There are few villages on the island of Chios that are situated directly by the sea. Most of them were once built on the hills of the inland to avoid being overrun by any of the then common pirates. The bathing resorts of the island are all built in recent times, which means that only a handful of places by the sea can be found nowadays that are not already overrun by tourists. Luckily the small beach place of Vokaria is one of them.

Located at the foot of the lively village of Nenita, it has a small harbour with picturesque fishing boats and a beautiful pebble beach, magnetic destination for the villagers in summertime and a secret attraction for all Chians looking for an excellent tavern or a nice place to relax. There are few private summerhouses in Vokaria and no other touristic accommodations. Unspoiled by mass tourism, you will find the real Greece in here.

This is where we built our new Amarandos Apartments. Invisible from the small road but still only 15m away from the beach, they are the ideal location for those in search of a comfortable and pleasant vacation, with everything necessary to make your stay an unforgettable one, but without the noisy disadvantages of the larger touristic areas.
