Captain Zeppos
$180-350 / nuit
Réservez si You want a boutique, family-run sanctuary in Pollonia where the owner treats you like royalty and the ocean is your front yard.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Michalis (the owner) provides legendary, personalized hospitality
- Direct waterfront location with a private dock for swimming
- Massive private terraces with 360-degree Aegean views
En bref : A masterclass in Greek hospitality that feels more like staying at a wealthy friend's summer home than a hotel.
Évalué par @lets_go_lucas.s: Staying at Captain Zeppos felt like owning a private seaside villa. My favorite memory was sipping cocktails by the plunge pool while watching the sunset over Pollonia. It’s the ultimate romantic escape in Milos.

“Hi Michalis, we are so excited to visit! If available, we'd love to book the Sunset Suite (Bridge Suite) for that incredible terrace. If not, any upper-floor suite with a direct sea view would be amazing.”
FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.

Is it good for families?
Yes, the White Villa and larger suites can accommodate families, and the kitchenettes make feeding kids easy.
How far is the beach?
You have direct sea access via a dock, and the main sandy Pollonia Beach is just a short 3-5 minute walk away.
Is there parking?
Yes, free off-site parking is provided for guests.
Can I walk to dinner?
Absolutely. You are a 3-5 minute walk from the heart of Pollonia, which has some of the island's best restaurants.
