Hit the beaches
From secluded coves only accessible by boat to family-friendly sandy spots, there’s a beach on the island for every holidaymaker. Our favourites? It has to be Gialiskari beach, which boasts crystal-clear water and is within walking distance of our hotel. And the beach directly opposite us, where you can enjoy free sunbeds as our guests and opt for ice-cold freddo cappuccinos at the beach bar. Bliss!

Visit The Capital
Set on a pretty hillside overlooking the Aegean, Ioulida (or Chora) is layered with traditional architecture, authentic flavours and boutique shops. Only 10 minutes away (by car) and perfect for a family day out, you can enjoy mingling with the locals and setting off on your own adventure – complete with panoramic views of the island. We recommend walking to the must-see ancient stone Lion of Kea and visiting the archaeological museum, to get the little ones talking and learning about the legends and the history of the island.

Boat Tour & Snorkelling
What’s the best way to uncover Kea’s hidden beaches, ancient ruins and untouched beauty? By boat, of course. Whizz around the entire island on a day trip and take in all the sights, including the renowned archaeological site of Karthaia. And explore our wonders under the sea with a spot of snorkelling along the way.
