The Ikion hotel is built only a few meters from the sea in Patitiri, in a peaceful and quiet area with magical views and lush green pine trees. We have just returned from a week at the Ikion Hotel. I spend several weeks every year on Alonnisos because I have a house in the Old Village. The owners are especially hospitable.. I have also toured the apartment suites and would highly recommend them. The island is perfect for people who want to walk and swim and read and relax
