In addition to the two already mentioned, nearby is the Atspas beach, a sandy beach with a volleyball court, umbrellas, sunbeds, crystal clear water and parking space. Near the town, towards Skala Prinos, there are many wild coves, and in the opposite direction, towards Limenaria, there is the beautiful and popular Tripiti beach. The facility was built in 1996, but the owners invest in it every year. There are 12 studios on offer (eight four-bed and four three-bed), spread over three floors. All have a view of the sea. On the first floor there are four four-bed studios (30m2) with one French and two single beds, while on the second and third floors there are the remaining eight units (25m2), two of which on each floor have three single beds and the other two have three single beds and a sofa for one person. If necessary, a fourth, extra bed can be inserted in several studios. The studios are very decent and clean. On the first floor, there are stone floors and partitions, which makes the ambience unusual, but certainly beautiful, and such materials also give additional freshness to the space, which is desirable in the summer months, regardless of the existence of air conditioning. The units are equipped with classic, wooden furniture. The bathrooms are medium in size with a shower. The kitchens are equipped and have a stove with two hotplates, an extractor fan and a refrigerator. All necessary utensils are provided. Air conditioners exist in all accommodation units and their use is included in the price. Also, there is a smaller TV hanging on the wall and internet access. The studios are cleaned daily and towels and bed linen are changed every three days. There is practically no yard, except on the third floor, where at the back of the house there is a wider space (corridor) outdoors, with greenery, flowers, a porch and a stone table with benches. The view from there is the most beautiful and overlooks the surrounding hills, Sunset Beach and the sea. In front of the house there is an extension on the road with eight to nine parking spaces. The owners claim that the extension is used exclusively by the guests of their villa because the road next to the accommodation is not busy. When driving from the direction of Prinos, you see Skala Marijes, turn right from the highway and pass Sunset beach, then turn half left up the hill to the church, from where you follow the road to the left (not towards the center) for another 100m until you see Lia Studios on the right side of the street.
