With magnificent sea views from a rocky headland above Aghios Nikolaos Bay, this adults-only resort blends together all the ingredients for a relaxing holiday.

Take time out to relax by the swimming pool or rest by the lapping waves of the hotel's private beach, where you can try various water-sports. The private beach, the welcoming staff, the yoga/meditation classes, the room with a beautiful view, the pool water temperature, the comfortable beds... Very hard to find any problems with this excellent hotel! Highly recommended!

This 5-star hotel offers a concierge service, a tour desk and free WiFi. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. We loved every part of our 5 nights, 6 days stay. The staff was absolutely lovely, super friendly and helpful. Our room looked exactly as depicted in the photos shown when booking it, and it came equipped as advertised too. The jacuzzi was really the icing on the cake! The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, it basically got us through every day, and we only had to worry about getting something for dinner. Overall, Nearchou Boutique Hotel is an amazing choice for a relaxing vacation, exactly what we were looking for. Would love to go back someday!
