Petra Nera Hotel, Skiathos, Greek Islands

• Stunning sea views: Petra Nera’s elevated setting in the village of Agia Paraskevi not only feels tucked away from the crowds, it also offers dreamy views over the sea. From your luxe lounger around the infinity pool, watch the ever-changing light and soak up the rays for which the Greek Islands are renowned. For a different vista, don your flip flops for the five-minute walk down to the beach, where golden sand is lapped by crystalline waters.

• Beautifully designed: A fabulous renovation has given the hotel a luxurious facelift, from the gorgeous sandy-hued rooms with driftwood features, soft linen sheets and contemporary en suites, to the gorgeous outside spaces which capture the essence of Greek summer with their whitewashed walls, tiled floors and backdrop of the sea.

• Eat like a Greek: Petra Nera’s dining options showcase the best of Greek cuisine, beginning with fresh, locally sourced breakfasts (served until 10:30am, so you can lie in), to light bites and cocktails served poolside for lunch and Mediterranean fine dining in the evening. The fusion-style incorporates traditional Greek dishes with international favourites.
