A friendly, family-owned hotel right across from Skala's long sandy beach, with a good-sized pool, lemon-tree gardens and the village tavernas five minutes' walk away. It is relaxed, affordable and well placed for families who want the beach and shops within toddler-friendly reach.
Our verdict
A great-value, walkable choice for families: sandy Skala beach across the road and the village on the doorstep, with none of the resort fuss.
The rooms
Simple, well-kept standard, triple and family rooms in gardens of lemon trees and bougainvillea, most sleeping 3 to 4, a short walk from the beach and Skala village.
