Perkes Hotel - (Accommodation in Laganas)

Kerry Willis, there's no air con in the rooms but you can hire fans for the rooms though can't remember how much they cost.

Spud and co. food and pool are excellent, me and my mate normally ate at the hotel before going down the strip - depending on how hungry you are, you can get a toasted sandwich or chips and a drink (alcoholic) for less than 5 euros. The portions of food are good. There's not a huge selection but you're not limited to the same thing everyday. If you get bored eating in the hotel, there's always McDonalds on the strip or the many restaurants. Pool is decent size, with spring board and sun loungers are free.

In general, take some sort of insect repellent. My mate and I took stick and spray (used it before going out each nite) and also had those plug-in things which we plugged in before we went out and didn't get bitten once, though if you don't use anything, you will get bitten and it's not an attractive sight!!!

Any more questions, feel free to ask xxx

Oops, forgot to answer the rest of your question Spud!!! The beach is at the other end of the strip to the hotel, but it only takes about 10-15 mins to walk. However, depending on when you're going will depend on the state of the beach. It was pretty awful when I was there, but that was towards the end of the season in September and there was loads of litter around the place so we spent our time round the hotel pool. But if you want the beach for water sports, you'll have to ask your rep about that, cos we went to mavratzi beach as part of a cruise so don't know how you'd get there ordinarily, how long it takes to get there or how much. Hope this heps a bit!!! xxx
