Out and About / Arianna's Cafe

Does anyone know of this café (it may be called Erianna's) supposedly on the headland near the small chapel. If so is it worth the walk?

San Stefanos news and views / San Stefanos Review

Just returned from our holiday to San Stefanos and I can see why so many people return year after year.

Accommodation - Rose Garden
Excellent first week, just as expected, peaceful and relaxing, second week not so peaceful. As the Rose Garden is so popular, several members of a large family group unable to book here (staying in Barras, Thomas Bay etc.) descended on the Rose Garden to use their pool and bar. I know that this is the norm for some regulars but it did disrupt our stay. No problem with the adults who we got on with very well but their children were very noisy in the pool on occasion. 

Kiki and Yiannis are excellent hosts along with their extended family who all help around the place. Lunches were very good - I can recommend the Tuna Salad and Mythos. Room was better than a lot of places we have been to before with a great view. Greek night BBQ was very good but avoided the second week for the same reason as above.

Eating out
We tended to stick to the older part of the village, eating at Olympia, O Manthos, Two Stars, Summer Dream, Fantasea and Yiannis Grill (the one near 3 W's Bar) Our favourites of these were the Olympia and Fantasea. I had the biggest pork chop ever one night in Fantasea and a huge T-bone steak on another visit.

Bars
We started out visiting El Greco's before our meal but as we started to venture further we soon changed to the Summer Dream - great service, friendly staff and comfortable seating.

All in all a great holiday and we will probably return some time in the future, we are still looking at other Greek islands but have started to revisit our favourite destinations (Kefalonia earlier this year and Thassos is already booked for July 2014).

I would like to thank all members of this site for their useful knowledge and helpful tips and advice.  Have great summer!

Out and About / Akrotiri bar

We will be staying at the Rose Garden Studios from 19th July for 2 weeks this year, our first visit to Corfu.  I have been watching videos of the Akrotiri bar located on the headland and the views look spectacular.  Can anyone please let me know the best walking route to this bar.  Thanks.

We have booked into the Rose Garden Studios for 2 weeks next July/August.  Can anyone please let me know which is the nearest supermarket (how far to walk) and will the bakery be open?

Thanks
