Stripped-back stay on Alonissos
Two minutes’ stroll from a pebbled stretch of shoreline that sits in a quiet cove, Poseidon Studios has got peaceful escape written all over it. There are only a handful of rooms here, so you can expect a friendly atmosphere along with a generous helping of peace and quiet.
Stroll 15 minutes in one direction and you’ll find yourself in the island’s capital of Patitiri– a dreamy little harbour village that boasts whitewashed streets, a small-but-perfectly-formed beach, and a slew of charming tavernas and cafés. Stroll 15 minutes from Poseidon Studios in the other direction, meanwhile, and you’ll find yourself in the equally charming – and equally sleepy – village of Votsi. Home to one of the island’s most beautiful bays, you can expect crystal-clear waters dotted with local fishing boats.
There’s plenty of exploring to be done on this shore, but with the harbour in Patitiri practically on your doorstep, you’d do well to hop on a ferry and visit a few neighbouring islands during your stay. Head for Peristera where you can spy a shipwreck or make for Skopelos and see if you can scout out the filming locations for Mamma Mia!
