The posting says it all! Advice please as there doesn't seem to be an up-to -date 'Rough Guide'. Suggestions based on recent experience of Kos, in terms of quality, value and ambience.

Bodrum and Kos town are one in front of the other but i read that have different
wheather conditions. Have you ever been in kos town and bodrum? Is true that bodrum has hotter wheather during the summer?

Can anybody tell me if the Ambrosia restaurant in Kos Town is still open or if it will be open for the Summer 2009 season ? Thank you

I"m planning a trip to Bodrum via Kos ferry. I"ve been to Kos before, but this time my ferry from Piraeus to Kos arrives at 2 am., my question is there a waiting room at this early time of day at the terminal or an all night bar/cafe in town. It will be end of March. Thanks.

I and my partner are thinking of getting married in Kos and was wandering if anybody would be able to recommend a specific hotel we are looking to go all inclusive as we have 3 children and we all know how much kids can eat and would also like to know more about the actual ceremony and what we could do for a reception we have roughly 10 family members travelling with us. We would also like to know about the paperwork involved and when would be the best time to go out there looking forward to seeing replies.
many thanks

my daughter is going to kos to get married she is looking for somewhere to hold a reception after the cermony in kos town hall, ,for 25 to 30 people. her requests are good food pleasant staff and anice view . thankyou

I have a family trip booked to Kos in July, for myself my partner, her two daughters and a friend.


(so 3 girls, 15, 15 and 10)


the 10 year old is quite disabled. She is a bit unsteady walking and is very obsessive in an autistic like way.




We had booked the Aqua Club, but apparently it has gone out of business, so we have been moved to the "aegean view" It has very mixed reviews on trip advisor, but I think between the lines it will probably suit us (I am a bit wary about reviews from people I have not seen posting here or there as well).




we do wnat to try and get to see some of the island. All the girls will be happy on a nice beach, and wil tolerate some sightseeing, in short bursts. I think we will need to hire a car to do any sightseeing, as any kind of queuing is a bit of a problem for the little one. Anyhting with animals works well. as does anyhting where she can get wet (and not drown)..






so.. any ideas.. and where to look for car hire.. and any commenst about the hotel itself. Thanks.

I posted them out to her on the 1st of august..after having to get a new precription from her doctor and sent them out to her on the 1st of August by courier service..next day delivery DHL..today Saturday 4th they still have not arrived..last tracking for the item on line was:
02/08/2007 21:30 Athens - Greece Transferred through Athens - Greece
I have also contacted the company..and they know as much as I do.
Would anyone know..if it would be possible for my sister to buy this medication in Kos..they are Clomipramine(Anafranil). Her husband as visited a few chemists but they do not speak English. The rep isn't much good either..
They are staying in Kos Town.
I would be very gratful for any advise at all. Besides don't leave home without your medication. :o(

hi, just wondering to ferry boats travel in the winter between kos & Bodrum?
i will be very grateful if some one can reply back with the answer. thanks!!!!

Am going out to kos on 1st august..was wondering about anyone having any info on this accomadation!
No one seems to post reports on it and am gettin rather worrried..!
Also some of the books say it is in kos town and some say pisaldi..HELP..!!

I am writing a screenplay for a movie that takes place in ancient Kos. The main time frame is in approximate 250 AD and 332 BC. Much of the story takes place during the time the temple of Asclepius was prominant. Some specific historical info on when the PERSIAN GENERAL MEMMON conquered the island and only held it for one year, is needed.

I know very little about the customs and how people acted in that time. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I know the island is rich in history and was sought after by everyone in the region.

Thanks in advance. I look forward to learning more about the people and culture of the time.

Has anyone stayed in the studios at this hotel, if so what did you think of them and what is Tangiki like for a holiday.

Has anyone stayed at or heard of the Apellis Beach in Lambi.
