The Terezas was 35 euros a week. It was definately needed when we went at the end of July! :)

Where to eat out in San Stefanos? / Re: Spoilt for choice 2012!

We came back on the 10th August, I think we have been to most of the restaurants over the last few years and I have to say the Beachcomber is one of our many favourites! I  think its unfair to say a place is poor on here as this could put people of from going. All the the restaurants we ate at were wonderful, as were the people that worked in them. Hard working and friendly.

Ha ha Loftyscot, according to friends we missed "the summer" while we were away. We used the Olga pool several times and pleased to say everything seemed fine, they were were busy, and have got some sort of deal with Thomas Cook as well as taking independent bookings. We had a few late night nectars with Dimmos, you can imagine! Did you know Ryan air are doing flights to Corfu from Prestwick.

We came back on the 10th August, and it feels like months ago, anyway I thought I would share a few of our moments with you all.
We hired a taxi to pick us up at the airport from San Stefanos travel 54 euros each way, which was a bargain. There was four of us, a mini bus turned up as I was a bit worried how four of us would get in a taxi!
Firstly we stayed at the Teresa's, I was a bit worried about the hill, but we found a short cut behind the the back block, I am not sure if it was a right of way but nobody said we couldn't go this way. We stayed in the block at the back, on the top floor with glorious views of the village, beach and sea. Although some rooms at the back don't have a view, but I wouldn't have cared where our room was. Our room had a little fridge, hairdryer and kettle. The rooms at the front had bigger fridge and no hairdryer (daughter and sister stayed in the front block). Aircon was needed at 35 euros a week which we didn't mind. The bar and restaurant are lovely, with the best views. For you guys who are wondering what you get for B & B, it is fine, enough to keep my hubby going till lunch. two items of the same thing; ie two sausages & two eggs, or cereal or yogurt, tea coffee and toast. We only had one meal at the Teresa's and that was at the Greek night, the whole night was a great experience, which everyone seemed to enjoy. The family and staff are all wonderful and I would recommend the Teresa to anyone.
We ate somewhere different everynight, and can only say the restaurants were as good as the each other. Special mention to Manthos, my husband got hooked on his spicy mussels and prawns starter so we spent many a lunchtimes there with a few wines and mythos, Manthos himself is quite a character and he kept us going with his stories, we had to laugh when anyone brought out a camera he would get out a large live lobster and get in the photo, him and the lobster! very funny.  It was my daughters birthday and we went to the Beachcomber which is my favourite place, the lady that owns it produced a lovely cake with candles and just then the guys that go about singing with the guitars turned up, and sung happy birthday, it was a really nice touch.
The Condor, Acibar (think that's its name) and Bar 38 seemed to be trying to outdo themselves with loud music!! but it was turned down after a few nights. We saw "Michael Jackson" and "Jessie J" which was okay, but that's about all I can say about entertainment as we are happy with a few drinks a meal and home.
This is our second time to San Stef and I am sure it won't be our last. The people have to be the nicest, friendliest and genuine people I have met.
As soon as I arrived I felt instantly de-stressed, normally on holiday it takes a few days to feel this way, but in San Stef I felt this way as soon as I could see the village from the mini bus, strange! A Wonderful holiday again :)

Where to stay / Re: Has Thomsons dropped Tsaros Apartments ?
« on: July 20, 2012, 04:00:08 PM »
Regarding hotels going independent, the Olga has done it this year, and as much as we would have loved to have gone to the Olga again the flights from Edinburgh cost £354.00 each, and a package holiday to the Teresas B&B only cost £420.00 from Edinburgh on the same flight!! So it made sense for us to book the package holiday. I don't know how much flights cost elsewhere, hopefully cheaper than Edinburgh! and the Tsaros apartments don't loose out because of this.

I am sure the Olga bar opened around 9am. If not its only a few minutes walk to the supermarket and nice places for a good breakfast.

We stayed at the Olga last year, and I don't think the bar would be open at that time in the morning. Their e-mail address is:
 info@olga-hotel.com I am sure someone will reply to you. Hope you have a great holiday :) we did ;D
