Fodor's Expert Review Semeli

Location is everything at this centrally located hotel. Named after a Greek nymph, this quiet and convenient hotel is right in the middle of the action and yet many of its rooms offer distant sea views. The hotel’s architecture reflects the island’s Cycladic minimalism with a perfect balance of the native style mixed with contemporary glass and stone. Rooms are handsome with strong bathrooms. Though convenient to the town, the pool area, with its terraces and garden view, will tempt you to linger. If outside beckons, try the hotel's annex bar at Little Venice with blissful views of the water and windmills.
