Where you’ll be
Serifos, Cyclades, Greece
Neighborhood highlights
Serifos
The island has its own distinct charming Cycladic flair with its rugged mining sites, history and mythology. The island exudes a calm atmosphere despite its arid and wild landscape characteristics and is gracefully embraced by the turquoise blue colors of the Aegean Sea.
Apart from having a laid back and relaxed holiday, you can enjoy the magnificent beaches and outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing, mountain biking, windsurfing, snorkeling, diving and many more. The island's untouched nature and low-key nightlife maintain its exclusivity.
Glaronissi Residence is located 5 km from Livadi (the island’s port), only a 10 minute drive by car. And another 5 km from Livadi is the island’s capital, the Chora.
Livadi & Chora
Livadi, the harbor, is an ideal place for taking a stroll along sea front with its wide range of restaurants, bars and coffee shops, etc. All your shopping can be done within walking distance; you will find grocery stores, bakeries, butchers, fruit shops and the island’s pharmacy.
If you like to swim, the port area has two beautiful sandy beaches: Avlomonas and Livadakia.
Chora, the main village, is built amphitheatrically on a rocky hill overlooking the island and harbor from the top. The locals have respected the Cycladic architectural tradition by building white cube-shaped houses. Strolling through the winding narrow streets of Chora, you will discover some bars, cafés and taverns, blending into the whole scene harmoniously. Take a walk up to the 15th century’s Venetian castle; visit the small chapels and windmills, perched precariously, offering breathtaking views of the island.
Magnificent Beaches
Serifos’ coastline offers plenty of beaches to choose from: rocky, pebbly or sandy ones accompanied by crystal blue waters.
The island’s beaches are reached either by car, walking trails or by sea.
Easily accessible sandy beaches are Agios Sostis, Psili Ammos, Agios Ioannis, Sikamia, Kalo Ambeli, Ganema and Vagia, where the residence is located.
Our Neighborhood
The location of our residence is ideal for exploring the whole island, for both, adults and children. Enjoy a relaxed walk at dawn or in the evening through the former vineyard valley or old Vagia village. On your way, you will find the little chapel of Agios Konstantinos and the Vagia gorge. Have a look at the old iron-mining facilities and the beach of Vagia or just walk down the hill on a private path to the isolated beach of the seagull island.
An unforgettable experience is picking summer grapes and wild-figs whilst strolling around in the neighborhood.
The residence features magnificent sea views towards south-west and in less than a 5 minute drive (or 15 minute walk) you reach the most beautiful yet unspoilt beaches of the island: Vagia and Ganema.
Nearby restaurants are the Cocomat hotel restaurant (1 km away), the Ganema beach tavern (2 km away) and Ganema Pezoules tavern (also 2 km away).

Serifian dishes are full of aromas and flavors! Try the meat products such as louzes, syglina (traditional cured pork) and sausages. Taste marathopites and marathotiganites (fennel pies baked or fried), revythada (traditionally cooked chickpeas) with a local variety of raisins, sun-dried octopus, local cheeses such as myzithra and xinomyzithra.
