San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

Hello all, I've not been on here since last year but thought I'd pop back on as we're thinking about coming back to SS this year.
I'm shocked by what Rod has said as we would like to return to the Mythos. 

Tony, not sure I'd agree with you concerning the standard of the Mythos, our apartment was absolutely beautiful and couldn't fault a single thing (and believe me, I'm the biggest snob going!!). All fixtures and fittings were of an excellent standard.

I was going to book today, but not sure I'll bother now........

The problem with the Mythos apartments is that they are now under the control of Thomas Cook, or that's what Thomas Cook like to think. George (one of the owners) isn't happy with them as he still has independant bookings and despite telling Thomas Cook, they overbook. George is great but is a busy man, so mistakes are bound to happen.
I would hazard a guess that Thomas Cook didn't check and they have a overlap with independant bookings at the Mythos.

This isn't just the case for people using transport on the roads.
You should also ask your insurance provider whether it covers water sports (no dirty comments please  ) and even boat trips.

Strange, we had a 20kg allowance each on Thomas Cook 

Thanks Belgianram,

Thats made my wife's evening!

Pleasure Andy.

The prices are cheaper than San Stef, or they were last week.
These were the Sidari averages:

Pint = €2
3-course meal (like Zorba's etc) = €6 - €7

The steakhouse looked great value, a 20 oz T-Bone steak for €5.50 - Bloody brilliant value.

Air conditioning is available at the Mythos apartments at a cost of €7 per day.
However, most people didn't bother as you can close the shutter doors at an angle which allows a breeze to come in. The other impressive thing is that the double glazing door have a mosquito (sp) net attached. You just pull this down and lock it in place and Bob's your uncle, mossie free nights!! 

I think the "regulars" of San Stef need to chill a little.
I think Zimmers assessment is pretty accurate.

It is not a quiet village as some people make out and is far more commercial than I expected from reading this forum.
Having said that, it is still as brit resorts go, a very small and quiet resort.

I loved my holiday as did my partner, partly due to the fact 4 weeks ago, she was having major surgery and because it suited us down to the ground. The holiday only cost us £600 and was exceptional value for money.
