Milos Island Travel Forum

Hi everybody..!! anybody knows the ferry line that leaves Pireus port in athens and gets Milos island.. im going next mid-september !! thanks in advance !!

Any good reccomendation for a good reasonable well located hotel (max E80) in Milos? which is the best neighborhood (close to beaches) to stay? thank you!

I would also like to ask if there is a good night life in Milos and if anyone of you can recommend a place to go.
I also need your help for accomodation. We have three places in mind: Villa notos, Santa Maria and Achivadolimni bungallows. Which one would you reccomend?
Thanks for your help.

Here's hoping someone can make up my mind. Me and my husband will be in Paros for 5 days and we have 3-4 days to spare b/4 going to Crete for 10 days. We were considering Milos as an option since paros and milos are both in the Cyclades. I have no doubt Milos has wonderful beaches but we were wondering what the night life was like and if this is an island were tourists go or greeks go for vacation?

Also wondering where would be the best location for hotel (we like the hustle and bustle; were from NYC) and if there is transportation from Paros to Milos?

Any regards would be greatly appreciated.

I am organizing my vacations of the next July to Milos and, after varied searches on web sites for how much pertain the lodging, I am undecided between three possible solutions: Seagull apartments or Villa Helios or Zac Marie. There it is someone in a position of to give me an advice? These structures find themselves near noisy disk-bars? Every your advice will be very precious for me.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
Can anyone recommend apartments or studios at Paliochori that have great views preferably close to the beach? Has anyone stayed at the Artemis Villas? Thanks, Bitsy

The Lonely Planet book for the Greek Islands says that to reach some of the best beaches in Milos you must take a boat tour which stops at some of them for a limited time. If we are not interested in visiting beaches with a group & would also prefer to be able to stake out one beach & stay there all day, are there secluded & beautiful beaches there reachable by foot or bike or rental car? Would it be recommended or make sense in this case to rent a car while we're there?

Thanks!

I'm unable to find schedules/times/fares for a hydrofoil (or any kind of boat for that matter) from Milos to Santorini. Could anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi,
We would like to visit the islands of Milos and Sifnos from Santorini in May 07.
Has anybody tried this? and if so is it feisable in 2 weeks? We would travel from Athens but the flights for us from our local airport are too expensive! Santorini for us is a better option.
Thank you for any help.

I will be travelling to Milos in September 06 but wanted to know what the best way to Pollonia would be from Milos airport. I'll have luggage with me so it will probably be best to get a taxi unless anyone has any other ideas. If I go by taxi what should I expect to pay?

Any suggestions?
and thanks very much

Hi, its amazing what info you have here :-)
i have 2 questions:
1. we (my boyfriend and me) leave to Milos on the 25th of August and stay for 6-10 days. We need a (how surprising) cheap accomodation. Is there any chance that we find a clean nice room around 40 euro? (no kitchen required, only aircond., fridge and a double bed).
2. if this is impossible, we would take our car, and the live in the camping. Any info about the camping? does it have shadow, clean bathroom and warmwater?
And the most important: are the roads good or we have the chance to break our car on the way to the small beaches? are the roads asfalth roads or full of small rocks? is it dangerous or is it absolutely ok?

thanks a lot :-)

ther is on the island any internet point? maybe in adamas?
