Lovely restaurant on the beach front, food and drink are excellent and the staff very friendly. You can sit in and relax or rent loungers right outside and they'll bring your drinks or food out to you also. Brilliant
My husband and I visited here five years ago and had a glorious day on the beach, so here we are again for another one. Parking is handy and there are plenty of sunbeds but they go quickly as it’s so popular. The bar is very nice inside, staff very helpful and the food at lunchtime when we ate is excellent. Looking forward to hiring a pedalo later to search for turtles.
Good meals and snacks menu.Wide range of drinks, ice creams, etc. Friendly service.On the beach with great views of the bay. Plus a large number of sun beds and umbrellas.
Lovely beach next to the tavern, they sell lots of drinks to Refresh yourself from the hot sun or if your hungry grab a snack! Staff are nice and seems clean and well looked after! Great views whilst you relax …
Nice beach, beautiful and high quality sand , near you can see planes landing to the airport, umbrella with two sunbeds just 10 for the day.The restaurant food is also good .One of the best places to lay down by the beach.Recommend.
The food was great, although the swordfish tasted like any generic fish, but this was my first time trying it, so maybe the taste is generally true for all swordfish meat. The special ice-cream was delicious so were the banana juice and the Blue Lagoon cocktail. I really liked the placement of the restaurant right next to the beach, it gave a wonderful view to the sea. Also, the addition of a cold shower was really thoughtful. Finally, the greenery on the ground really makes the whole place feel something special, like you are somewhere else entirely. I can only recommend it.
The best beach on the island if you need restful atmosphere, not too much noise and sea turtles in the water. We could see them literally every day - good swimming and patience needed.Dogs not allowed on the sand, as it is a turtle nesting protected area. No problem as long as they stay up on the grass.An umbrella with 2 sunbeds on the grass - 15 EUR in the high season.Clean beach and restaurant area, with fresh water showers, good food, always cold drinks and plenty of ice and very friendly staff.We loved the days spent on that beach.
Right on the beach, good food and drinks... Watch the planes fly in whilst dining..!!
