Abramis Roomsin Kythira is a cute little neighbourhood of lovely suites.

The Best Hotels in Kythira are primarily located in Kythira Town (the island’s capital) or at Avlemonas, Livadi, and Agia Pelagia. Kythira is truly a very unique island as it’s located where no other islands are around, south of the Peloponnese. Still, it’s full of history and has a unique landscape. Kythira is ideal for families and couples who want to explore an island with so much to offer, but I have to say that the hotels on the island are smaller (which is not bad).

Kythira doesn’t belong to any of the well-known Greek island groups but administratively belongs to Attica (Athens region), which is a complete anomaly in my opinion, but anyway… It has extremely rough terrain that has also been shaped by the strong winds of the area. The island probably has one of the most prominent Venetian castles in Greece, built in the 1200s, and it’s a must-see while you are there.

Kythira island is quite far from Athens, and you can reach it by taking a ferry from the town of Neapoli in south Peloponnese (it takes 1.5 hours ) or by a ferry from the town of Gytheio (it takes 3 hours) or (and much easier), just take a direct 45-minute flight from Athens. Thankfully, the island has an airport for domestic flights from (and to) Athens that could operate only between May and October for the summer high season (always check Ferryhopper for the latest ferry schedules and Booking.com Flights for the most up-to-date flights to Greek islands).

You definitely need a car in Kythira and most probably a 4×4 if you want to reach some of the beaches, and there are a lot of them in very rough terrain. There are local buses on the island, but they won’t take you anywhere and they are not that frequent.
