User reviews
"The beach is absolutely stunning, with soft sand and just a few rocks near the water's edge. The water is incredibly clear and perfect for swimming. Additionally, there are convenient amenities like water sports rentals, a bar, and a restaurant. On top of that, there's a lovely lady who brings delicious donuts from upstairs."

"Sitonia has one of the finest beaches, offering a variety of options. The parking is complimentary, and there is a section where you can lay your towels and set up your umbrellas, as well as another section with sunbeds. It's worth noting that the beach is quite spacious. The water is excellent, and you also have the opportunity to rent non-motorized water floating devices. ..."
