We loved Pefkos. And will throw in another vote for Kalami in Corfu. We used to got there 20 years or so ago, and it’s very different now, but still quiet with a bit of a local vibe. Great restaurants and amazing places to explore if you have a car. We toured the whole of the north and love it.

Morning x Another vote for stunning Corfu with the ages your children are im sure it would fit the bill. Not been for years but I prob would avoid Sidari. I found it a bit tacky and very busy 16 years ago. Theres some stunning places to explore in Corfu and I'm sure Rasmus can help with more ideas. Not been to Crete but that's on my long Greek list too. Not had a bad holiday in Greece and gutted we didn't get there this year. Have fun choosing. X

This place looks amazing! I've been to Cofru, Zante and Santorini, never been to Crete, DH went a few times when he was in the RN, and would need some convincing to go. The fact that you pay in cash when you get there is also brilliant!

Yes. It is a little way from.beaches and will be uphill on the way back but it's not like hours the pools are beautiful though. You can Def do it without a car, but we prefer with.

We stayed at IKOS Dassia last year in Corfu our first time to Greece we can’t wait to go back (booked for Halkidiki this year but now moved to 2021) .We loved Corfu Oldtown we ventured over to Sidari as had the use of a hire car from our resort and agree too tacky. We visited some beautiful old monasteries and lots of quaint little fishing villages can’t remember the names off hand.

Alykes in Zante is a lovely area. We stayed in a hotel room rather than an apartment but it was right next to everything you wanted - beach, restaurants, etc. - with a nice pool. It was called
Ionian Star; you can book via jet 2 or direct with the owner but be patient for his reply as the email response time is not always the quickest! If you book direct though I think you get air con included and are more likely to have a sea view room which are good perks. You can do a fab boat trip from literally 2 mins from your hotel to see the shipwreck beach, coves and turtles We also liked Halkidiki which was a bit different to other places. We stayed in Kriopigi in (I think) somewhere called the Aegean Aparthotel, which was nice. It was a super hilly walk to the nearest beach though and we found the area of Hanioti which was pretty close to be perhaps somewhere we’d go back to instead. There was a bus which ran between all of the areas on the coast which we found so useful. I’m also a Pefkos fan, and also liked Skiathos too but I can’t recall where we stayed there.
