Coco-Mat Eco Residences
Hotel Overview
In the past, COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos was a complex of mining houses, built in 1910, recently restored, respectful of both traditional local architecture and eco-friendly contemporary practices.
Located on the beautiful Vagia beach, COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos hotel invites you to relax, slow down and really enjoy your time on an island that can give you the authentic Cycladic experience, albeit alternative, without any tourist hassle.
The philosophy of the business is focused on the exclusive use of natural materials to construct harmonious spaces, where each object has a particular use, but also contributes to maintaining the physical and mental tranquility of its user.
Location
Serifos' most beautiful sea bed is located just 10 minutes north of the port, at the entrance of Koutalas bay.
In Vagia you will find a natural haven from the Aegean summer winds, a lush sandy shore, crystal clear waters and a glorious sunset. The colorful pebbles at the bottom of the sea and the sweet water that streams from parts of the beach give Vagia a unique character, which has earned it a spot in the list of Natura 2000 protected sites.
With utter respect for Vagia's natural beauty, COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos hotel blends in with the scenery perfectly, allowing you to make the best of your stay by the sea day and night.

Food & Beverages
THE SPACE
The lounge bar at COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos is an extension of our hospitable environment. Architecturally, the space keeps up with the industrial look of the rest of the premises, remaining respectful of the Cycladic tradition, with some fitting colonial style references.
Here you can relax and enjoy your meal and drink, watching Serifos' sky changing colours over the beautiful beach of Vagia.
Each morning, with the sun sparkling on the sea, the breakfast buffet offers all necessary treats for you to start your day full on energy. Later on, after you've had your swim, the chef's suggestions for your lunch or light snack will add smell, texture and taste to your day, inspired by local produce and Serifos' cuisine. You can also order refreshments, drinks and cocktails, made to order with fresh – and frequently unexpected – materials, at any time of day – or night.
And when the sunset paints the sea red, dinner is served next to the waves and the day ends just as it began: full of wonderful memories, tastes and pictures from Vagia beach.
THE FLAVOURS
Chef Dimitris Kantarakis is the inspirational and creative force behind the menu served at COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos. With previous residences at some of the best restaurants in Greece, he has ventured his own spaces, with “Holy Goat” in Athens deserving a special mention, as the restaurant that introduced the term 'punk bistrot' in Greek gastronomy.
Aiming at the creation of new tasting experiences through the combination of traditional tastes with unconventional materials, chef Kantarakis becomes a true original by cooking fresh produce from the οrchards, the farms and the sea of Serifos using innovative molecular techniques. The resulting dishes elevate the customer's expectations and upgrade food into a multi-sensory indulgence.
The restaurant at COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos only serves fresh fish fished by local fishermen, certified Serifos meat, vegetables grown in local orchards and bread baked daily on site. All recipes are cooked with olive oil, leaving butter and foods with high amounts of fat, conservatives or flavour enhancers out of the menu.
A refreshing and invigorating bar menu accompanies each dish or moment of your day, including creative cocktails, tea varieties, freshly squeezed juices and herbs from our herbal bar. At COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos, we make a conscious effort to reduce sugar and preservatives in all drinks served at our bar.
A LITTLE SOMETHING EXTRA
Το COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos hotel follows the principles of real Greek hospitality and offers personalized services, adapted to each visitor's needs and wishes.
So, if you wish the residence to have a pantry fully equipped with fresh produce, allowing you the independence to cook your own meals throughout your stay, you only need to ask for it during the booking process. Same goes for our herbal bar: you can have one at your disposal at your residence.
All drinks and refreshments may also be served at the lounging area on the beach, right by the sea or at the comfort of your room.
You may also enjoy your breakfast in bed or live the unique experience of a gourmet dinner served under the stars and accompanied by the sound of the waves on the shore of Vagia beach.
Driving directions
When you reach Livadi port, just follow the signs towards Livadakia and keep going to the south west side of the island. Vagia is located just 6,5 klm from the port and you can easily access the beach by car.
Distances in Serifos are rather short and you won't need more than 35 minutes to travel even to the most remote spots on the island.
If you don't have your own vehicle, COCO-MAT Eco Residences Serifos hotel offers a free transport service from the port to Vagia beach.
