Villas & self-catering
Kasos has no large villa estates. Its self-catering stays are studios and apartments in and around the capital Fry, with a set of studios at the village of Panagia. Every property above is self-catering except the family-run Hotel Anagennisis, so most travellers cook for themselves and use Fry as a base for the harbours, the beaches and the sights. The studios come with a kitchenette or a full kitchen, air conditioning and a sea-view balcony, and several offer a free airport or port transfer.
Choosing an area
Where to stay on Kasos comes down to the capital Fry and the village of Panagia. Fry keeps you within walking distance of the port, the shops, the tavernas and the small fishing harbour of Bouka, and holds Galanou View, Borianoula, Blue Sky and Hotel Anagennisis. Panagia, in the backland, offers Meltemi Studios with sea views a short walk from the beach at Emborio. Beaches lie far apart on Kasos, so a rental car or the airport shuttle helps, and the whole island is set out in the Kasos island guide.
