The Apanema was created to offer you the intimate ambiance of a boutique hotel, featuring a small number of generously proportioned guestrooms and friendly and discrete service. It is set at a carefully selected area that boasts dazzling sunset vistas, a tranquil setting on the rugged shoreline, and only a 10-minute walk from the Chora. No detail is too small in significance at the Apanema: from the fine Chablis and fresh fruit-salad that welcome you to your room to the choice mattress (soft or firm) or toiletries line (Hermes, Bolton, Brown, Korre) for your bathroom. The emphasis is always on anticipating every desire of each valued guest - a fact that earned the hotel a place in the prestigious Conde Nast Johansens list. The guestrooms have a separate entrance that ensures absolute privacy and are arrayed in an L-shape that embraces the restaurant, lounge, wooden deck, and idyllic pool area with snug loungers. The Junior suites feature a sitting room furnished with a three-seat sofa, coffee-table, and armchairs that lend themselves perfectly to a private breakfast or meal. The studio suites' added offerings include DVD player with home theater and big screen TV. The restaurant serves a sumptuous breakfast with homemade bread and marmalade, pancakes, English muffins, and French toast, until 2:00 pm, under the pergola. The rest of the day, the chef prepares a Mediterranean menu of salads, sandwiches, fresh carpaccio, pasta, and fish and meat dishes accompanied by a fine wine list.
