Nikoletta’s place is absolutely perfect, and Nikoletta herself is an incredible host. She is prompt, helpful, and truly cares about her guests. I discovered this quickly when my ferry from Santorini arrived two hours late, and Nikoletta and her husband picked me up at the port at 1am in their own car. Her hospitality combined with light crowds, low prices, and world class beaches make Ios the most highly underrated island of the Cyclades.
