Built in local architectural style, Pension Dryoussa is a recurring choice of stay, not only because of it's friendly owners and cosy environment, but also because of it's privileged location.

Only a breath away from the beach and the castle of Lykourgos Logothetis, and less than a five-minute walk till the picturesque port where most of the cafes, bars and restaurants are located. The main street where you can find all the stores, car rentals, banks and super-markets is just a 100 meters away.

Pension Dryoussa has 6 spacious and tastefully decorated rooms, five of which are double and one triple.

All rooms have a private balcony (some are seaview), WC & shower, air conditioning, a small fridge and an electrical kettle. Internet access through our wi-fi network is available upon request, without any additional fees.

All of the rooms are cleaned six days a week, and the bed linens are changed every three days.

We hope your stay here will be memorably enjoyable and we assure you that we will do our best to provide you a pleasant vacation.

Info about samos from wikipedia:

Samos is a Greekisland in the eastern Aegean Sea , south of Chios, north of Patmos and the Dodecanese, and off the coast of Asia Minor, from which it is separated by the 1.6 kilometres (0.99 mi)-wide Mycale Strait. It is also a separate regional unit of the North Aegean region, and the only municipality of the regional unit.

In ancient times Samos was a particularly rich and powerful city-state. It is home to Pythagorio and the Heraion of Samos, an UNESCO world heritage site that includes the Eupalinian aqueduct, a marvel of ancient engineering. Samos is the birthplace of the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras, after whom the Pythagorean theorem is named, the philosopher Epicurus, and the astronomer Aristarchus of Samos, the first known individual to propose that the earth revoles around the sun. Samian wine was well known in antiquity, and is still produced on the island.

The area of the island is 478 km2 (184.6 sq mi) 43 km (27 mi) long and 13 km (8 mi) wide. It is separated from Anatolia, by the approximately 1 mile (1.6 km)-wide Mycale Strait. While largely mountainous, Samos has several relatively large and fertile plains.

A great portion of the island is covered with vineyards, from which muscat wine is made. The most important plains except the capital, vathy, in the northeast, are that of Karlovasi, in the northwest, Pythagorio, in the southeast, and Marathokampos in the southwest. The island's population is 33,814, which is the 9th most populous of the Greek islands. The Samian climate is typically Mediterranean, with mild rainy winters, and warm rainless summers.

Samos' relief is dominated by two large mountains, Ampelos and Kerkis (anc. Kerketeus). The Ampelos massif (colloquially referred to as "Karvounis") is the larger of the two and occupies the center of the island, rising to 1,095 metres (3,593 ft). Mt. Kerkis, though smaller in area is the taller of the two and its summit is the island's highest point, at 1,434 metres (4,705 ft). The mountains are a continuation of the Mycale range on the Anatolian mainland.
