“amazing stay! definitely recommend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2010

We recently spent 4 nights here and it was absolutely faultless. Located high up on the hill, you have the best view down to Mylopotas Beach of anywhere on the island. The rooms are incredible value for money and are very modern, with new bathrooms, nice marble floors, french doors with big flowing curtains that open up onto your own balcony with table and chairs. Pool area is also very modern and clean, with chill out music playing and a full bar. The guy manning the bar was really friendly and we had the best cocktails there out of anywhere on the island! Much quieter at the Hotel and Spa than down at the Village, which with the free shuttle we visited regularly. It's close enough to walk down if you don't want to wait for the shuttle.

If you want to be close to it all but just enough away to have a nice quiet stay with a bit of luxury compared to the rest - then this is without a doubt the best. Staff were so friendly and they were on top of everything in an instant. Breakfast was the best we'd had on all of the Greek Islands, big selection and buffet style, served inside our out with beautiful views.

Definitely recommend a stay here and we would come back again in an instant.

“Great, Clean, Great Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2009

I never got around to reviewing Far Out Hotel and Spa... but here's my 2 cents. I travelled there with Contiki. I found the hotel to be very clean. Great views from my balcony and the beautiful pool and bar. The Hotel sits up on the hill on a road of a main bus route between the main Ios town and Mylopotas beach. Both are also within walking distance for the beach during the day and the bars at night. The laundry service offered is good. Used the Ios Village Hotel down by the beach for lunch, drinks and a swim in the pool. Breakfast was good, with typical european selections. I would definitely consider this hotel if i go back to the Greek Islands.

“Good for Value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 August 2009

The resort is perfect for backpackers on a budget.
They advertise it correctly- you really do have everything you need down there. It is easy to spend days without realising you havent left the campsite.. The food in the restaurant is lovely and affordable and the staff there are lovely as are the bar staff.
The is little room between the tents and the showers were often unclean, crowded and broken. Also it is loud during the day if you like sleeping, but we were well warned about this before we stayed there and enjoyed the lively atmosphere!!
All in all a good week spent in far out!

“Great views but rooms could be cleaner”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2009

The hotel wasn't that bad. We were there for 2 nights, but they definitely could have done a much better job of cleaning the rooms. There were bugs everywhere and I know it's common, especially if you have doors to an outside porch, but if housekeeping took the extra few minutes to clean the bugs in the bathroom, it would have made a huge difference. The pool is nice and they staff was very friendly. It's a hike down to the beach or into town though. You have to call a taxi or wait for the bus. It's a fairly inexpensive place, so I guess you get what you pay for. Overall it was ok.

“Great Location and atmosphere!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2009

The location is perfect, right on the beach! And th town is just a quick and cheap bus ride away, or a 20 min. walk. The atmosphere is great for traveling backpackers and the bar has very affordable drinks. Highly recommend!!
