Emelisse Nature Resort
$$$$ | Emblisi Bay, Fiskardo, 28084, Greece
This sprawling village-style resort crowns the scenic hills above Fiskardo, with a grand panorama of the coast and the best facilities on the island. Tennis courts, squash rooms, a pair of pools, a spa, and a private path down to Emblisi Beach mean you're rarely short of things to do—there's even a helicopter pad. Little about it warrants the suffix "nature resort," though island cruises, walks, horseback treks, and diving trips can all be arranged. It's more about the setting, with most apartments—sensibly furnished; shared pools in the executive suites—gazing out to sea and the general air that you've stumbled into some kind of wealthy seaside retirement home. Restaurant Votsalo is a treat, and serves some of the finest seafood in the area, backed up by views to match.
