My first time in SS :))) It was a paradise!
« on: July 11, 2013, 11:19:19 PM »
Hi Everyone!
I've just returned from SS and I'm so enchanted!

When:
From 25th of June to 9th of July: first week was windy and it was cool, the other one was humid but we don't mind it; the weather waz amazing but there was one storm

Where:
In Mikelis Studios behind Tereza Hotel - an owner lady was amazing, she was kind and was always smiling, she cleaned every day, and she made for us home sweets.  Tereaza has awesome pool, great views, and the cheapest drinks :)

Who:
me (little blondie with a short hair), my husband (higher of a head, always with a Adidas case for his tablet) and our three years old son (always smiling blond boy, almost always in a blue buggy)

On the beach:
we liked the place where Thomas was renting a boats; we didn't rent parasols; we had our beach green tent which was very characteristic  - just behind all parasols on the way to nudist :)

Places that we visited:
- Yannis near San Stefanos Supermarket - 12 times - the best pita gyros,
- 2 Asteria (2 Stars) - 7 times: stifado, sofrito, pastitsada, kokkinisto, stamna, mix grill, mix sea food, fakitas - the best tavern for us; great hospitality and family atmosphere; the owner was so kind and the waiter was very funny, we had may chitchats :) They had many toys so our child was many thing to do there :) We olso got a home-made wine when we were last time there. I'll miss them!
- Mantos - 3 Times - we went there too late and we regret it; it's a really Greek tavern, the food was awesome and the Greek waiter and the British waiter were so friendly. Best sea food, best service
- Little Prince - once; kokinosto and garlic mussels; nice meals but we didn't find a Greek vibe so we did't come back; the dances weren't as noce as at Zorbas
- Zorbas - once; kokkinisto and spaghetti with prawns and mussels; tasty but little portions, waiters made many mistakes and we had to wait for every single thing too long, nice playground for children
- Tasty Corner - once, pita gyros, not so tasty
- Mediteraneo - once, pastitsada and stifado; nice but Asteria/ Mantos were better; nice playground for children
- Delicious - once - pita gyros, not so delicious as in Yannis, so it was only once time
- Summer Dreams - nice Tiramisu and Nescafe

and Tereza every day for Frape, club sandwich and chips (my son :)


Souvenirs:
2 litre of Koumkwat  liqueur
1 litle od Olive Oil
seasoning: stifado, sofrito, pastitsada, bbq
a box for butter
a box for bread
a magnetic card with SS view
nuts
a Corfu T-shirt
a wooden figure od two people and a child :)
1 bottle of Mythos and at the airport 6 cans


Favourite drinks, all in Tereza:
Frappe
Frappe with Bailay's
Mohito :))


The cheapest supermarket: San Stefanos, but for special things: Aspa. Both are run by nice people.

We had great time and we hope to come back next year. It is true that there were not many "young" people but for us it was an advantage. We didn't go to Condor or other places like that because we don't like that sort of  entertainment (like caraoke etc.) but I think that in SS there is sometnihg special for everyone. Have a great time!

Jassas !!!
