Double Dee -

I think you're being a little bit harsh, here. Tony, and many others, provide huge amounts of experience and information garnered over many years.

The forum doesn't just give out information - it's a kind of SS simulator. It's relaxed. It's often funny. I've learned a lot since I joined. Yes - there is "noise", but that's part of the fun. This is a welcome free service and free exchange. I'm looking forward to meeting many people who pop up on here.

Relax. That's what it's all about. If it's not for you, just Google the info you need.

Double Dee,

Double Dee,
Tony has provided me with lots of useful information including a link for some brilliant old photo's of SS which I really enjoyed looking at. He is a genuine guy and a very helpful one too.
I think that you are being very harsh towards him and others who seek to brighten each day, they have certainly cheered me up. What is wrong with a little humour afterall it is an holiday forum, a place to be cheerful and happy whilst waiting for your holiday.
Hopefully you will chill when on holiday. When are you going?

Both Tony and Yannis have been a mine of information. I booked my holiday before I even found this site but it's filled in a few gaps about the Romanza and the restaurants that I'll be enjoying during my visits

[lilly]

Gavlah, yes it is a great place to find out things that you need to know before you go.
My first visit to SS was 2008 at Athina Hotel, always said we would never visit a resort more than once but SS changed our opinion on that so we are going again this year staying at Tsaros apartments. When are you going and where are you staying?

[Gavlah1973]

We go on 20th August to the Romanza. It does seem a weird place in the respect that it's a fairly small resort but that many people return year after year!!

To be honest we love Greece full stop. We had our honeymoon in Skala, Kefalonia 2 years ago and that's a place that we'll deffo return to. From the picture people have painted of San Stef, I think the two will be very similar.
I'm drooling thinking about all that lovely food already 

[lilly]

Snap, we go on the 20th of August too. People do seem to return to SS year after year so it just shows how special it is, I can honestly say that we have never been anywhere else where the locals are so friendly and helpful.
In 2008 we were half board at Athina and we said back then if we ever returned then we would go self catering due to all the wonderful restaurants you can enjoy visiting.
last time we hired a quad bike and went all the way to Roda/Kassioppi then back to SS where we carried on to Pagi and Aghios Georgios, good fun through the olive groves.
 
This time we are thinking about hiring a boat, can't wait to go.

Double Dee,If you don't like the banter given out on this site you could try the Agni site as that does tend to be more serious.I agree with all the other replies to your post and I have enjoyed this forum for the last three years both for the info given and the general light heartedness. Chill out and think of a glass of Mythos.

[Jules]

Totally agree to what has been said. Tony has been going to SS for more years than most of can remember and does input a huge amount of info that most people find very useful. My hubby and I are looking forward to meeting Tony and Linda in September to share lots more banter and for good conversation as well.

Just read this and thanks very much all of you! Appreciated.

DoubleDee - your posting has a familiar edge to it, but I have no axe to grind with you and respect your opinion which you are entitled to have.
But if you want some serious information just ask - it's that easy - that's how this forum works!
- more than one of us will give you the answer you need, and with real pleasure.
As for the forum we make new & great friendships with the banter, however we can take a vote on it - just start one - that's democracy in action.

Not all Forums are designed just for argument!
That's my thought,
Yammas and have a good Summer
Regards
Tony

Apologies, was having a bad day.
I understand from reading previous posts that you are all friends and meet up in SS. I know the banter is light hearted and fun, but I was just getting frustrated reading through all the posts.

That's right chill out  we have always said that when you visit San Stef you are immediately relaxed whereas some resorts take you a while to settle in. That's exactly the atmosphere we want to achieve on the forum.

We have thought about stopping this forum many times following various hacks and spam attacks however, the friendly nature of the members and the friendships that have been made as a result of it has kept us going. Yes, the continual banter can be a pain but it forges friendships that's why we created the Yammas Bar so long may it continue.
