Welcome to San Stefanos (NW Corfu) > Where to stay
First Visit - Initial Report
Camlan:
Arrived at the Romanza yeaterday and thought I would post some intial thoughts.
The place:
1. The resort is everything you guys say it is and more. Very clean and very welcoming. Absolutely top class
2. Excellent value. 2 Course meal at the Little Prince last night 33 Euros including large beers and a litre of very good rose wine. Salads at the Nafiska for lunch today were excellent.
3. Yes it is British orientated but in a nice way if that makes any sense - not totally in your face.
4. San Stefanos Travel is very good - booked excursions today and they were very helpful. Special offer €8 for the Corfu Town trip
The Romanza
1. Room and hotel absolutely superb. Views are to die for. Room is spotless.
2. The breakfast is perfectly adequate. 4 pieces of toast, scrambled egg and 2 croisants plus orange juice per couple. Unlimited very good coffee. Moreover the prices for the add ons are very reasonable. What looked like an excellent bacon baguette €1.50. I will be trying this tomorrow!
3. The hill - not so much steep as long but no problen for anybody without major mobility difficulties. The path down to the beach is fine and I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the Havana Bar just at the bottom of the path - excellent.
Downsides - sitting on the Thomson coach for an hour at the airport waiting for other flights to arrive. And I am going to be in trouble for this but I had the Sizzling Steak at the Little Prince last night and though it only average - the roast potatoes and the starters wered
great though!
Beachcombers tonight.
Jules:
Glad you have found our favourite place to be as we all do . As regards the sizzling steak it would never be to everyones liking anyway. I have never tried it but Roy has and he loved it.
