Hi, im going there for 2 weeks I was wondering if there was lots of activities/ things to do near by was it a big beach, lots of shops, restraunts.

Hi thanks for watching. There are plenty of small shops, bars and restaurants on Kalamaki main road which is only a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The beach is large but there was a lot of seaweed when we were there in May, this may have been cleaned up by now. As for activities I’m not too sure as it was a relaxing week for me so didn’t really get up to much but I’m sure a quick Google might be of more help.

There is a taverna just outside the hotel called Escape Taverna, we personally never ate there but heard good reviews from other people. For Greek food I can recommend Zakanthi restaurant, Artigiano, Greek Stories and Ambrosia, really good Greek food and very friendly staff. If it’s a steak your after the Bullhorn Steak House was fantastic, not cheap but the food was very good. Theres a good British pub called the Rose & Crown, that do good beer and cocktails and have tv screens showing the football, sports etc etc. They also have a loyalty card that gets stamped and after you purchase 6 drinks (doesn’t have to be all on the same night!) you’ll get your next drink free. They also do food. There’s plenty of other places to eat and drink but these were the ones I mostly ate at and are only a 5-10 minute walk from the hotel.

Hi, yeah I felt the same as you regarding the Max 8 and the reports about safety but the flight itself was absolutely fine. I’ve flown on them a couple of times now and have had no issues whatsoever.I think Boeing has addressed the issues around the Max 8 and I wouldn’t hesitate to fly on one again. At the end of the day no matter what type of aircraft your on there’s always that element that something could go wrong but it’s still the safest way to travel.

Hi great video and can vouch its a smashing cruise ship. Just a word of warning, the day before we were due to dock to come home the ship ran out of tonic water at the pool bar. But the barman poured a glass of tonic from a can, apologising that none on draught. Okay no probs but the charge on my credit card was £3.....but my final invoice from the ship did not show this........be aware

I did the flight to connect with Marella Discovery cruise ship on 25th January . I thought the service was excellent . The crew were happy and could not do enough for you . They served several rounds of drinks , the meal was fine although there was no choice . I thought the in flight entertainment was excellent . Far better than my last flight on BA . So I was impressed . On the way back the flight was delayed two hours which meant that the Birmingham based crew could not get home in time , I think they were relatively grumpy because of that , but service was OK and it was an overnight flight so people tended to dose off . Only thing I’d say is too few toilets for the number of passengers with some quite large queues forming and heaven forbid if pragmatically you try to use the premium economy ones!
@kennykirkwood
@kennykirkwood 4 ай бұрын
Yeah have to agree about the lack of toilets, had the very same situation on both outward and return flights. Only other very minor gripe that my partner had was with her meal, being vegetarian her meal was served much earlier than the rest of the cabin, so by the time the rest of the cabin was served and were offered a choice of wine she had long finished her meal which she enjoyed. Maybe should’ve offered her a choice of wine when she received hers. Like I said only a minor gripe and we couldn’t fault the staff on both flights.

Congratulations! We usually go to smaller more family run hotels in Greece but decided to do something a bit more upmarket. The room is lovely and well kept and having the bonus of walking out to you own bit of pool is great. The food is nice but can get a wee bit samey if you’re there for longer than a week but is nice none the less. The surrounding area is absolutely stunning. In all we probably wouldn’t return but that’s not to say that it we didn’t enjoy it’s just that we prefer the smaller family run hotels. Again congratulations and I hope you have a great time.

Nice video. Definitely recommend premium on the Dreamliner next time you go..priority check in, first on, first off, bags off first, exec lounge at the airport, bigger seats, more legroom, more width space, complimentary drinks, gifts...allsorts. Plus what is supposed to be your own toilet in the forward cabin but they never seem to enforce this as they should. Can be pricey...but worth it for long haul.

Don’t get me wrong, I do understand them but it’s like a necessary evil to me. Those way to modern information boards on walls or in corners. To me it’s such a shame. Why not leave the building as it was. To use your imagination combined with a book guide which could lead you to the castle perhaps. I totally understand the fire extinguishers in some corners.
