Kefalos Beach Tourist Village

Clean, safe and affordable.We liked this hotel for its easy walkability to nearby restaurants and bus stops. You could walk to some of the nearby attractions, which will only become easier once the ocean walk is fully completed. The room itself was clean, though dated, and the ocean view was very nice. The air conditioner worked well during very hot weather and was quiet. Some things to think carefully about if you want to book here: 1) The beach is pretty poor in front of the hotel. There are only small areas that aren’t rocky and weedy, so going into the sea is not a popular activity, but it certainly can be done. You can also walk a few minutes along the water to a nearby public beach which has nice sand. 2) There is not a lot of space around the pool, and what is there doesn’t offer much shade. There’s a lot of demand for beach chairs. We chose to sit in older chairs under smaller umbrellas on a grassy area facing the sea which is adjacent to the pool deck. It’s not as crowded and still allowed for a quick dip into the pool whenever we were so inclined. 3) This is not a quiet resort. They run a poolside bar/nightclub that is noisy until past midnight. The noise levels seemed to vary depending on crowd size and the type of entertainment. Of 6 nights we stayed I was only kept awake by the noise one night, but we did hear it every night. If you’re into nightlife, or coming with a group or family, I think it would be great, but it’s not really a romantic getaway.

I have stayed at Kefalos Beach a couple of times now and really love it. They have great facilities, the shop onsite stocks most things you need if you can’t make it to a supermarket. We had breakfast included which was lovely. There was so much choice that for the four days we were there I had something different. It is in a great location, we hired a car as we were visiting family but you can easily walk to the local restaurants and bars.

It was really good. The breakfast was rich and the crew was refilling all the food. We got a room 50 feet from the waterfront. The kids club was great, and we lucked up on the weather. Great place and great value!
