| Please take no notice of the thumbs up or down or location quietness or cleanliness on this or my previous note as we cannot comment for obvious reasons.I just felt that I should warn anyone who has done the same as us and booked and paid up early because you might not get to stay at Panos as well. Good luck any way. | ||||||||||

| Just to let everyone Know my family and myself booked to stay at Panos apartments back in August 2004 due to the good reviews that we had heard about to stay 01-08-2005/15-08-2005,and we paid the deposit. Today (seven Months on) 08-03-2005 we have received a letter from Libra saying that we can no longer stay at Panos because they have and I quote "That due to contractual difficulties our contract at the Panos Apartments has been cancelled therefore we are unable to provide you with your original accomodation" end quote.Libra are only giving us two options, one is to holiday elswhere on Corfu or refund monies paid As you can imagine we now are having the hardest time ever trying to get our holiday in Acharavi back on track "be warned" and oh yes THANKS LIBRA!! You have really made my families year | ||||||||||

| 20th Sept - 27th Sept 2004....This was our first trip to Panos and we loved it! We were droppped off in the middle of the night and not shown to our rooms, which was a bad start, but it just got better from there. If no one meets you, just try to find your room number, as our door just had the key left in the lock - NICE WELCOME! The useless LIBRA reps told us we would be met. The reps were TERRIBLE! The apartments are clean. The shower in our room (number18) did not work very well at all, but this was the only real problem with the room. Safety deposit boxes are available for rent, but we did not bother as the place seemed very "safe" excuse the pun. We read many glowing reviews of the pool bar, which we agree was very pleasant, but Sam and Alison just didn't give us the welcome we were expecting - maybe we were just unlucky, but we spent every meal after our first breakfast dining elsewhere. The pool is a good size and very, very clean but shelves away quite rapidly (be careful with kids!) and it is a sniff under ten feet at the deep end. The gardens are very well kept - VERY GREEN! Ten minutes steep downhill walk gets you into Acharavi centre. The walk back to panos is quite an effort, so if you have trouble walking, this may not be the place for you. It does get easier after four or five trips! Eating out is cheap and very, very good. We recommend Acharavi Park (superb), The Lemon Garden and the Pumphouse and then Yammas Bar for great breakfasts and cocktails. The people at Yammas were superb and made our holiday better than we could've expected. They did the Libra rep's job for them! Don't hire a moped unless you really have to. The libra rep had two holidaymakers killed since she had been there. Car hire is cheap, but read small print. If you want to know anything, drop us a line at joniresonuk@yahoo.co.uk and we'll try to help - Jon and Samantha | ||||||||||

| this was our first time to anywhere greek and we couldnt have picked a better place to start!! The apartments, whilst small for 3 of us where spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The pool area was beautifully kept, lovely lawns, flowers etc. The bar was the hub of our days and we felt part of the family with sam and alison. Excellent choice of bar food from breakfasts, snack and main meals - well cooked and presented (salads to die for!!) Nothing was too much trouble for alison or sam. The ONLY drawback was the hill into town - very steep on the way back up! We WILL most certainly be back at the Panos - hopefully without the Libra reps who were a disgrace! This has been the only place EVER that my husband has said he wants to return to next year - praise indeed!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND GIVE OUR LOVE TO SAM AND ALISON! | ||||||||||

| We had a fabulous two weeks in June at Panos Apartments. Alison and Sam were brilliant hosts. The apartments were spotless. The only problem we had was getting transport back to the airport. Because of the location of the apartments a coach could not get up to pick us up and at one point the Libra rep expected us to walk down into Acharavi with our luggage. Not a short distance! It was sorted eventually but I do think Libra should have organised the transport properly. All in all an excellent holiday and we are going back in September this year. | ||||||||||

| What a lovely place. Much better than we could of hoped for. The apartments are very clean and the view from the first floor apartments are across the sea. Rooms were cleaned and the beds were re-made every single day! The apartments have a pool and bar alongside with Sky TV, snacks and drinks all day. The couple Alison and Sam are very friendly and Sam can knock up a delightful cocktail. (Try the barman special!) Greek BBQ night at the apartments every Saturday evening which turned out a little dissapointing, the food was plentiful and tasty but not much else happened. Might have had something to do with the Euro 2004 football being shown! The bar was open till at least 12pm most nights, and they show DVD films from about 10pm, but you rarely hear it late at night and definately not into the early hours! Would thouroughly recommend the location to anyone who wants something a little quieter, comfortable and very friendly. | ||||||||||
