Trip report: Greece, March 2026, 3 days. Overall rating: 8/10.
Arrival and first impressions: Uber worked perfectly. Checked into my hotel near undefined.
Day 1-2: Explored the area, got the lay of the land. Took time to figure out the scene.
Days 3-5: Had some incredible experiences. The undefined area was surprisingly quiet.
Prices: In line with expectations. Prices are pretty fixed here.
Tips for others: Bring cash.
Would I go back? Definitely, this is now in my regular rotation.

Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

I was there in early March and can add some detail:
Prices: Slightly higher than reported. I spent about $100/day on the hobby side.
Girls: Mix of local and working girls from other regions. Quality was varied.
My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.
One tip: Avoid weekends if you want better prices.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More competition means better service.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Good info. I'd add that the late night is the best time to go.
