Anelia, Sami

Anelia is a private pool villa in Sami, Greece, set at Villa Anelia, a short drive from the harbour and the beaches that define this part of the island. The stay is built around at-home downtime: you can cool off in the swimming pool or use the exercise/lap pool, then unwind with BBQ facilities when the weather is right. Inside, air conditioning helps you keep evenings comfortable, and free wired internet makes it easier to stay connected if you’re working remotely.

Guests typically describe the experience as calm and self-contained, with contactless check-in/check-out adding a smooth, low-fuss arrival. The non-smoking policy suits travelers who prefer cleaner indoor air, and the villa-style setup works well for groups who want space rather than shared hotel corridors.

If you’re planning days out, you’re well placed for some of the area’s best-known sights. Antisamos Beach is about 2 km away for swimming and an easy beach reset, while Melissani Cave is roughly 2.5–3 km from the villa for a memorable cave visit. For a cultural outing, the Monastery of Agios Gerasimos is around 20 km away, offering a different pace from the coast.

Anelia is best for couples and families who want privacy, pool time, and straightforward access to Sami’s beaches and landmarks, without giving up the option to eat out in town when you feel like it. Travelers who value practical comforts often mention the on-site air conditioning and the reliable internet as key reasons they’d return.
