Verina Astra – Poulati The tranquil option Sprawling on the side of a steep hill with nothing between you and the endless Aegean blue, Astra leaves you speechless and transcendent. The ancient hill town of Kastro with its little acropolis and fortified walls is the first thing that will catch your eye. But if you look further to the horizon, the impressive panoramic view will take your breath away, especially at night when the stars are lit and you feel like every corner was designed to invite you to infinite star gazing. It is no wonder that this stunning complex has taken its name from the Greek word for stars – Astra – and each suite is named after a constellation.

The 7 luxurious, spacious suites are built with breathtaking views to be enjoyed from equally spacious private terraces equipped with large tables and deck chairs, their style fully blending in with the natural beauty of the landscape. The complex consists of 7 separate buildings, creating an atmosphere of small independent villas, surrounded by beautiful gardens.

An open lounge area with this same unbelievable view provides the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail in the evening marvelling at the colours of the sunset. Or enjoy your breakfast, which is a real experience, either you take in the lounge area or in your room.

Prepared with local produce and with emphasis on local delicacies, this breakfast is a godsend you will never forget: home made cookies and jams, pancakes with honey, omelettes prepared with free range eggs – a real treat that will spoil you for ever!

Located at Poulati, Verina Astra is serene and quiet and away-from-it-all, but also very close to Apollonia, the island capital – if you like some more action, that is…
