Sunrise is a charming family-owned hotel directly on Agrari beach, known to locals as the most beautiful and secluded little bay on the wild side of the island. Somehow, the clock turns back to slow time here. Rocky hillsides rise from its golden shore and crystal clear waters on either side, protecting it from the north winds and creating a true haven away from it all. Nestled into this idyllic scenery over two levels, the rooms and suites in white Cycladic style recall authentic island homes, filled with Aegean light, a gentle breeze and the soothing sound of the sea.

The pool deck and beach bar have something of that relaxed retro cool of the 1970s, and the taverna serving traditional Greek food steals a few secrets from family recipes. It’s all about enjoying simple pleasures that have become increasingly rare.
