Our stay at Doulos Phos The Ship Hotel was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Sleeping aboard a beautifully restored historic ship is a unique experience that you simply can’t find in an ordinary resort. The ship’s rich maritime heritage has been thoughtfully preserved while offering modern comfort, making the stay both memorable and relaxing. The hotel itself is highly rated by guests for its cleanliness, service, and distinctive character.
The room was comfortable, clean and well-maintained, with charming nautical touches that reminded us we were staying on a real ship. Every corner of the property felt full of history, yet never outdated. The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind from the moment we arrived.
Watching the sunset from there was absolutely breathtaking. The complimentary heritage tour was also well worth joining, giving us fascinating insights into the remarkable journey of this century-old vessel.
The staff were warm, welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. They were always ready to help with a smile, which made us feel genuinely well looked after. Breakfast was delicious providing a great start to each day.
However, one issue we encountered was the hot water supply in the shower. The hot water frequently ran out while we were showering, which was quite inconvenient and uncomfortable. This happened several times during our stay, so we hope the hotel can look into improving the consistency of the hot water supply.
One thing to note also, the hotel location has limited dining and shopping options within walking distance. It’s a perfect destination if you’re looking to disconnect, relax and enjoy the tranquil surroundings rather than a busy nightlife.
Overall, Doulos Phos offers far more than just accommodation—it delivers a unique experience filled with history, beautiful scenery and genuine hospitality. If you’re looking for a memorable getaway that’s different from the usual beach resort, this ship hotel is absolutely worth a visit.
