Guest name: amyjemesouviens, Louisiana
Guest type: Honeymoon
stayed in Jul 2008
Well, we had no hotel and met some travelers on the ferry who told us about this hotel. So, we followed them off the ferry and found the representative for Petinos. He called and got us a room on the spot, and we were surprised. Our room had an excellent view of the sea, was comfortable, beautiful, and roomy with all of the extras. Breakfast was delicious every morning and was included in the excellent price! This hotel was a wonderful experience and everyone was friendly!

Modest, pleasant hotel away from Mykonos Town
Guest name: velevele, Illinois
I stayed in this hotel for one night in Sept 2007. (It was supposed to be three nights, but bad weather and cancelled ferries intervened.)
This is not the Petinos Beach hotel, but the Hotel Petinos, a little ways off the beach.
Positives:
– The hotel is very close to the beach, a walk of just a minute or two. However, it’s a typically congested and not very large beach and, in my opinion, not very pleasant (not the hotel’s fault, of course!). I am really not a fan of the beach-chairs-lined-up-in-rows system and stayed away from the beach after I saw it.
– I had a lovely small blue-painted balcony with a sea view (I was in a single).
– The hot water temperature and pressure in the shower were both very good.
– The bed was firm but comfortable for me, although not as clean as I would have liked (see below).
– The room size was reasonable for a single, and the room was attractively painted in pale blue.
– The hotel grounds are also attractive, with the typical Cycladean architecture.
– The hotel staff was friendly and helpful.
– The bus to Mykonos Town (Chora) stops right outside the hotel.
– There’s a little mini-mart right by the hotel, where you can buy bus tickets (you can’t buy them on the bus).
– The hotel was quiet, and I didn’t hear any noise from the street or beach, even though my room faced the main road.
Other factors/negatives:
– The bed had a little sand in it (just a few grains, and no, it didn’t come from me!).
– Amazingly enough, I didn’t use the A/C here so I can’t comment on it.
– The reading lights weren’t bright enough for me.
– The shower was VERY tiny (about 2.5' x 2.5'); as I’m 5'10" I felt I could barely turn around in it.
– Although the public bus stop is nearby, this bus can get VERY crowded, and at some times of day it is not unusual to have to wait for the next bus.
– If you want to be at the heart of all the action in Mykonos Town, this hotel is not for you.
Summary:
I personally would have preferred to stay in Mykonos Town, rather than
a bus ride away, and would do this if I returned to Mykonos in the future. However, if you would like to be away from the action in town,
this pleasant, friendly, attractive hotel might serve your needs very well. It is, however, a modest hotel, so if you would like 4-star or better luxury, I would also suggest looking elsewhere.

Guest name: rieserat, Washington, DC
Hotel was great. The room was comfortable for three of us. The staff were all pleasant. Internet access was available for a fee. Short walking distance to the beach. Beach chairs were available for about 5 euros. Excellent restaurant, Nikos, on the beach. The bus to Mykonos town picks you up right outside the hotel.
