We went to Patmos by catamaran from Rhodes, which passed a lot of other islands en route. Patmos is beautiful, with a perfect combination of beachlife, cultural/ historical sights, dramatic scenery and friendly villages. I wouldn't come here to party, but for relaxation, a spot of gentle pottering about and some sightseeing it is perfect. Get a car/moped/ bike though. The bus connections between the beauty spots and villages are infrequent and you'd miss a lot if you didn't explore the roads. Patmos has plenty of little tavernas serving delicious, fresh and simple greek food with very friendly service. Particularly recommend those around Grikos bay for intimacy and atmosphere and a lovely bar on Scala port called, I think, the Art Cafe.
