Captain Zeppos

Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Michalis (the owner) provides legendary, personalized hospitality
- Direct waterfront location with a private dock for swimming
- Massive private terraces with 360-degree Aegean views
Snel Overzicht: A masterclass in Greek hospitality that feels more like staying at a wealthy friend's summer home than a hotel.
Beoordeeld door @lets_go_lucas.s:ย 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. Itโs the ultimate romantic escape in Milos.

โHi 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.โ
Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there a pool?

Is breakfast included?
Not exactly. You receive a generous 'welcome basket' with local products to prepare your own breakfast in your kitchenette.
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.
