Cape Napos
Faros aparthotel with pool views and a hot tub
About this hotel
Cape Napos sits slightly back from Faros Beach, 1.9 km away, trading immediate beach access for a swimming pool with its own view and a hot tub, a combination not many properties in this quieter village offer. Each unit has a fully equipped kitchenette alongside air-conditioning and a private bathroom, and the pool bar and outdoor seating area cover most of the day without needing to drive anywhere. Free on-site private parking rounds out the practicalities, and Chrisopigi Monastery, 9 km away, makes for a worthwhile half-day trip to see the chapel on its rock. Guests rate the stay 9.7 out of 10 here, and it is earned on a genuine sea view rather than a glimpse, the sort of detail that matters more on a small island than a long amenities list.

Our take
Cape Napos suits travellers who want a resort-style pool and hot tub in a quieter setting than Kamares or Platis Gialos, with the trade-off of a short drive rather than a walk to the beach. The kitchenette adds self-catering flexibility. Anyone who specifically wants to walk straight onto sand from their room should look at a beachfront property instead.
- ✓Use the hot tub in the evening after a day at Faros Beach, it is a genuine standout amenity here
- ✓Drive rather than walk the 1.9 km to Faros Beach with children or heavy beach gear
- ✓Cook at least a few meals using the kitchenette, groceries in Faros itself are limited
Why we love it
- Swimming pool with a view
- Hot tub on site
- Fully equipped kitchenette
- Quiet Faros village setting
Why guests love itCape Napos is an aparthotel in Faros, a quieter corner of Sifnos, with a pool that looks out over the landscape, a sun terrace, a garden, a bar and a hot tub. Units have a kitchenette, which helps families keep meal times flexible, and free parking is on site. Faros Beach is about 1.9 km away, so a car or a walk is needed for the sea. I would choose it for a calm base with a good pool; a 9.7 score from 247 reviews is excellent.
