Try Googling 'Aegean houses'. I did, it comes up with loads, not least the hotel's own website. Looks as if its mainly dutch people going there. You can look at a list of tour ops.
Yiamass, Jean

Aegean Houses is a very nice place to stay.. a friend of mine used to work behind the bar. hopefully I will be back there soon

Oh dear, Wizard. I think Kos is off my list of places to visit . Gx

pity..why is it off your list..or was it just the property you found?? we went in may last year and there were lots of kids about the ages of yours about [dont know what nationality] still we will be back there in another 20 days

Hi Wizard. We were seriously thinking of booking Kos until I read the link that you posted . It doesn't sound like the type of place that would appeal to us because of the amount of British bars, neon lights, loud music, etc.
Parga is one of our favourite places but we want to try somewhere different this year. We are tied to the end of May and the only flights available (for places that we thought we would like to try are Kos and Halkidiki). Looks like Hanioti in Halkidiki.
PS. We have booked Zante for August (Alykanas) and have heard some good reports). Even though I believe Zante is quite commercialied., it is one of the Ionian islands so hopefully there will be some great scenery. Gx

ah well we always keep away from anything to do with bar street and any others selling john smiths or advertising sky.. we tend to go to the back of towns and find the places only locals use... I love Greek food and always drink the local brew so i don't come in contact with many of the party brigade

ps we are thinking of Halkadiki possibly for the end of sept not tried that area yet
