The apartments are about 40 minutes walk into the main strip of Laganas. The owner has worked on them over the winter period and has made them look very nice for people to stay in.It is worth hiring a car, not only because of the distance but to see the rest of the island, its beutiful. Your rep will give you details on car hire with Budget car hire, but you can get cheaper in resort but your not covered as well with the insurance and the cars are older and more likely to break down. Get it through your rep as youve got them to back you up if something goes wrong.
This is for Kevin Elliott and Laura Bull It depends which tour operator your traveling with. Over the winter the owners have built another 4 blocks , two are with Libra holidays and 2 are with Kosmar. They are situated behind the shell station in Laganas and very quiet. The rooms with Libra holidays are big and a studio for 2 will quite easily fir another bed in there. They all have basic facilitys as its cheaper to eat out, but you will get a kettle which is unusual in Greece and plates,cups,knives,folks,spoons etc. I know the rep for Libra use to rent out fans for 4000drx for 1 wk and 8000 drx for 2 wks, your need it cause it was hot when I was there a couple of weeks ago. Trust this answers your questions.
Its safe to walk back to the apartments but a torch is still good to have as you have a 20 minute walk into the main resort along a staight road which cars do go along fairly quickly and its not well lit. Use the torch to show them your there.
