Out and About / Re: Trips
« on: May 14, 2018, 11:44:30 PM »
Hey Gavlos!
Have you planned your trips yet? We've done a few really good ones!
The Grand Island Tour is fantastic- did it a few years ago but I'm booking it for my mum and dad's birthdays this year as I know they will love it too.
Theo's Boat Trip is awesome for the kids - it's like a family friendly party boat, takes you over to the Greek mainland for an amazing BBQ on the beach with watersports etc. You then get to jump off the boat at a lagoon. The boat journey is about 1.5 hours there and same back but it's a party atmosphere!! Theo and Harris (his son) are what makes this trip so special but you have to book it through Thomsons. You can book direct but it ends up costing more for your own transfers.
Paxos and Anti Paxos were fab.
Corfu town by boat in the evening was great.
Hire your own boat from Noula and go round to Paleokastritsa or some of the smaller beaches.
Water Park is good - I didn't but then men and kids in our party did and loved it.

Still reading your lovely posts and wishing I was there! Just wanted to give a wee review of Hippopots!
We arrived in San Stefanos on 4th July. On Sunday 6th we decided to have a few hours out of the sun and headed for Hippopots. You made us feel most welcome and we loved our couple of hours with you, blethering about your life in San Stefanos, setting up your business, your time in Florida etc. What interesting lives you both lead!!
We each chose to paint a mug - 3 different shapes - and three very different outcomes! Painting them in the shade was a lovely relaxing experience.
We loved walking by every day and shouting hello to you and Bod, it felt like being at home!
We picked up our glazed mugs a few days later and were all delighted with them. We'll treasure them forever as this was our first visit to SS. Can't wait to come back next year and add something else to our handpainted collection!
(Can't seem to upload any photos but will post them to your Facebook page! See you next year!)
Gill, Ralph & Leah!

San Stefanos news and views / Re: Hungarian Beatles at 3W
« on: August 11, 2014, 05:46:02 PM »Hi gillybean,
Coming from Liverpool myself I know you will have a fantastic time in my city.
I am sure the Beatles weekend will be fab as usual but there's so much more to see and do and in my biased view it is now a world class city both for culture and nightlife.
Hope you both have a great time
Hi Maxg!
Thanks for this! We've been down to Liverpool a couple of times and really love it! We've booked the Premier Inn right in the city centre so everything will be on hand! I fancy doing the Beatles Experience as well as taking in a few bands around the city. What else would you suggest as a MUST SEE while we are there?
Cheers
Gillybean

I have to agree! Hubby and I are big Beatles fans, went to see Let It Be in June and have planned our anniversary weekend in Liverpool for the Beatles weekend. So when we saw the "Help" band advertised on a lamp-post when we were in San Stef a couple of weeks ago we decided to go! Well worth seeing...they were superb! Great atmosphere in the bar too!

Where to stay / Tsaros - Aircon and Safety Deposit Boxes
« on: June 24, 2014, 05:05:30 PM »
Hi all!
Only 10 days to go! Much excitement!
Wondering if someone could tell me if there is air con available at Tsaros? Is so, how much does it cost?
Also, do they have safes or safety deposit boxes?
Thanks!

Information and help please / Re: THOMSON ON-LINE CHECK-IN ADVICE PLEASE
« on: June 19, 2014, 04:34:17 PM »Hi Gilly, I know what you mean regarding the suitcases, hopefully someone will be able to shed some light on what happens to the cases at drop off, I like to see the barcode attached to the case and knowing next time I see it (well hopefully) we will be in arrivals at Corfu airport.
Yeah, exactly, it's not so much the drop off, it's the what happens next! I like to see them labelled up and loaded onto the conveyor belt too!

Thanks for that. Yeah, I did think that the bag drop-off may be busy too so I've booked a cab which will get us there 2 hours before departure. Once the cases are off our hands I'll have no problem passing a couple of hours....a nice big brekkie to start the day will mark the start of our long-awaited holiday.

Information and help please / THOMSON ON-LINE CHECK-IN ADVICE PLEASE
« on: June 19, 2014, 01:01:30 PM »
Hi everyone!
With only 2 weeks to go until we fly out
I'm looking ahead to the check-in process. We're flying from Edinburgh International Airport and are able to do Thomson on-line check-in 7 days before we fly. This sounds great to me as I HATE the queues at the airport!!
However, my question is, when you arrive at the airport what happens to your cases? I'm a bit of a control freak that way...my case took 4 days to arrive in Menorca once and I panic that the same will happen again!!
All advice appreciated!!
Thanks in advance

San Stefanos news and views / Re: Selecting seats! Plus other issues with Thomson
« on: June 11, 2014, 02:34:12 AM »
hey Jacksi, i had a brief problem with Thomson today. i went into the site to input my APIs and although the option was on the screen it wasn't 'clickable'. Then i noticed that at the top of the page it asks you for your email address so that confirmation of your seat selection/extras can be sent to you. once you put in your email address the options below become clickable.
We use Thomson every year but this year the admin/customer service has slipped and I've been disappointed. they gave me wrong dates for our balance to be paid and started sending me demands and cancellation notices 2 weeks before the actual due date. The balance was different on the email than it was in the letter as well. Unnecessary stress.
Hope you manager to get it sorted

« on: May 22, 2014, 04:20:20 PM »Nice one, we stayed at Tsaros the year before last, amazing views from the above the bar area and only a short walk to the top of the hill and over to arillas and breathtaking views!! :-) hope yr not adverse to steep hills tho as Tsaros is a steep climb, didn't bother us and I loved being close to the top.. Don't really want to wish my life away but..... ROLL on July 4th!! :-D
Oh I've been hearing about Cardiac Hill! I must say, it kind of put me off when I first heard about it but not bothered now as I've heard great reviews of Tsaros! Have been in training at the gym for the last couple of months anyway so should be able to cope fine, lol! We'll be wearing our stickers so look out for us! There's me (43), hubby (45) and daughter (12)! ROLL on July 4th!!

Oooh, we fly out 6 weeks on Friday too!! It's our first visit to SS but 4th visit to Corfu. We're staying at Tsaros. I'm loving this forum and the Facebook page!
