Pine-fringed coastal hideaway
Hammocks string between coastal pine trees along Vourvourou Bay, where barefoot paths lead from grassy lawns directly to shallow waters.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Custom Greek stone architecture, landscaped pine gardens, and bespoke suites featuring raw timber and private pools.
Notable
Direct beach frontage with boat rentals to Diaporos Island, multiple dining venues, and shallow bay swimming.
Listed
Natural Coco-Mat mattresses, private suite plunge pools, and attentive lounger service along the sandy bay.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Quiet pine forests wrap around Sithonia's coast, where calm waters invite kayak trips and private boat excursions across to Diaporos Island.
The rooms
Interiors feature raw timber and Coco-Mat beds, while select suites add private terraces with outdoor plunge pools overlooking the gardens.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The curved freshwater pool sits under fringed parasols, beside palms and a circular children's basin.
The gym
An open-air fitness pavilion with barbells and free weights sits directly amid the pine grove.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Treehouse
A wooden deck wrapped around a mature pine tree hosts intimate dinners and seasonal tasting menus above the water.
Bubo Restaurant
Tables line the seaside balustrade for sunset dinners of contemporary Greek cuisine right beside the calm bay.
At the table
Loligo serves cocktails under thatched reed canopies, and the open-air taverna sets tables right along the shore.
How it began
Owner Alexandra Efstathiadou transformed the coastal site of her childhood holidays into an eco-conscious retreat rooted in northern Greek heritage.
