Martisa Studios - (Accommodation in Kefalos)

'MARITSA STUDIOS'
just got back from a superb week at 'Maritsa', only booked it 4 days before and did'nt know what to expect, but it was excellent, very clean, although the noise from the road could be a little bit of a pain don't let that put you off.
Bit of a hike to the centre of kefalos ad I would suggest car hire if with little children.
My daughter befriended the little black 'n white wild kitten, and fed it sardines so if you are in studio 11 expect a visit.
Go to the sandy beach which is a 10 minute walk - go up the road to the entrance to club med and walk down the lane which runs alongside and this brings you to a lovely sandy beach - snorkeling round the point is good if you have younsters, and the ruins of the basilica are worth looking over.
Our biggest dissapointment though was the water temperature - much cooler then the med, something to do with the changing of the water in that particular bay, so get a bus to Pleasure beach, only 10 minutes away and the waters a little warmer.
Will certainly go back again.

Manolis Studios - (Accommodation in Kefalos)

Did'nt stay at 'Manolis' but used the pool every day, and that was superb, very clean and everyone there are so friendly and the bar area for drinks and snacks were excellent.
Try the 'Greek Salad' its massive and for just 2.50 euros was good value.
Again its a bit of a hike to the main 'strip' and if with little one's may be investing in a car would be recommended.
If you do get a car drive up to the old town and visit the old bakery, it was the highlight of our holiday, just so original greek, superb.

Old Kefalos - (Places to Visit on Kos)

A visit to see the view from the old fort is worth a walk or if your lucky a drive up the hill.
Do go and find the old bakery in the back streets, the old chap comes out and tries to intice you in with sweet baklavas, chocolate, vanille,and eclairs.
Go and have a coffee and a baklava, it really is a must for an early morning trip, the old chap will tell you how he's been doing this for 55 years and he always shakes your hand on leaving. Brilliant!

Only ate here once but it was suberb, the 'Greek Lamb Hotpot' was the most superbly cooked lamb i have ever tasted, just melted in the mouth, and it was very reasonably priced considering the lovely location. Try it.
