Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing stay at El Sol Hotel, where the stunning view of the sea and Kithira made every moment special. The facilities were nice, though they did show some age, yet the care put into maintaining them was clear. The breakfast was truly a highlight, and I found myself wanting to stay longer because of the warm hospitality from the staff. My only regret? Not taking advantage of their guidance to explore more of this beautiful island.

I had an very nice experience at El Sol Hotel. the views of the sea and Kithira were simply stunning. The facilities, while showing a little age, were well-kept and comfortable.

My stay at El Sol Hotel was fantastic, with stunning views of the sea and Kithira that made for a perfect backdrop. The hotel facilities were well-maintained, but you could tell they were showing their age a bit. The breakfast was truly amazing, especially the homemade soup, and the hospitality from the staff made all the difference. However, I did feel I could have easily overstayed just to enjoy more of the ambiance.
