A weekend in san stef

(1/4) > >>

Gillywoo:
We couldnt face another wet weekend in cumbria so gill and i took advantage of some amazing cheap flights and flew out to corfu yesterday arriving at the tsaros apartments which are fantastic! People are surprised we are only here for the weekend until i explain that it would have taken longer and cost more to have gone to london. Here in san stef everything is now open, the sunbeds were put out across the beach this morning and the beach has been cleaned, after a windy day yesterday today is calm warm and sunny so the village has a real happy summer feel to it. So whats new? The chinese is open and looks smart filling in a gap in the high street, the athina pool has a new beach hut at the end serving drinks and snacks to the pool and beach, there is a new supermarket near spiros bikes. Most hotels are open but the perros is still shut for some reason. Last night is was surprisingly busy, we ate at the little prince which was over half full, spiros is back and competing with thenasis to be the best dancer! Prices generally are the same as last year but with the local exchange rate of 1.23 its a lot cheaper you can eat out for less than £10 each with wine. As for the crises there is no sign of it here the corfiets say its a mainland problem. Must get back to my mythos i only have two days left! Andy

 :)It`s so good to hear first hand that everything is up and running, just checked the web cam and it looks good with the nice blue sky. The only problem is that that we are not there enjoying it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and i hope the weather stays fine for you.

Nice to hear the first report of the year, and that everything seems well. Hope things remain that way!
Good to hear that the locals consider it a mainland problem - although if the worst happens then i fear that the islands may suffer as badly as the mainland.
Enjoy the Mythos Andy!! Have one for all of us stuck in a cold uk.

Andy - how FAB is that!  A weekend in Ag Stef - how I hate the fact that I have to have school hols!  Enjoy.

Many thanks for the update, its reassuring to hear that things appear normal and prices are not dissimilar to last year. Lots of things may still to happen before the main season but it is nice to see SS busy and functioning well so early.  Just out of interest did you take a private transfer from the airport? Wondering re fuel and taxi prices this year? Hope the weather holds and you enjoy your weekend.
