Captain Yiannis

Beautiful location and the hotel’s grounds are lovely and spotlessly clean. The staff are friendly and the rooms comfortable. We had a Junior suite and would recommend. Thank you to all the staff. Ithaca is a wonderful place and we enjoyed every moment.

The location is perfect. The pool, pool area and reception are immaculate and give a good first impression. However our apartment (bungalow style) was dated and tired, and requires some investment and maintenance. The bathroom was quite cramped and needed a good scrub. There’s also a lack of storage in the bedroom - no chest of drawers or dressing table. Area outside the apartment, although with a lovely sea view, is a bit unkempt. It’s a shame because with a bit of TLC to bring it up to scratch and a bit more thought towards the comfort of guests, it could be superb.

My wife and I have just returned from a weeks holiday in Ithaca at the Captain Yiannis Hotel in Vathy. We had a fabulous time and the hotel was perfect for us. All of the staff were so helpful and the facilities at the hotel were great. A lovely room, simple but adequate breakfast each day by the pool with lovely views of all the boats in the harbour and a short walk from the centre of Vathy which had a great selection of restaurants and shops. Such a peaceful and unspoilt place to visit and our Aegean and Iolian holiday rep. was lovely also. If you have the chance to try somewhere different then we would recommend you go. We will certainly visit again.

I am staying here for 2 weeks and am at the end of my 1st week. What an amazing spot. Lovely location on outskirts of Vathy but easy walk into Vathy. Great view of harbour and surrounding hills. Well appointed room, very comfortable and housekeeping come very regularly. Nice pool. Breakfasts are simple but with really nice fresh fruit and yogurt- all I needed. Staff here are great - very welcoming and have been friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Stayed in room 4 would recommend.

Super holiday here. It is a quick taxi ride from the port. Ten minute walk to Vathi where you will find lots of tavernas and bars and shops and all that the harbour offers. The staff here are super friendly and helpful. We stayed in an apartment (looks like a bungalow) which was spacious and clean with all you need. Also a very comfy bed, safe and modern bathroom. We had a lovely veranda at the front with views to the entrance to the harbour - great for a drink before heading off for dinner! There is also a drying rack positioned by the back door and gets the evening sun. The breakfast is buffet style, it is all well presented and covered, and the breakfast tables have a really fabulous view! The pool area is very nice, comfy sun beds and clean pool - again with great views. There is a bar open serving drinks and a few snacks too. There is a very good taverna just a short walk along the waters edge if you turn right out of the hotel, also a couple of bars too. Great beaches are a car ride/taxi €10 ride away. Plenty to explore on the island. Great location and we were made to feel very welcome by all the staff.
