Elena Village

This large and lovely hotel is located in the area of Armeos, just after Masouri, but heading in the opposite direction towards Arginonta (north). It’s one of the three Elena hotels on the island, and this one in particular makes itself known to many! 

Amazing view from the hotel

Its colorful and unique design captures the eye and serves as one of Kalymnos’ most visited and busiest hotels. With many rooms to choose from, Elena Village offers a pleasant hotel experience full of amenities and an absolutely spectacular view.

The sight of Telendos right across from the hotel can be enjoyed as you bask in the sun alongside the wonderful, family-friendly pool at Elena Village. The pool bar also contains a nice variety of cocktails, as well as delicious snacks, salads, and Greek comfort foods such as Mousaka or souvlaki.

They even got private pools!

If you’re looking for something more exclusive and private, the hotel features three private pools. The pools and the rooms attached will give you the full luxury experience.

The hotel features a small on-site gym, as well as a full and delicious breakfast served every morning. The rooms vary in size, and are perfect for couples, families, or even a newly wedded couple, as they feature suites that are spacious and beautiful in their design.

When we stayed there, we had a big room with a bedroom with lots of closet space, a huge balcony and a living room with a small kitchen as well. The customer service is great, and the vibe is even better.

Getting ready for our wedding at Elena Village

When we got married in June 2018, we stayed at Elena Village. This was where Christina was getting ready together with her family and friends, before taking some beautiful pictures down by the swimming pool.

Carian Hotel

This hotel is a rather new addition to the island and is already well known as one of the best. The 4-star hotel is also located in the area of Armeos with yet again, the spectacular view of Telendos as well. It contains 32 modern and cozy rooms, two junior suites, a good restaurant and a quaint, modern pool that features a cocktail bar as well.

The service in the hotel is some of the best you’ll receive in Kalymnos, making you feel pampered and cozy throughout your stay. The rooms are all brand new, with good-sized, modern bathrooms and a little balcony for your enjoyment. Each room is fully air-conditioned, which you’ll need in the heat of the summer.

The breakfast is one that you’ll most likely want to take a picture of. It’s neat, delicious, and organized breakfast buffet is one of the best we’ve seen in Kalymnos. Their veranda where guests may sit and enjoy their food is absolutely stunning. It has an amazing view, and most of all, there’s peace and quiet.  

Carian Hotel has a pool as well as their own, private beach.

It’s quite the experience to stay at this gem of a hotel! 

Hotel Plaza Kalymnos

One of the classic and very popular hotels in the Masouri area is Plaza Hotel. This waterfront beach hotel is a staple in the Masouri area, serving thousands of guests per year. Its prime location on the beach attracts many who visit the island all season long. With 59 rooms in total and two luxury suites, you’ll be sure to relax and enjoy your vacation to the max. Each room is loaded with everything one needs for a perfect stay, including a private balcony, which is great for those evening coffee drinkers. A big and cozy bed in every room will provide a lovely stay for anyone.

The pool and snack bar is easily one of the most popular on the beach of Massouri, providing fun for the family, excellent cocktails, coffee, snacks, and absolutely awesome on-beach service. From the hotel and pool area, you may access the beach of Massouri, where there are a number of sunbeds that feature full service from the bar. This means you can just sit back and relax, while drinking your frappe, right on the beach.  

As with most of the hotels on this side of the island, the sunset and view in general is simply stunning. Plaza Hotel continues to be one of the most popular hotels on the island with its location and experience it provides. 

Other hotels and apartments on the island

We went to Kalymnos, with Christina being seven months pregnant in the crazy heat wave of July and August, and with no AC in the house! 🔥😅 That was tough.

In October, our beautiful daughter was born, and we really hope to baptize her at Agios Savvas next summer 🙏🏼💕

Despite the chaos of corona, we hope all of you have created many beautiful memories in 2021 ❤

Καλή Παναγία! 💙 The 15th of August Καλή Παναγία! 💙

The 15th of August is one of the biggest celebrations in the Greek Orthodox faith.

Today we celebrate the Virgin Mary, or Panagia, The Dormition of the Mother of God. This holy day marks the occasion of the Virgin Mary's bodily ascent to heaven at the end of her life. ☦

Χρόνια πολλά 🇬🇷

The favorite beach among many, as the big sandy beach provides comfortable sunbeds with umbrellas, many food and drink options and calm weather (for the most part).

The iconic view with Telendos in the background and the many shops and restaurants just a short distance away, makes this place the perfect spot to spend hours of your day 😀

Relax. Swim. Sunbathe. Repeat. 👌🏼
