Where to eat out in San Stefanos? / Re: Summer Dreams.
« on: August 03, 2014, 07:56:25 PM »
We went several times in July this year. It's a lovely spot and the service is very friendly. We only had lunch on a couple of occasions but had drinks about 3 times. We were always amazed it was so quiet. Deserves more custom! :)

San Stefanos news and views / Re: Airport security
« on: August 01, 2014, 01:46:00 PM »
Last year we were travelling with Thomson and the coach transfer took well over an hour. This year we travelled independently and Maria (at Peli & Maria's) booked a taxi for us. It was fantastic just going straight to Agios Stefanos without all the stop offs, or more importantly, sitting on the coach at the airport waiting for all the other people to finally get though baggage etc and get on the coach. The taxi took around 45 minutes and we were still able to enjoy the wonderful countryside. It cost 50 Euros.

At Corfu airport on the way home, I was stopped at the security bit you go through as I'd set off the alarm. The security woman told me to take off all my jewellery and come through again. She was still not happy and I got a full frisk pat down. She went everywhere including inside my bra! First time in all my decades of travel to be frisked. She did it twice, then shrugged, and told me it was ok. My husband was standing watching this laughing!

Georgia..... Think that might have been us! Did we buy a blow up crocodile?!

It was an older couple, the gentleman was white haired and very jolly.

If any of you forum members go into the paper shop and Maria is there, ask her "do you sell banana liqueur"

She will know who you've been talking to!  She has a great sense of humour.

We were in there browsing and a couple came in and asked that question! We didn't get the joke as Maria and them started laughing. I bought two lovely dresses from her. It's a very nice shop.

Hi georgia,glad you had a great time.regarding pegasus ferry.is there a time table down at the harbour?

Yes, there's a printed timetable pinned to a wee building that looks like it might have been a ticket office at one time, it's next to the loo. It goes to Ericoussa on a Friday, leaved harbour at 10.15, you pay the fare on board, it arrives at Ericoussa at 11.00 and leaves again for San Stef at 14.45, getting back into harbour at 15.30.

It goes to Mathraki and Othoni Mondays and Wednesday. There's not much on Mathraki and it's better to stay on the boat and go on to Othoni.

We're just back from San Stefanos, and we took the Pegasus over to Othoni one day and Ericoussa another time. Well worth it.

Just back from SS, and we really liked Summer Dreams, Manthos, and Yiannis. We ate in Little Prince once and two or three breakfasts at Two Stars (if that's the one with the canaries). Havana was great for lunch.

Ah, sorry - didn't know it was Top Secret!  :)

We were in the top floor of the villa at the very top of the path, wonderful views and falling asleep to the sound of the surf at night. I think this must have been the best apartment I've ever stayed in, in all my years of visiting Greece.

Where to stay / Pelli and Maria Apartments

This is only our second visit to San Stef, and last time we stayed at Vicky Apartments with Thomas Cook. However we picked up a leaflet at Pelli & Maria's Shop for their apartments and decided to go independently next time. I must say, these are wonderful apartments, clean, well set out and decorated, and the maid service is excellent, and we will definitely come back to San Stef - of course! - and next time we will have no hesitation in going back to Pelli & Maria's Apartments. Wonderful value, great location.

Great news everyone, thanks for letting me know. I can leave all my hair apparatus at home and go to Patricia instead.
(We get there 2 weeks on Tuesday - can't come quick enough).

Hello there, this July will be our second visit to San Stefanos. I think I've seen a mention somewhere that there is a hair salon in the village. Can anyone tell me where it is, and if you have used it - how was it? It would be great not to have to pack a dryer, straighteners etc. etc. Thank you!
