Title: Verdict first time in S.S.
Post by: eelvis on July 06, 2010, 09:50:54 PM

Have just spent my first week in San Stefanos, must say it lives up to the hype. Having a young family, it is the ideal safe holiday. There are many lovely restaurants, with the Beachcomber standing as my favourite, and we found everyone very friendly and would come back. We found the resort to be reasonable priced and actually came back with Euros. The beach was OK but the sea was very shallow and great for kids.

Now you understand why so many return again and again, and you only touched on some of the reasons!

Must join you in agreement - we have just returned from our first visit too, we absolutely loved it, the resort lived up to all everyone has said about it.  We thought food and drink were very good value for money, people so very friendly, and nearly everyone we spoke to had been to SS before.  We like yourself loved Beachcombers but we did not have a bad meal anywhere.  What we liked also was the fact that the drinks were within 50 cents difference no matter where you sat down, most places very much the same price and had such a diverse selection of different types of bars from the very modern Bar 38 to the very typical greek. We loved the tribute acts in the Condor - wow was "Rod Stewart" good!!!  In fact we have today just booked again for next year, in early September this time.  My hubby wants to add that as someone who takes a few days to unwind from a very labour intensive 3 shift job, he relaxed from the first day and did'nt want to come home, that is the beauty of the place.

Totally agree Madge. The minute you are there you can't help but relax.

Glad Don and Sandra got back ok. We met "Shellbell" and "Cockney in Hull" on the boat to Mathraki and Othoni, and keep meeting others.

Heat wave forecast for next week, according to Mikhalis at Little Prince.

Bring it on!
