Re: 5 weeks and counting...

They are nice - we went and looked at them - I don't think you'll find them too much of a stroll - - you could do it in about 10-15 mins walk from the centre of the main street depending how quickly you walk - me - I would say relax and take a slow 20 min stroll back...

Hi Holidaygirl,
Just returned from 2 weeks at the Rose Garden - excellent!

Don't worry about the walk into San Stefanos - you soon get used to it and only takes 10 minutes leisurely walk. All roads are well lit.

Less than 2 weeks now Les Shark Boy 

[Les Shark Boy]

Yep! Been thinking I should get the suitcases down from the loft! 

[Jules]

Ours are already down

[tonyco1]

Ours are down as well - and 4 weeks to go for us...

[Les Shark Boy]

That's forward planning Tony! 

[Jimbo]

I haven't even unpacked most of mine yet. Might as well leave it there!

It's 12 days and counting for me ....

I'm returning for my 14th time, however last time I was there was 2008!! I bet there has been a lot of changes, it sounds it!

Staying at the Jasmine apartments this time, usually stay at Barras but booked independently instead!

Cant wait!!

14th time! Wow em202!
This is my first visit but it's good to read that people frequently return, says a lot. 

[Jimbo]

Les Shark Boy - Some people go for the weekend!

Your first impression will probably be: what's the fuss about?

Then you will start to get the point - relax - enjoy the welcome - enjoy the views and the beach.

On your second trip everybody will remember you.

On your third trip you will be embraced in super markets, tavernas, bars and by the sun-bed renters.

On your fifth trip you'll be part of the family!

Yup that's exactly how it was for me Jimbo!!

I usually get comments about how they remember me when I was only little, about 8 years old and can't believe how quick the time has gone... (I'm now 28)!!

Very nice people! We only returned by coincidence at first- we booked one of the "square deals" I think they were called? you didnt know where you were going until the coach pulled up at the apartments. 1st time san stefanos, 2nd time arillas, 3rd san stefanos.. and then booked san stefanos since!

I can't wait to return!!

i've never ever considered going for shorter than 2 weeks, but I can see why people do it! Might keep that idea in the back of my mind

14th time! Wow em202!
This is my first visit but it's good to read that people frequently return, says a lot. 

I've been trying to calculate how many times we have visited San Stefanos since 1987 but I lost count at 50!

Wow 50!!! that is unreal!!  Do you have your own place there? would have been worthwhile!!

I think 1993 was my first time!

2 weeks tomorrow for us 

Just need to get a camping weekend behind us and then we can get the cases ready. Need to sort out a couple of new shirts at least, otherwise the holiday photo's just look the same as last year!!
