August in Greece is high season for all native Greeks to go on holiday. At the same time Greece is a mekka for tourists from all parts of the world during the summer.months especially. Kithnos is the secret pearl of the cyclades and mostly frequented by Greeks. We spent 10 amazing nights at Guardiero and enjoyed every minute.

Very steep road, and most of it mud road...For us this was an issue, as we wanted to move around. For those who wish to stay there, then I suppose this would be less of a problem.||||We would surely consider staying...
Read moreThis place is an oasis. If you are looking for calm, isolated vacations in the heart of nature with beautiful accommodation this is your place. The rooms are bungalows right on the beach (literally 20 steps away). The rooms are fully equiped and with the beautiful cycladic architecture. We stayed in the blue room. However the biggest asset of that place is Ms. Maria and her mum. The definition of professionalism and ideal hospitality. It also has a restaurant by the beach for drinks, snacks and food. At night you sleep with the sound of waves and the mesmerizing songs of the night insects....
