Set directly above the golden sweep of Mylopotas Beach, Ios Palace Hotel & Spa occupies one of the island’s most prominent positions, with uninterrupted views across the bay and immediate access to the shoreline below.
The property is arranged across stepped, whitewashed levels that follow the curve of the hillside, creating a layered layout that opens consistently towards the sea. Traditional Cycladic forms are present throughout, but are offset by more distinctive elements — transparent Kartell furnishings, coloured glass accents and sculptural details that introduce a more individual, design-led character.
Light dominates the interiors, with bright whites and soft greys forming a clean base, punctuated by colour and texture that shift subtly between spaces, giving the hotel a more expressive identity than its setting might suggest.
The 59 rooms and suites continue this approach, combining simple layouts with more unexpected design touches, including custom furnishings and poetry integrated into the interiors. Each room opens onto a private balcony, many with direct views across Mylopotas Bay.
Higher categories such as the Master Suite Sea View with Private Pool introduce more space and separation, with outdoor areas extending the living space towards the view.
Tomatini Restaurant sits alongside the main pool, serving Greek and Cycladic dishes built around local ingredients, while Tomatini Bar is known for its extensive margarita selection and a more animated atmosphere as the day progresses.
Three pools are set across different levels of the property, each with a distinct setting — from the central pool with underwater music to quieter upper terraces positioned for a more secluded atmosphere. The beach sits directly below, with Ios Chora within easy reach for evenings beyond the hotel.
Positioned at the highest point of the property, the spa combines treatment rooms, wellness facilities and a fitness space, all oriented towards wide views across the island and sea.
With direct access to Mylopotas Beach and walking distance to Ios Chora, the location places both the island’s main beach and its centre within immediate reach, without compromising on outlook or position.
