Welcome to San Stefanos (NW Corfu) > Where to stay

Romanza Hotel

Rod:
The wife and I returned on Friday just gone and what a wonderful time spent at the Romanza Hotel.  I was a little concerned about the hill as I have a "knackered knee" but I managed it quite well and it became easier as the holiday progressed.

The food was very good in the Romanza and the staff were perfect.  Thanks Katerina, Dimitris, Andreas, Speros, Eleni and Stella.

My only moan was not regarding the Romanza itself but the actions of some of the guests.  Let me explain.  I must stress the issue I am about to expand on was more irritating than a full blown problem to me and my wife.  There was a small party of five people who "booked" the same sunbeds for the whole of the two week stay.  I kid you not, the same five sunbeds!  We were going for breakfast at roughly 8:30 am and there were the "booked" sunbeds.  What then occurred was a domino effect where other guests started "booking" their sunbeds.  It was not unusual for anywhere between 12 and 20 sunbeds to be draped in  various coloured towels and not one single person present around the pool.  This has to be the most SELFISH act anyone can do on holiday in my opinion.  Even more annoying was the fact sometimes these beds were not being occupied until approx 11:00 and sometimes left unoccupied for most of the day.  Sometimes "owners" of the sunbeds would make a brief appearance and then bugger off to another pool down the village because they deemed it too windy around the Romanza pool.  UNBELIEVABLE!  It did not bother the wife and I too much (honestly) as we like to wander around anyway.  It would be a shame though if an infirm person was not able to sit or lie around the pool due to these SELFISH people.  Totally out of order!

Jules:
Agree Rod. It is something we wouldn't wish to see every day by the pool at Tereza. After all there is plenty of room for everyone.

I've never seen that before in San Stef. Its one of the things that make it such a nice place. We stay at Terezas and have never had a problem getting a sunbed at any time.

Must admit I was always up early at the Romanza to put our towels down when we stayed there however we never ever left it for more than an hour around lunchtime. 
The Tsaros this year often had no beds reserved before 10am.
Occasionally I was the first around 10.30am. Bliss

Jaxbubbles:
I agree Rod, one of the reasons we love San Stef is there is none of that up at the crack of dawn to get a sunbed. Everywhere we have stayed has been so laid back with no stress. I would have thought the management should have had a word with them. I would have been mad if I had no where to sunbath and people had reserved beds and didn't use them.
