and beautiful. The locals are the friendliest I’ve ever encountered. Very authentic, plenty of tourists at high season but somehow not a ‘touristy’ island.

We spent one night at this beautiful family owned hotel and we were blown away by the beauty of the island and the hotel itself. The hotel is super clean and looks brand new, the owners and staff very friendly and with lots of great tips.
Unfortunately we stayed only 1 out of the 2 nights that we booked in this hotel due to a mix up with the reservation & " Booking" but the owner went the extra mile to find another solution for us.
Overall, very happy with our short stay, highly recommended.
Wow!!! What a find!!
Folegandros is the most amazing island. Looks stunning, not overrun like many of the other islands, everybody so helpful and friendly. Just how Greek islands used to be. Food options were amazing too. We stayed at the Antheia Hotel. What an amazing place. The host Lily was exceptional. The rooms were really nice. The hotel was really well located. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Hotel Antheia to anybody wishing to visit Folegandros
Gorgeous hotel, lots of thoughtful touches and very clean and comfortable. Location is great, my room had a balcony with a lovely view of the pool and the church on the hill.
The nespresso machine was great and all the facilities in the room were good.
Loved the decor and the art and the room was always cleaned to perfection.
Dimiti was a fantastic host, he personalised the stay and looked after me making me feel like I was a guest in his home.
This is a 10. Incredibly helpful and friendly staff. The hammock on the terrace in our room had broken and the replacement hammock had not arrived yet. The hotel went out of their way to borrow one from a friend so that our kids would have a hammock to use during our stay.
Also the front desk staff (Elena) and restaurant staff were so nice. the kids loved them.
Clean comfortable rooms and great location too!
Great stay at Ampelos with Theo and his wife. The place is much more beautiful than pictures show and it was great value for money. The view from the hotel is exceptional. Theo loves the solans and that shows in his passion for telling us about it. He was always on hand to help us with any questions we had or give us a lift if he could. Would love to go back.
Stunning hotel, incredible vistas and sunsets, our room was one of the highest in the town. Please ignore negative comments about the climb to the hotel - we likened it to 3 minutes on the stairmaster in the gym, it really was fine and very well located for Hora.
Beautiful and authentic Greek hotel with perfect location and lovely owners. Our room was facing the sunset and the balcony was simply perfect.
Good facilities and spacious room. Beautiful pool common area to sit for a drink
Proximity to the main village
Super nice and helpful staff (they come pick you up from and bring you back to the port)
Very good AC
The hotel is a charming complex of small houses
A lot of bathroom amenities provided
The room was really clean. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony. The hotel is very close to the center of Chora, about 3-5minutes walking. The owner has a small quiet dog that made our stay there more awesome!
Wonderful stay. The hotel is outside the town, but easy walk 5 mins. Exceptional views. Pick up and drop off at the port. Irene helped us rent a car to explore the island. Nice beds, AC worked great
I liked everything about the property! great location, clean, comfortable and the owners are very attentive to the guests!! a very nice family run hotel that I would highly recommend!!
The owner of the hotel was helpful. The view from the hotel was very nice. The facilities were well maintained. The hotel is well located and only steps away from the main town.
