The terrace where you have the breakfast and sundowner drinks from the honesty bar!
On our way to the beach.
Our beach room at the Emporio villa right at the waterfront. Great to wake up just with the sound of the ocean.
Our view from the new Emporio villa! Time for a morning swim in the quiet bay.
very cute swimming pool in one of the old buildings of the The Old Markets.
Afternoon rest after a long lunch in the harbour.
The Old Market of Symi renovated to become what is now the Hotel.
Strolling around the property.
Highs & Lows
-
The combination of a central townhouse in the busy port and a new, out of town waterfront boutique hotel (and soon beachclub!), connected by its own little boat - this must be one of the most unique places to stay in Greece.
-
The social aspect of it all: with so little room (and the honesty bar!) you meet other guests so easily, in a very relaxed way. You see each other at one of the beaches and then for an aperitivo on the terrace.
-
Both places don’t feel like staying at a hotel, but more like you’re a local: they consist of smaller buildings connected together. Almost like a little village in the village.
