🇬🇷IOS - Firstly, Ios is iconically Cycladic. Dazzling white houses, blue-domed churches, endless summer sunshine, unbelievably clear blue sea, wonderful beaches, steep hills and sheer cliffs. Ios is also a party island. Thousands of young people flock here from all over the world knowing they can drink and dance all night, sleep all morning, sunbathe and swim on a gorgeous beach in the afternoon. All around the island are lovely sandy beaches and tiny little coves. There are busy beaches with sunbeds, sunshades, water sports and tavernas. There are others with no facilities at all - and some that fall comfortably between two extremes. The further away from the main town, the fewer visitors there are.

🍹Family friendly – and run by a friendly family – the Marcos Beach Hotel, in Mylopotas Bay, Ios, is close to a golden, sandy, Blue Flag-winning beach, the longest on the island at one kilometre from end to end. In a commanding hillside position overlooking the bay, the hotel benefits from a quiet location, but the tavernas, restaurants and nightlife are within walking distance, making this the perfect location. The coast is also a watersports hotspot, with opportunities for windsurfing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, scuba diving, and banana and tube rides, while pedal boats, canoes, kayaks and dinghies are available for hire. Consider a boat tour around the island or to the isle of Sikinos for a fun day out. There is also a roof garden offering another superb view – an especially romantic setting for couples as the moon rises over the bay. A short bus ride away is the livelier area of Chora, with more dining and nightlife options, narrow-stone paved streets, souvenir shops and markets, the church and high viewpoint of Panaghia Gremiotissa and ruins of a Venetian castle.
