Sorry to hear this missh. If it was me I would give them hell before you travel, and  take what is offered and then also give them hell when you get there and maybe they will be able to move you.

Did they say why they are no longer available? Last year I thought the apartmants were up for sale so maybe something has happened there.

Hi Missh

So sorry to hear what Thomas Cook have done! We are booked to stay at the Mythos in September so I hope that there is nothing seriously wrong!

Thomas Cook also go to the Vicky Apartments and the Kapentanios in San Steph. I would try to see if there are rooms available at one of these and asked TC to put you there.

We have just returned from SS and the resort was alot quieter than usual so there may be a chance that either of these two may have empty apartments.

Just checked the TC website and the Mythos is still being sold - to fly out on Monday, but only for a 7 night stay - chances are TC have overbooked your accommodation!

If you have no joy with the above, I would suggest that you request Arilas instead - a MUCH nicer resort than Sidari. We were told while in SS that the Tour Operators are struggling to fill Sidari and now push the accommodation here before other resorts.

Good luck, and whatever happens I hope you have a lovely holiday.

There are rooms available at Kapetanios from Monday for 2 weeks. If your flight is still held I would suggest these apartments to you.

Don't accept what they are offering you! Tell them you want San Stef and if they can't accomodate tell them you want your money back and go back to San Stef later. These holiday co.s are already taking all the money we pay for our hols, from the hotels in San Stef and across the Med.

I agree, don't give in too easily - raise hell!!!
Trouble is T-Cook have limited accommodation in SS, so little choice, but you won't like the alternative offered against S S!!
Arilas is also a better option.
Best of luck!!
