Accommodation inside the castle

1. Ardamis Guesthouses

Ardamis Guesthouses

Guesthouses in the historical building of the venetian administration and later the headquarters of the turkish rule. Inside, the harmony of stone and wood creates a nice atmosphere and a comfortable feeling, while outside, the furnished terrace brings you into contact with the sea as it is very close to the southern wall. The guesthouses are also near the cannon square.
