Althea Boutique Hotel - Adults Only

This is a perfect hotel for people like me and my wife who want to spend a quiet and relaxed vacation. First of all it is beautiful. Maria, the owner and manager, is an artist and the whole place's design reflects it. The rooms are large (45 sq. meter), very well equipped and comfortable. Everything is clean . The beds are big and soft, The shower provides hot water 24 hours a day. All the rooms face the sea and have large balconies where you can seat and relax watching the beautiful landscape and sipping a drink. There is an absolute feeling of privacy even though at the time there were many other guests. Breakfast is excellent, rich and different every day. Maria is also an outstanding advisor as for things to do and places to visit in Karpathos. The closest beach, which is sandy and good for swimming, is at 150 m' distance. It can be easily reached by foot or car driving. There you can find a few nice taverns and an axcellent cocktail bar (Pebble bar) which offers good music including live performances every friday.

Althea is the place to be!!! All is perfect and the breakfast is a five stars. We recommend this hotel for the hospitality of the staff , position and view . Surely we will back at Althea for the next vacation in Karpathos. If you are looking for a Quiet place , pls go there.

This was a great place to be at. The service was really good and the staff did a great job making all very comfortable. The rooms were nice, modern and were cleaned every day. The beautiful beach of Amoopi is just a few minutes away by foot. Do rent a car to get around the island. We enjoyed our stay so much, that we already booked our next trip for this October! Keep up the good work, Althea team!

We (a couple around 75) have stayed here for one week at the end of may 2023. The hotel is phantastigue. Each room is individuallY decorated and its very spacious. Maria is a great host and she cares about you like a mother. Also she is the soul of the business. In each room you will have a phantastic view over Ammoopi bay. 300 m to the beach. Breakfast is a dream and every day comes a new suprise. We highly recommend this place and the lovely people. I am handicapped and Maria did her best. She cared for a special stool for bathroom and gave us a barrierfree room. Thank you for that!

I agree with all the praise that other reviewers have offered. I will just mention a few things that others seem not to have mentioned. First, visitors should pay attention to the interesting collections throughout the property. At least in the main house there is a gate-and-door theme that Maria has deliberately curated. The walls are adorned with antique gates and doors and with artworks reproducing gates and doors or depicting gates and doors. Also there are many antique tools and farm implements placed around the property, such as antique threshers made of wood and sharp stones and an antique loom. Second, Amoopi has many good places to eat. A short walk from Althea is Demetrios‘ Fish Taverna, and bit further away are the Four Seasons and Esperida. Third, there are big, marked parking spaces immediately off the road (so no driving on narrow dirt roads, as at many places on the islands). Fourth, the air conditioner in our room worked very well and was very quiet. My wife and I have stayed in many hotels on Greek islands over the past twenty years. This one is one of the very best and the only one we have come back to.

We spent 2 weeks at the hotel and it was an amazing experience. A really beautiful boutique hotel. The owner Maria is the best at her job, very welcoming, friendly and always willing to advise you on the best of the island. The overall service was very good and Maria's family did a great job making everything very comfortable. The room was spacious, elegant and modernly decorated, with a large balcony with a wonderful view of the sea. The breakfast, although not a buffet, was very rich and tasty, prepared at that time with very pure local ingredients. It is very important that the hotel is very clean and the room was cleaned every day, which helps you to relax and enjoy your vacation. We really enjoy our stay at this hotel.

One week to the Althea hotel has been an amazing experience. Thanks to Maria for the ospitality and kindless. The room are very nice, confortable and with all you need for relax and other. The view from the terrace is fantastic and we have had a great moment to watch the see in the late afternoon with the spritz and the stars in the night. Don't lose the opportunity.

we stayed at Althea for a week and it truly was an exceptional experience. Maria went above and beyond our expectations, initiating us into the Karpathian lifestyle and tradition. The room was so stylish and luxurious. We were spoiled every morning with the amazing breakfast made with local and homemade products. We would definitely love to return soon and recommend Althea to couples and families travelling to Karpathos Thank you again Maria and team, you have made our holiday really special and one to remember

We have spent 10 fantastic days on this beautiful wild and original island: the pampering and accurate attention offered by our boutique hotel and the entire staff headed by Maria has made it unforgettable! The room, the venue and the services were always exceeding our expectations!! The tips Maria gave us on how to experience the best of the island have always met our desiderata and the days went by too quickly Thanks so much ❤️ We can’t wait to be back again The Michetti’s
