Rallou House Hydra

Pięknie zaprojektowany dom, ze wspaniałym widokiem. Wejście po schodach zajmuje ok 15min z portu, nie jest bardzo wymagające, po drodze jest kilka małych sklepików. Właściciele bardzo mili, odebrali nas z portu, w lodówce czekało wino, podstawowe rzeczy na śniadanie i woda. Ukryta perełka, polecam

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful house. It has a unique charm and a fascinating history that makes the whole experience even more special. Alex was a fantastic host — very responsive, friendly, and always helpful whenever we needed anything. The view from the house is absolutely breathtaking, and the area is peaceful and quiet, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The house is also fully equipped with everything you could possibly need — we didn’t miss a thing during our stay. We truly enjoyed our time here and would happily come back. Highly recommended!

Beautiful, spacious property filled with so much art and history by the family who built it. The view of Hydra from the living room is unparalleled, it must've had one of the best views in the whole town. The bedrooms were very comfortable, and each room of the house and outside was carefully decorated with handmade, unique decorations and furniture, it truly felt homely and special. The hosts were incredibly warm and helpful with everything, especially when we had ferry trouble during some local strikes happening. Yes, you do need to hike up a bit to get to it, but if you're relatively healthy it's well worth it.

It was a fantastic soulful house with a lot of history. Every detail was amazing.

Nothing, the only thing you may consider are the steps you take to get there. But it was a nice digestive pathway :)

We were absolutely delighted with our stay. I’d read other reviews and totally agree that this is a unique and very special place. Each terrace and room has so many unique features that it would take weeks to discover them all. The bedrooms were comfortable and impeccably clean. We loved every bit of it… but the show stopper is the view! Worth every step from the port!! Thank you to our host, Alex, who was so charming and helpful.

We had a wonderful time at the Rallou House. The panoramic view over Hydra’s harbor, sea, and town is absolutely fantastic – truly one of the best on the island. The house itself has a charming, personal touch with a lovely vintage interior that makes it feel warm and authentic.

Do note that the walk up to the house is steep, so a good level of fitness is recommended – we actually enjoyed it as our daily workout. Some parts of the house are starting to show little signs of wear and could use a bit more maintenance, but overall, it’s a special place to stay you won’t regret.

I was absolutely thrilled to stay in this beautiful house with its incredible history and unique design and architecture. Every corner tells a story, and the atmosphere is truly unforgettable. Sofia was always available, kind, and ready to help with anything — from practical tips to local secrets about life on the island. It was an inspiring and magical experience that I’ll never forget. Hope we will back soon

The house sits high up, so strong knees are a plus — your calves will feel it! But the view and the charm of the place make every step worth it.

The Villa is superb and designed in a quirky, vintage style which is really beautiful! The villa has one of the best views on the island and is one of the islands Iconic properties. The views from the terrace and the sitting hall are breathtaking with beautiful sunset views. We were very happy and comfortable with all the facilities and were very pleased with the small touches like little treats in the kitchen! They even provided my wife with a walking stick when she hurt her knee, which was so sweet! We loved our stay and enjoyed very minute and hope to come back here some day soon

Its quite a steep climb to the villa from the port Not for those who are not fit We limited our visits to town to once or max twice a day But the view makes the toil and sweat well worth it

Alex met us at the dock with mules in tow to help us find the house and get our luggage delivered. He then gave us a wonderful history of the house and town, as well as restaurant recommendations, as we walked the 400 or so steps to the house. Every one of them worth it! The view was fantastic, the house terrific. This is such a unique place. Loved by the whole family.
