Frequently Asked Questions
Agalia Luxury Suites can host intimate weddings for up to 80 guests across our various venue spaces. Our three private beaches (Pikri Nero, Papas, and Hamouhades) and Pathos Lounge offer flexible capacity options. For the most intimate celebrations, Hamouhades Beach is perfect for up to 60 guests, while Pikri Nero Beach and Pathos Lounge can accommodate the full 80 guests. We also specialize in elopements and micro-weddings for couples seeking a more private celebration.
We offer four distinct wedding venue settings, each with its own unique character. Choose from three exclusive private beaches - Pikri Nero (our largest beach with pristine white sand), Papas (featuring dramatic rock formations), and Hamouhades (the most secluded option for intimate ceremonies). Alternatively, the Pathos Lounge provides an elevated, sophisticated setting with panoramic sea views and spectacular sunsets. All venues can be used for both ceremonies and receptions, with the main infinity pool area also available for cocktail hours and poolside celebrations.
Yes, we offer comprehensive wedding planning assistance through our dedicated wedding coordination team. Our services include ceremony and reception setup coordination, vendor liaison, catering menu customization through our Taste of Joy restaurant, audio-visual equipment provision, and full event timeline management. We work closely with trusted local vendors for flowers, photography, music, and decoration to bring your vision to life. Our multilingual staff (Greek and English) ensures seamless communication throughout the planning process.
Absolutely! We have 19 individually designed luxury suites available for your wedding party and guests, making us ideal for multi-day destination wedding celebrations. Five suites feature private infinity pools, and four offer multiple pool access, ensuring VIP accommodations for your closest family and friends. We can create special group rates and packages for wedding guests. All accommodations showcase authentic Cycladic architecture with modern luxury amenities, private terraces, and breathtaking Aegean Sea views.
While we offer year-round availability, the optimal wedding season runs from May through October. Peak season (June-September) provides the warmest weather and extended daylight hours perfect for sunset ceremonies. Shoulder season months (May and October) offer excellent conditions with fewer crowds and often more attractive pricing. The May-October period historically enjoys 90%+ sunshine probability. Winter months (November-April) are available for elopements and micro-weddings with advance planning.
While Ios Island enjoys excellent weather during wedding season (90%+ sunshine probability May-October), we have comprehensive backup plans in place. Pathos Lounge offers partial coverage while maintaining an open-air feel. Our private beach locations benefit from natural wind protection due to their cove formations. We include full weather contingency planning in our wedding coordination services, and our experienced team monitors forecasts closely to make timely decisions. Indoor event spaces are also available if needed.
Yes, our award-winning Taste of Joy restaurant provides full-service catering for wedding celebrations. Our culinary team specializes in creating customized menus featuring fresh, locally-sourced ingredients, premium Aegean seafood, and authentic Greek specialties. We accommodate all dietary preferences and restrictions including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other special requirements. From elegant plated dinners to buffet-style receptions and cocktail hour canapés, we craft menus that reflect your personal style and cultural preferences.
Agalia Luxury Suites offers extensive amenities for your wedding guests to enjoy beyond the celebration itself. Our 178 m² main infinity pool, full-service spa with rejuvenating treatments, yoga and wellness classes, fitness center, and pool bar ensure guests are well cared for. We can coordinate pre-wedding activities like sunset cruises, island tours to Chora village, beach excursions, wine tastings, and local cultural experiences. Our concierge services assist with transportation, restaurant reservations, and activity bookings throughout Ios Island.
Agalia Luxury Suites is located in the tranquil area of Tzamaria on Ios Island. The property is accessible via the Port of Ios, which receives regular ferry connections from Athens (Piraeus), Santorini, Mykonos, and other Cycladic islands. We can arrange private transportation from the port to the hotel. For air travel, guests typically fly into Santorini (JTR) or Athens (ATH) airports, then take a ferry to Ios. Our concierge team provides detailed travel coordination and can arrange transfers and ferry bookings for your wedding guests.
