Just returned from probably our best holiday ever at the Koukounaria Apartments, we will definitely be returning next year (if not before, watch out Leo, I will get you back!!).
Had requested 1 bedroom apartment, which we were allocated on arrival, basic, clean accommodation, remember to bring own kettle/toaster as there is an extra charge, also charge for air con which we found necessary, and safety deposit box, deposit for breakages will be refunded on departure.
We did little other than make coffee as the breakfast both in complex and in local restaurants (Fantasia, Relax) were superb. Spoilt for choice for evening meals, newly opened Lino Bistro at complex was excellent, good value for money, wonderful, attentive staff (can't thank chef Ayman enough for baking wonderful birthday cake for our daughter's birthday), Jimmy and Donia both lovely. Outside of complex, we liked the Nisiotiko (turn right out of complex 200m on right, traditional family restaurant, very quiet. Buca Bar for cocktails on beach was good.
We were greatly entertained by all of the staff, especially (
cheeky monkey) Leo, lovely Jimmy and Nikos (great craic in the Blues bar in the evenings, even changed the music to suit whatever we liked)

Beware the Black Sambuca (lethal liquorice liqueur, lovely, but very very strong, couldn't find any to buy to bring home).
The pool area was fantastic, huge, deep pool plus two smaller children's pools, spotlessly clean pool area (little too much chlorine, but necessary I suppose) our children lived here all day. Beach is about 5-10 mins walk, can get quite windy in afternoons (watch out for low flying beach umbrellas, I was hit in the back by one - ouch very painful,

Traditional Greek evenings were good fun, very family orientated. We booked two trips with Mamfredas agency in village, firstly boat trip around island (E27 per person half price for children) which was quite good, if a little long and does tend to get quite choppy around the north of island (so beware if you tend to become seasick). Secondly trip to waterpark, which was fabulous, although does take a long time to get there by the time you pick up other travellers from neighbouring villages on the way (E20 per person), coming back smaller bus and direct route.
Didn't use Airtours Rep at complex at all in fact I didn't see her until the morning of our return as she didn't accompany us to the complex on our arrival.
