On the hotel's first floor, this 45 sq.m. suite looks out over Vourvourou's cluster of small islands, with Mount Athos rising on the horizon beyond them. The deck is the natural focal point, large enough for a coffee in the morning or a drink in the evening while the light changes over the water. Inside, a double bed and a sofa bed convert the space to sleep up to four, and the decor keeps to muted tones that echo the colours outside rather than compete with them.

A hydro-massage bathtub gives a place to unwind after a day on the beach, and room service is available while the bar is open, useful for guests who would rather stay put on the deck than head down to eat. The kitchenette, fridge and coffee maker cover the basics for slower mornings, and a 32-inch satellite TV is there for anyone who wants a quiet evening in.

Vourvourou itself is known for its nine small islands and the sheltered bays they create along this stretch of the Sithonia peninsula, with several tavernas nearby serving fresh seafood and local dishes.
