Small Boutique hotels in HYDRA

This small Greek island in the Aegean Sea is known as "the queen of the Saronic Islands" because of its beauty and location at the gates of the gulf of the same name. With a maximum length of 20 km, it is easily accessible from the port of Piraeus of Athens or the port of Nuplia in the nearby Peloponnese peninsula. If you go up Mount Eros, the highest point on the island, you get a bird's eye view. With 55 km of coastline, its beaches of crystalline waters and white sand are enchanting and alternate with cliffs.

The capital, Hidra, wraps around like an amphitheater in a bay that protects it. The noble houses designed by Italian architects stand out.

Picturesque cobbled streets ascend the hillside. From the monastery of the Prophet Elijah you will enjoy a magnificent view. A holiday destination for well-off Athenians, it also attracts artists from all over the world who end up settling there.

In a one-hour walk you reach the small fishing village of Kaminia. Relaxation is assured on this island that does not allow vehicles except for services and public transport. Instead, water taxis and donkeys are commonly used. From Hydra you can make a trip to the nearby and uninhabited island of Dokos. Whiteness and brightness preside over the charming hotels of this radiant island.
