Hoteles en Sifnos
A Cycladic island in the western Aegean known for whitewashed hilltop villages, a pottery and ceramics tradition, and a network of footpaths linking Kamares port, Apollonia's chora and the coastal villages of Platis Gialos and Faros.
Sifnos pairs a working port at Kamares with a hilltop chora at Apollonia and a scattering of quieter coastal villages, from the resort strip at Platis Gialos to the secluded bay at Vathi and the monastery landmark at Chrisopigi. Hotels here range from simple family-run pensions and beachfront aparthotels to a handful of boutique and five-star properties, with sea views appearing even on the inland ridge villages thanks to the island's elevated geography. Whichever village you choose, the short distances between them mean day trips to the others are easy to fit into a single stay.
