Serenity Retreat is for solo travellers wanting sole occupancy of studios and apartments.
All the accommodations available to Serenity Retreat are within a ten minute walk of each other.
It depends on your priorities. If you want real peace and quiet then May and late September/early October - the compromise is that the weather is more unpredictable but never have we had a week without good sunbathing opportunities. Fewer tavernas are open in May and the last two weeks of the season.
June and early September are best for weather (although nothing is guaranteed!), the compromise here is that we share the beaches and village with other holidaymakers (mostly Greeks and Italians). All the tavernas are open during these times too.
The last week of June is significantly busier than other weeks - please bear that in mind!
We don't advertise these although some of the accommodations do have both. We don't advertise them because the wifi is notoriously unreliable and the tv stations are in Greek (or the tvs don't work!). The local cafes and tavernas all have more reliable wifi but we would strongly recommend coming with the intention of not using either, or at least limiting your normal use.
We include Ted's Bijou in this category.
Studios directly on the beach. Really - on the beach. Nothing but fresh air between you and the sea. All with incredible sea views. Ground floor studios/apartments are bigger, first floor are smaller but with an elevated view. So it will depend on whether you want an elevated view from the balcony, or whether it's important for you to be on the same level as a cup of tea and the loo! Our most spartan and basic option but still with a 2 ring hob, ensuite bathroom, kettle and fridge.
Self catering with separate kitchen/dining area in a more traditional style. They are also right on the beach, and all have seaviews and patios or balconies. Two ground floor apartments with beautiful patio area out the front, and one first floor apartment with a double aspect sea and mountain view bedroom and 3 (yes 3!) balconies. Run by the fabulous Panayiota who speaks no English but that doesn't stop her practising her 'how are you?' on you! Still quite basic, but bigger than Tassoula's and with better cooking facilities.
These are modern, stylish, cool and shady studios with the beach also right in front of you. Both of the studios are on the ground floor with patio looking out onto the sea and a lovely lawn to sunbathe on if you don't fancy the beach (which is 10 metres away). Lovely cooking facilities and bathroom. The studios are open plan and both slightly different although they have a bedroom area and kitchen area and sofa/day bed.
On the ground floor at Dina's we have two large 2 bedroomed apartments (for sole occupancy), decorated in a traditional style with a fabulous patio area out front (check out the gallery to the right). On the first floor there is a 2 bedroomed apartment and a 1 bedroomed apartment both with balconies and, of course, great sea views. We took some regular guests along to check them out this June (2017) and there was a lot of appreciative cooing and oohing going on, so we think they're going to be a hit! We've priced them to reflect their size. They're still quite basic, but with separate cooking area (2 ring hob with small oven, fridge, kettle, table and chairs), and are generally larger than the previous options.
A ground floor large studio with huge balcony and fabulous sea views. Lots of space indoors and out to get your yoga mat out (we can lend you one) or dance around wildly. It's has two patios, one to the front with full sun and one to the side which is deliciously shaded by trees. We used to do our outside meditation here so you can imagine how lovely it is.
This is a ground floor apartment with a large outside patio area looking out onto the beach. It has a living room/kitchen and a separate double bedroom and bathroom. The living room and bedroom both have patio doors opening out onto the sea and the beach. This apartment was newly refurbished last year in a contemporary style. It has a huge patio area out front and so far this year (2017) has received very favourable reports.
Two beautifully appointed and furnished first floor apartments also right on the beach. With separate living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom - perfect if you are after amazing views, privacy and a touch of luxury (only one has the rocking chair, so book early....). These get booked up VERY early on.
