Family-run Villa Maria enjoys each access to Vlihadia Beach, 492 feet away. It features an outdoor pool with sun-lounger terrace and a restaurant with backyard playground.
Just a 8-minute walk from Massuri Beach and 0.9 miles from Melitsachas Beach, Eirinis house with amazing view in Masouri Kalymnos features accommodations in Kalymnos with a terrace.
Just a few steps from Kantouni Beach and a 5-minute walk from Linaria Beach, Kalymnos, très belle villa avec vue sur la mer features accommodations in Kalymnos, with a garden and a shared lounge.
Kalymnos town itself is hot, busy and vibrant. It lacks the polish and charm of Kos town but offers a more authentic experience that's less touristy as a result.
It's worth hiring a car to explore the island as it's more attractive than the views from the main town suggest. The beach at Arginonta is worth a stop. Empiricos in the north is very sweet and the drive over the mountain pass to Palionnisos is worthwhile. The small port of Vathys is charming but best avoided at lunchtime when the tourist day trip boats from Kos descend en masse.

We had a short trip to the island, further shortened by the delayed ferry due to bad weather. There is so much to climb on Kalymnos that 1 week is barely enough to scratch the surface, although we did sample some excellent crags, Odyssey and Sea Breeze being particular favourites. So much choice and variety. We stayed in Elies in the interior which was 10 to 15 minutes from the main areas around Myrthies and Masaurie. In hindsight it would be better to stay there, although nowhere is more than 20 minutes drive it feels. Most people use scooters which is easiest to get around. There are some good places to eat in Myrthies but most were closed at the beginning of the season. Fatolitis in Masaurie definitely had the best salads. There was a limited number of vegan options in most places but that might have been partly due to the early season.

The island is very nice, there are beautiful trees all along the way from the port through the whole city. The city is interesting, it stretches in the valley, we haven't seen that in Greece. The island has a large population that lives all year round. The houses are very nice and big, with yards full of flowers. The food in the restaurants is very high quality. Kalimnos deserves a longer stay even for those of us who are not rock climbers.

3rd time in Kalymnos but first time i actualy stayed more...
3rd time in Kalymnos but first time i actualy stayed more than a day. This time 2 nights, 3 full days. It was part of Kos /Kalymnos/Athens trip.
9 nights in Kos, 2 nights in Kalymnos and 1 night is Athens.
We took 9.00AM ferry from Mastichari to Potia in Kalymnos,capital, 1hr trip because it was big ferry. Smaller ferry is faster and take only people, no cars. Big ferry was 7.50 euro so pretty cheap.
I ordered buggy online but guy came with small and old car, appologised, he had 1 buggy only and tourist gad some accident. Well he gave us good price for car, 20.00 euro per day, we didnt had a choice! Our booking was in Vlychadia, small village away from tourist spots and that was real HIT!! Problem was to get there, drivining in Potia is crazy. I thought Ponta Delgada in Azores has tiniest streets in the world but no, some of streets we drive in Potia were so tiny we had to fold mirrors to get through and our car was not bigger than Merc Smart !!!! Very challenging, my wife is witness how much i was swearing. Vlychadia and Kazonis studios were perfect, real greek holiday with local fishermens, super friendly people. we didnt really go anywhere else, we didnt want, we just enjoyed views, snoorkeling and fishing. Shopping in market is much more expensive than Kos, Kalymnos is one of the richest Greek Islands and you can tell this looking at houses, they all nice.
Airport - there is 1 plane a day from Kalymnos ! coming from Athens and returning to Athens, Airport i sclosed and open only 2 hours before departure, views are amazing!! it is on the top of mountain and take off is crazy, like the one in Nepal, dont remember airport name.

Great people, especially Georgios!
Great people, especially Georgios! I (23) was there with my aunt (60) and we both enjoyed the place. It was calm in the beginning of October and it felt like a perfect Greek vacation place. Better than Kos for sure, especially for people who are not in love with the jammed places.

Kalymnos is an excellent rock climbing destination - as of 2019, there are almost 4000 sport routes established there. Friendly Greek people, excellent food, sunny warm fall days, easy to get around with scooters, a lifetime of rock - this place is worth coming back to.
Everything about our stay was great! The host was super communicative from when we booked our stay through when we checked out. She offered to pick us up from the ferry and drove us to the property, provided a small amount of groceries, and even brought us an traditional Greek meal. The location was amazing - 10-15-minute drive to most climbing areas on the island and just a 5-minute walk to a beach. Everything was in working order and very clean. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely recommend this property!
Maria and her family were wonderful hosts who went out of their way to accommodate me and my friend. They were especially flexible with us around our check out when our climbing group went a little bit later than expected. Also, we enjoyed a few meals in their restaurant and everything was so delicious, especially the lamb kleftiko with fasolada and salad. Truly beautiful people and the perfect spot to crash during a week of climbing in Kalymnos.
Everything is perfect. The appartment is huge, comfortable, lovely, clean, with everything you need. The location is great. Really close to climbing sectors, you dont need to rent motor bike. Close to the beach and the centre of the town with markets, bars ... Only few stairs away... the owner is just amazing. So nice, lovely, Anna just made us a perfect holidays. Oh and she cooks so tasty food! We Will definitely come back.
Location on the beach was excellent. Our time spent having breakfast and early evening drinks watching the sunset on the main terrace was great. The bed was comfortable indeed and the nespresso machine in the room was convenient for morning coffee looking at the view. The staff was very chill, friendly and nonchalant. The hotel beach bar offers free sun beds and an outdoor shower to rinse off before going to your room.
This room was a dream on the island of Kalymnos. I came with my husband immediately after our wedding on Kos and this room was a refuge and sanctuary! I wish we could've stayed longer! The small balcony plus brand new renovated facilities made this the perfect place to stay. We felt so comfortable and loved being able to walk to Kantouni beach, as well as the Kantouni hotel, for breakfast for sunset cocktails.
Absolutely perfect in every way. Super modern room, great location right in front of the water to swim. Super view back over Massouri and all the hustle and bustle of the town seems so far away! We did a hike to the top of the mountain, climbed and went to the beaches, all without a car or scooter. We ate lunch and dinner at a different restaurant every time in our 5 day stay.
A period mansion with lots of charm Not too far from the town centre. Lovely views of the hills behind town from the balconies and patios. Well equipped comfortable rooms. Welcoming staff. The swimming pool is great . The buffet breakfast is substantial and really enjoyable. We have stayed before and intended to return soon. A nice start to our Month on Kalymnos
I will highly recommend the lions house to anybody , stayed 4 weeks location for me was fantastic ,clean ,accommodating will recommend to my friends and family anytime, the manager of the rental property will get in contact with me to make sure if I needed any assistance with my stay. definitely when I return to kalymnos I will return to the lions house .
We enjoyed our stay very much. Maria was great and very helpful - she advised us on where to go climbing, and where to eat, she even offered us a drive to the port. All in all a great experience, a fantastic apartment, and an even better owner. Would recommend 10/10. If you're thinking of where to stay in Kalymnos, this is the place to be.
Great location and a home-like environment, probably because the owner lives there for part of the year. The owner responded quickly to any issues we had, and there were unfortunately more than a few. The kitchen was well equipped and easy to navigate. Enjoyed the local restaurants and Kalymnos hospitality very much.
Great facilities with a nice swimming pool area with its bar.
The rooms have a lot of space and a balcony. We had sea front view which was absolutely great.
The staff is also very nice and can speak a variety of languages.
Overall very relaxing place to stay in Kalymnos.
The room was very clean and well decorated with high quality furniture!! Balcony with an amazing view ! The best spot to stay in kalymnos! Highly recommended!!!! Miss Liana is really polite and helpful!!! Thank you for everything! See you next summer!!
