Giannoulis Hotel
Central Cycladic hotel 500 metres from the port
About this hotel
Giannoulis sits at the heart of Adamas village, close enough to the port to catch an early ferry on foot and within 700 metres of the beach for a quick swim before or after breakfast. The whitewashed, blue-shuttered architecture matches the village around it, and Plaka's clifftop caldeira views are a manageable four-kilometre trip for a sunset excursion worth planning into any stay here. Family rooms make this a practical base for a Milos week, and every room includes air conditioning, a private bathroom and free WiFi as standard, with a tour desk on site for booking boat trips and car hire, and a safety deposit box available for anyone carrying valuables between ferries.

- Near the port
Our take
This suits families and travellers who want to be in the middle of Adamas, walking to both the port and the beach without a car ever leaving its parking spot. The central position means more village noise than the outskirts hotels, worth weighing for anyone who sleeps lightly. Couples chasing a dramatic caldeira view from the room itself should book toward Plaka instead, since Giannoulis offers village-level convenience rather than a clifftop panorama.
- ✓Walk the 500 metres to the port for the ferry, no taxi needed with light luggage
- ✓Drive or taxi to Plaka for sunset, four kilometres is a short trip worth the caldeira view
- ✓Book a beach visit within the 700-metre range early, before the day heats up

Why guests love itEverything in Adamas felt reachable from here, the port in a few minutes, the beach in under ten, and the village shops close enough for every errand of the week. We drove out to Plaka one evening for the caldeira sunset, a short trip that felt worth the detour and one of the trip's clear highlights. Rooms were comfortable and clearly built for families, plenty of space for gear without feeling like a squeeze by day three. A solid, central choice for a Milos base that we'd happily book again.
