Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Stavros?
The best area to stay in Stavros is the main beach area, particularly around the iconic Zorba's Beach.

This area is the heart of Stavros, known for its distinctive camel-shaped mountain backdrop and the crescent-shaped bay that featured in "Zorba the Greek." The main road, often bustling with activity in the evenings, runs parallel to the beach, offering easy access to tavernas, cafes, and a few local shops. You'll find most of the village's amenities within a short stroll from the beachfront.

Couples looking for a relaxing beach holiday will find this area perfect. You're steps away from the calm, shallow waters of Zorba's Beach, ideal for swimming and sunbathing. In the evenings, you can enjoy a leisurely meal at one of the many beachfront tavernas, watching the sunset over the bay.
