We visited Ekies in September, and used it as a base from which to boat around the coast daily. It’s very easy to rent a little boat from the various vendors on the beach. This allowed us to explore the area which is breathtaking from the water (see my boating post soon!).  We stayed in a White Suite and loved it’s proximity to the beach. I really recommend staying in the grounds rather than the main building of the hotel.

The hotel is incredibly family friendly, and although strollers where the standard, I didn’t see one tantrum or family drama during the whole visit. The weather in September was still baking and I had forgotten how stunning the greek islands are (having not visited for a few years). Although this hotel is a lower price point than I would normally review, it’s so perfect for boating from and the cost of renting boats brings the cost of the trip up so I think the saving on the hotel is worth while.  It would be the perfect place to come for your first trip post baby, you wouldn’t feel self-concious because there are so many babies, the flight time is short, the sun is almost guaranteed and the location is beautiful.
