Kiotari is a line of large beach hotels on the open south-east coast, well beyond the busy resorts of the north.
Driving south beyond Lindos
The route crosses the island and runs down the main east coast road, past Kolymbia and Archangelos. Instead of turning off for Lindos, the car continues south to Lardos and then to Kiotari, where the road runs a little inland, parallel to the coast.
South of Lindos the traffic thins out noticeably, and the landscape becomes drier and emptier, with olive groves and low hills. Lardos, a working village with a small square, is the last place with everyday shops before you reach the hotels.
The final approach is via short access roads that branch off towards the individual hotels on the beach.
A resort made of hotels
Kiotari has no traditional village centre. Most accommodation consists of big resort hotels standing apart from each other along a long beach of sand and fine shingle, often with several pools and their own restaurants.
That makes it a good fit for families, couples on all-inclusive stays and anyone who wants space and quiet. For a change of scene, the hill village of Asklipio with its Byzantine church and castle ruins is just inland, and Lindos is around 20 minutes north.
