Been price watching for the last 2 months for 2010 visit to San Stef thru' Portland.
We stayed at Terezas in June this year and were planning to return for 2nd half of June 2010. But i guess it must be almost fully booked now for next June. Why?
Well, looked tonite and now up to staggering £550 - £600 for 14 nights for June dates.
Knowing what Leo and Fannis get paid by Tui for each booking/night, it's v.little, TUI must be absolutely coining it in from Tereza's for June next year!
If we're going to re-visit next June looks like we'll have to do easyjet from BTL, and private booking at alternative accomodation in San Stef. Where's best guys? Flights at mo will cost £300 for the two of us. Looking to spend about another £400-£500 for 14 nights accomodation. Don't want to be too far out from centre of village.
Any advice appreciated.
Regards

Bristle Boy............... Have a look at Tui/Thomson/Portland as accommodation only we've done this for the last 3 years and saved a fortune!! Worked out cheaper than independent booking!
-
Hi you can book direct at the Athena hotel and that works out cheaper than thomson if you contact Olga by e mail at hotelathina@yahoo.gr

Just tried this on Thomson.co.uk and for an 11 night stay in June 2010 it came up with one hotel in San Stef! The Romanza at £429, so not bad but i would like a little more choice!
I'll search this site and internet. I'm thinking of Fedre Mare, Little Prince or there was one place we saw in June opposite Paradise taverna that looked OK. Anyone recommend anywhere?
-
fedra mare and christina appts are 390 euro for 2 weeks in june both nice places and no hill at the quite end of san steph

I posted this info earlier but for some reasons it did not come up: so here go again:::
Try www.nondas.web.com/email Sally ..salnonda@otenet.gr:
Well within your price limits and include aircon and transfer; great location with good food, oxygenated pool just outside your door and there is a short cut to lessen the hill if this is adverse to hills!!!
-
just looked for rooms for 4 june next year for 2 weeks start at £410 for the barras and stamatis up to£883 the athina the hotel opposite the paradise is the perros i think
-
"if this adverse to hills" ment, if you can't do hills but here is a no hill location::::
Spiros at Sunset Taverna/4 Seasons Travel has posted me his NEW REDUCED PRICES FOR 2010
I could not locate his web page; www.4seasonstravel.gr BUT you may mail him on at....gizakis@otenet.gr
Now you have more of a choice so Good luck!! :)

Thanks for the info. I looked at Nondas and Perros Hotel. Both look v.nice, with Nondas at v.reasonable prices (2009 anyway, can't imagine they'll go up much for 2010). Perros a bit more expensive, but nice all the same. The inclusion of transfer from/to Corfu airport at Nondas makes it very tempting.
I'll have a look at Sunset/4 seasons now.

Hi - try this for sunset studios

Links for Sunset studios doesn't work, i'm afraid.
-
Just returned From staying at the Nondas - wonderful holiday - lovely and peaceful, lovely pool area- had it mostly to our selves for the 11 days. Lovely family run- Sally is great will do anything for you. Apartments basic but clean and have everything you need. Transfers included and Air Con. - price for next year for a studio is 200 euro. per week. brilliant price.
The short cut - cuts out the steep hill, very near to the Tsaros pool and bar.
Brilliant, would recommend.
-
Just to say, when you deduct the aircon/transfer from Nondas' price it becomes past cheap and is absolutely above "reasonable"; don't know how they can afford to work for those prices!!!! however they were fully booked from Day1 this year :) When the restaurant is working the food, ambiance etc are absolutely brilliant and in agreement with Dale/John, is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended.
Maria from Sunset has confirmed that the new web page is not yet working; the one posted by Debra shows the old and new!!
Have a good week

Emailed the Nondas contact agent yesterday, but got a reply from her today to say that she is no longer dealing with booking enquiries for Nondas from next season. Anyone know how else i can contact Nondas for a quote?
Looked on the website again and the only contact is through the agent, who no longer 'works' for them.
Had a v.competitive quote from Fedre Mare for both studio and apartment, as there's only 2 of us i guess the studio is adequate. Anyone care to comment? Any of the regs on here stayed at Fedre Mare? What's the bathroom like?
Taxi transfer - Airport to SS and return - what's the going rate? Is it best to sort thru' SS travel or thru' the accomodation? I know some offer in the price quoted, others 'on top', but still arrange? Is 50 euro e/w for the two of us reasonable?
Cheers BB

Re... Nondas, did you try email address....salnonda@otenet.gr posted on the 20-9-09? and the phone is 0030 26630 51808.
Please contact Sally who may be away for a few days accompaning Nondas to the hospital in Athens.
Her 2010 price list stated 200 Euros May to October for one bed/aps (sleeps2)and include transfer to and from the Airport
-
Fully agree with Sunset recommendation - stayed there two years ago. Nice apartments and although no sea-view, good to watch passers-by in the street!
Great family, when we went the rate included one-way taxi fare.

We stayed in the Theodosia Apts this year, on the flat, (slight slope), in between Maria & Pele Papershop and the Olympia restaurant.
i.e. 100 metres along the road from the little prince towards the beach.
She also has other many properties to choose from. Prices are less than advertised when you speak to her and ask what is the best price she can do!
ALSO: RE: NONDAS APT's. - - - -
Where exactly is the short cut?
I looked for it and could not find it!
Where does it come out as well - down the hill?
-
Thanks for info. I'll try san stef travel.
Is Fedra Mare OK? What do you think about taxi from and to airport for 50 euros e/w; is that normal price?
-
Nondas short cut - up the hill at the side of Marie's paper shop, when you get to the brow of the hill take a right turn down a concrete slope - follow round -next to Marie';s apartment - you then come to a wall - step ladder in place - climb over the wall onto breeze blocks, watch out for the Quince's!!! turn right through the trees, up a slight hill - you are at Nondas, further up the hill Tsaros. We did the walk every night - you dont need a torch - plenty of lights etc. We had a few banged heads on the Quinces!!!! If you go left at the brow of the hill - takes you on a shingle path to bring you at the cross roads near Barras.
-
Thanks Dale & John - must explore that one next visit!!
Bristol Boy - 50 is good - it was 55 when we went!
-
Tony - thanks for reply on taxi price. Nearly all set to book for 2010. Sadly not at Terezas via Portland - too expensive. The guys at terezas would be fine if they went independent, that's for sure!
Just waiting for clearance at work on my holiday request for next year and then i'll be booking!
-
San Stef Travel charge 53 each way for taxi for 2.. Reductions if mini bus used and sharing! Always been a good service. No waiting. No queueing.
-
Yes - we used the Mini Bus last Holiday - Cost us about one third less.
