Hi Jules,
Glad to hear that you are returning again. We are here now and it is fantastic although the weather has been very mixed. Everywhere in Lakones is open, Golden Fox pool looking good. Nothing new in Paleo to report as yet as but most places are still closed till next week. Nikos on the beach is our daily routine with a carafe and a crossword or two. New chairs for drinks at the bottom of the hill at the gift/craft shop which seems to be very popular. I'm sure you will have a great time. Alison |

Thanks Guys, nice to hear from you both and now starting to count down the days.
Glad Lakones is open and very much looking forward to splitting our time between our base at Villa Tango and Paleo. Tom, funny about Dean and the drum, had forgotten about that!! Hear that you went over at Easter? Have always fancied going at that time of year for their Easter Celebrations, can you recommend it? Jules and Dean

New tourist shop opened on 1st May on the road up to Lakones just on the bend before George's Cellar - doubt if he will be too pleased as most walkers will reach there first

Hi Jules and Dean,
It would be great to meet up again. Dean, you were so funny with the drums. Have you been practicing during the winter? We are there from the 9th to the 30th June. Janet and Sue are there at the same time as you, so we could have a reunion. Kind regards Tom and Marion |

An old post I know but I thought I would update it having just returned from our annual pilgrimage to Paleo.
A new taverna has opened opposite the Elia Taverna called Utopia, in the fork of the road junction to Lakones. A little further into Paleo, Zorbas has reopened after having been closed for a couple of years. A new "bakery" has opened about 150 metres past The Odysseus Hotel set back off the road. We did not try any of these establishments so cannot comment further. The yellow submarine was not operating and could be seen jacked up in the harbour. The small supermarket near Maria Apartments has closed. The resort was moderately busy. Now ready to return...next year ![]() |

It's all Greek to me!
