Lovely spot with a peaceful atmosphere. The calamari was a bit tough, but the wine helped wash it down. I would definitely return!

I walked about a mile down the slightly sketchy, busy road from Brando to grab lunch and go for a swim at this spot. Unfortunately, it's closed! It looks abandoned and out of operation. There's a sign up on the road and some faded menu signs on the post, but a walk down the hill reveals a place that seems to have been permanently shut down. No furniture, no equipment, just a locked-up old building. Maybe it's just closed for the season, as I noticed some recent reviews indicating it was open. It's 80 degrees and sunny, and the season is still in full swing, so it's a bit puzzling. Today is September 8, 2022, and we were there at 1pm.

We walked about a mile down a slightly intimidating, busy road from Brando to have lunch and a swim at this location. Unfortunately, it was closed! The place looked deserted and out of business. There is a sign up on the road and some small, faded menu signs on the signpost. However, walking down the hill reveals a place that seems to have been shut down for good. No furniture, no equipment, just a locked-up old building. Perhaps it is just closed for the season, as I noticed some recent reviews indicating it was open. It was 80 degrees and sunny, and the season is still ongoing, so... It was September 8, 2022, and we were there at 1 PM.
