"Pros: The most relaxing getaway we have ever done thanks to the lovely hotel owners and the calming and welcoming vibe of this beach. Once you open your window, you could hear the waves and see the turquoise-colour sea. The beach is the most beautiful beach we have ever visited. You could literally see everything through 10m depth. It's not that rocky, more a pebble-like beach(great for kids to play the stones), which is fantastic for swimming/snorkelling and free-diving. The total people on this (not-so-small)beach would be 10 max so you could really relax completely and have your own quality time with friends or family. The restaurant that is run by the hotel owner's father exceeds our expectation. We didn't intend to dine out 3 times a day(there's a well-equipped shared kitchen) as a mom easily gets tired of other people's cuisine, however, we couldn't resist our joy each time to come downstairs to say hi to the sweetest-ever hotel family and the friendly guests(that's the vibe of this area) and eventually enjoy our great meals while hearing the waves and sensing the sea nearby. As a family of divers and open-water swimmers, we highly recommend this hotel to anyone who loves the authentic cuisine of Samos and the original hospitality/generosity of Greek." ~Michelle
