It looks like the Romanza HAS cut down on the breakfasts this year, as last year you could choose boiled eggs, yogurt and honey or cereals as well (and it was all help yourself) with no additional supplement, I suppose it's a sign of the times!!

It'll be interesting to see how the other venues offer their breakfasts this year - but as you say the Honey Crunch is now the Credit Crunch!!

Kernock, thanks my friend - a very interesting and entertaining read - very informative and yet a touch sad!
Funny how the west side of the Island is getting wrecked beach wise, but more so  - especially in the last 3-4 years!!
The loss of the Kantina on the beach is the end of an era!! such a shame!! It will be sadly missed by many!
Lets hope the locals get things on track soon.
Sorry you had a mixed kind of holiday, hope it's great in July!!

I was hoping the storms would reverse last years damage and put some sand back on the beach, in SS and Arillas!, but I hear it's now worse and also bad in Sidari as well!!

hi folks

not much more to add to the other reports, we came back on 28th and the beach has dramatically improved in the last week. there were sunbeds out up to and just past Havana, enough beach to enjoy again now but not as sandy as it was.

Weather was scorchio in the 2nd week and we left with the sun shining.

we ate at Mythica, Zorbas, Little Prince, Beachcomer, Tereza, Yiannis snack bar. We didnt have one bad meal, in fact i never have. Prices didnt seem that much different to last year to me, though we were told that VAT is going up and to expect higher prices later in the year. Ciggies hadnt gone up while we were there, but again any time now they will be.

Most important is BAR38 and Hilary / Spiro. Hilary is doing amazingly well, bless her and she deserves a big hug from you all if you see her. She is going backwards and forwards to Athens, looking after theoir daughters, and trying to get the Bar finished and dealing with all that goes with it - she deserves a medal. She did manage a couple of hours on 2 occasions to meet up with us, which was very emotional but great to see her and for her to sit down for 5 mins and relax !!!!! Spiro is progressing well but it will be a long road, so if you are there when the bar has opened please pop in and show your support - she is one hell of a woman. Hils is aiming to be open by mid june hopefully for Sprios birthday.

We had a great time as usual, even with dodgy weather in first few days, and was lovely to see our friends again

Jules:
Glad you got decent weather in the end. Did you meet up with Zoe in the end after last years didn't happen because of the weather?
Any changes at Teresa Sarah?

sharris:
ooh yes i did meet Zoe, we saw each other a few times, and on day we left on our coach we were stopped outside thomas bay, and they banged on the window by me waving me off !!!!!!  lovely couple and they are back in sept the same week as us so am sure we will meet again !!!!!

Tereza's have worked hard over the winter and it looks great. The balcony's on 2 beds look lovely, although we didnt get to have a nose in them. They have all new furniture in the bar, they have redecorated inside the bar, they have also put a canopy around the outside edge of the bar on 2 sides to give more coverage outside, but leaving some open decking area.

Jarka is there again working hard bless her, and all the family are doing well and little Angelina has grown so much - she is very cute.

All in all its lovely !!!
