The breakfast was exceptional, I would visit the hotel again if only for the breakfast! The location is superb with open see view and next to the center, the room quite comfortable with small balckony, but the most remembering element it the bathroom with see view! The hotel staff was friendly and welcoming.

We’ve now stayed at Swell Boutique Hotel three times, and each visit has been a truly wonderful experience. As a small hotel, it offers a sense of personal touch and comfort that’s hard to find elsewhere. The staff—and the owner—are very friendly, always welcoming and eager to assist with any request. Their warmth and hospitality make you feel like a valued guest from the moment you arrive. The rooms are impeccably clean, thoughtfully designed, and well-equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Mornings start with a delicious Greek breakfast, offering a wide variety of fresh choices—including excellent fresh orange juice. With its beautiful views of the beach and great location (plus own parking) Swell Boutique Hotel combines convenience with tranquility. We’ve returned several times already and wouldn’t hesitate to come back again. Highly recommended.

Location was near the water and all the shopping, on a narrow alley. The staff was gracious and helpful with dinner suggestions and our room was very nice. Wish we could have stayed longer. Be prepared to park a short walk away. Breakfast was elegant.

Very good breakfast - guality food and wide variety. Beautiful interior design. Comfortable rooms with everything you might need. Free parking lot. Though Plakias village is small the hotel location is best what can be.

Pepi Boutique Hotel is a little oasis of calm in the centre of the bustling old town. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly at every touch point. The breakfast was excellent and served in the cool courtyard around the little pool. The loungers were very comfortable and there was lots of shade during the day. The location is excellent, with the lovely streets and tavernas of the old town right on your doorstep. Don't miss the museum a few steps away, fascinating collection.

Angeliki and all the staff were really helpful and friendly and gave us lots of advice on what to do and see around the area. Breakfast was really good with local, home made produce and room was clean and spatious with direct access to the swimming pool. We really enjoyed our stay in this cute boutique hotel and everyone here was really lovely!

Absolutely everything! Especially the design of the spaces d how it feels like a boutique property but is actually huge and has every amenity you could wish for. The multiple restaurants and beaches meant we hardly left the hotel in the 6 days we were there. Special shout out to the most incredible breakfast buffet and all of the staff who went above and beyond to make our stay simply perfect.

The hotel was fabulous. The hotel is split across two locations, the pool area and then the beach club. Our rooms were next to the beach club, and it was gorgeous (the pool area is great too). The beach club is very stylish, the beach itself is lovely - great drink and food selections. The rooms are simple, but comfortable and super clean. The best thing about this hotel is the staff - everyone we interacted with was so friendly and helpful - Manos has built an amazing team. I recommend!
