San Stefanos Online ~ North West Corfu

Thanks Lesley, we are already booked for next year through Thomas Cook but will certainly look at Easyjet prices for 2016 as we have not been able to get any cheap flights in the past.
Katie,

Hi Lizzie,

Hope you had a great holiday.  Were there many other tourists in the village at the end of the season and were there many places still open?  The weather looked lovely on the webcam.

Hi Diane,

We were in Katelios in June last year and returned to San Stefanos in September.    People we spoke to who were staying at the Magnolia Resort said the rooms and food were fantastic and the hotel is set in lovely surroundings.  Katelios is very quiet with no buses and expensive taxis so you needed to hire a car if you wanted to go anywhere else. Although we enjoyed our holiday in Kefalonia, San Stefanos is still our favourite and we look forward to returning again in June this year.

Hi Lilly

A.P.I. was not required when we flew to Corfu with Thomas Cook in September.

I agree with everything you say Jim.  We always bring as many cigarettes as we can fit into our suitcases as there is no way we would pay UK prices.

Here is a link to the Wine Festival.  According to information on the Arillas forum the Festival is held in the village.  It sounds like a great occasion.

We also flew with Mint Airlines from Newcastle last year and agree it was the worst flight we had ever experienced.  Our local Thomas Cook shop said they had had a lot of complaints about the cramped conditions.   Despite the awful flight we have booked with Thomas Cook again this year as we like to stay at the Kapetanios Apartments.  This week we received a letter from Thomas Cook saying that they have contracted SmartLynx (apparently a Latvian company) to assist them with their flying programme for the 2012 summer season.   I do not know if this is just for Newcastle flights or if it applies to any other airports but hope their aeroplanes are better than the Spanish Mint ones.

Are you able to say what you have heard about the closing of Mythica?  It was one of our favourite places to eat and I am so sorry to hear that it will not be opening this year.
