When we arrived at the Polikandia, my travel companion was suffering from Covid, and Dimitri and his family could not have been nicer or more helpful. They even brought... read more a sandwich to my friend in his room. Meanwhile, the beautiful pool area and location just outside the picturesque town of Hora with its many shops and restaurants kept me happy and entertained.

The rooms are very comfortable, and the beds are superb -- they are firm, but a soft mattress topper is available immediately upon request.

Of all the places we stayed in Greece, I will remember the Polikandia most fondly.

  We stayed here as a group while visiting the island for a holiday. They could not have been nicer. No request was impossible and they were even able to source... read more us a pram after one of our group had lost their baby's pram. Hire cars were provided to us so we could explore the island as well. The rooms were clean and comfortable with great amenities included and the staff were fantastic. one of the group summed it up beautifully; its was like staying with yia yia

  A really wonderful hotel, very quiet and yet very close to the town square - A really wonderful hotel. Gorgeous pool area which looks beautiful in the evening with the lighting. Lovely plants and a fantastic artistic feel to the place. Very peaceful and yet... read more just a few minutes walk to the main town square. Family run place and very helpful staff .We had one of the slightly larger rooms with a lounge area and a separate bedroom.

  An Oasis on a magical island - Dimitri and the staff at Pollikandia do a wonderful job making this oasis stand out as a wonderful place to stay on Folegandros. From the level of service to the... read more beautiful pool and patio area, Pollikandia is somewhere I would not hesitate to stay at again.

  You just want to come back time and again - We've returned yet again to our most chilled place to come on holiday. The Polkandia is a family run hotel, they can never do enough for us, we are... read more always made so welcome, part of the family. Dmitry ensures all of the planning and logistics for our trip are well taken care of, Yannis, Anna, Arula and Stelios & Gloria are amazing, unfortunately we missed Maria this year. The place is spotless clean, breakfast great & nothing is too much trouble. Picking us up from the helipad when times had changed last minute was no issue, ensuring all guests were looked after during sudden torrential rain, organising cars, recommending great places to go. Truly amazing and we will be back next year.

  A wonderful hotel in a beautiful place. - We recently stayed at the Polikandia as a base for our nieces wedding at the Church of Panagia. The hotel is in an ideal location just on the entrance into... read more Chora and perfect for the walk to the church.From picking us up at the port to final checkout, Dimitri and all his family were exceptional hosts, so friendly and welcoming. It is beautiful place to stay and I have no reservations in recommending the Polikandia for anybody visiting Folengandros.

  My wife and I visited Folegandros for the first time and spent a wonderful 6 nights at Polikandia Hotel. Stelios and Dimitris made us feel so welcome, the property was... read more the prettiest on the island, it was kept meticulously clean and had magnificent views to Panagia Church up on the mountain. They had the best position on the island, central to everything, a beautiful pool with gardens, and their breakfast was one of the most delicious I’ve ever had on any Greek island. Don’t bother looking at other hotels in Folegandros. This is truly the only hotel you should consider.

  Cozy traditional Greek hospitality  - Centrally located in Chora (imo you don't want to stay anywhere else on the island), with a sparkling pool, shaded lounge areas, thoughtful outdoor hot shower (you'll appreciate this as... read more you kill time after checkout before your ferry arrives), spotless tho smallish rooms (we were in room 19), Polikandia is a top spot to stay in Folegandros. It doesn't have sexy IG in Greece vibes w sleek furniture and killer views but it has traditional charm and warm Greek hospitality. The breakfast buffet was above average and the cappuccino freddos I had poolside the best I've ever had (prev record held by one I had in Ostuni Italy!).

  Polikandia was a great find - We had wonderful stay at Polikandia. Dimitris is front of house and was great at making us feel welcome and looked after. We enjoyed the complimentary transit service from port... read more to hotel and back on arrival and departure. We took two pool-side rooms for a family of 5 and appreciated the immediate view up to the Church of Panagia being able to take a few steps to the water and loungers. We were there at the height of summer, but it never felt too busy in the hotel. The breakfast spreads were good and the access to adjacent car rental parking was convenient for beach trips. The location of hotel is just great for access to the beautiful Chora and all of its delights. We would have liked to have stayed longer than 4 nights.

  A total gem - We had two rooms . One for us and one for our daughters ( one is age 23 ) . This place is incredible . The rooms are comfortable and... read more dark and quiet which is exactly what you want in the heat . The pool was divine , never too crowded , and the walk into town was seconds away . Breakfast was lovely and host dimitri was accommodating in every way . A total find and we will be back .

  Picture perfect stay at Polikandia! - We stayed 2 nights at the Polikandia in August 2023. It was our first visit to Folegandros and the perfect introduction and location to a beautiful island and town.
We... read more were provided free transport to the hotel from the port, which is a wonderful service and the only hotel that provided this for free during our 2 week trip to Greece and the Islands.
On arrival the host Dimitris have us a full tour of the hotel and it’s idyllic gardens and surrounds, before showing us to our room. We were delighted to have a room with a bougainvillea clad balcony overlooking the pool area, gardens and straight up to the Church of Panagia above the town.
Our room and bed were very comfortable, with every corner of the room well thought out, well equipped and you can tell so much love has gone into the design and upkeep of the rooms and hotel.
The location of the hotel is ideal, located at the start of Chora town and an easy walk to all its attractions. I wish we had more time in this town as there are so many delicious restaurants to try and we simply couldn’t fit them all in!
The hotel also offers a very reasonably priced buffet breakfast, and also snacks & drinks available from the bar throughout the day.
Another added bonus was the tap with drinkable water beside the pool area, which meant we were able to reduce our plastic usage during our stay on Folegandros!
There is also a rooftop area with a great view of the town and surrounds, perfect for sunset.
We were so happy with our stay at Polikandia and hope we can return to Folegandros again some day, and will spend much longer next time!

  Magical stay at Polikandia Folegandros. Perfect hotel for the island. - Perfect location. easy walk to the Chora. Great hotel with all the amenities. Accommodation, Pool area and views were exceptional. The staff were friendly, and from the time we arrived... read more on the island and were picked up from the port to the time we were dropprd off, every thing was perfect.

  It was the best hotel for multiple reasons. The place is just perfect, the location just a footstep from the magnific Chora, Panagia Church,
the place... read more is soooo clean, the pool, the landscape is soooo beautiful and to keep the last the owner Stalios and Dimitris are the BEST EVER. Anything you need they will find. We rented the car from them and were able to explore this Beautiful island. The only negative side was that we had to leave. Wish we could stayed longer. Definitely want to go back ❤️❤️❤️

  Island warmth and hospitality and excellent value! - I used TripAdvisor to make an informed decision about lodging in Folegandros and I am pleased to report that the glowing reviews for the Polikandia hotel are well-deserved. Husband and... read more wife team Dimitris and Roula are warm, friendly and kind. They will make you feel welcome and comfortable throughout your stay. The garden/pool courtyard which the hotel is centered around is peaceful and beautifully maintained with colorful flowers and greenery. My son and I swam in the pool every day. Rooms are comfortable, there is AC if needed, in-room refrigerators, and firm mattresses (which I prefer—though Dimitris has special pads available if you want something softer). The location is excellent. You are steps away from the center of the Chora, close to the Panagia Church trail, a short walk from the bus station, and nearby multiple travel/transportation offices that make planning activities or renting vehicles super convenient. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again in the future.

  Exceptional and unique experience.  - Warm welcome, personal approach and very good service, these are the words that fully characterize this place.
Thanks to Dimitris and the rest of the staff for a nice stay,... read more I hope we will be back again!
