We struggled to find any infomation regarding these new apartments prior to our departure... but on arrival in resort, we discovered that we were not to be disappointed. The staff are very friendly, the rooms are kept immaculate by the cleaners and nothing is too much trouble for them. (Within minutes of losing a backgammon counter down a gap in the decking, George was out with his Black & Decker and lifting the planks in order to retrieve it)! The rooms are quite spacious and tastefully decorated with hydro massage showers to the bathrooms. Electrics and Air-con are free and controlled by a key by the door. No key, no Air-con but fantastic in an evening after a sweltering day by the pool. Kitchen area fully equipped for 4 people and the microwave is a bonus! Safety deposit boxes are only 2 euros a day.
The pool while not oversized, can accommodate everyone comfortably and has a separate, shallow section for the little ones. It also has a jacuzzi area, which is lovely to sit in around 4pm ish, when the sun is still quite warm but you're in need of a cool down.
Beware that if you put your shutters down on the first night of arrival, you will not awake until at least 10am the next day. They do cut out an awful lot of light!
Entertainment in an evening is rather low key with a quiz night on Fridays with the rep and an outside Karaoke team on a Tuesday evenings. (It has to be said that the music was a little loud, so if you're not in to being a singing/dancing queen, eat out a little later on Tuesday evenings and don't return until after midnight).
For any further information required regarding the Nereides follow the link... www.hotelnereides.gr
With regards to Hanioti itself, it is a lovely little place with not too many 'Brit-Bars' around. Lots of lovely little Greek Tavernas with a varied menu. Prices are a little dearer than on the smaller greek islands but at what price are you willing to pay for GOOD food & wine? Fantastic fish restaurant just below the Kassandra and try out The Garden if you like the Greek Meze. There is also a little grill place just down from The Garden which serves a tasty plate of meat for 4 for approx 24 euros. Country sausage, pork souvlaki, soutzoukakia and belly pork... delicious and the freshest meat that we tasted in 2 weeks! Add some crusty bread, a greek salad and a plateful of Tzatziki/Aubergine dip and you'll be more than happy! (Or maybe that was just the wine/beer consumed while we ate)?
The beaches are a little crowded directly below the main square but a short walk either way and you will soon discover less populated beaches that are shingle free and that have crystal clear waters. Lots of water activities for the teenagers, jet-skis, para-scending, scuba diving, banana boats/ rings and of course the pedalos complete with shade canopies and slides.
Car-hire is reasonable if you look around and there are some lovely beaches/snorkelling areas to be found if you're willing to have a scenic drive. Quads are a lot of FUN!
I think this may well have covered most areas that I was enquiring about prior to our departure, so hopefully this will be of some benefit to others who are still looking for answers?
Yammas!
