The resort as a good mix for all. Beach (away from resort centre)is good (sand)and gets better the more you go towards Kalamaki. Sea gently sloping and kid safe. Hotels on beach open to non res. so share their pools and bars (eg Hotel Anastasia). Loads of restaurants and food very good with good service - Greek management rather than english a bit better (depends what you want). Night time loads of bars on mainly 1 main road - lively and no rip off (2-3 euro for 1/2 l of beer or cocktail). At 12 the music on the street finishes and moves indoors. Only caution watch out for Albanians - rumours about attacks on women No problem if you keep together tho. PS Airport is small, and really not up to the no.s and is poor. Expext to queue outside in the sun on your way home.

depends what you want from a hotel. 1. at first put into a basement room with no view, beds damp and basicly so depressing that it was unbelivable that jmc even contemplate allowing their use. demanded a move and got a clean room -basic but overall good (of course the normal greek "don't flush" rule prevails, hot**ter hit and miss and showering a bit different). maid service good. 2. pool and poolside (incl. bar) good, and no fighting for sunbeds! the entertainer michael was a good laugh too. tennis and basketball court there too. 3. noise - sorry it was a nightmare. room to room poor, and corriders (which are a maze) being marble echo like mad. unfortunately this was due in alot of ways to people who hadn't a toss for others. the newly opened roof top bar worsened this with people (residents and non res) everynight lost in the corriders (11pm - 6.00am) shouting to each other "no it's not down here, must be the other stairs etc". downstairs main bar ok but there were nights when disco went on to 4.ooam with heavy base beat throughout the hotel. jmc reps and hotel management p**s poor in dealing with it. overall enjoyed the resort but def. not the hotel.
