"The room we stayed in was cleaned everyday and towels and ( coffee pods for the machine) replaced. I was initially slightly dubious about using the sister hotel facilities. But I can assure you it is literally 2 mins away, on a private beach. They have a lovely pool and the most amazing staff. We came for just 5 days and it was just so wonderful to relax and enjoy the surroundings and food and staff’s kindness."

8.2 out of 10, Very good, (10 reviews)
"The property is advertised as a 4 star probably based on the amenities however it’s a 3 star at the most based on UK STANDARDS. The food is limited for vegetarians apart from the array of salads and possibly 4 vegetarian main options. Foods are not not always labelled. However the chef is accommodating if given pre-notice. Rooms needs a revamp, common areas are not cleaned, sun bed are not cleaned daily."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Palaiokastro?
The best area to stay in Palaiokastro is along the coast, particularly near the main beach and the historical Venetian fortress.

This area is the heart of Palaiokastro, offering direct access to the sea and the village's primary attractions. You'll find a selection of hotels and apartments located along the shoreline, providing lovely views of the Aegean Sea. The main road running parallel to the beach connects most of the local tavernas and cafes.

For couples looking for a relaxed beach holiday, staying right by the beach is ideal. You'll be steps away from swimming and sunbathing, and many accommodations offer balconies with sea views, great for enjoying a quiet evening. The nearby Venetian fortress adds a touch of history to your strolls.

Families with children will also appreciate the convenience of staying near the main beach. The calm, shallow waters are suitable for younger swimmers, and having amenities like restaurants and ice cream shops within easy reach makes for a stress-free holiday.
When is the best time to go to Palaiokastro?
The best time to visit Palaiokastro is during the shoulder seasons, specifically from late April to early June and again from September to October.

During these months, the weather is pleasantly warm and sunny, great for outdoor activities like exploring the local beaches or hiking the nearby trails. You'll avoid the intense heat and larger crowds of the peak summer months (July and August), yet still find all the local businesses and attractions fully operational. The sea temperatures are also ideal for swimming.

For couples seeking a relaxing getaway, these periods offer a more peaceful experience. You can enjoy quiet dinners at seaside tavernas, leisurely strolls along the coast, and unhurried visits to historical sites like the Venetian Fortress, all without the bustling crowds that summer brings. The mild evenings are great for enjoying a glass of local wine on a terrace.

Families travelling with children will also appreciate the shoulder seasons. The milder temperatures are more comfortable for little ones, allowing for extended playtime on the beaches without overheating.
