Much obliged. Am staying at an all inclusive hotel that's designed so that you dont leave. But I'm after some wallop if its available this side of the Island. Been to Hersonissos today and that was rank.

You’ll definitely find some in Malia, although it’ll be as speedy as you like as it’ll be the shite the flog to the kids.

Went in 93, but can't remember anything about it, but didn't go to Malia. Not sure if that will help.

Elafonisi.is nice but gets busy and can be a mare to get out the car park. Go early. veer off to the right of the main area its a bit quieter.

Don't,
Whilst it's a lovely gaff, they literally make up the prices of their drinks.
PRAVA £7.50 a pint.
