A great hotel with pool, spar and scuba centre. Beach with a bar across the road which is perfect for sun and sea. Excellent choice for breakfast with a fabulous dining area both indoors and al fresco. Superior rooms are excellent with modern decor and bathroom. In the restaurant, there is a short menu but all the dishes are cooked to perfection, and special daily dishes are a feature. Sunset views amazing. Very helpful staff under the direct supervision of Phillip Perrakis. Handy for Batsi but 45 minutes by bus to Andros Town. (Trip Advisor)
Went here to celebrate a special birthday. Everything was top notch; started with g n t on the terrace with fantastic sea views, then moved indoors to the table which had been set in an immaculate fashion. Staters were great and all parties enjoyed their food which ranged from traditional Greek to more adventurous; my tomahawk pork steak was the best I’ve had on the island. Slightly more expensive than the usual tavernas, but well worth it for the service and location, will be back for sure. (Trip Advisor)
