    A Unicorn.

    What I felt about Faros was that I had entered a dream of mine. That is, a place I have always dreamed about somehow, and now the dream had come true. It begins with its being situated far away from any tourist hum, in the middle of an olive grove and garden, and right on the sea. And it has to do with the special quality of light in the place, because the rooms are so filled with light which comes both from the mountain and olives and from the sea. I felt this way about my room too, because not only was it large, with large windows and balcony doors, but, since I had requested and received a corner room, it opened onto an enormous balcony overlooking both the olive groves on the mountain slope and the sea, and with a huge chestnut tree growing onto it. The entire house and grounds are beautiful. One could go on, but perhaps at this stage it is enough to just say it is unique. Like a unicorn, except that it actually exists. Part of this is that the meals at Faros - they serve breakfast and dinner - are truly exceptional. Every dinner was different and excellent in its own way. Yasmine has great pride in her cooking, and justly so. It means that every little thing is wonderfully done and beautifully served. All the staff are very pleasant and friendly. I long to return to Faros.

    We arrived at the hotel a few days before the big storm that was in Pilon, we enjoyed a clean, well-kept place and a stunning entrance to the sea through rocks. During the storm they took care of us with food and water, and Hep cared that we were comfortable despite the difficult situation. The staff is kind and cordial, we will be back soon!

    The road leading to the hotel is not pretty smooth there are areas with ravines and other areas with cliffs. Travellers need a suitable car.

    Hotel view is spectacular. Room is spacious and very clean. Very kind staff. all products served are homemade/ grown in the local business back yard and taste amazing!.Limnionas beach is very close with a great bar and crystal waters.

    Wifi was not good for work so we used our mobile data, which is not such a bad thing in a place like this. It forces you to relax :))

    Amazing! Excellent! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’ve never relaxed as much as we did here. Tranquil, cozy, but you also get to socialize with staff and other guests. Yasmine is a wonderful host and cooks the most delicious food. We never left the property to go eat somewhere else during our 3-day stay. We enjoyed swimming both at the cliff on the hotel property, and the nearby beach (10min walk). This hotel has the absolute best service. We would love to come back!

    The location was private and secluded, with private access to swim in the sea and 2 beutiful beaches in short walking distance. Very quiet and relaxed vibe. A few great tavernas also in walking distance. The staff were incredibly graceous, nice and thoughtful and the breakfast and home-cooked meals were delicious! 100% recommended, as we definitely plan to return ourselves <3

    A hidden gem

    Definitely not a complaint, just a context: expect a steep ride from the main road to the hotel. The road is in good condition though and you will make it safely up and down.

    It is difficult to decide what we liked most: the location, the people , cleanliness, the overall charm of the place? When staff is relaxed, but everything is kept tidy, clean and the service is excellent, you know there is a lot of work but also passion behind. I am a semi-professional traveler, spending about 100 nights per year in hotels. This 2* hotel is much classier than many 4* hotels I've stayed in. They offer organic products from their own farm: freshly squeezed orange juice, eggs, sheep yoghurt, tangerine confiture, honey, to name but a few products. They usually serve one or two delicious main dishes for dinner, and a choice of dips and salads. The access to sea is from cliffs with a pool like staircase for access. I would say it is for good swimmers. We had the best greek coffee here, and we crossed Greece from west to east. The secret is... You have to come and find out for yourself.

    I first visited Faros in 2014, returned in 2015, and only just came back for my third time in 2023. The hotel is absolutely perfect. Yasmine treats her guests like family. The breakfast is above and beyond (for example: eggs, preserves, yoghurt, honey, etc.) and dinners are some of the best examples of Greek home cooking. The hotel itself is like a museum, displaying 19th and 20th century antique objects from the region. The views and proximity to the water are unmatched. Relax under the olive trees above the crystal clear water! I can't wait to return to Faros.

    unless you are looking for complete peace then 2 or 3 nights here is enough as you will have to drive back to the main Rd to go further there are 2 tavernas about 5 minutes walk.

    the property is right next to the sea, it’s lovely and peaceful at the end of a single track Rd. the evening meal was good most of the food is from the small holding great local family run place.

    It is about an hour from the closest town, so get gas before you go into the mountains.

    We were greeted with a warm welcome. The hostess offered for us to stay for dinner and breakfast for a farm-to-table meal. Prices were reasonable for the meals, and the meals were delicious. The property is far from the cities; it is very relaxing and a great location to get away. The gravel road wasn't bad to go down; drive a manual and keep it in first gear the whole time.
