I recently spent 3 nights in a beautiful NESEA apartment whilst in Hydra. The location of the apartment was phenomenal - right in the heart of Hydra and less than a minute to the harbour area. The apartment itself was beautifully appointed - it was light, airy, and modern but kept the beautiful Greek features. The bathroom was fantastic, and the bed was sublime. It had everything you could need for a comfortable stay, including a Nespresso machine, beach towels, daily housekeeping, and a lovely little balcony. My only slight problem, which is totally out of NESEA's control, is the bell that rings out over the harbour is very close by and starts at 7am. This wasn't the best thing for a nice relaxing break, so if you’re a light sleeper, I would bring earplugs. Included with the apartment is breakfast at Papagalos, which was great. We had the Greek Breakfast each day, and it was honestly sensational. We also went back in the evening for a pizza, and it was equally delicious. Overall, our stay was fantastic - the apartment was beautiful and well-located, and the service from the welcome team and the housekeepers was very friendly. I would 100% recommend staying at a NESEA apartment.
