We have been staying at Lakka for the past three years and strongly recommend the following Studios/Apartments. They are the best I've stayed in Lakka for views, comfort, cleanliness and hospitality.
The views from each room and swimming pool are amazing.

Are you the Bill with a wife whose name beging with K and a son beginning with E?
If so I am the lady(???)with 2 sticks on her own from Aug last year. Also want to book, have texted Nancy but no answer, and email addy not recognised. Have you her contact details?
I don't know if there is a pm facility on this forum but if there is could you let me have details to contact her.
As a matter of interest Direct Line are advertising Amfitriti but will not book for a single traveller, even with supplements.

Hmmmmm I(at)ve also noticed Terezas isn't in this years Olympic brochure. I wonder if they are going to eventually do the same or is it because Terezas is a popular one that doesn't need to be put on the brochure now? Please tell me they haven't dropped it as we have booked to go there this year in September......

The travel companies are dropping a lot of the smaller islands totally.
It is now impossible to get to Andros, for instance, on a package tour.
They are finding it impossible to fill all the properties, so if they do go to these smaller places there is a limited choice of accommodation.
I am afraid that the majority of tourists want to go to lively places and don't want a further journey on a ferry etc, after the flight. We that like peace and quiet are actually being penalised.
It is all about making money so the majority rather than the minority are being catered for.

Hi all
Why not go independent. You do not have to go with the tour ops. Give our Greek friends the business. I have not been with a company for many years and have always done well. We now have our own little place on Corfu and know that they work really hard for business.
It is easier than you think, just get a flight and book your hotel.! Have fun.
Jane

Apologies for not replying to you earlier......been busy over Easter. You are right! I am indeed Bill with the wife and son. I hope you are well? If you haven't got hold of Nancy let me know I have mobile and a personal email for her. Also you can find Nancy on facebook if you have an account. I will try to private message you some contact details for me.
Sadly it looks like we aren't going this year as I can't make the figures add up (exchange rates etc). Penalties of flying from provincial airports means I am looking at around £850 for flights alone at the moment.
I have a copy of the hydrofoil schedule that emmafletch kindly let me have if you need it.
cheers,
Bill
