Drinks & Nightlife
Take your pic from the impressive list of gin concoctions and sip in style... a jumble of mismatched tables and chairs in different colours sit around a beautiful olive tree at the centre of a stone flagged courtyard - at weekends be serenaded by local and international singers, musicians and artists.

Parks & Nature
The apartment building is situated at the highest point of the village and literally backs on to the hills! Running alongside the parking area of the apartments you will find a walking path/trail. Following this trail in either direction ,you will enjoy stunning views of the sea and surrounding hills. Following the tail up to the very top of the hill you will come across a small church, continuing onwards, the trail will eventually loop you back to the apartment. Entire loop takes at least an hour - an hour and a half (at a decent walking pace) / 2 hours leisurly stroll!

A hidden gem, waiting to be discovered! The fresh scent of pine fills the air as the road twists steeply down the hillside - each turn revealing a glimpse of the sparkling turquoise bay below. This is by far our favourite beach on the island! Dazzling white sand and crystal-clear, turquoise waters combine to create an idyllic scene and a great spot for snorkelling. A cafe - perched on the hillside, overlooking the bay serves simple but delicious food (sandwiches, salads, fruit platters etc.). Enjoy a frappe or an ice-cold beer, under the shade of pine trees and take in stunning views of the bay. Not to be missed!
