Stay directly in the harbour village when island evenings and early swims are the reason for making the crossing
Ostrella's value is location rather than resort infrastructure. Sleeping in Kastos village means the quay, dinner and the start of island paths are close, and the atmosphere changes noticeably after excursion traffic departs. On an island with very little formal accommodation, a simple local room supports a slower four-night stay better than commuting on daily boats.
The property has a limited independent web presence, so verify directly or through the current booking channel before paying. Confirm the exact room, bathroom, air conditioning, stairs, breakfast, luggage help, cancellation terms and whether the restaurant is operating. Ask how arrival is handled if the boat is delayed. Electricity, water pressure and connectivity can differ from mainland expectations; conserve water and report problems calmly.
