I left feeling like I made a friend and had became a member...

From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of the family. Tania, who runs the hotel, is truly remarkable — she personally sat down with us and mapped out our adventures in Kythera, sharing insider tips on the best restaurants, the most stunning beaches and the must-see spots on the island. Each morning began with a delicious, beautifully prepared breakfast that made the days feel even more special.
