Very clean private beach, spotless sand, quick sunbed service and comfortable sunbeds. Rooms with a high quality standard, modern and always clean. both breakfast and dinner were varied, for all tastes and from all international cuisines. We also want to mention Liana, from the guest relations service. She was so great with us. Ask her about anything you want or can do in the hotel or outside the hotel.

Featuring a magnificent outdoor pool and a restaurant, the 5-star NEMA Design Hotel & Spa - Adults Only offers accommodation in Analipsi of Hersonissos. The resort features a private sandy beach. Free WiFi is available in all areas. As we had the corner room, it was a little bigger than the others with plenty of room to stretch. It was peaceful and quiet, not a single noisy toddler in sight, which was the whole point of our trip. We enjoyed the room/pool and the beach so much that we didn't even have time for the spa - so something to look forward to next time. Definitely worth spending the extra dollar, especially when comparing with the ambience of the colossal resorts nearby. The restaurants/tavernas in the village are also lovely.
