Ilios Hotel - (Accommodation in Laganas)

Robert L           

First time in Greece for us and we shall return next season. The Ilios was ideally situated in Laganas - Not too far from the main drag but far enough. The staff were first class - very friendly - especially John (Yianni) top bloke who served us large measures at the bar. The accomodation was only recently refurbished and it is clear why they have a gold award from First Choice.

Blue Caves and Shipwreck Cruise - (Zante Excursions)

Ditto - Lee and Georgia's comments. The trip worked out at around £25 pp. U circumnavigate the island but on half of the island is quite barren with views of cliffs, rockfaces, more cliffs and more rockfaces. It is no wonder that this part of the island is uninhabited. The story of spyro the priest was quite enlightening. Legend has it that he had a "lady friend" tied up in one of the caves for "companionship". Who de man? The shipwreck is best seen on the postcards. Up close it is a just a rust bucket - nothing romantic there.
