For the former there's a fabulous sandy beach stretching five miles from end to end – so an abundance of snoozing space there. If you've got the energy to get active, there are watersports from pedaloes to parasailing. And while the beach is fairly cramped, its gentle slope into the sea gives you broad shallows – ideal for relaxing floats on a lilo. The resort has more little shops than you'll ever need for anything from T-shirts to coffee cups. And, along with a couple of traditional tavernas, there are bags of cafes where you can grab a burger lunch or order an English breakfast – whatever time you wake. So sustenance can be pretty cheap.
