Rigas Boutique Hotel & Spa

The most amazing staff I've encountered on a holiday. Such a welcoming hotel with lovely food. Would highly recommend a meal at the hotel restaurant. A short walk into a beautiful village with friendly locals. If visiting the beach go to the left hand side as you look at it as it's less shingly.

The hotel is in a great location just a few minutes walk from the village with its vast variety of restaurants and bars. Once we checked in ,our luggage was taken to our room and we were shown the bar where we were given complimentary glass of fizz.(a very nice touch) The room had a large balcony with amazing views. There was a large comfortable bed, fridge,kettle,iron and ironing board. The only downside with the room was the bathroom and it's unusual layout with the hand basin in the bedroom and shower and toilet in the bathroom, which was quite dark. The young staff very amazing very friendly ,chatty and professional. The pool area was kept very clean and there was never a problem getting a bed no matter how late we went down. Breakfasts were excellent with an extensive choice, the breakfast room was light and airy, again with fantastic views. Although we were B&B we did use the hotel restaurant a couple of times for lunch and dinner. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

What a view. We stayed here for 2 weeks. Staff were all really friendly and very helpful. Made our stay more memorable. The view for breakfast was amazing and the food was lovely. We used the restaurant a few times for lunches and evening meals and it was always amazing. There were people getting up the first week for sunbeds. But the second week no problem getting a bed. The location is great for the village. Which is beautiful with lots of bars and restaurants. Bit of a climb up from the beach but worth it and there a bar at the top. The only downside was the bathroom. But it was a lovely hoilday and a very beautiful place .

Stayed here for 11 nights in a Superior double room. If we could give 4.5 stars to this wonderful hotel we would! The views from our balcony, from the restaurant & from around the pool area are absolutely stunning. Our room was comfortable but a little tired & in need of an upgrade. There was plenty of selection for breakfast however the hot food was not hot. This was noted by other guests too & seemed to be due to the air-conditioning running very high & the system to keep the food hot being ineffective. The staff are all an absolute credit to the hotel. Everyone is very friendly & always smiling. Special mention to Stella, Tila, Georgia & Daniella. We walked down to the beach via the steps next to Notos & back up the road via the village. This is a gradual walk uphill with places to stop & sit enroute & then a much needed stop off in the square in beautuful Afitos for a drink! We will definitely return!

We have been so lucky to experience our 10th year visiting the Rigas boutique hotel &spa as a family and as always it has been a phenomenal experience.! The owners and staff can’t do enough for you, the food is always delicious and of high quality and the drinks are amazing! Particular thanks to Tila and Stella, the way they have looked after our family over the years is incredible, they go above and beyond. The views from the hotel are like nothing you’ve ever seen before and even after all this time we are still blown away each time we visit. So thank you everyone. We will be back! See you all soon

We literally shedded a tear when we left (had to leave) this amazing hotel after a stay of a little over a week. The strongest asset of this wonderfully located hotel with a spectacular view are its people. We felt at home and so to speak part of the family from the very moment we checked in. The team is utterly wonderful, very very friendly, helpful, polite and pro-active with any questions we had. We got great recommendations for restaurants and activities in the area. I do not think we ever received so much kindness and smiles from any hotel staff EVER. Truly amazing and heartwarming The room we booked was rather compact but very cosy and had everything we needed, including a balcony with a table and chairs overlooking the magnificent Aegean Sea and overlying peninsula of Sithonia. We enjoyed the sunrise a few times and spotted dolphins, which was magical. The property has a restaurant called Tuna, serving brunch, lunch, snacks and dinner. The choice is ample enough. They also offer daily specials. We rented their in-house boat for a day to go all the way to the southernmost tip of Kassandra peninsula which was great. The staff provided drinks and snacks to take on board. It is quite difficult to say anything negative about this hotel. If we had to mention two it would be that the building could use some small repairs here and there and that the pool area lacks space and beds for all the guests, creating the often very irritating and rather selfish rush for a pool bed as early as 6:00am(!). Not nice. The thing is that the walk to the beach is quite a stretch as the hotel is situated on top of the cliff. Then again, this has the advantage that the hotel is only a 2-minute walk away from the main streets of the charming village of Afitos with a myriad of restaurants, bars and shoped. Our stay was memorable and if we are to visit this area of Greece again in the future we will definitely be back!
