Douskos Guesthouse - Hydra (Saronic Islands)

Charming 3-star guesthouse with rooftop breakfast and historical character in Hydra

Accommodations

Douskos Guesthouse offers rooms in a building that dates back centuries, with high ceilings and antique furniture that reflect the island's architectural past. The split-level rooms have the bedroom upstairs and a seating area below, a configuration unique to this property. Junior suites come with sea views and private balconies, providing guests with a direct vantage point over Hydra's harbor.

Breakfast & Dining

Each morning, a complimentary breakfast is served at the Douskos Port House, a separate property a few minutes' walk away. The rooftop terrace where breakfast is served offers a panoramic view of Hydra's port and the surrounding hills. Meals are cooked to order from a menu that includes omelets, fruit bowls, and fresh coffee.

Location & Accessibility

The guesthouse is 98 ft from Hydra Port and 300 ft from the Historic House of Lazaros Kountouriotis, placing all ferry arrivals and major landmarks within a short walk. The building sits on a flat street at the edge of the port, so guests can reach the entrance without carrying luggage up steep hills. Being in a car-free town, the property is quiet at night yet steps from the harbor's cafés and restaurants.

Guest Services

A staff member meets guests at the ferry upon arrival and arranges porters to carry bags to the guesthouse. The front desk provides printed maps and personalized recommendations for beaches, hiking trails, and local dining based on daily observations. Housekeeping is done daily, and beach towels are provided free of charge for guests heading to Avlaki or Vlychos beaches.

Pet-Friendly Policy

Douskos Guesthouse Hydra permits pets in guest rooms, giving travelers the ability to bring their dogs or cats to the island. No additional cleaning fees or deposits are charged for animals, as confirmed by the owner. The car-free environment of Hydra makes walking dogs along the seafront or through the narrow streets safe and easy.
