Where to stay / Re: Nafsika Hotel
« on: August 31, 2013, 09:56:22 AM »
Hi Bee
We have stayed at the Nafsika for the last couple of years at the end of July/beginning of August.
Both stays have been brilliant.
This year we took our grown up children and partners and they all really loved it as well, our eldest and boyfriend are already looking to go back next year.
The rooms are either on the first or second floor, no ground floor rooms or lift I'm afraid.
There are no mosquito nets in the room but all have air con at 35 euros per week. In high season air con is essential, and if you do book get a sea view room as the views are to die for.
The food is some of the best in the village in our opinion and the half board is really good value.
The pool is one of the best and of course is just over the road from the beach.
I'm sure you would really like it although the lack of ground floor rooms could be the only drawback.

Hi Silverstar
Will be quite happy to spam DB as Jimbo suggests as the removal of negative reviews, especially as it was balanced and objective, is totally unacceptable and makes a complete mockery of TA.

Just read your review on trip advisor, very good and objective, but I think if we had received that sort of treatment we would have been a lot more scathing.
Have often thought of going up there for a celebratory meal but will be sticking to Beachcombers.

Have to agree with Rilo about wine at the Naksika.
Speros has a good wine list and will probably match your wine to your meal

We were pleased with the price.
We've been keeping an eye on the price since we got back 3 weeks ago and they have dropped a lot in the last few days so we thought we would strike while the iron was hot. Thomsons must need a few bookings at the moment.
In fact it is cheaper than last year and we booked a couple of days after we got back last year.

As you say its nice to have something to look forward to but it is soooooooooo far away.

Looked at going independently with flights with Jet2 and booking direct with the Nafsika but with the cost of a transfer included there was only about £20 in it.
But we are tied to the school hols so there is never much between going independently and going with Thomsons.

We were feeling the same, so as Thomson prices have dropped we've succumbed and booked up for next year.  ;D

£675 each for half board at the Nafsika at the end of July.
That's a £125 cheaper than when they first came out a couple of months ago.
We are happy with that price but no doubt the prices will drop some more now that we have booked.

If this is true feel very sorry for those locals who are out of pocket - money they can ill afford to lose in these tough times.

I'm with you Jules as we prefer to eat Greek/Mediterranean food when on holiday.

Not for me either, so tend to stick to the old village, but as Jimbo says keeps people in work and if you like that sort of entertainment then you will be well catered for. Variety is the spice of life.

Where to stay / Re: Best self catering accomodation
« on: August 12, 2013, 11:25:31 PM »
Would agree with Jimbo about the Little Prince. Rooms are excellent - some of the best self catering accommodation we've stayed in in Greece.

Believe there is a very good description in the new Thomson brochure.

San Stefanos news and views / New Hairdresser in the Village
« on: August 07, 2013, 10:06:08 PM »
Patricia (from the Nafsika) has recently opened a new Hair dresser in the old part of the town - next door to Beachcombers.

She offers cutting (men's and women's) and colouring, highlights, manicures, pedicures, massages, waxing, eyebrow shaping, etc. all at reasonable prices.

There were several ladies from the Nafsika who all had cuts and colours and highlights there and were all highly delighted at the quality of their hairdos as well as the very reasonable prices charged.

Hopefully her website will be up and running in the near future.

We came back on Monday and there were several teenagers about around the Nafsika, they had just finished their AS and A-levels (so around 17 and 18) nice and quiet around the pool and they went of to Sidari in the evening. There were also various other younger teens around. All seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves with us old farts.

Certainly worth the effort, the views are well worth it.
Go up past Shane's juice bar rather than the track by the Nafsika. The track by the Nafsika is far steeper.

Came back yesterday after another excellent stay at the Nafsika.
Mozzies not bad too bad there as long as you were careful to apply plenty of repellent in the evening. Only about 10 bites between the 6 of us in the 2 weeks we were there.
There were several people there who had not been applying and were covered in bites, one poor soul had 25 bites in one evening after going to the Greek dancing night at Summer Dreams.
I think the plenty of deet or similar has to be the order of the day - better to be safe than sorry as the little blighters can certainly ruin your holiday.

Thanks Diane.
Leave for airport 1.00 am. Whole family already clock watching. Fear it is going to be a long afternoon/evening.
