Stay at the Bratsera Hotel

Just a stone's throw from the port, behind a discreet gate, the Bratsera occupies the walls of a former sponge factory transformed into a charming hotel. The place retains its original character: light stone, wooden shutters, and natural materials. A citrus garden surrounds a turquoise pool where you can enjoy a peaceful break. The simple and bright rooms invite you to relax. Every morning, you can enjoy breakfast under the lemon trees, lulled by the song of the cicadas.

Swimming at Bisti Beach

To reach this wild cove, you have to take a water taxi or a coastal path (a worthwhile effort). Bisti Beach, lined with pine trees and crystal-clear water, offers an unspoiled setting, where you can settle down on a deckchair, under a straw parasol, to indulge in the slow hours, read, swim, or simply savor the silence and the view.

Explore the DESTE Foundation – Slaughterhouse

Suspended above the sea, just a few minutes' walk from the port, this raw, minimalist building has been transformed into a unique exhibition space by the DESTE Foundation. Each summer, it hosts a work or installation designed specifically for the space. The experience intensifies at sunset, when the spectacle expands into the landscape. A confidential rendezvous for art lovers in search of meaning and beauty.

Lunch at Techne

Perched on a hillside, slightly set back from the port, Techne is one of those places you'd like to keep to yourself. Its overhanging terrace offers a spectacular view of the Aegean Sea, and the food is as beautiful as the setting. Fine Mediterranean cuisine, local produce enhanced without excess, and warm service. Enjoy perfectly grilled octopus, a salad of wild herbs picked on the island, and a refreshing drink. A gourmet stop to prolong the charm of the day.

The essentials to pack in your suitcase

In your summer suitcase, we prioritize the essentials, without compromising on effectiveness. The Daily SPF Care slips to the top of the list: a two-in-one that deeply moisturizes while protecting against UV rays, ideal for lightening your toiletry bag and replacing your day cream. The SPF Care Powder Foundation gently enhances the golden tan left by the sun, while offering additional protection. And to counter the effects of high heat on the body, we bring the Body Elixir & Body Brush duo : a sensory ritual that helps boost circulation and reduce the feeling of heavy legs, to feel light from morning to night.
