When you travel with all your favourite humans, your heart is full. Especially if you can enjoy their company in a close communion with nature — but far from the maddening crowds. Our Evergreen suites solution was created precisely with that spirit in mind: two interconnected Pine suites, with a total indoor space of 75m2!

Here, an inherent sense of “Greekness” harmoniously coexists with the best in contemporary design. The world’s comfiest queen size bed (where you can completely unwind for the night) is paired with a cool daybed where you can daydream your next adventure in nature.
Bubo
Our à la carte gem. Things here are a bit more adventurous, as our goal is to impress you with what modern Greece has to offer, taste-wise.
As always, our ingredients are fresh, locally-sourced and pure. The art de la table is done the Ekies way, and we will spoil you with different little delicacies that the chef has prepared for you.
Kuko
Inspired by the traditional Greek ‘mageirio’ (similar to a diner, in plain English for you and me), Kuko is used for our breakfast and our half-board option. Our mantra here? Keep it tasty and simple.
However, simplicity does not mean plain; portions are generous, and we won’t let you leave before we make sure you’ve tasted enough of Greece’s finest recipes. After all, we like variety.
Loligo
Here you will enjoy a quick (or slow, we won’t mind) snack, super healthy smoothies and juices, as well as iced teas with delicious raw herbs.
We are also proud of our dazzling range of cocktails made with enough fresh fruits and alcohol to get you in the mood for even more! Our bar philosophy goes well with the loose outfits you’ll want to be wearing when you visit us…
Treehouse
You’ve realised by now that we like to be a bit playful at Ekies. And how can you be playful without having a Treehouse in your backyard?
This unique space offers great, unobstructed views of the sea, as well as a bit more privacy, making it ideal for couples or groups of friends. But that’s not all: we have created a special menu that is as ‘elevated’ and unique as the rest of this extraordinary experience!

Delicious seafood and flowing wine, a magical moment for you to enjoy along with the special person that is sitting next to you. We can’t think of a more elegant treat or a greater way to seduce your senses while staying with us.
Beach & Pool
ekies, beach & pool Ekies offers effortless access to the sea, as the almost private beach of Vourvourou is only three steps away from your room. What makes us even more special?
The location is protected by the Natura 2000 program, which should give you an idea about the area’s radiant beauty! If you don’t feel like exploring much, then just head to our uber cool pool!
Diaporos Island
The biggest of the nine islands in the bay of Vourvourou. With a few adorable houses here and there, it’s a place worth exploring and is ideal for a picnic. You can go there by boat, something that we will happily arrange for you.
Myrsini Beach
The locals seem to have selected the most appropriate nickname for Myrsini Beach: they call it Hawaii Beach.
Although we strongly believe that the Greek seas and beaches can’t be compared to anything else, the locals are probably right if we are talking about white sands and turquoise waters. Located on the east side of this hidden gem of an island called Diaporos, it’s a place that you should put on your must-see list.
Agios Isidoros
Agios Isidoros is part two of the little island saga that’s happening in our neighbourhood. What makes this place special is the scattered ancient ruins that can be found along with the unique fauna and flora. The translucent waters that await you make the trip even more rewarding.
Karidi
Karidi Beach is one of the most beautiful places in Halkidiki and that is not an overstatement! Less than 300 metres away (go on, count them!) from Ekies, you will discover your Greek version of exotic paradise.
Mount Athos
Mount Athos, which is included in Unesco’s World Heritage List, has been an Orthodox spiritual centre since 1054. Known as the ‘Holy Mountain’, it has enjoyed an autonomous statute since Byzantine times and is widely recognised as a unique cultural monument of the modern world.
Thessaloniki
Historically one of Europe’s oldest and most multi-ethnic cities, Thessaloniki is the second largest city in the country. It is a modern, bustling hub that has been dubbed by the New York Times as Greece’s cultural capital. If you’ve got time to spare, Thessaloniki is well worth a visit on your way back.
