Thanks for replying. The holday info says Martsa apts., but I think you may be right it's the Martisa hence the reason I can't find out anything about them. We changed our hol from Halkidiki to Kos Thomsons didn't have a picture in the brochure as they stated they were new apts? It seems they just didn't include them in their brochure I am now wondering why. You seem to have enjoyed them and had a good time in Kefalos, I hope I do the same.

Checked web site thanks for your help. Aprts look inviting, dissapointed they don't have their own pool  though. I have a 12 yr old daughter who lives in the pool on hols. Is the Manolis close by?

Hi Nick

 

Thanks for all you feedback. I am really looking forward to it now

Hello again Nick

 

I will certainly be visiting all the places you have recommended. Can't wait to go now. I will let you know how I get on when I get back on the 18th August. Only seven sleeps to go, I see the aprt raiting has gone down to 3/10,  am sure they will be fine.

Yes the cats are still there we made the mistake of giving them milk and ended up with three of them in our apatrment No 8. Kefalos was very quiet still, some of the restaurants had no-one in them. We like it quiet too. We walked to the harbour a few times where we met our rep Amanda at Sydneys bar watched a live band and Tubby Brown, he was crap, the band was good.We visited a few of the other bars at the harbour but preferred going to the ones nearer Martisa aparts.The walk back was a bit of a struggle after half  a caraft of wine and a few Amstels. We flew from Glasgow with My Travel they were also excellent. I haven't stopped raving about my holiday since I got back. We will try to return next August as we loved it so much. I will never go back to mainland Spain after visiting Kos. I give the whole holiday 10/10.

Hi Nick

 

No I haven't been to Skiathos, I have been to Sidari in Corfu. I didn't like it very much I thought it was quite dirty. We had to walk up a dirt track with torches to reach our apartment everynight.

We went to Captain John's a couple of times too and enjoyed a  lovely cheap meal. We didn't go to the Chinese as we heard a lot of bad reports on it was it nice? We tried to book Martisa for May next year, the travel agent couldn't find it anywhere. She states it may have been withdrawn. We did manage to book three three bedroom apartment at the manolis.Six of us are going this time there will only be two persons in each room. We got the extra bed for a £1.00 supplement. We could always use the extra bed to store our clothes with there being no drawers.

We didn't go on the horse and cart as my daughter felt so sorry for the horse having to go up and down that same road in the blistering heat.

We went into Kardamena for the day as my husband supports our local team, Hearts, No bars were showing the match in Kefalos as Chelsea was playing at the same time. The bar has to have access to Santanta to be able to show Scottish football abroad. Are you booking Skiathos for next years annual holiday?

Hi nick

 

Yes Hearts won 4-0 worth the trip so says my husband. I am awfully glad you mentioned Bachlava as I could never remember the name I kept on calling it Balaclava. I agree with you about Kardamena they were all very young there. Not that I am old ( in my opinion).I will give the chinese a go when I return in May or August.

I have a few weekends booked also. Blackpool September weekend with the family and father in law, Amsterdam in October (three couples) and Blackpool again at the end of October with another 11 girls. we go every year for a girlie weekend, we call ourselves the Scottish Slappers but we are all nice of course?

I hope you have a good weekend away it sounds very good.
