THE NOBU VIEW
The stay
Peponi offers a Shela waterfront stay with Standard and Superior rooms, family layouts and apartments.
Peponi is an established, family-run hotel on Shela’s waterfront, with rooms and verandas oriented towards the water. Its appeal lies in the combination of a personal scale, coastal architecture and the everyday movement of boats and village life around it.
The operator describes twenty-nine rooms, divided principally into Standard and Superior categories. Superior rooms are distinguished by their position, size and more generous private outdoor areas with swing beds. Family layouts are available in both categories, sometimes as one shared room and sometimes as two rooms with a shared bathroom.
Nobu would consider Peponi for couples and families who want a characterful Shela base rather than a large resort.
