Patmos Aktis, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Greece

A world class experience. Hotel is waterfront, smooth & easy. Compact, flat landscape with constant discrete attention from helpful stagff. Luxury rooms with amazing huge mattres and super amenities. Tke a few steps and relax on the sunbeds overlooking a stunning bay filled with sailing boats. Take 5 steps and you are having a Greek salad on the beachfront taverna with the Aegean touching your toes. Island is amazing. Patmos island has a deeply spiritual aristocratic flair. No mass tourism. A curated place were ancient monasteries and 5* dining co-exist under the warm sun.

This is our fourth year that we are coming back. Over that period we stayed for 7 times. Every single tüme it is soothing, relaxing, friendly and calming. No need to mention that Patmos is an amazing island with very friendly restaurants that one can enjoy. Patmos Aktis Hotel has a great team of staff, who are trying to accommodate every single need and desire of yours. Hope this piece of heart heaven stay as is for many years. Thank you to all for being so customer focused.

We spent a short 4-day holiday at Aktis Hotel and it was truly wonderful. The rooms were perfect, the food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were incredibly kind and friendly. A special thanks to Alexandra, the restaurant manager – the sweetest person in the world – and Lia from guest relations, one of the warmest people I have ever met, who helped us with everything. This little holiday felt like a dream, and we’ve already booked our stay for next summer, this time for a longer visit. A huge thank you to the entire Aktis team!

An absolute joke. Multiple years staying here, they are so nice but charge you 1,000 euro a night and say 24/7 room service, but if you try to order it they tell you there’s only one person working in the hotel? I felt bad for the guy working but that is crazy for such an expensive hotel that advertises they are open 24/7

Aksis Hotel is a true gem in Patmos serene, stylish, and full of character. The peaceful setting and warm hospitality make you feel instantly at home, and the attention to detail throughout the hotel is simply beautiful. What makes the experience even more special is the lovely traditional taverna right in front of the hotel. With fresh, authentic Greek cuisine and a magical sunset view, it’s the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. Aksis offers the perfect blend of calm island energy and local charm. I couldn’t recommend it more.

Thank You for a Wonderful Stay – Patmos Aktis We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Patmos Aktis for an unforgettable stay. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the warm hospitality, the attention to detail, and the serene beauty of the surroundings. Our room was immaculate, comfortable, and elegantly designed, offering the perfect balance of luxury and relaxation. Every part of the hotel – from the beach to the restaurant – was exceptional, and we truly appreciated the peaceful atmosphere throughout our visit. A special thank you to the staff, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Your kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference. Thank you once again for such an amazing experience!

Great location and rooms, but not suitable for those seeking peace and quiet. Room service is poor, the beach is noisy with children and sunbeds are taken early in the morning. Beach staff do not intervene. Those expecting a serene spa hotel may be disappointed.

I was fortunate to be one of the very first guests (or THE very first guest, depending on who we were talking to) of the Patmos Aktis following its rebranding to Marriott’s Luxury Collection. And what an honor it was! We received spectacular treatment from every member of the staff we encountered, from the general manager who greeted us when we pulled in to the driveway to the check in clerk who presented us with gifts for being the first Platinum level guests at the hotel, to the wonderful beach attendant and the managers of the various dining rooms. Really top notch service. It helped that the staff to guest ratio was about 20 to 1, but we certainly felt that the people working at the Aktis were proud of their resort and were very well trained. We were upgraded to a very nice suite and then subsequently further upgraded to a two bedroom suite when the HVAC system went wonky in the first room - growing pains of a new resort but laudably handled by management. Both rooms were beautiful and let me tell you, they have the best bath towels I have ever used anywhere, made by Frette (as were the bed linens). They’re lucky this was early in our trip or a couple of those towels would’ve made their way into my suitcase, although they were so plush they probably wouldn’t have fit. The location of the hotel is terrific, on a fairly secluded cove with the beach part of the property. The beach is pebbled, like most in Greece, so bring water shoes, but it’s a very nice beach with provided loungers and towels and whatnot. We had drinks and appetizers while lounging and again the service was perfect. We ate breakfast each morning in the breakfast-only restaurant and dinner in Cielo e Mare. The breakfast buffet was very nice and had a wide selection of hot and cold items, which was intimidating as we were the only guests eating the entire buffet. Dinner was also very good, and we were treated to every dessert on the menu to celebrate the GM’s birthday. It was a terrific meal and a great gesture by the manager, though he will be getting the bill from my cardiologist shortly. All in all we had a wonderful stay at the Patmos Aktis and believe it has to be the best hotel on the island. There is still construction finishing up (June 2025) but that did not affect us at all. The minor issues we had during our stay seemed to be more growing pains than anything else and were expertly handled by management. So if you’re on the fence about where to stay in Patmos, don’t hesitate to stay at the Patmos Aktis. It’s a very luxurious and beautiful property. It feels like a place that is waiting to be discovered then it will explode and become hard to book - so get there now!
