Paleokastritsa Studios - (Accommodation in Paleokastritsa)

Penny and steve H           

We arrived late afternoon monday 15th September 2003, we were very impressed with our apartment which was bright and clean and had a large private balcony with a sea view. There was a very steep driveway down to the site but there were also steps to use. The pool was a good size and the pool bar was clean and served drinks and snacks. There were lots of sunbeds and always some spare. It was our second choice as our first choice in the brochure said there could be some noise from the bar and we wanted a peaceful holiday. If there was a five star guide for basic it would come top of the list. Unfortunately there was one BIG downfall!!! on the other side of the road was "Jimmy's Bar" which played very loud music from 11pm until it decided to close, the worst night I think it was 4am. So if you take a good set of ear plugs or you are a very heavy sleeper go for it.

Boat trip and beach BBQ - (Corfu Excursions)

Penny and steve H           

We booked ours through Michalas travel in Paleokastritsa for 25 euros. We really enjoyed it, our first stop was Paradise Beach and we had a swim and a lie in the sun. After about an hour the boat came back and took us on a trip along the coast and then stopped by some caves where we jumped off the boat and were able to swim into the caves, the water was about 8 metres deep and very clear. My husband was in deep shock that I did this swim as I always chicken out and I am not very keen on swimming in the sea but what the hell it was great. After that we went back to the same beach and had the BBQ. The BBQ was chicken, bread, melon and some salad and the drink ran freely. Well worth it.

Spiros Taverna - (Restaurants in Paleokastritsa)

I am a vegetarian and there was plenty that I could eat. My husbands favourite was the BBQ well worth the mixed one. On average it cost us about 20 euros and this included wine, oh and the puddings are to die for.

September - (Best Time to Visit)

Penny and steve H           

I think it is pure luck, we went for one week on 15th September and it was hot and getting hotter by the end of the week even though they had alot of rain the week before. The nights were cooler. One big problem WASPS they were everywhere. Also suffered from mossie bites.

Kosmar - (Tour Operators on Corfu)

Penny and steve H           

The flights were with Excel airways and left on time and even got us back early. The accommadation was good but the brochure did not show it off well. Our rep was fine and chatty but the tours were expensive and to be honest alot cheaper to buy down the road for the same trip. Reps have 25% commission so thats why.
