Explorer's Rest

Explorer's Rest is set back on a quiet lane in Argasi at the foot of Mount Skopos. It is a single villa divided into 4 studios set in a small olive grove. There is parking available in the gardens to the front of Explorer’s Rest enabling you to explore the island in your own way and at your own pace. The studios provide compact home comforts The 2 ground floor studios have been refurbished and can both accommodate up to 3 adults with the option of an extra Z bed for a child. The first floor studios are basically equipped and can accommodate up to 2 adults each. Guests at Explorer’s Rest are welcome to use the swimming pool at Edelweiss Hotel opposite (respecting the usual pool etiquette of opening times etc.) where we have Aqua Yoga and Garden yoga classes.

 

GROUND FLOOR - Voyager and Wayfarer

Voyager and Wayfarer studios both bear characteristics of their names, reflected in their colour schemes and décor. The spirit of the Sea Explorer and the Wandering Wayfarer are invoked in the carefully selected furnishings, pictures, ornaments and books. Both studios have full kitchens giving you the freedom to choose whether to eat out or prepare some great home cooked food. The bunk beds too reflect the sense of adventure we’d like to share with our guests. The balconies have French windows with pull down mosquito nets for your comfort and convenience and enjoy views of the foothills of Mount Skopos. Perfect for enjoying a sundowner. Both studios have flat screen TV, safety deposit box, free air conditioning and WiFi.
