I stayed at the Aphrodite APARTMENTS in July 2011. Not to be confused with the Aphrodite Hotel (which is in a better location). The apartments are ok. Very basic but quite clean if you get put in the main complex. We were first put in a room in the back building which is of a worse standard. We had trouble using one of the taps and the toilet did not flush so we had to get the man to come every time it needed flushing! Staff were friendly enough, and moved us to a room next to our friends as soon as it became available. We were in a big group (36 of us) split into 3 hotels and we spent most of our days at the Savvas hotel pool as this had a much better atmosphere. Aphrodite apartments are just too out the way. It's about a half an hour walk to the top of the strip, but about 45 minutes to the beach and the bottom of the strip (where you finish at the end of the night) although taxis were fairly cheap. If you get a bargain on these apartments go for them but if the price difference to be more central isn't too much then I'd pay that bit more if I was to go again. Mini market almost opposite the hotel does lots of cheap alcohol, water, snacks etc and a 5 euro phone card to call home on the pay phones outside which is great. Try one of the pastries from there, they're lovely. Laganas as a resort is absolutely amazing for a party holiday. Lots of great bars and clubs, and even the beach is alright compared to the likes of some Club 18-30s resorts. Definitely recommend Laganas for a lively holiday but if you're after something relaxing stay well clear! May cause a bit of a culture shock.
