San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

Thanks to those who recommended Glens' cheesy chips and bacon....me and the other half had them quite a few times (was on a bit of a budget so very cheap choice!)

Hope you all had good holidays....came home yesterday, just uploaded my photos and have got the holiday blues big time already 

Knew I shouldn't keep checking it, theres rain forecast for next Tuesday and Weds now, please let it change!!

Anyone know how the weather was this weekend after?

Any rain/mistrals? 4 days and counting.....!

Hi Bazza,

there is definately a kettle in the room, and a mini fridge too!

Thanks

Hiya all...

Flying out with Thomsons next Fri the 27th (package deal) and we land about 1pm all being well. Last time I'm sure the transfer with Thomsons took approx 2 hours (we dropped off in Agios Georgios I think?!) but not Sidari. Can anyone confirm that this is still the case this season? On Thomsons site its saying that transfers to the Athina take 2.5 hours!!

Don't want to be stuck on a bus for any longer than this, but the more I read this thread I'm worrying about other planes being delayed etc and us having to wait on the bus, and basically wasting our day!

I swear I'm never 'happy' unless I got something to worry about!!

Thanks

Hello,

Didnt need the safe last time I was at the Athina, just wondering if they have them in the rooms, and how much do they cost? Don't want to wear my engagement ring in the day with sand sea, pool etc but want to be able to wear it in the evenings so leaving it at home isn't an option!

Thanks 

Thanks Lesley! That helps with my packing plans quite a bit!

Good choice you've made too! Will be returning to the Athina on the 27th for a fortnight, havent been since 2006. Fab hotel though, really friendly staff. We didnt arrive until after 11pm when we went but they left the restaurant open for us as they thought we'd be hungry!!

The views from the dining area are stunning, have never seen a sunset like it! Have read a few criticisms of the food there, but every night there's a choice of 4 or 5 starters and main meals, the food is cooked perfectly. Along with the bread basket and side salad (that changes daily) I rarely had room for dessert!

The bar is quiet in the evening, but perfect for relaxation. Only a few minutes stroll away from the main drag though so that's not a problem at all if you want food/drinks elsewhere.

Pool area is second to none, our rep said it was the largest pool in Corfu, and could well be! There is never a fight for sunbeds, no need to get up early - think there are around 3 times as many sunbeds available as there are guests!

Anyways, I'll stop rambling on now, know you'll have a great time!!
