LOCAL CHARM, GENUINE HOSPITALITY

At Thalassa Studios, we offer more than just a place to stay — we are your home away from home.

 

As a family-run business, we have lived here for over 30 years and take pride in welcoming guests with the warmth and care we would offer to friends.

Our deep roots in the area mean we know Porto Heli inside and out, and we are always happy to share our favorite local spots, hidden beaches, and must-see sights.

 

Many of our guests return year after year, and over time, they become part of our extended family. At Thalassa Studios, it’s not just about comfortable accommodation — it’s about genuine hospitality, local insight, and creating lasting memories by the sea.

MEET THE TEAM

AFTER YEARS OF WORKING IN THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY, PANOS THE FOUNDER OF THALASSA STUDIOS DECIDED TO LIVE HIS LIFE PEACEFULLY AND ENJOY SOME MORE FREE TIME READING HIS COLLECTION OF BOOKS, SWIMMING AND COOKING! THE MANAGEMENT OF THALASSA STUDIOS PASSED TO HIS CHILDREN.

MAGDALENE - YOUR HOST AND YOGA TEACHER

Magda was born and raised at Thalassa Studios, after her parents fell in love with the area and decided to make it a permanent home, founding Thalassa Studios in the 90's.

​

After studying Theatre and Special Education in Athens and working as an actress, her love for creativity, movement, and connection naturally evolved into a passion for teaching and guiding others.

​

Her yoga journey began in India, where she trained in Holistic, Restorative, and Ashtanga Yoga, as well as Pre/Postnatal, Kids Yoga, Acro Yoga, and Yoga Therapy. She is also a certified Pilates and Cross Training instructor. With over 800 hours of certified training and years of teaching experience, Magdalene offers a well-rounded, deeply intuitive approach to practice — one that balances tradition with modern understanding.

​

In recent years, Magdalene has brought her knowledge into the hospitality industry, working with top wellness resorts including Grecotel and AMAN. There, she led sessions in Hatha, Vinyasa, Pranayama, Nidra, Aqua Yoga, Pilates Reformer, and guided nature hikes, offering guests a full-spectrum mind-body experience.

​

Now back in her beloved Porto Heli, Magdalene has returned to her roots to create a space that reflects her values — simplicity, authenticity, and conscious living.

​

At Thalassa Studios, Magda welcome her guests with warmth and genuine hospitality, giving them a place to slow down, reconnect with nature and practice yoga.

PUMA 

Puma is our beloved grandpa dog and the unofficial host! He spends most of his day lounging on the courtyard sofa or trying to communicate with the cats! He brings a little extra warmth and silliness to your stay.

​

LILLY & LUNA

Lilly and Luna are our resident sister cats — curious, gentle, and full of personality. You’ll often find them lounging in the sun, exploring the garden, or quietly keeping guests company. They’re part of the charm here at Thalassa, adding a touch of feline grace to your stay

​

POCO

Poco is our brave and gentle resident cat, who happens to be blind. Despite his lack of sight, he moves around with quiet confidence and a loving spirit. Calm and affectionate, Poco reminds us daily that peace and presence come from within — and that every soul has its own special way of seeing the world.
