Far Out Village Hotel

Hospitality

The staff were incredible and made you feel right at home. Location was pristine. Most beautiful sunset I’ve seen. You’re comfortable entertained and taken care of.

Everything is an up charge. €5 to use the gym that closes for 3 hours from 2-5pm was wild.

The best is the location right by Mylopotas beach and the pool area.

There are many downsides:Room: Drawers were dirty with hair, 3 lights were off and safety box locked upon arrival.There is only 1 plug in the room and 1 in the bathroom.The bathroom is tiny even for a single occupancy.Old fashioned room and expensive for 1 person, they don't offer single accommodation, I'm surprised about the solo travelers comments.It's not clear which areas can u use, reception not accommodating.There is a daily cleaning service, which is convenient however they change towels and bed sheets every day, - even untoiched towels- which I find excessive, no ecological nor good for the economy of the hotel. The Beach club next door belonging to same company plays loud electronic music till late every day, it looks that is on site Breakfast finishes 10.30am, by 1015am there are no more omeletes...and they just said is over instead of replenish...The service at the restaurant/pool area is awful.While seating by the pool, nobody approached during the entire afternoon, there are many servers around but no one looked in 3 hours.Basically you need to stand up and ask for food & drink.Gym is payable, even if I asked before arrival, they have never informed this is advance.The ambience is full of group of teenagers and younger in their 20s, very loud.As a solo traveler of 45, I would not come back here.

Location: The hotel is right next to Mylopotas Beach, which is a major plus for beach lovers and easy access to the seaside.

Cleanliness and maintenance: Cleaning was not up to standard. I noticed spider nets hanging from the ceiling, which made the room feel neglected and uncomfortable.Hygiene concerns: There were unsettling observations about toiletries being refilled with what seemed like dish soap. This is not acceptable and raises serious hygiene and safety concerns.Odors: In the afternoon and evening, there was a sewage smell that permeated the room and common areasRoom quality: The room was quite dark, and the only way to get light was to leave the door open. The lighting and overall setup felt inadequate.Facilities: The room was poorly equipped. The small fridge didn’t provide enough space, there were not enough electrical outlets, and lighting throughout the room was insufficient.Breakfast: The breakfast variety was extremely limited—bread, yogurt, boiled eggs, and an oven omelet, with no apparent variety or hot options. The 10:30 am cutoff felt inflexible and rushed.Value: Considering the elements above, the price felt overpriced. There was also an additional charge for transport to the port, which added to the sense of poor value.

Pool and location were good

The description wasn't honest. The hotel is next doort to a beach/ night club that meant there is very loud music from about 2pm to 11pm every day. Our room backed onto it, and you could feel the windows vibrate. The description didnt say anything about this. Dont book here if you have young children or if you want peace.

I enjoyed proximity to the beach and the ability to easily catch the bus into town

The pathways at night are not lit properly. When we were showed to our room we had to go down a dark path with our luggage and I ended up tripping and busting my knee. Also we didn't know we had to book a day in advance transportation back to ferry. It seems like that should have been shared when we checked in.

Mylopotas Beach is perfect. Far Out offers sunbeds on the beach, and a lovely pool which was basically unused as the beach is lovely. Rooms are basic but comfortable. Breakfast was good.We visited in September missing the summer “party” crowd … perfect for us.

Everything was just great.

Absolutely perfect location, neat, clean rooms, friendly staff, descent breakfast. Would definitely go back again.

The pool and beach with plenty of sun lounges.

The music! This is the 2nd time I've stayed here and I still remember the wonderful Brazilian and soft music they had last year. This time it was all just thumping synthetic music that just pounded all day and night. Very annoying!

We had 3 rooms and they were all good with good sized terraces and very quiet. The staff were wonderful, and so helpful and sympathetic when we had a medical issue to deal with. The pool is lovely and so is the beach opposite. We were there 9 September and a few restaurants had already closed for the season but there was still enough choice. There was also a regular bus into nearby Chora which stops just outside the hotel.

The mattresses were the only downside. They need upgrading. There is music playing around the pool but it was not too loud.

It is a perfect location!! Right on the beach, stunning views and pool. Cannot recommend enough

The property is very convenient to everything.

The breakfast was very simple, the bathroom sink was very small.

Really nice atmosphere, right in front of the beach. Beautiful pool. Everyday there is music/djs playing. Staff are really nice as well.

Overall it was amazing value for money. The pictures don’t give the hotel any justice, it’s much nicer in real life. The staff were excellent. The hotel is located on the beach with private sunbeds which are included free of charge but you have to buy something from the bar which we did anyway. The Carmel cocktail- sweet kisses was to die for. Thanks Paul! The hotel net door was part of the same complex. It had a shop on site, even a piercing and tattoo studio. Plus the DJs at both hotels were amazing. They also had a fab line up of world class DJs at the hotel next door which is pretty amazing if you ask me.

The breakfast was basic but that was to be expected for the price we paid. Would have been nice if there was some veggies available, like tomatoes, cucumbers and olives.

Excellent place to stay, the floor of the room was dirty though, it was very sandy

Sandy floor, small bathroom

Rooms are nice and comfortable.

Staff is friendly but they tend to be new so they do not know everything about the place and cannot help you sometimes.

Good breakfast, nice and comfortable rooms

Expensive bar at the pool that serves them in throwaway plastic cups (at 14€/cocktail). The least they could do is a reusable plastic cocktail glass. The target public is 16 year old Australians, we felt a bit out of place. It was hard to socialize if you were not part of a group.We felt ignored a lot at the beach club and waited 2 hours for our pizza. The waitress added a tip to the bill when we said we didn’t want to give any and quickly ran away without giving us a ticket. She clearly did this on purpose and we felt scammed.The hotels beach club has a minimum spend and entrance fee starting from friday, when we had to pay this we would not find it worth it.Taxi needed every night if you want to party, luckily it is cheap.

Fantastic location , lovely room and next to the superb beach club with pool
