Hi All! Off to Skiathos on 6 June - v excited. Staying in the Skiathos Palace - which concerns me a bit as I've read a lot of mixed reviews. Can anyone calm my nerves? Also - any hints/tips/info greatly appreciated - desperate for this holiday!  _________________ Shell |

plz relax..........
the palace is our oldest hotel and once considered a 5 star.
after many face lifts id consider it okay, but who stays in the room at summer other to sleep and take a shower?
the hotel is located uphill and some of the rooms got spectacular views, but the main story is that 6th of june aint the crazy times and kukunaries beach (among the 10 best of the world) still not very busy.
you can get to the beach from the hotel in 5 min walk, and in kukunaries there are many nice restaurants, and bars.
the bus stop is near by for visiting town and other beaches , and i would recoment the rental of a power boat from kukunaries beach for a trip to the north beaches. |

Very true -
Will miss you and Mrs AF being there this time.
See you on the flight Shell - there's me MrJet & Everton Bri - you can see what we look like on the photo forum so feel free so say hi and jump out on us if you spot us at the airport.
Great advert for Olympic and Monarch last night watching Sky seeing United returning home with the Champions League Trophy.  _________________ you heard it here first - BOJAN! |

The "Rogues Gallery" is full of pictures of members. You can visit by clicking this link. Suejet is famous for spotting other board members and pouncing on them, although I believe we were only spotted once - and that was the day after a boozy evening with many board members at Alexandros taverna last September.
In fact, my last picture in the Rogues Gallery is from that very same evening at Alexandros taverna... _________________ Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream. |
