Lakitira Beach Resort
The sun soaked island of Kos, is the
idyllic setting for our Lakitira Beach Resort. Located on the
south of the island, looking out over the glittering Aegean, it
combines the leisurely pace of Greek island life with every
imaginable activity.

The accommodation at Lakitira is spread out
amongst 4 acres of colourful gardens and ranges from whitewashed

Dining is on a half board basis (with upgrade to
