There's a lot of really elegant prose there written by (cough) me. Ask any supplementaries - happy to oblige.
Jimbo, thanks. I knew you would come up trumps. Sorry for the delay with the reply. Been busy, honest!

It's been a while since I have posted but I could not wait to tell you all that the wife and I have booked into the Little Prince, 22nd June for two weeks. I do realise that most of the regulars have probably covered this subject over and over again, so sorry to ask but can you give me any useful info on the Little Prince accomodation. I remember jimbo in the past mentioning the place. Thanks in advance.

Jeff, so pleased you enjoyed it although I am not surprised. Just be a little careful with who you tell about the place as it's a not so well kept secret. Seriously though, I have this year been to Thailand and the surrounding islands, had my short week in Halkadiki and a weekend in Amsterdam but I still feel as though I have not fulfilled my "holiday allowance". This is because the wife and I are still pining for San Stefanos. Speaks volumes!

Where to eat out in San Stefanos? / Re: Restaurant recomendations

MG and Lofty,
I can recommend the Sunset. I think most of his staff are family (not entirely sure) and they do lovely food and quite good house white if I remember rightly. MG, one of the starters the wife and I tried was "bekri". It is either a beef or veal dish. Gorgeous!

Hi Meg,
Regarding my double booking a few years back. We were informed by Thomas Cook literally a week after we had paid the full balance that they could not honour our booking. They put the blame totally on the owners and tried to put us in Arrillas somewhwere. They would/could not help us find somewhere in San Stef for the same dates. I just dont trust Thomas Cook and try to avoid them if possible. Unfortunately both Thomas Cook and Thomsons have the place "sewn" up. Dont fear, I'm sure we were just unlucky. Enjoy your hols and try the Olympia, great stifado.

I hate to put a downer on this thread but my wife and I were victims of the old "double booking" carry on a couple of years ago at the Mythos Apartments. It appears that the owners and Thomas Cook still have'nt solved this. We had previously stayed at these apartments and we can honestly say they are very good. Shame!

Cheers for that Cockneyinhull. We did Olu Deniz last year and it was ok. Different to San Stef. The main street at night is totally bonkers. Loud music blaring and scantily clad girls AND boys dancing on bar counters etc; Through the day was great as we just sipped our cold beers or chilled wine and watched the paragliders doing their stuff. It was rather relaxing. There were very few places to walk which disapointed us.

Hi Kath,
My wife and I stayed at the Mythos Apartments a couple of years ago. They are really nice, clean, very private and peaceful. We loved the five minute stroll into the village, really its not that far out. Thomas Cook (bad people) let us down the following year by cancelling our stay at the Mythos at the last minute. They blamed the owners. So it's probably soured our opinion slightly. But overall we loved the location of the apartments.

Great photos Kathryn. It also brings memories back for me as I first went to San Stef about 24 years ago. I remember doing the paragliding and the bloke who owned the equipment always appeared a little tipsy. Needless to say I missed the raft by a mile! I spent the rest of the holiday observing his "landing the parachute" skills and it kept me highly amused. Not many customers stayed out of the water. Good fun!
