hi tonyc   think you will have to book for me it cost us £1420 2 weeks for thomas bay inc insurance
See Yannis as well - good deal!
Ours is from Gatwick on a crappy flight, but we are not bothered by a night flight - done it many times.
Booked a late check-out inc. meals etc on flight.
So - -you can do it - but some airports also put the price up!!

We had great value for money!

Mikee,

I dont obviously know your personal tastes, but my wife and I love this resort.  We adore Greece and have been to a lot of the islands including the mainland and San Stef is way up there as one of our favourites.  The food choice and quality is second to none.  The resort itself is pretty relaxing and very friendly.  We love long walks and we found the area to be excellent with some stunning views.  To conclude and re-enforce the point, my wife will not stay ANYWHERE for longer than one week or perhaps ten days maximum, it was her idea to book again this year for TWO WEEKS.

Certainly can Yannis ... been there 4 times now, BEWARE the mozzies in October tho'  :o

Its getting more and more touristy as people discover it AND expensive (but still a great place)  IMO

Valtos Beach is a nice resort, just along from Parga town which is about a 20 min walk
over a steep hill (Amazing views all across to Corfu) or there are water taxis that go between the 2

Mikee,

Skiathos is one of my favourite places also.  The prices got a little silly what with the Abba mania going on and the locals taking advantage.  They may have shot themselves in the foot though as I'm led to believe that the tourists numbers are dwindling somewhat.  We are by no means "cheap skates" by the way, just dont like being "ripped off".  Which brings me back to San Stef, which I feel is great value and more friendly with it being smaller.  I have not visited Parga, do you recommend it?

Yes Parga is one of those places people return to time and time again (bit like SS I guess) !

I went to Kefalonia the year after Captain Corelli was released and they did the same ripping people off big time, so never went back
