With gorgeous views of Agios Nikolaos and the glistening sea, this studio-style apartment is perfectly suited for a relaxing coastal stay. Akti Koundourou Beach is just a few steps away, with the lively harbour a short walk from your door. When you're not out exploring the local tavernas, cafes and landmarks, spend unhurried mornings sipping your espresso on the private balcony with panoramic views. Another highlight is the freestanding bathtub, while we appreciate the high-end touch that's been given to the entire apartment. Only a small kitchenette is available, so don't expect to cook big meals here – that said, you've got plenty of dining options practically on your doorstep.
