The island's only inland village and the quieter east-coast beaches — a real Greek square, a monastery and calmer sands like Elia and Kalafatis. Cheaper, slower and more authentic, a drive from the buzz; a base for those wanting peace.

On your doorstep
What you’re living next to if you stay here.
- 9.Ano Mera & Tourliani Monastery — The island's only real village, with a proper Greek square of tavernas and the ornate 16th-century Panagia Tourliani monastery, its baroque marble bell tower and carved screen. A calm, authentic hour away from the glitz.
- 12.Elia & Agrari beaches — The longest sandy beach on the island, on the calmer south-east coast — organised at one end, quieter at the other, with clear water and less of a scene than the party sands. A relaxed day in the sun.
- 15.Kalafatis watersports — The east-coast bay of Kalafatis is the island's watersports hub — reliable wind for windsurfing and kitesurfing, plus diving on the reefs offshore. A more active, laid-back beach day away from the party crowds.
