  • Me and my friend visited this beach and lounged at the Casa Playa Beach Bar and Restaurant. This place is very clearly a tourist trap. The buses only run every few hours, and although they are free...

  • It's beautiful, but not for me - too big and all those rows of sunbeds...Rather for young people looking for entertainment and a lot of people.

  • Banana Beach & Casa Playa Restaurant are the best! We enjoyed the place so much, that we came back for a second time. The food at the restaurant was very good and the staff very attentive. The sunbeds are pretty cheap (10€ for 2 basic sunbeds + umbrella or 15€ for 2 wooden sunbeds + umbrella). I totally recommend if you are looking for a sand beach with clear and beautiful water.
  • Private beach. They offer you 2 types of sunbeds and 3 types of umbrellas (one is a wood structure with curtains in front of the beach). The less expensive is 10€ 2 sunbeds and 1 umbrella for alla day, the 2nd 20 euros that we chose the 2 times that have been there because we were ok with the umbrella and the sunbeds were the same for the 30€ and 40€ offer. You can't bring drinks and food from the outside because you have to order from their bar. I have to admit that here we ate the best and the most delicious Greek salad on the island (maybe there is another place but this is a 10+). We also ate a souvlaki and desserts. The salted caramel brownie was the best I have eaten in my life and the yogurt with honey is illegal. You have to come here once. The bar has an exotic atmosphere, the guys that work there have a uniform that reminds me of Bali and they are kind. I also love the sand beach a lot because of it's low water till 50/60 m far away. There is a shower and also toilets. For me is a go and I advice you to go there. I can't believe that someone can be disappointed. If you want to go to a similar place that has "no rules" you can go to the old Alykanas Beach. Best wifi on the island
  • I really liked this beach - a few bars where you can sit under umbrella and use sun beds. There is also an area where you can freely lay your blanket and enjoy your day. The beach bars have also shower and changing room.
  • My favorite beach on the island. Quiet, many space, clean water and good service.
  • Perfect place to chill. Beach is clean and calm. Water sports in the location and cafe bars food and drinks were amazing too
