Just came back after a week’s stay at the Panas Hotel. It’s a fabulous place, friendly, clean, beautiful setting and spotlessly clean. Great pool, always sun beds free. There is a small beach just a 2 minute walk away. We did have a newly renovated room which was spotless, cleaned daily with fresh towels. We had a car for a week which I think you may need as no bus service but you could use taxis which reception will order for you. Nana who runs the hotel is excellent always happy and smiling and always willing to help and have a chat. We ate here a few times and the food was delicious. The waiters and waitresses are always on hand and are very polite and helpful. Special shout out to George who made the best cocktails! We will be going back soon!
