Hydra is a beautiful small Greek island. The town will get busy in peak season, but as we were out of season it was perfect. The harbor is very pretty with lots of tavernas to try (the best ones are in the lanes behind the harbor).
The path along the coast is beautiful and gives access to a few beaches. Head beyond Kamini for the better ones. Sea taxi from town will drop you off, although we walked everywhere. Vlychos and Kamini Beaches were our favorites.
The walking is stunning, especially the Western route anti-clockwise taking you to the top and monastery. Hydra-Trails gives clear maps and directions.
Food was lovely and lots of classic Greek cuisine. Fresh fish also fab with lots of restaurants offering a catch of the day. Wander out of the main town for some real treats. Kodylenia and Christina were both lovely and near villa. In the main town our favorites were Kryfo Limano and Kai Kremmidi. EU Bakery had some lovely treats and Manna Restaurant for proper Giros.
We loved the island for its relaxed vibe and slow pace.

Beautiful town to decompress and slow down.
Beautiful town to decompress and slow down. There’s not that much to do but that’s the beauty of it. Anywhere you eat will be excellent or at the very least above par so there’s no disappointment there.
Definitely my favourite of all my destinations so far (minus the ferry experience - they always seem to run late)

Unusual island for Greece due to no cars, motorbikes allowed—we loved it. (Donkeys and mules carry heavy loads) Small city of Idra totally walkable. Fantastic small restaurants there especially a block or so away from the port. Expect to pay more for water taxis to get to other parts of the island. Be sure to visit nearby cultural-art focused centers/museums. 2-3 days max unless you want quiet and privacy to write your novel or compose music. Clothing and souvenir shops are much more expensive than 10 islands we have visited over the years. No airport also keeps tourist # lower than other islands. We saw many families with young children, couples of all ages, and single travelers taking in the island’s beauty. There are no beautiful sandy beaches to enjoy, though. Mandraki, the one sandy beach had dull brown sand, super calm water and appeared to be “owned” by a 5-star resort. There were no signs that this beach was public. But you can go through the resort gate and buy something to eat or drink. It’s 2km NE of the port. The walking path is paved and has beautiful seaside views, including the large golden Apollo wind-spinner. Very romantic island.

This was a great place to visit in April for a quiet and relaxing vacation. There were plenty of tourist in the port area but we didn’t see many people in on the various walking trails on the island.
The beaches were small but beautiful. It was a little windy but the temperature was just right in the mid-day sun.
There were several topless bathers at the various beaches and few children.
The beaches have lots of slippery round rock near the shore so it is difficult to walk into the water. The water was clear and cool and the waves were mild.
I didn’t think much of the dining options in Hydra so we purchased fresh produce at the various grocers near the port.
The tap water is sourced from desalination plants so make sure to get plenty of bottled water (to drink) from the local grocery stores.
They really do utilize donkeys to carry heavy loads from the port. They often leave a mess on the walkways so make sure to watch your step.
The island has beautiful inland views and ocean views. The elevation change is mild so it is easy to take long walk through the various trails.
We had no trouble traveling to and from the island. The port is small so it is easy to find your ferry.
We loved our stay in Hydra. It was just the relaxing trip that we were seeking.

Fun island to explore. No cars allowed!
Fun island to explore. No cars allowed! We only had1 night there due to our itinerary, so this fit the bill due to close proximity to Athens. Had a great sunset dinner at Sunset Grill. Tour of the Lazaros Koundouriotis Mansion was awesome, as was home of artist Tetsis.

Hydra is a wonderful place for scenery-gazing and long quiet walks (soundtrack: goat bells, cocks crowing and the occasional donkey bray) - past the monasteries, to the peak of Mount Eros, or across and a scramble down to Limnioniza Beach which we had entirely to ourselves... Our two best meals were both at Techne, where the food is technically accomplished, harmonious and subtle. Jeff Koons' Apollo Wind Spinner at the Deste Project Space Slaughterhouse is a fun diversion on the road to Mandraki. And the many cats seem by and large in good health and well tended thanks to Hydra Ark.
This hotel is a beautiful, quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the bigger Greek cities. The hotel is stunningly beautiful, and the rooms are large with comfortable beds. Every member of the staff is friendly and helpful. They can make recommendations of various things to do around the island. The breakfast room is gorgeous, and the food is delicious. The courtyard is a lovely little place to end the night with a drink, watching the stars overhead. I highly recommend staying here while in Hydra.
It was a very good experience, I really enjoyed my stay there. The location is perfect, facing the port and on the same level as the arrival from the boats, which means not carrying suitcases up the alleys and stairs of Hydra. The hotel itself is small but very nice, the room is perfectly clean, with a good size, comfortable bed and good shower. I did not get a room with balcony, but there’s a communal balcony where I could sit down and enjoy the view. The staff is also very cordial and kind.
The historic estate is a truly wonderful getaway. The garden is a beautiful and calm place to chill, have breakfast or drinks. The rooms are really well equipped and have really good air conditioning which kept us cool in 32degree heat. The host Andreas is absolutely amazing. Also the accommodation is really easy to get to from the port. A lot of hotels in Hydra are higher up on the mountain and it’s difficult to get your suitcases up there. This is NOT the case here.
Absolutely fabulous Greek island destination & this boutique hotel was an absolute gem! The hotel was nicely positioned with a short stroll from the port with donkeys available to carry bags. The staff were most a helpful and the breakfasts were exceptional, we looked forward to what was served each morning. We plan to return to Hydra in the future & will stay at the same hotel.
This charming boutique hotel is located right off the harbor in an old stone building. However the rooms are modern and updated with a simple charm. Our host was gracious and patiently waited for our late arrival at the harbor and ushered us to our rooms. No breakfast is provided but there are several cafes right on the harbor walk that serve excellent breakfasts.
Very nice and friendly staff! All information you need they are always prompt to help you. Location is excellent! The breakfast is delicious and you can have a unique atmosphere at the beautiful garden. If you want to have a special experience, combined with history, romanticism, luxury and tranquility in Hydra I highly recommend the Orloff Boutique Hotel.
It was very homey and reminded me of back when I would come to Greece as a child. From the old style shutters and windows to having to use the room key to turn in the electricity. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating, the hotel was very close to the port and there was a line of restaurants right outside of the hotel.
Beautiful boutique hotel. Attentive staff. Spacious rooms. Close to bars and restaurants. Hydra town is steep and there are a lot of steps up to the hotel, but if you are reasonably fit and hire a mule to take your luggage up to and down from the hotel, you will have no problem.
It was our favorite apartment during our visit in Greece. Very spacious, clean with beautiful balcony. Excellent location. The host met us at the pier and helped us with our luggage. Every morning he would bring a fresh bread. Would definitely recommend it.
We loved everything in Hydra Icons. Starting with Ioannis support and gentleness, and ending with a beautiful hotel, super comfortable room, with daily cleaning service, great views, an artistic touch and, cherry on top, the sweetest cat of the island - Gina.
Wonderful 3 room guesthouse that functions like a small boutique hotel. Crazy beautiful bathroom, comfortable bed, nice courtyard and high touches like wine, coffee and snacks in your room. Perfect location- easy walk from the harbor.
Lovely small family hotel , easy to get to from the port, The family who run hotel were welcoming and told us where to visit on our trip. I loved the breakfast every morning, it was different every day and was always delicious .?
We had a wonderful stay at Hydroussa Hotel Hydra. The staff were very helpful and kind, our room was nicely laid out with a very comfortable bed and the breakfast buffet was great too with a lovely courtyard for eating.
It is a beautiful, centrally located hotel that is nearly furnished. The public areas seem to have antique decor, the rooms are modern and the patio was lovely! We enjoyed breakfast each morning.
Filenia is an old house of Hydra adapted to a small, traditional hotel. The visitor has the unique chance to experience the old times atmosphere going back to the 18th and 19th centuries.
