Myslef and my husband & 2 Children (8 and 4) will be visiting the Amarylis in Aug 02. We came to Kalamaki 2 Years ago and loved it. Can anyone give me an exact location, last time we stopped in the Hotel Maralen opposite the Golden Sun Hotel and about 5 Mins walk from the beach. First choice are very evasive about where this accomodation is?

Mandy, we have never stayed at the amarylis before but we have stayed in Zante, our children (4&9) loved the beaches and the lovely warm climate. Take plenty of high factor sun cream as it is still very hot at this time of year. we are flying out on 27 Aug 2002 so you never know we might meet up!

Mandy, "Mosqito Milk" is a roll on available from Boots (about £7) can be used on Children from aged 3, this has worked for us in the Greek climate the last two years. Also "Bug bands" wrist and ankle bands that you wear at night (again from Boots) definately recommended. Not tried this but have been told to take Citonella oil and put a few drops on a cotton wool pad and leave in room early evening. The children are always sprayed with repellant before we go out on an evening. Hope this helps.... see you there
