The owner Leatis was only really friendly when we got there, or when constantly buying off him. Not a very friendly bloke at all, had no rapore with the Kids, Barbeque , nice buffet, just one choice of meat. Not value for money. Met some lovely people at Hotel, road outside very busy. shingle beach ok, nice views of little... more

An excellent hotel, get a room at the front for the best views. The owner Laertis works virtually 24hrs a day manning the bar and cooking the meals. Don't miss the BBQ evening, when Laertis comes to life as a top chef and Greek dancer. The best restaurant is Tom's seaside (near the harbour) more

The Sands is very clean and well located, it deserves the high praise others give it but ... the bar is a marbled floored large room with a pool table and a few of the rooms are immediately above, the sound of pool cue on balls, other guests enjoying a lively late night in the bar, the music from the... more

We stayed at the Sands the last week of June and first week in July, this was our 3rd time in Nidri and 2nd at the Sands. We particularly like the Sands because of the position opposite the beach and also for 2 star self catering accommodation in Greece it would be hard to find anywhere better. I'll admit that... more

I visited the Sands hotel at the end of July; I have visited many of the Greek Islands and the main land and found the island very green unlike Crete etc which seem barren by comparison. Nidri itself is as most Greek resorts a small town that follows the coast road. I found that the main street as usual was... more

My boyfriend and I have just come back from the Sands. We stayed for a week which was not long enough! Nidri is a great town and considering it was the middle of the summer holidays was not that busy. The beaches has plenty of space on them and their were plenty of restaurants to eat at all very tasty!!... more

We returned from the Sands Hotel in Nidri on the 24th of July. The hotel is situated at the north end of Nidri across the road from a pebbly/sandy beach, if you are lucky enough to have a sea view then you can look out at a few of the islands dotted about in the bay. It’s a 10 minute... more

This is an excellent hotel for the cost. With a lowly 2* star rating, we would not have booked but for the excellent reviews on Trip Advisor. When we got there, we found that the hotel has a very good reputation in the resort and the reviews are accurate. The hotel is well looked after by the owner who does... more
