Pantheon Apartments

Can anyone help me ?!! We had a brilliant family holiday in 2006 at Pantheon and was hoping to go back next year. However I can't find the apartments advertised anywhere except Thomas Cook and they only offer studios for 2-3 people. I remember that there were two 2 bedroom apartments. Does anyone know who deals with the lets on these please?  

Sorry this isn't a review but i would like to know the exchange rate at the Pantheon Apartments. If someone can tell me i would appriciate it.

Stayed at the Pantheon at the end of last summer and enjoyed the stay.  The owners were very friendly and offered good services.  The apartments were basic but clean and the hotels bar and restaurant were cheap.  The only downside was the walk from the apartments to the bay, however there is a daily bus service which takes you right down.

Tim you cannot go wrong here - this place is always well recommended.  Fantastic views too.  We will be in Kefalos October too but at Dimitris which is opposite end to you This is view from Pantheon...............nice or what

For Rickkky: - I worked as a Rep for Thomas Cook in Kefaols and was lucky enough to have the Pantheon as one of my hotel's.. most of your questions were answered with regards to what is in the rooms..with regards to the numbers there are two blocks one which connected to the bar/reception area which is approx 20 rooms and the other is situated very closely, if my memory serves me correctly I'd say it has approx 40 rooms.... The hotel is situated on one of the highest points in Kefalos the view is breathtaking, you will be very well looked after by the brothers who own the hotel Yannis and Panos - Panos is married to a lovely English Lady Janet and the hotel is soley run by the family. because its a walk into the resort they runa  free bus service every couple of hours taking you into the heart of the town. I would suggest that anyone visiting hires a moped/car Trust rental cars is the best and take a trip into old Kefalos where all the locals live you'll be very welcome and the Taverna's there are out of this world! it wont be over busy in June July/August were are full packed Months.. Anything else you need to know just email me donna_yescar@fsmail.net

Rickkkky! The appartments are basic, but you get a fridge, kettle, toaster, double ring electric cooker, cuttlery & crockery. They 'all' have a balcony and the most amazing sea view you can ever imagine. I challange you not to enjoy the Pantheon lol.

Just got back from the Pantheon yet again! once you have been you just have to return.  Had a fantastic week, with great weather.  Met some lovely people and enjoyed great company in the bar with Janet or Babis as our host.  What more can be said other than "roll on the next hol to Kefalos and the Pantheon"  Shame someone can't capture that view to have at home, I did suggest a roller blind with it painted on, 'anyone good at art' ?!

Me and my family went on holiday to Kefalos at the end of may in 2005. we flew with Air Malta and the flight seemed to go on for ever. when we arrived at the Pantheon Apartments, it was dark and we were all tired as it was about 4am in the morning. when we woke up the next morning, i was speechless when i opened the curtains and walked out onto the Balcony and saw the view. it was absolutley amazing. the apartments were spotlessly clean and comftable. the apartments are situated amout 2 miles out of the resort centre which makes this the perfect place to stay if you are looking for a quiet and romantic holiday.

I am returning to Kefalos with my familay again on the 27th of May 2006 for two weeks and we are staying in the Pantheon Apartments once again so I Just Can't Wait to get their.

I am also hoping to meet the girl of my dreams on this holiday!!!!!

Hi Debbie

Claire

Has anyone booked direct with the owners of Pantheon & do you have their email address /tel/ no?

These appartments are great! Ideal for a quiet holiday but be prepared for a long walk into town. We advise a hire car and see the whole island at your leisure. the views are stunning and there is a nice breeze to keep you cool during the hot days. The owners are very welcoming, especially Janet who you will find behind the bar most of the day and night! There are plenty of restaurants to choose from but reccommend Santa Barbara! While we were at the appartments in beginning of Sept 2005, there were two gorgeous dogs that had taken residence there. Can anyone tell us if they are still there? My fiancee wanted to adopt them! Overall, a great holiday and we would return.

Just got back from the Pentheon Apartments in Kefalos last week and im missing it already!  The apartments are spotlessly clean and comfortable, the hotel staff are really friendly and make you feel very welcome! The apartments sit at the top of quite a steep hill above Kefalos, it's probably about a 15-20 min walk into the town although i advise anyone going to use the FREE mini bus provided by the Pantheon to get into town espically during the day as the walk in the heat can be pretty exhasting, at night it aint too bad, just watch out for the crazy Greek drivers!

We have just got back from Kefalos the Pantheon Apartments was very good with very nice poeple the pool and bar was very clean and the food was very nice.  I made friends with little Harry (9) who can speek good English and the free bus is a good little bus what only goes on set times of the day a car or quad is good the see all the island you must go to Kos town and up in to the hills the airport is not big and always full we used trust cars to get a car not alot of money and very nice people we also went to the water sports there we went on the ringos (10) and the jet skis(30)  

Stayed at the Pantheon in June this year (2005). What a fantastic place. The view from our apartment balcony was amazing, and even though we were right above the bar it was really quiet. The only downfall is the long walk to and from the resort centre (about a mile each way). Going into Kefalos is OK as it is downhill, but the return journey can be quite tiring and scary (make sure you take some comfy shoes). But don't let this ruin your thoughts about staying, the problem is eased somewhat by the Magical Green mini bus. The owners drive the old (and very hot) mini bus into Kefalos at certain times during the day and have a drop off/pick up point. It's very reliable and a great holiday experience. We tried lots of tavernas and bars whilst out there and really recommend Sebastians, Scorpios and the Ausisie steak house. Sydneys bar and B52 on the harbour front are great places for a bit more fun and tasty cocktails. If you get the chance, take the trip over to Nisyros to see the volcano. It's well worth a visit and only takes an hour on the boat.

Just returned from a 2 week holiday at the Pantheon in Kefalos (July'05).  It has been one of our best holidays as a family yet.  The kids loved the pool and the hospitality received is second to none.  Janet, Panos, Babis and Maria are fantastic and can't do enough for you.  We are definately returning next year.

What can I say! I have just returned from the Pantheon a few hours ago and it has to have been the most relaxing holidays I have ever had.

We stayed at the pantheon apartments for two weeks in september 2001, this included the 11th of that year. Up to that point we had a superb holiday. Next year we are going to return to Kos and wouldn't even think of staying anywhere else. I bet that harry is still a cheeky little so and so.

GOING TO KEFALOS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN JUNE, STAYING AT THE PANTHEON APARTMENTS, I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AGED 10, 7, AND 4 CAN ANYBODY RECOMMEND PLACES TO VISIT TO KEEP THEM OCCUPIED AND ALSO INFO ON APARTMENTS WOULD BE APPRIECATED THANKS

JUST RETURNED FROM TWO WEEKS AT THE PANTHEON(8TH -23RD SEPTM 04) OUR FIRST TIME THERE BUT SIXTH VISIT TO KEFALOS. HAD A GREAT TWO WEEKS MET SOME GREAT PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THE FOUR GEORDIES AND KEVIN AND BARB FROM LIVERPOOL, BABIS AND HIS FAMILY MAKE YOU FEEL VERY WELCOME. THE VIEW FROM THE APARTMENT WHICH WAS VERY CLEAN WAS FANTASTIC WITH SAME VIEW FROM THE PATIO BAR. AS FOR THE BABIS BUS THIS ITSELF IS WORTH STAYING THERE FOR IT WAS A LAUGH A MINUTE.
WE HAD A FEW POWER CUTS WHICH WAS UNUSUAL BUT THIS DID AFFECT THE PUMPED WATER SUPPLY.
HOPE HARRI BABIS'S SON IS STILL RIDING HIS BIKE THE WAY I TAUGHT HIM
ONE FINAL WORD THE REP FOR THIS SITE ANDY BURGER-SEED ( THATS THE NAME ON HIS BADGE ) WAS ONE OF THE BEST REPS WE HAVE EVER HAD FULL MARKS TO HIM.
WISH WE THERE NOW JEFF & GILL WIGLEY TAMWORTH STAFFS

Just returned from a week in Pantheon. Have holidayed for many years in greek islands and have yet to find a more stunning view from an apartment. The accommodation is basic (even by greek standards) but was clean and very, very comfortable - slept superbly well. Food more than reasonable, good bar area within the complex, and the BUS!!! Old mercedes vehicle with a charm all of its own - needs to be ridden in to be appreciated!! Would consider nowhere else to stay if we returned to Kos, had a wonderful week.

Just how far from the beach are the Pantheon apartments? Although we've been to Kefalos about 6 times we've never stayed here, are they fairly new?

We stayed at the Pantheon for two weeks last month and had a great time! We managed without a hire car, but I think we'd get one if we went back.

I have just booked a holiday to Kefalos and am staying at the Pantheon Apartments. Any help on what the apartments are like and what Kefalos itself is like would be appreciated. Also what restuarants and bars are good to visit.

Thanks

To Wendy Bowden.

Yes Janet is still there, as helpfull as ever.

my then 8yr old son i had one of the best hols ever at the pantheon apts. janet and babis, what wonderful friendly people. we were there in may 2003 (same time as bill and den the beerpot men!!!!
wonderfully clean, pool was marvelous and resteraunt prices and food fab.
we look forward to our return to pantheon in aug this year.
does anyone know if janet is still there?

Had a very nice stay @ Pantheon Apts.
Shame not nearer to beach, free bus from apartments to the town very dangerous often overcrowded and bald tyres on the vehicles.

Apartments very basic but o.k

Wonderful view from room.

Marvellous position and views (unless you get a ground floor apartment). Very clean and well furnished - well above the average in our experience. Excellent pool. Car an advantage, but courtesy bus runs several times a day. Safety deposit boxes available (at reception, not in rooms). 15 minutes drive to airport, best beaches nearer still. A bit of noise from the bar occasionally, but nothing serious. You wouldn't do better than this in Kefalos, I'm sure.

Sonia Pollock, u wanted info on pan'.ap's. last month. If uv not got any - yet! -... Pantheon appartments ab-fab. fingers crossed, gonna be goin back this year. Its the epitome of relaxed, and the family who run it are so lovely...ask their son to play his bazuki for you. You'll find them on the RIGHT hand side of the road as you travel down from the airport litterally 2-3 min before you hit the seafront (Big-tall white building, just as the hill gets steeper!). Youl know as well is i though that its much more fun -if you have the post-flight energy - to wait until you get down to the beach front and then walk back up (in which case the p.a is on the left!). one more tip, check out the first restauraunt at bottom of the hill (on the left, opposite first mini-market). its run by a really nice guy called Yanis, whose mother makes an unbeatable neopolitan spaghetti. Yanis' english girlfriend spends most of the year there so you'l probably get to meet her too... Have fun!

I have been to kefalos many times over the years. However this will be my first time staying at the Pantheon Apartments, can anyone advise me as to where there are exactly? I know that they are on the hill when coming down into Kefalos from the Airport end, but not sure if they are on the right or left hand side of the road. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The Pantheon Apartments just has to be a little bit of Heaven on earth! Without doubt the most stunning views from the rooms. Babis and his family run a friendly establishment and always make you feel at home.
We have stayed here four times now and I can't wait to go back again.
Our favourite spot on the Greek Islands and we have been going there for around 20 years.
Oh yes, the Babis Bus is an experience that lives with you for ever!

Excellent. Fabulous views out to sea from Pantheon. Great value
for money family-run business. We have booked again for this
year. Up a hill from town but it's a nice walk and the green
minibus is good fun.

Yeah they are a long walk from the resort but they do run a little green bus from the apartments to the resort, the views are fabulous. Not stayed here but have read other reports.

Any info on the pantheon apps in kefalos
