Lighthouse Hotel
Faros hotel with pool views and a fitness room
About this hotel
Lighthouse Hotel takes its name from the village's maritime character, with a swimming pool that has its own view and a lush garden surrounding it, a short drive or walk from Faros Beach itself, 1.7 km away. Family rooms come with a kitchenette and sofa bed, useful for families of various sizes, and the fitness room and kids' pool cover both ends of a family holiday under one roof. Massage services are available for those wanting to unwind further, and the breakfast buffet accommodates special diets, a practical detail on an island where dietary options are not always guaranteed. Guests rate the stay 9.1 out of 10 here, and it is earned on practical family logistics rather than polish, the sort of detail that matters more on a small island than a long amenities list.

Our take
Lighthouse Hotel is a well-rounded family choice in the quieter village of Faros, with the fitness room and kids' pool making it easier to keep everyone occupied without a daily beach trip. The dietary-friendly breakfast is a genuine plus for families with specific needs. Couples wanting an adults-only, quieter atmosphere might prefer a smaller boutique property elsewhere.
- ✓Use the kids' pool in the morning before the main pool gets busy with adults
- ✓Check the breakfast buffet's dietary options ahead of time if travelling with specific dietary needs
- ✓Book a massage after exploring Faros and Chrisopigi Monastery on foot

Why guests love itThe separate kids' pool at Lighthouse Hotel meant our younger children could splash around safely while we actually relaxed nearby, which is rarer than it should be at family hotels. The fitness room got genuine use most mornings before the heat set in. Breakfast handled our daughter's dietary needs without any fuss, which we cannot say for every hotel we have stayed at in Greece. We would book it again without a second thought, no changes needed.
