Sea Front Bungalows Near Mikri Vigla Beach
There is a difference between a room with a sea view and a room built right by the sea. At Kontos Studios, the Sea Front Bungalow is the second kind, positioned directly by the water rather than a short walk from it. This article looks at who this room type actually suits and what to expect.
Key takeaways
- The Sea Front Bungalow is 35-42 m2 for 1-3 guests, with a bedroom and a separate living room with sofa bed.
- It is the property's only beachfront room type, built right by the water.
- Restaurants and cafes are around 200 metres away, so being by the sea does not mean being cut off.
- It is the first room to book out for July and August; the Deluxe One Bedroom Apartment is the closest alternative.

What The Sea Front Bungalow Offers
The Sea Front Bungalow measures 35-42m2 and fits 1-3 guests. It includes a bedroom with a double bed and a separate living room with a sofa bed, which makes it more flexible than a standard studio, useful for a couple who wants extra space, or a small group traveling together. Like the other room types at the property, it includes a kitchenette or equivalent cooking facilities, a private veranda, air conditioning, and the sea view that Kontos Studios guarantees across all rooms, according to the facilities page.
Who This Room Type Suits
Couples wanting maximum proximity to the water. If a short walk to the sea view still feels like one step too many, this is the room that removes that step entirely. See also sea view studios for a couples getaway in Mikri Vigla for a broader look at romantic stays in the area.
Small groups or friends traveling together. The sofa bed in the living room means the bungalow can comfortably host three people without anyone sleeping on the floor, which studio rooms cannot offer.
Kitesurfers who want gear close at hand. Being right by the sea shortens the walk to the water sports facilities even further, useful on windy mornings when every extra minute matters. Our guide on planning a kitesurf trip to Mikri Vigla goes into more detail on choosing a base for a kite holiday.
Families with slightly older kids. While the Family Apartment is the better fit for younger children needing two separate bedrooms, the bungalow’s open living space can work for families with older kids who are comfortable on a sofa bed.

What Is Nearby
Being right by the sea does not mean being cut off from everything else. Restaurants, cafes and bars sit around 200 meters from the property according to the location page, and Kontos Restaurant, 300 meters away, serves local dishes right by the water. Windsurfing and kitesurfing facilities are roughly 100 meters away.
A Day In The Bungalow
Being built right by the sea changes the rhythm of a stay in small but noticeable ways. Morning coffee on the veranda comes with the sound of the water rather than a view of it from a distance. The living room with its sofa bed also means the bungalow doubles as a place to relax during the hottest part of the afternoon without needing to retreat to a bedroom, useful for groups who want a shared space as well as somewhere to sleep. In the evening, the short walk to Kontos Restaurant or Afros Beach Cafe Restaurant Bar rounds out a day that barely requires leaving the immediate area.
How It Compares To Other Room Types
Guests choosing between the bungalow and the Deluxe One Bedroom Apartment are usually weighing proximity to the sea against a fully equipped kitchen and a separate living area further back from the water. Both include a private veranda and guaranteed sea views, according to the facilities page, so the decision often comes down to whether direct beachfront position matters more than kitchen size for your particular trip.
Booking Considerations
Because the Sea Front Bungalow is the property’s only beachfront room type, it is worth booking early for peak weeks in July and August when the meltemi is strongest and demand for beachfront rooms is highest. If the bungalow is not available for your dates, the Superior Double Studio is a simple alternative with the same guaranteed sea view. Full details on all room types are on the accommodation page.
Practical Details Worth Knowing
Like the rest of the property, the Sea Front Bungalow includes a modern bathroom, a safe, satellite TV and a hairdryer, according to the facilities page. Air conditioning is standard across room types as well, which matters given how warm and still the air can feel on non wind days, even this close to the water. None of these are unique selling points on their own, but together they mean the bungalow does not sacrifice comfort for its beachfront position.
When To Book
As the property’s only beachfront room type, it tends to be in higher demand, which can make availability tighter than for the studio or apartment room types. If your travel dates are fixed, particularly across July and August, reaching out early through the contact page is worth doing rather than waiting until closer to the trip.
Alternatives If The Bungalow Is Fully Booked
If your dates fall outside availability for the Sea Front Bungalow, it is worth comparing against the Superior Double Studio or Deluxe One Bedroom Apartment, both of which remain within the same short walk of the water and share the same guaranteed sea view. The accommodation page lists current availability across all four room types.
