Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Zia?
The best area to stay in Zia is generally within the village itself or just a short walk from its centre, particularly for those seeking convenience and stunning views.

Zia is a small, traditional mountain village on the island of Kos, famous for its breathtaking sunsets. The village is built on the slopes of Mount Dikaios, meaning many accommodations offer elevated positions with panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and neighbouring islands. The main street, known as the 'Sunset Strip,' is lined with tavernas and shops, leading up to the church and the small, picturesque square.

Couples often find staying in Zia village ideal. The romantic setting, especially in the evenings, with the sunset as a backdrop, is truly special. Hotels and guesthouses in Zia are typically smaller, boutique-style properties, offering a more intimate experience.
When is the best time to go to Zia?
The best time to visit Zia is typically from late spring (May) to early autumn (October), when the weather is warm and sunny.

May and June are ideal for those who prefer pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds. The hillsides are green, wildflowers are in bloom, and the island isn't yet at its busiest. This period is superb for couples looking for a relaxed escape, perhaps enjoying a quiet evening meal with a view of the sunset.

July and August are the warmest and liveliest months, superb for travellers who enjoy a bustling atmosphere and don't mind higher temperatures. This is peak season, so the village will be full of visitors, particularly around sunset. Families often find these months appealing due to the long, bright days and the opportunity for children to enjoy the outdoor activities.

September and October offer a beautiful balance, with the sea still warm enough for swimming and the summer crowds beginning to thin out. The temperatures are comfortable for exploring, and the sunsets remain spectacular.
