The small hotel is not only an ideal place for relaxation but also an ideal starting point to discover the diverse island. The 59 renovated residential units, spread over two floors, have also been renovated and offer every comfort. The central point of contact is the reception (staffed for 17 hours) with a rental safe and a cozy lounge. There is also a breakfast room and a bar. An à-la-carte restaurant with a terrace offers Greek and international delicacies while enjoying the sunset.

The adjacent pool bar provides refreshments. Loungers and umbrellas are free of charge at the pool, and available for a fee at the beach.
