Almyra Hotel, Fiskardo

Small and cosy with spectacular views

In an idyllic hillside setting above the picturesque seaside town of Fiskardo and enjoying extraordinary views towards the Ionian Sea, and on clear days, Ithaca and Lefkada, the owners of Almyra Hotel, Polychronis and Elina, have created a wonderfully authentic hotel with a cosy and welcoming ambiance.

Fiskardo is an 800m walk down the hill, or the hotel provides a shuttle service; the nearest beach, whitepebble Emblisi is a 15 minute walk away.

Guest rooms are charming and for a bit of extra space choose a superior room, and there's an outdoor pool and a pool for children.

A buffet breakfast of local and home-baked goods is available each morning, delightful lunches are served on the terrace, or the kitchen can prepare lovely picnic baskets (payable locally) for days out. Although evening dining is only available once a week when a special barbecue is organised, there are plenty of dining venues in Fiskardo, including the hotel owner's harbour-side restaurant, Tassia.

Not all facilities are complimentary and are subject to seasonal demand.
