Search hotels in Itea

We used Itea as a base to travel to Galaxidi, Delphi, and Arcahova. It’s an attractive little place with sea front cafes/food/bars. They are just lively enough for you to still enjoy the tranquillity of being near sea and mountains. The locals are lovely people and welcome you.

We stayed in Itea in an Airb&b to be close to Amphissa my mums town, where we spent Greek Easter with relatives. Itea is a great seaside town with a great promenade filled with cafes, bars, restaurants, and local food shops and bakeries. I know in the summer the sea is great to swim in as we use to swim in it as children and many locals from the surrounding villages visit Itea for the swimming and to eat and drink at the restaurants and bars. If you have access to a car, its close to Galaxidi a great seaside village with good fish restaurants ( recommend -Ab oVo ) on the seafront (a great day out) and also to the more tourist villages of Delphi and Arahova in the mountains. If visiting Delphi (with car) for the ancient monuments, Apolos temple and museum, I would recommend staying in Itea, less touristy, possibly cheaper and better restaurants. In Itea I recommend Flame for great pizza, Scala restaurant for good basic greek food - good fish. My cousin recommends Ta Dichtya restaurant for fresh fish and Archontikon cafe, bar and ice-cream place and they also have a cake shop further down which is known for its great cakes and pastries. If near Arahova avoid the touristy restaurants and head for - To Fasouli restaurant just outside the village on the Arachova-Eptalofos road, excellent food, views and great service. If visiting the area I would definitely stay in Itea again. My brothers stayed in Hotel Galini in the center of Itea and Hotel Kalafati towards the end of the promenade about 15 minutes walk to the center, both were pleased with the Hotels cleanliness and good accomodation.

Itea is a nice city with many shops, cafe's and restaurants. Nice boulevard along the seashore, and pleasant beach area. Beautuful views over sea and mountains. On a pleasant small distance form Delfi!
