Nice relaxing resort, beautiful beach. There was a choice of good restaurants, and a few bars for chilling in the evening. We would gladly go back again.

Sani Resort is a picturesque place, with restaurants and boutique-type shops around a marina full of million pound boats. The two hotels are a few hundred metres either side and two apartment complexes are right on the marina. The beaches are all fine, soft sand and slope very gradually, making it safe for children. Virtually everything is owned by the hotel group, so prices are not competitive, but there is plenty of variety of bars & restaurants. Only two authentic tavernas appear to be independent of the hotels, one of which is equally expensive, but the other (Bosphorus Grillhouse) is much more like Greece should be - very simple (even scruffy) but good, traditional Greek food and local wine at affordable prices. There are all kinds of watersports for hire - at a price! The hotel runs a free boat trip from the marina about 4 times a week.

The resort we think is more suited to couples,there are plenty of tervernas to eat along the seafront and when you have eaten you can walk your meal off by walking to the jetty or to the shops,for which there are plenty..

Kriopigi review
"Nice scenery but very little to do"
resort to a friend
Kriopigi is a nice resort if you like walking up and down steep banks to get to the beach or to the nearest restaurant. I strongly advise anyone going here to hire a car as otherwise you will have to rely on public transport to go to another more lively resort such as Hanioti or pefkohori. They can be reached by bus if your willing to wait for it, in about 10 -15 mins and costs roughly 3 euros each. Taxi's will charge what they like. The beach is very narrow and has ants running about the place. Although there are plenty of bins on the beach there are still cigarette ends every where. There is a much nicer beach in Hanioti but that means its more likely to be packed. Kriopigi beach is much quieter. There are a few places to eat out I'd recommended "The Acropolis" they do very nice meals here and not too exspensive. You can also book excursions from here and hire a car. If you want snacks during the day try "Casablanca" they make lovely ice-creams, toasted sandwiches, and cheeseburgers with chips.

It was ideal for us, we like to do our own thing, speak a little Greek & make friends with the local people. We only stayed for a week so eating out was limited. We tried Nikos which was good. Also, there is a traditional Greek taverna if you turn 1st left (in the direction of Kalithea) after the supermarket (opposite the kiosk), It has tables outside in the garden & the food is great. We don't eat fish but we saw a customer so delighted with his prawns that he went back the next night for some more. Sonia is the owner's wife & she is lovely. Also, you must go to the Sweet Coffee Shop. Stakis & his wife Morfi, are lovely people & not only is his capuccino excellent which is so unusual for Greece, so are his savoury & sweet crepes. Not exactly Greek but well worth a try! It was quiet in late September but that suited us. Weather was very good, just a light jumper needed for late evenings sometimes. We walked to next resort at Polihrono & also walked to a small village in the hills. A perfect holiday for us.

Polichrono review
"Absolutely lovely Polichrono"
resort to a friend
We will be returning to Polichrono. This is the first 2 week holiday weve had abroad where we didnt want to leave by the end. The day before we left our daughter piped up that she could live here !! We didnt run out of places to eat. We kept finding new bits of the town. The people were really friendly not at all pushy. GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hanioti review
"A Little Bit of Greek Paradise!"
resort to a friend
A hidden gem! Once you manage to find the 'Square' it is amazing. You walk down very quiet streets to get to the centre, but once you are there it opens out into a square and in the centre is a small amphitheatre and fountain! The side streets are packed with shops, bars and restaurants. There were 3 Fishbowl bars that we found with smaller bars dotted around. You don't get hustled to go into the bars or restaurants, which made a welcome change, you are just left to make your own mind up as to where you want to eat and drink. No 'pumping' Disco's, but I'm sure there are some if you look for them. All in all, a very relaxing and charming resort.

The resort is very expensive in the main so caution is advised. If you dont mind roughing it in fast food take away bars then you can get 1 pint of Amstel for just 1 Euro bargain! The food was of good quality too. Sadly though the resort in our opinion will cater less and less for the Brits with the only British Cafe closing too. A few resorts in the area are slowly going towards Eastern European guests with the Brits and the Germans slowly pulling away and i think it is a shame and it will be to their loss. Other resorts have already become ghost towns we were told. and although the resort is still fairly busy it is only us spending the money in the main.

Hanioti is a lovely place but not for party animals looking for nightclubs. There are ample restraunts and taverners and excellant bars. One of the best eating places we tried was a little taverner called 'Stork' just off the square,very reasonably priced and excellant food and lots of it! The main bars we went to were 'Love Street' and 'Afros' both of which are on the square but there are more to try. There are ample shops selling both touristy stuff and clothes,shoes,handbags and leather goods. A really lovely resort, which also has a few 'supermarkets'. All the people are very friendly wherever you go. P.S would recommend trying the cocktails in the bars, they are like a meal in themselves!

Hanioti is quite a nice resort, the beach is lovely! It was really hot while we were there. There are some really good local restaurants, and some shops. We would be happy to go back.

Hanioti review
"Amazing holiday, cant wait to go back"
resort to a friend
amazing, One town was a 10 minute walk, the other a 20 minute walk. Our favourite was the closest one. You can also walk along the beach into town which was nice. I had a big cocktail fish bowl which was about 10 euro and it lasted all night. It was sooooo lush. We usually walked into town in the morning to browse the lovely shops and on the night whilst the sun was setting. After some food and a drink, we got a taxi back which cost no more than 5 euro

Didn't even know that this was the resort name - I thought it was Gerakini?!?
Very quiet resort - only a handful of bars & shops. No nightlife whatsoever as far as I am aware. Sleepy little village with friendly locals.
Be aware - there is no cashpoint or chemist - you have to get on a bus for 30 minutes to find either!
