Map & location
Kantouni, Kalymnos Island, Greece
Kantouni Beach Boutique Hotel has a prime spot on the western edge of Kalymnos Island, directly on the sands of Kantouni’s long, golden beach. The resort itself is a relaxed local favourite, with traditional tavernas, beach bars and green hillsides creating an authentic Greek-island feel.
You’re in the resort centre, so everything is an easy stroll away – from seafront tavernas to low-key cafés. For a change of scenery, Panormos Beach is nearby, while Kalymnos Town (Pothia), with its harbourfront restaurants, museums and ferries to neighbouring islands, is just a short drive away.
- • Beach on the beachfront
- • Resort centre (Kantouni) on the doorstep
- • Ferry port for boats to Kos Town and nearby islands 6km
- • Kalymnos Town (Pothia) short drive away
- Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 45 minutes including ferry crossing from Kos to Kalymnos (subject to ferry schedules and weather).
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Life here naturally revolves around the water. The hotel’s outdoor freshwater pool is edged by a generous sunbathing terrace with sunbeds, parasols and Bali beds – ideal for long, lazy days stretched out with a book and a chilled drink. Complimentary pool towels are provided, so you can travel light.
Step through the hotel’s grounds and you’re straight onto Kantouni’s soft, sandy beach. With its clear, swimmable waters, mountain backdrop and mellow beach bars, it’s one of the island’s most attractive stretches of coast. Panormos Beach is within easy reach too if you fancy trying another bay during your stay.
Spa, sports & wellness
This hotel is all about simple barefoot luxury rather than big-resort bells and whistles. While there’s no full spa or gym on site, Kalymnos itself is an open-air playground, famed for its rock climbing, hiking and boat trips – many available nearby.
On property, you’ll find:
• Stylish outdoor lounge spaces and terraces
• Free Wi‑Fi throughout the hotel
• Reception and concierge-style services to help with local tips, taxis and excursions
Occasional evening entertainment between May and October, such as live music and DJ sets, adds a little atmosphere without disturbing the hotel’s overall peaceful feel.

Food & drink
Kantouni Beach Boutique Hotel keeps things effortlessly stylish on the food-and-drink front. The seafront Kymata Restaurant & Cocktail Bar combines buffet and à la carte service, showcasing international favourites alongside Italian and Greek dishes – ideal for lingering breakfasts and sundowner dinners with the twinkling Aegean as your backdrop. Highchairs are available for little ones.
There’s also a relaxed pool bar open from mid-morning until the evening, pouring everything from iced coffees and fresh juices to local, international and premium-brand drinks. During high season (1 June–31 October) the bar service typically runs later into the night, making it a lovely spot for a final drink under the stars.
A smart dress code may apply in the restaurant (no beachwear), and some services, opening times and menu details can change by season or board basis. Always check the latest information locally on arrival.
