bigjohn:
I have been a regular to SS for 12 years now and have regularly followed this forum and have (finally!) decided to take the plunge.

Am looking at Vicky apartments for this year, purely based on its location. Can you lovely people please give me your honest opinions as there are quite frankly some shocking recent reviews out there mainly on cleanliness and speaking to a couple last June they were not impressed at all.

I did used to be member of the Facebook groups but quite frankly I had to remove my membership based on how they're run. I hope for a different experience here.

Hi John, having a member on here who works at the Vicky and likely knows many on here, so I think it might be awkward for some to comment if they don’t like the place! Not stayed there ourselves as we prefer the other end of the village and we have only just last year returned after a long absence. We did not visit the Vicky pool this time around, but did so (for the pool) many years ago and it was very friendly and quite quiet, with easy access to the beach. No idea how things have changed.
Hope you do have a better experience here than Fartbook, but on-line has become perceived as an evil place… I suspect a lot has to do with our own inability to realise we often take written words out or context or as we (often wrongly) see them at face value. I’ve not been on here long, but in that short time have found everyone to be very nice and helpful.

maggiesaes:
Big John I have never stayed there or visited and I read some of those bad reviews.
All I will say is that we have friends who stay  there every year- she is a nurse-well sister actually,so I doubt she would keep returning if things were bad.

Jimbo:
We've stayed at Vicky - and very nice it was. Dirty??? Not at all. Giorgos and Nicola are great hosts. Really, some people make ridiculous complaints and expect 5 start service in a 2 start apartment.

Richard/Jackie/Nathan:
We stayed there a few years ago and they were spotless. Even when we stayed elsewhere we always returned to use the pool until a couple of years ago when the umbrellas were concreted in so you couldn't move them to stay in the shade. I burn easy so that's an important thing for me and it was a shame as the setting is perfect We know brave a bit of the hill each day and use Kapetanios pool. I also left one of the Facebook groups over their ridiculous policy of not allowing criticism of anything - we all love the village but nowhere is 100% perfect!!
