There now appears to be no less than eight establishments fighting out the right to take our cash

From left to right looking from the sea
Havana
Pictures
Mango
Joia
180 degrees
Athina
Waves
Sandhill
Manthos

Can they all make it pay?

Hi we are still here until Friday.
Very sad news about such a young man passing away. The story is he had a heart attack. I didn’t see him this year but apparently he had put on a tremendous amount of weight. So sad. The staff everywhere is sad. The funeral I believe is Thursday.
The food everywhere we feel has been really good. My favourite is still waves but brusko and spetseriko also very good in our opinion. We have been to tasty corner a couple of times this year and both times been lovely.
Some menus have changed but you can always find something that appeals.
This afternoon had turned windy and they are expecting the next 3 days to be very windy.
Going to Bar 38 tonight as Roll the Dice band on and we have enjoyed them again this year.
New apartments do look nice Winkie and congrats to Mrs Winkie what a nice place to stay for a special treat. Lots of people we are speaking to have already booked again for next year.

Thanks for the update Scottygirl, I forgot you were there at LP, we were in for dinner 3 times, during our trip, hope you enjoy the rest of your stay.

Where to stay / Paralia.

Located next to Delfino Blu, these suites are fabulous, we stayed one week in the Island suite for Mrs Winkies birthday. Admittedly, they are expensive, but for a special occasion, like ours, they are an amazing place to celebrate. Fully fitted kitchen, separate walk in rain shower and loo, toiletries included, and large comfy bed. Outside, is an incredible patio, with loungers, table and chairs, bali bed, and your own private pool, and the best of all, the view of the beach and sea. We booked with Booking. Com, but you can book with Kostas, the Condor owners son. Downtairs, is the Joia pool and bar, again, this is an amazing place to lunch, drink and swim, and a lovely beach view.

Pool area still not complete, the drains at the pool edge still to be installed, but what a transformation, it is really lovely with the new loungers and flowers around.

Agree about the beach and sun beds, it was shocking to see it piled in front of Waves etc, a giant mound of rotting seaweed stood there for a few days, it was eventually removed on on second last day. Another concern for us was the small bridge used for crossing the small smelly stream, it is broken in the middle, and no handrail, would not take much to repair. The sunbeds, oh dear, so close to one another, crammed like sardines in a tin, prices ranged from 7 euroes to 10 with comp water. Still our favourite beach ever, just so lovely .

Thanks for the update , appreciated. I have seen pics of the beach, it looks terrible with all the seaweed, it will be an ongoing challenge every time its stormy, glad your having a good time, enjoy the time left Scottygirl.

Massive difference to the pool area, comfy loungers, and what looks like a shady area now, near the bar. Manthos is looking busy too, lots of cars in the car park.

Been here a week now and it’s great. Weather been really good. New bar 180degrees is run by Mikes sons Spiros and Angelo. They have done a great job and adding bits to it every day. Snacks are served until 6pm and are good and really good prices too. If you go from the beach there are a lot of steps to climb but you can also go from the road next to Athena Hotel. Definitely worth making the effort they are trying really hard.
Food good everywhere we have been so far. Prices up a bit but to be expected.

Good to hear your enjoying your trip lass, its a village like no other, so friendly and charming, and a host of really good restaurants, enjoy the sun.
