Spetses Reviews -General

Our cruise ended in Pireaus and we wanted to spend 3 days on an outer island before spending our last 3 days in Athens. In planning our 3 days in Spetses we thought we might get bored and considered a day trip to the Peloppenese (ferry or water taxi to Porto Heli, rental car, and touring archeological sites). But we found Spetses to be so relaxing, quiet, and peaceful that we were content to just enjoy our discovery of heaven on earth. We stayed at the Nissia-it is beautiful and the service was excellent. We ate mostly local food and drinks ("fish ala Spetsiota", fried cheese "saganaki", Greek salads, souvlaki, coffee frappe, and Greek wines) and enjoyed it all. Service people were very efficient and friendly. In all, our dining experiences were very positive. Our visit was early in the season and mid week so there were few other tourists and we had Spetses to ourselves.
