Kardamena (Greek: Καρδάμενα), is a small Greek village 7 km from Kos Island International Airport at Antimachia, situated mid-way along the south coast of the island of Kos. Once a small fishing village, it has emerged as one of the most popular summer destinations, especially for British tourists, over the past two decades, offering scores of pubs and restaurants, bars and night clubs and water sports facilities. It reported a population of 1,783 inhabitants at the 2001 census and has a land area of 35.150 km².

Kardamaina is built on the site of the ancient settlement of Alasarna. During the 2nd century BC, Alasarna was an important urban center with one thousand citizens, to whom the slaves and the metics should be added.

The archaeological excavations have brought to light some impressive ruins. A Temple of Apollo, an extensive Early Christian settlement (from the very few known in Greece), as well as four basilicas that belong to the same period. Also many stone objects of everyday use (millstones, tools, vases, vessels, etc.), mostly made of volcanic and sedimentary rocks have been recovered so far.

Stayed in June 2013 and going back in June 2014 already booked and so looking forward to it. Everything about the Sunbeam is spot on the owner Andreas is great and really helpful. Right on the beach so you can get up go downstairs for fab breakfast and straight out on the sun lounger. Far enough away from Bar street where most of the bars are and two mins walk to the harbour seafront with lots of good resteraunts. Accomodation clean and we had lovely balcony you could sit out on to watch the sun come up at fiveish. Would recommend this place to couples and families ...just book and go...enjoy
