The hotel is well located with a nice beach front bar. Each room from the Adults only hotel had its own spot at the beach with a bottle of water courtesy from the hotel. Breakfast had a good variety of food and the option of having a brunch at Elia restaurant was very nice.

We stayed in a two-bedroom villa with a sea view, two couples, for the second time. The service at the hotel is perfect, the staff is courteous and responds to every request with a smile and kindness. The villa is well-equipped, clean and simply perfect. The location of the hotel is truly dreamy, located on the mountain, with a simply stunning view, and is close to all the main places. Highly recommend staying at this hotel. We will definitely be back♥️

The setting is stunning — nestled among the hills with panoramic views, the hotel offers both tranquility and easy access to everything you could wish for. The rooms are spacious, modern, and beautifully appointed, with every comfort you could imagine. The service deserves the highest praise: professional, attentive, and always delivered with a genuine smile. From the reception to the restaurant and housekeeping, every member of staff made us feel truly valued.

There are places you go to simply relax, but you leave with the feeling that you’ve lived through a little fairytale. Nana Princess is exactly such a place. Here, every detail is so thoughtfully designed that you forget about time and immerse yourself in an atmosphere of comfort, beauty, and care. The architecture and design are stunning: marble, wooden accents, soft lighting, and greenery create a sense of harmony. The rooms are spacious and bright, with balconies where you can spend hours gazing at the sea. Everything is prepared with great attention to detail — comfortable beds, impeccable cleanliness, high-quality robes and towels. Breakfasts and dinners are a true culinary celebration: fresh fruit, olives, seafood, homemade pastries, and exquisite cheeses. But the most important treasure of Nana Princess is its people. Here you don’t feel like just a guest — you feel like someone truly cared for and welcomed. ✨ A very special thank you to Alla and Joanna. Alla — your warm welcome, energy, and attention were pure magic for us. You created the feeling of being at home away from home, and every word and smile felt like those of a dear friend. Joanna — you are a true master of details. You always knew what to recommend and how to surprise us: from a dessert to ideas for how to spend our day. Thanks to you, we felt cared for in every single moment. We are grateful not only for the comfort but also for the atmosphere, for the sense that time here seemed to stop. For the sunrises over the sea, for the smiles, and for all the little joys that made up our perfect holiday. Thank you, Nana Princess, Alla, and Joanna — you gave us a holiday that turned into inspiration. We leave with the strong desire to return again.

My stay at this hotel was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. Everything exceeded my expectations — from the warm welcome at check-in to the attentive service throughout my stay.
