Scarlet, cannt really hel;p you with the kiddies I'm afraid, but there are a lot of families go to Kos so sure you would be fine. Transfer would be no longer than 1/2 hour or so from the airport.

Scarlet, Hi

Went this August to Kos Town, kids 12 & 10, they had a great time, made many friends round the pool also liked the beaches and boat trips (nisaros). We on the other hand found it a bit commercial - having been to Crete, Kefalonia and Corfu in recent years. I think it really depends on what you and the kids like. Transfer is about 30/40 mins depending on number of drops.

Pugwash - hi

I would say you couldn't go wrong withKardenema - loads of bars and clubs and I would imagine plenty of ladies for you lads to chase!!

thanks for that blue,
I ask as some of the group went to magalluf this year and stated the men to women ratio was..... well they stated you had to see it to believe the amount of men fighting over so few women..... so they got me a little worried as i dont want to organise something like that and have everyone blaming me.
We went to zante 4 years ago and found that has been our best holiday ever. So im hopin its like.
Anyone with recommendation for apartments.Ta.

Can anyone tell me exactly what the beaches in the above resorts are like

Im seriously considering booking kos for our next years holiday but cannot find out if the beaches are sandy or shigle/pebble
As real beach lovers we need a sandy beach
We will be hiring a scooter for our fortnight so have no problem travelling to a beach if there is one available

Any info or photos anyone might have would be great and Id really appreciate it

Cheers

Further to my previous post Im just wondering how far tigaki is from kos town
Is it reachable to visit on a daily basis??
It seems to be the best beach for us but we wish to stay in kos town / psaldi at the grecotel imperial and need to know if it is feasible to travel to the tingaki beach every day on our scooter

Cheers and thanks

Yes! we hired a scooter and made the trip regularly from Kardamena which is a lot further away than Tigaki. :wink:

Hi Polar. You will be able to do the trip from Psalidi to Tingaki in about 15 -20 minutes tops on a scooter. Although parts of the beach in Lampi aren't too bad.

Hi we are planning to go to kefalos in May. but as we are going for our wedding aniversary without the kids we are looking for accommodation that has double beds, not twins.

Can anyone recommend anywhere, for a relaxed holiday away from the main noise but close enough to walk for breakfast rolls?

thanks
