# Ammouliani Hotels, Studios and Villas (Amoliani): Where to Stay on the Island > Where to stay on Ammouliani (Amoliani), the small island off Halkidiki in Greece - hotels, studios and guesthouses near the Tripiti-Ouranoupoli ferry, including Demi Studios, Helianthus Guesthouse and Agionissi Resort. | | | |---|---| | Sea | Aegean | | Ferry from | Tripiti / Ouranoupoli | | Setting | Off Halkidiki | | Nearby islets | Drenia | **Accommodation on Ammouliani is small-scale and mostly family-run, with simple pensions and rooms alongside modern apartments and studios, so there is something for every budget.** Ammouliani is the only inhabited island between Mount Athos and Sithonia. You reach it by a short ferry from Tripiti, the small mainland port beside the resort town of Ouranoupoli, and it sits near the uninhabited Drenia islets. **Island history:** Ammouliani once belonged to the Vatopedi Monastery on Mount Athos. Refugee families resettled the island after the 1922 Greco-Turkish population exchange, and their descendants run many of the family-owned rooms and tavernas today. _Photo: Ammouliani (Amoliani), off Halkidiki, Greece_ _Photo: Ammouliani (Amoliani), off Halkidiki, Greece_ _Photo: Ammouliani (Amoliani), off Halkidiki, Greece_ _Photo: Ammouliani (Amoliani), off Halkidiki, Greece_ ## Where to Stay on Ammouliani: Hotels Compared Ammouliani's places to stay are small-scale and family-run.
