Ponderosa - (Restaurants in Alykes)

There are a lot of tavernas in Alykes.  Most are very good but Ponderosa is that bit better in all respects.  Recommend you visit.

Ambrosia - (Restaurants in Alykes)

Nice location over the main street but that's as far as it goes.  Food was no better than average, service was very slow and price could be bettered in most places in Alykes.  OK but not recommended.

Paporo Beach Restaurant - (Restaurants in Alykes)

There are plenty of better restaurants than this in Alykes.  It's big and when we went it was almost empty.  Perhaps that says it all.  Only good thing is its beach location.  No atmosphere, slow service and very average food.

Relax Restaurant - (Restaurants in Alykes)

Peter C           

I'm puzzled by all the excellent reviews.  Maybe we went on a bad night.  We ate in many restaurants during our 2 weeks and Relax was, without doubt, the worst of all.  Not that it was awful - it's just that the overall standard in Alykes is quite good and Relax didn't measure up to the rest in any respect.  Food was very ordinary, service was slow and we got the impression that we were just making up the numbers. They certainly weren't bothered whether we returned or not.  Would definitely not recommend.

Lofos Studios - (Accommodation in Alykes)

Great location 5 mins from beach and main drag.  Room was excellent - very clean, frequent towel and linen changes.  Lovely pool, very clean.  Nicos who runs the bar made our holiday.  Great guy with excellent sense of humour and nothing too much trouble.  Highly recommended.

Nicos who runs the bar is an absolute star.  Great sense of humour and he speaks excellent English.  Nothing is too much trouble for him and he'll stay open until the last person goes to bed - which was often very late!  Try the breakfasts, served by "Breakfast Boy" Rob, they'll keep you going all day.  We stayed at Lofos and loved every minute.
