Hotels in Pefkos

The peak holiday season is during the summer months of June, July and August, when the weather is hot and the town is buzzing with energy and excitement. There will be plenty going on during this time to keep the whole family entertained, and all the restaurants will be open as well. The off-season can be equally nice though, with warm weather through to September and October. This is also the best time to go if you want to avoid the crowds.

Hotels near Lee Beach are ideal for families. The blue-flag beach is ideal for those with young children, as its waters are shallow and its sand perfect for sunbathing.
