Kalymnos’s most polished beachfront hotel
Kantouni Beach Boutique Hotel brings a genuinely polished resort experience to Kalymnos without becoming impersonal. Its 30 renovated rooms and suites are set around a broad pool facing the sea, with furnished balconies or patios and enough variety for couples and families. Superior doubles take a third guest, while the larger junior and sunset suites sleep up to four; selected suites add an outdoor jacuzzi. Kymata restaurant serves modern Greek food from breakfast through dinner, and the pool bar makes an easy base between swims. Kantouni and Linaria beaches, several casual places to eat and the climbing school are all within walking distance, while complimentary parking helps travellers exploring farther afield.
This is the island’s beach-and-pool choice, not its most convenient base for the famous Massouri crags. Climbers who want to walk out to Grande Grotta every morning will be happier farther north, and a car or scooter is useful for reaching Pothia and the island’s main climbing sector. Room categories also need reading carefully: only certain suites include a jacuzzi, and the amount of outdoor privacy varies. The pool is seasonal and closes in the early evening, while the refined finish brings some of Kalymnos’s higher rates. Expedia rates the hotel a perfect 10.0 from 40 reviews, the strongest meaningful score in the island’s luxury beachfront category. Book it for attentive service, sunsets and days that can happily revolve around the water.
