Absolutely lovely. Panos and Christina are extremely lovely hosts. The rooms & property are very clean. Nothing extravagant but a very lovely little place to lay one’s head after being at the beach a simple walk across the street. Sifis provides beach towels and they have lounge chairs on beach that you can use for free if you tell the staff you are staying with Sifis. The easy to walk to restaurants are delicious and Panos/Christina will gladly make excellent recommendations. We came with our two kids (ages 14 & 11) and because of the proximity to shops, beach and restaurants- we had no worry letting them go off on their own. We only just checked out of Sifis today and I am already hoping to return next year. I will absolutely arrange to stay at Sifis. Thanks!

The staff were awesome and very understanding of a whiney puppy. You can't beat the location, literally across the street from the beach with great food options nearby. The only thing that brings this review down is the beds. The beds were horrible, it was like trying to sleep on a very hard box spring with no mattress. If nothing else, a hotel should really invest in great beds.

Proximity to the sea a great asset. Services are basic but adequate. You are left to your own devices. What was outstanding for me was the warmth of the owners. That was fabulous.

Sejour agréable

Panos nous a accueillis très gentiment et s'est montré très serviable, disponible et souriant. Le studio est idéalement placé, à 20m de la plage et la nuit, c'est calme. Le seul bémol, c'est la douche non isolée du reste de la salle de bains, on met de l'eau partout.

Perfect Paleohora

Our stay in Sifis Studios was fantastic. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment which had 3 balconies all with sea views facing the setting sun. The accommodation is spacious, clean and the owner, Panagiotis, is a perfect gentleman. We would recommend staying here to anyone.
