Why I am returning to Sans Stefanos

(1/10) > >>

lilly:
Myself and my husband have never returned to the same resort in all the years we have been holidaying. We had previously said we would never do this however that was before we visited Sans Stefanos in 2008.
There are lots of reasons for our return this August some of which I will mention:
The friendly and welcoming locals, nothing is too much trouble for them, we even got a lift back to our hotel last time from 3 w's bar because it was raining.
The vast amount of taverna's, enough for a two week stay.
The entertainment at the Condor bar and the quieter bars for a relaxing night.
The helpful shop keepers who do not badger you just to make a sale.
The holidaymakers that you get talking to were always friendly, no lager louts here.
Lots of accomodation to choose from to suit everyone, we are at Tsaros up the hill this year which won't be a problem for us but there are lots of accomodation that does not require a steep climb[ask Tony].
The beach, nice and clean,lovely views of the resort and the nice lady near Athina who always has a welcoming smile for you, one day on our  previous visit to SS we paid for our sunbeds on the beach and within an hour the winds whipped up so we were unable to stay and she offered us our money back which was very nice of her.
The lovely walks to Arillis, the walks through the olive groves[very pretty] and the walk to Afionas via Arillis and stopping at the restaurant there overlooking the sea[Panorama restaurant] we had a lovely meal there and the lovliest wine ever which they make themselves.
Feeling safe walking about at night and the beautiful sunsets.
These are just a few reasons why we are returning.

I think it's the food and the Tavernas that I'm mostly looking forward to.

It's a bonus if a hotel's rooms are nice but all you do is sleep there.

My days mainly consist of getting up around 8.30am, half an hours swim in the pool. The day's usually spent lounging by the pool, swimming and reading books. Love having a couple of pints around dinnertime. We prefer the pool to the beach but will definately spend a couple of days down there I think.

I think we'll hire a quad (if I'm brave enough!)and go see the island and also probably book a boat trip via Noula. We've already sorted a taxi transfer so we should arrive nice and early at the Romanza and hopefully have an afternoons sunbathing ahead.

Usually go out at 7.30ish via a swifty in the pool bar for a meal and love finishing the night back round the pool bar

Aaaahhhh Heaven!!
