With just 15 minimalist, earth-toned suites, an Instagram-ready infinity pool and big Aegean views from the terrace restaurant, this adults-only bolthole is made for couples who value peace, style and slow island living. Sip Aperol spritzes at the swim-up bar, linger over breakfast as fishing boats bob below, then wander up to the old town’s cobbled lanes and family-run tavernas as the sun sets.

Map & location
Alonissos Town, Alonissos Island, Greece
Aletri Swim Up Boutique Hotel is tucked into a hillside just above Alonissos Town (also known as Chora or the Old Village), one of the prettiest corners of the Sporades. Wrapped in pines, vines and bougainvillea, the old town’s whitewashed alleys, ruined castle and church-topped viewpoints are an easy stroll away, with plenty of family-run tavernas for long, lazy dinners.
Down the hill, Patitiri – the island’s small harbour town – is your gateway to the rest of the archipelago, with boat trips to marine parks and neighbouring islands. Beaches here are typically pebbly coves with clear, calm water, perfect for swims after mornings by the pool.
- • Ferry port (Alonissos) short transfer from hotel
- Approx. transfer time from airport 2 hours 50 minutes including ferry crossing from Skiathos (JSI).
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The hotel is all about poolside living. Two adults-only freshwater pools wrap around the suites in a stylish, stepped design, with infinity-style edges framing those sea views.
• 2 outdoor freshwater pools, both adults-only
• Many suites open directly to shared swim-up pools
• Generous sunbathing areas with sunbeds and parasols
• Pool towel service included
Beaches on Alonissos tend to be pebble or shingle coves with crystal-clear water. The nearest beach is around 1.8km away – an easy trip by local taxi or hire car from Alonissos Town – with more coves dotted along the coast if you fancy exploring.
Spa, sports & wellness
Aletri Swim Up Boutique Hotel focuses on calm, unhurried relaxation rather than a packed activity schedule. Expect:
• Peaceful sun terraces with views over the hillside and sea
• Contemporary lounge-style seating by the bar and restaurant
• Concierge service for local recommendations, restaurant bookings and excursion ideas
• Luggage storage if you arrive early or depart late
• Free Wi-Fi throughout the property
There’s no on-site spa or gym – most guests use the hotel as a base for coastal walks, boat trips or simply long, lazy days by the pool followed by evenings in the old town’s tavernas.
