Hi...You are going the end of June. My family is coming July 4th, 2005 for two weeks. It's been interesting reading all of this info. My son and family who live in Sweden found this place for us. My daughter and children and I are coming from Washington DC....meeting up in Sweden for a few days before going down to Greece. He got great reviews from Swedish friends.
Hope Yanks are welcome there!!! I am sure we will be a great minority.
It really sounds great, and we are all looking forward to having these weeks together since we don't meet up very often. There are 3 teens, and 1 pre-teen, so I hope they can find enough to keep them busy and happy.
Does any one out there know whether it's possible to fly to Athens for a day. Last year from Cyprus, I flew to Cairo for one very long day, and it was so exciting, and fun. Lounging at a pool or beach is wonderful, but we thought a little sight seeing would be good too.
Want everyone to know that we are one of many American families VERY MUCH a NON Bush supporter!!!!!

Hi Sara
The food is a bit limited if you have fussy kids like one of ours but each lunch and dinner time their will either be fish fingers, pizza or chicken nuggetts and chips.
Breakfast consists of ham, cheese, yoghurt, croissants, peaches or pears, eggs, sausage, beans. For lunch and dinner their is always a good selection of salad, pasta's, normally 2 different meats and a fish dish with vegtables. On Sundays their is a BBQ.
I thought the quality of food was good although the snacks are not up to much and i did hear a few people complain.
With regard to the trips the hotel does not offer any and you have to book through your rep. We did not go on any of the trips although the pirate ship one which takes you out with a chance to swim in the sea and a BBQ on the beach is suppose to be good and it was 40 euros for adults and 20 euros for kids. There is also a trip to the water park which is about 1hr30 mins away but i am not sure how much this one was as it only started a couple of days before we left.
The hotel offers a free mini bus to Pefkorari (10 mins drive) and Hanoti(15mins drive) which you book at reception or you can take a taxi for 8 euros as their are no shops or restraunts close to the hotel.
We thought this place was great and the kids really enjoyed it. The beach is about 8 minute walk away but is worth it.
Hope this is helpful and i'm sure you'll have a great time.

Hi,
Anyone going or has been to Chrousso in August? We have booked 2 weeks here on the 25/8 and was just wondering how busy it might be and how hot it might get. I've been to Greece several times but never in August hope we havn't made a mistake though we are looking forward to staying here as the reports seem good.

hi we were at chrousso village last week and it really is a beautiful place! on the whole we thought the food was very good, a good choice of different meals at lunch and dinner, deserts and snacks were limited though, i have 3 boys aged 7, 5 and 3 and they never complained about the food, my 5 year old tried everything including all the fish dishes but my other 2 stuck to fish fingers, pizza, chips, rice, cucumber and pasta! but they got by ok,they did have boiled eggs for brekkie and my boys loved the croissants with choc sauce!there is no toaster though. going to another country i didnt expect unlimited english kids food.they loved helping themselves to the unlimited ice cream scoops!
it really is a great place for young children though, 2 playgrounds in sand, 2 pools, big bouncy castle, and loads of other little boys to race around with all day and evening! we went on the pirate trip and enjoyed it it was quite expensive but it was all day and you got lunch although if the kids are fussy eaters may not like the sausages on board, no choice of lunch!

We are flying out from Gatwick to Chrousso Village on Thursday 23rd June. My good friend lives in Pefkahori and helped us choose this hotel as she says it has the best facilities for kids and the beach is fantastic. Apparently you get a greek night included on a Monday which is meant to be great.
So if any one else is going on the same day - look forward to seeing you.

After reading all these reviews, my husband and I have booked to go in June 2006. I know that it's a long time to wait but I wanted to book it now as it sounds great. We have upgraded our booking from a studio room to a one bedroom and I wondered if anyone else had done this and could tell me what the major differences are and what it's like etc... There will be me, my husband and two boys aged 10 and 4. It looks a fantastic, relaxing place and I can't wait but I guess I'm going to have to. So jealous of all you lucky lot going this year. Hope you all have a great time!
