Donkeys clip-clop along cobblestone streets in this car-free island paradise where time seems permanently set to 'leisurely.' The horseshoe harbour buzzes with cafés where locals debate politics over strong coffee while artists sketch the scene. Explore the Lazaros Koundouriotis Historical Mansion for a glimpse into seafaring wealth, then cool off at Avláki beach where crystal waters meet smooth pebbles. The Ecclesiastic and Byzantine Museum houses religious treasures in a former monastery. For the best sunset views, hike to Prophet Elias Monastery atop the island's highest point. When hunger strikes, harbour tavernas serve fresh octopus caught that morning, best enjoyed with ouzo and unhurried conversation.

Hydrea Exclusive Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is perfectly situated on a corner of the port opposite where the boats come in. The hotel is elevated above the sidewalk and the terrace overlooks the port. It’s tremendously situated. The staff is unbelievably helpful starting with the front desk receptionist who is so helpful. She goes above and beyond. The cleaning staff also serves as the cooking staff and they are also so nice and great. The gentleman Nikos who helps at breakfast is also wonderful. We absolutely loved our stay here. We would definitely recommend staying here and might come back ourselves."

"Very nice hotel, would recommend"

Bellevalia Hydra

10/10 Excellent

"We had the absolute privilege of staying at Bellevalia Hydra, and it exceeded every expectation. The location is simply breathtaking, the rooms are beautifully designed, the views are spectacular, and the food is exceptional. What truly sets this hotel apart, however, is its incredible staff. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and every member of staff went above and beyond to make our stay genuinely unforgettable. It’s almost impossible to single people out because every single person was outstanding, but a special thank you must go to Anna, who went out of her way to make our stay extra special. Stephanous and his wonderful restaurant team, Sergio and Christos, delivered such incredible food and warm hospitality that we didn’t want to dine anywhere else on the island. Thank you also to Renata at reception, Anthony and Paulos at the bar, Alessio, who found us the perfect spot on the beach every day, and Jacob, our friendly water taxi guide, whose warm welcome always put a smile on our faces. Bellevalia Hydra is so much more than a beautiful hotel, it’s a place where genuine hospitality makes you feel completely at home. We leave with wonderful memories and can’t wait to return."

Alexandra Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"First night I found a big bug, second night another big bug on the ceiling that fell on the bed and made a big stain. I had to put a towel on top of the stain to I could sleep on the bed. I also found some dead bugs under the bed, I had a room facing the street and at night there was so much noise from people going by. Other than that it was ok and the owner was responsive, but didn’t do anything about the bugs."

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Hydra

Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Hydra is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower.

Visitors can explore museums, enjoy the scenic beaches, embark on hiking adventures, stroll along the picturesque port, and appreciate the splendid cathedral. This timeframe offers great value for money, allowing travellers to immerse themselves in the rich history and natural beauty of Hydra while keeping costs manageable.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover the best accommodation deals in Hydra, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals section on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates as your travel date approaches.
