A real surprise
Great position 5 minutes walk to the beaches shops and restaurants, Irini is very good value, ground floor room was not large but had a balcony overlooking the swimming pool the pool was a good size and the surrounds were excellent, plenty of lounges, including a couple of large cushioned ones just the thing for a relaxing time around the pool, but be quick as they are popular. Room was spotlessly clean, with good room service. We enjoyed our 6 days at Irini and Platis Gialos is a very lovely small town with good beaches. A bit of a distance from the port but do not be put off by this.

Friendly and charming
This is the second time I have stayed at Villa Irini. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a balcony room on either occasion, but the terrace was perfectly adequate and felt perfectly private as it was early in the season (12th-26th June). It also had a really good view of both the pool and the sea beyond, both beautifully framed by flowers, trees and greenery. Everyone who works here is very friendly and helpful; nothing is too much trouble and they really make the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable. The breakfast was plentiful with a good selection, and the rooms very clean and pleasant. The showers are a little small as mentioned by some of the other reviewers, but it really isn't a problem. The pool area is lovely, and in addition to the usual sunbeds has a squashy sofa piled high with cushions to relax on. It's only a couple of minutes walk to the beach, which is where most of the other hotels and restaurants/tavernas are situated, but has an advantage over most of the other hotels by being in a quiet and peaceful area. There are two small mini-marts on the main strip, plus a shop that sells mostly shoes, swimming gear and hats, but for anything else (including banks and pharmacies) you need to take a bus trip up to Appollonia. There are some really good places to eat, my two favourites being "Maiolica" and "Water and Salt". Both serve imaginative, well-presented food, with excellent options for vegetarians and vegans. Villa Irini exudes charm and if I am fortunate enough to return to Sifnos for a third time it is the only place I will consider staying in. Thanks to everyone there for making my holiday extra special!

It’s a lovely hotel which is not even 200mtrs from Platys Gialos where all the great restaurants are located. The rooms are clean, tidy and cosy. And the view is gorgeous. Nicholas is a very helpful person, who took care of all our queries. Great hospitality!
