Leaving a review here for Aqua Mare as there is no dedicated page on TripAdvisor and it does appear to be part of the same complex as Aqua Bay. Stayed here for a week in August 2023. We arrived at Adamamantas by ferry from Piraeus at around midday, and after a short walk arrived at the Athena Travel Services offices to pay for our stay and collect our room keys. Payment was sorted quite quickly and were told that they key would be in door of the room, which would be available from 3pm. We then walked a few doors down to collect our hire car, and were soon on our way to Agia Kyriaki. It takes about 20 minutes by car from Adamantas, and the roads are generally in good condition. However just before you arrive in Agia Kyriaki the road becomes unpaved for about a half-kilometre- after this point it then returns to being paved again. (A car is essential if you are staying here, as the pretty good bus network does not operate in this part of the island). There is a large car park at the beach which was full when we arrived, but there are a number of parking spaces by the accommodation. As we had arrived before 3pm we sat on the beach until our accommodation became available. As promised the key was left in the door and we entered with our luggage. Initial thoughts were that it was on the small side and rather basic- it included a bedroom with a linked kitchenette area, together with a separate bathroom. There was no dedicated furniture for clothes storage, but there were metal hangers placed in the corner of the bedroom and both bedside tables had areas large enough to pile up shorts and T-shirts. The bathroom had a good quality shower, and towels were supplied and changed every couple of days. Shampoo and shower gel were initially provided, but once they ran out were not replaced- we had to purchase replacements from a supermarket for the second half of our stay. A decent-sized fridge was provided, as was a kettle, a range of cutlery, glassware and plates. There is no TV supplied, but there is wi-fi which worked well during our stay. There was also good air conditioning which was particularly useful at night. Outside there is a terrace area with a table and two chairs, which we made use of when having breakfast and then sundowners later in the day. There is also an outdoor tap provided which was very useful in washing sand off our feet after returning from a day at the beach. The accommodation was cleaned daily and was generally maintained to a good standard during our stay. Aqua Marina is made up of six units that share a courtyard area- from there it is a short walk to the beach. Whilst Agia Kyriaki it is sandy and has pretty clear water, we felt it wasn't as clean as other beaches on the island. We discovered a number of other better beaches and these included Paleochori, Fyriplaka, Provatas and Plathiena. However a number of boat trips leave from the beach, and we booked a half-day excursion to Kleftiko which we enjoyed.
