Casa Mediterraneo
Intimate, design-forward boutique B&B with strong multi-cultural aesthetic. Feels like staying in a thoughtfully curated summer home, not a hotel. Unhurried, quiet, creatively eclectic.
The shared airport shuttle from Kastellorizo's tiny airstrip costs €7 per person and drops you at the hotel — staff will haul luggage up the 20 steps to reception
Why It Matters
Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels selected. One of the only well-designed boutique stays on Kastellorizo — Greece's easternmost and most remote inhabited island, 12km² and closer to Turkey than to Athens. Founded by architect-hotelier Marie Rivalant-Lazarakis, interior designer Luc Lejeune, and architect Grégoire Du Pasquier. Each of the six suites occupies an entire floor of a restored manor house and has sea views. Built almost entirely from natural and reclaimed local materials, with solar panels for heating.
Six suites, three restored mansions, one spectacularly remote Greek island. Casa Mediterraneo occupies a hillside on the sunset side of Kastellorizo, gazing straight down at the harbour and the Aegean beyond. It rejects the white-and-blue Cycladic playbook entirely — warm terracotta facades, rainbow stained glass, Istanbul rugs, and Turkish hemp fabrics fill rooms that draw on Greek, Ottoman, and Cappadocian design in equal measure. Open May through October only.
Where You'll Stay
6 room types available
Family Suite
A 44m² suite designed for families with a double bed on the ground level and two single beds tucked into a mezzanine above. Private furnished terrace with sea views. Traditional decor with marble sinks, blue Greek tiles, and wooden details. Stairs only — no lift access.
Double + 2 singles (mezzanine) · 44 sqm
Kappadokia Room
The most unconventional room in the house at 28m². Inspired by Cappadocia cave dwellings — thick stone walls, warm terracotta tones, a double bed set in a limestone alcove. Private patio for morning coffee. But fair warning: no large windows, and the bathroom is completely open-plan with no doors. An acquired taste for the right traveler. Stairs only.
Double · 28 sqm
Suite Bleue
A 40m² suite with a private furnished terrace and sea views. Warm terracotta hues, a carpet from Istanbul, Scandinavian-style armchairs from Greece, and hemp fabrics. Double bed and walk-in shower bathroom with Greek blue tiles and marble sinks. Stairs only.
Double · 40 sqm
Suite Hamra
The largest suite at 55m², with two private balconies and arguably the best sunset views in the house. Hamra means 'red' in Arabic — warm terracotta tones throughout, a sitting area with sofa and desk, and vintage accents including red Istanbul fabric and oriental details. Double bed and walk-in shower bathroom with colored glass windows. Stairs only.
Double · 55 sqmSuite Mare
A 36m² suite with large shuttered windows framing sea views from multiple angles — some with rainbow-hued stained glass. Traditional design meets modern comforts: double bed, walk-in shower, vintage Turkish wood accents and Greek armchairs. Stairs only.
Double · 36 sqm
Suite Mongole
A 32m² suite with a private balcony and wide sea views. Rustic rugs, painted beams, and vintage accessories set the tone. Comfortable double bed and walk-in shower bathroom with blue Greek tiles and marble sinks. Stairs only.
