I can't say that Kos is the best greek island (that is subjective) but it is different to most, and is certainly our favourite. We liked it so much we purchased a house there last December. We are going again this June to sort out the house furnishings. June is a great time to go. I love the hot temperatures later in the summer but June is cooler and would suit more people. It is still in the high 20's C (80's F) every day and evenings are also warm. The best part is that there are still wild flowers around, butterflies and other insects abound (for the nature lovers like me) and the locals are still fresh and keen before the heat and tourists take their inevitable toll later in the season. We prefer the Eastern side of Kos Town, away from Lambi, which is a little too touristy for us and our house is half way between the town and the mountains. Ideal and only 20 minutes walk into the town. Give it a try, you may fall in love with the island and it's people, who are wonderful even by Greek standards, like we did.
We have used Kosmar biannually over the last five years and have always found everything to the standard we have come to expect and have been disappointed with other operators whose standards haven't been anywhere near as constant. Well done to EVERYONE at Kosmar
We have travelled with Kosmar biannually for over five years and have found their high standards to be the most constant we have come across.We have been so disappointed with other operators that for Greece we would not travel with anybody else, this is the same advise that we give to our friends. Well done to everyone at Kosmar
We will be staying at the Iris for the 3rd time in June, we absolutely love it there. Mikalis,Irini, Yiannis,Minas & Costas are really great and always help with places to go and coaching my faltering greek! Studios are spacious, clean and Minas says that you can flush here, though we are in the habit of using the bin. Small tip we use nappy sacks to make things a little more pleasant! So here we are now wishing our lives away to be back at our second home.
