Sikinos Island, Greece.
The most comfortable hotel on Sikinos—the Hotel Porto Sikinos—with pleasantly appointed rooms, is in the port of Aloprónia (T. 22860 51220, fax 51247, www.portosikinos. gr). In the chora, simpler, family-run furnished rooms with marvellous sunset views can be found at the ‘Iliovasilema’ (T./fax 22860 51173, www. sikinos-sunset.gr): attached to it, is a good patisserie (for Greek sweets principally) run by the same family.
