About
Niki Studios Sea-Front occupies one of the most enviable positions in the charming coastal village of Petra, where the gentle curve of the seafront promenade meets the open Aegean. Sitting directly on the waterfront, these studios offer guests the rare pleasure of waking to unobstructed sea views and the soft sound of waves, with the iconic monolithic rock of Petra — crowned by the Church of the Sweet-Kissing Virgin — rising dramatically in the near distance. The setting alone places Niki Studios among the most atmospheric accommodation options on this stretch of the Lesvos coast.
The studios are well suited to independent travellers seeking a self-catering base from which to explore the northwestern corner of the island. With kitchenette facilities and the freedom of your own space, guests can shop at the village market, prepare simple meals with local olive oil and fresh produce, and return each evening to a terrace or balcony with the sea spread out before them. Petra's waterfront restaurants and cafés are steps away, making it easy to dine on fresh seafood or linger over coffee as the fishing boats come and go.
Beyond the immediate pleasures of sun, sea, and village life, Niki Studios serves as a convenient gateway to the broader region. The petrified forest of Lesvos, the thermal baths at Eftalou, and the traditional pottery village of Agiasos are all within reach, as is the extraordinary birdwatching terrain of the island's interior. For travellers who want to experience authentic Greek island hospitality without sacrificing proximity to the water, this sea-front address in Petra makes an excellent and memorable choice.
Before you go
What to expect
Step onto your balcony and the Aegean fills the frame — the monolithic rock of Petra topped by its hilltop church rising directly ahead, fishing boats rocking gently in the harbour below. Days here settle into an easy rhythm: morning coffee on the terrace, a short walk to the village beach, and dinner at one of the waterfront tavernas as the light fades over the water. The kitchenette lets you pick up fresh produce from the village market and cook on evenings you'd rather stay in.
Best time to visit
Late May through October suits a stay here best; June and September offer the same sea views and breezes as midsummer but with quieter promenade evenings and less heat.
How to get there
Petra is in the northwest of Lesvos, roughly an hour's drive from Mytilene — head north through Kalloni and follow signs toward Petra, where the sea-front studios sit directly on the waterfront promenade.

Located on Petra seafront. Just a short walk into the village. Our room was spacious and had the use of one private balcony and a communal terrace. Both catching the sun at different times of the day. A quiet complex with friendly staff and use of the pool at Niki suites a 2 min walk away which has a bar for food and drinks if you wish. Very happy at Niki seafront apartments. I would definitely return to room 14.

We absolutely love this place! The owners and staff are very nice, helpful and welcoming and make you feel at home right away. It is so quiet and clean. The sea is just in front of the hotel. The hotel has the best pool area we have ever seen. Green and beautyful with olive trees, pool bar and the best sun beds. Don’t miss the delicious breakfast. It’s such a treat! The center of Petra is just a short walk away.

From arrival to departure we had such a wonderful time. Rooms spotless.beds comfortable. Sheets and towels changed regularly . Niki Mario and Leva always happy to chat with a smile. Nothing is too much trouble. Nikis breakfast is a must keeping you full for the day. The gardens are beautiful to sit and relax in. Look forward to returning to Petra and definately back to Niki seafront studios. X

Nikis seafront studios is a great place to stay. Ideally situated close to the sandy beach of Petra and close to the shops of the village itself. The rooms are clean and spotless. I have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation which is run jointly by Niki and her son Mario. You can order a breakfast which is served in the delightful gardens. Highly recommended.
