Where to stay / Ifigenia Apartments?

« on: February 21, 2006, 05:24:14 AM »

Hi

We have never stay at Ifigenia, but we have stayed to the place right next door Oasis. I would highly recommend it. We have been going there for the last 8 years. They have an apartment with 2 rooms very spacious. We stay with our 2 children who are now 13 and 15. They also have a lovely swimming pool at Oasis, which the children will love. Nikos and Maria who own Oasis are very friendly and helpful. They also  have a bar and serve food.

Where ever you stay I am sure you and your family will have a lovely time, we are back at Oasis in October!

Martin,

I do not know Cheryl's surname, but I may be able to find out. My mother in law kept in contact with Cheryl when she moved back to the England (Oxford area).

If I can find out more information I will let you know.

Well Cherly has not been around for some time now, decided to move back to England. unfortunately for Nikos, Maria has also decided that life in Crete is not for her, so Nikos is alone again but the business still goes on, thankfully for us, because we go back each year.  We have already booked for 3 weeks next year staying with Nikos at the Oasis. this will be 7th year in a row, so that is that must say something for Nikos, Oasis and of course Plakias.

Holiday Companies / Caravel

« on: June 15, 2004, 03:51:14 AM »

Hi Allan,

We have just returned from Crete, and we used Caravel, they were great. Originally requested to hire an Atos, but they arrived with a brand new Panda, very nice little cars, in excellent condition.  They meet us at the airport, and they were very helpful. The car cost 300 euros for 2 weeks. I would use them again.

Hope you have a nice holiday.

Thanks for the reminder about the photos, can remember seeing them before, but it is still nice to view them again and again and again.  We have loads and loads of photo albums of great holidays in Plakias. Our friends have never been before so it was a good excuse to get them out again, and reminisce over a few glasses of wine.  Well we only have 25 days to go!!! and counting every second until we return

Hi All,

We have always stayed at Oasis, in the lovely appartment there.  Just a little out of town, but it keeps us fit walking up and down the hill.  We dont feel too bad, as we know that whatever we eat will be burned off walking back.

We booked our flights through Airborne travel, can you believe that we paid £139 each, that included accomodation for 14 nights (bargin). We are not staying at the accomodation in Malia, we are using it as a flight only, and returning to lovely Plakias, with some friends, who are bored with us going on about how we love the place. They decided that they wanted to see what we are always raving on about. Anyway only got to wait until the 25 May ...... . May be we will bump into some of you that are going to be out there at the same time.

Bye for now, hope you all have lovely holidays this year.      

Regards Sarah

We have stayed at the Oasis, on at least 8 occassions- it is lovely, the hosts Nikos and Maria are very accommodating, nothing is too much trouble- ever.

We always have the ground appartment, which does have a fridge, so does the 1st floor apartment. The rooms do not have fridges, but they can be hired.

We have done the walk up the hill  lots of times, it is quite nice, at least it gives you a chance to walk of all thoes extra calories, that we all put on while we are on our regular stay.


We have stayed in Plakias at the latter end of October, and we had lovely weather, but we all know how it can change from day to day, but I would certainly go back again in October.

We are sure that you will find Oasis and Plakias both lovely.

If you have any further questions about the Oasis, you could always e-mail Maria, the e-mail can be found on the interkriti website, under accomodation.

Plakias / Just returned from Plakias

« on: June 16, 2003, 03:18:32 PM »

Hi All,

Just wanted to let you know that  we will be returning to Plakias tomorrow and we cant wait!!!!  I just hope the weather holds out, but even if it doesn't, nothing will dampen our sprits.  We have always have a FAB time the many times that we have been to Plakias, and long may it continue.  I have never meet John, but who knows if I am down the town in the evening I will be sure to say Hi.

The taverna in Mythios sounds great, I think we will have try it out!

We have made  friends in Plakias,  namely Costa, Maria, Billy, Doug, Jeannie & Stamati, to name a few, so we will be doing the rounds to catch up with them. It seems like ages ago that we were there (September 2002) we are already looking to book our next trip even before we get back.

Hope any one that is having a holiday soon , has a great time.

Take care
Sarah

Plakias / First time visitor

« on: March 25, 2003, 02:06:32 AM »

Hi All

I just wanted to add a note about flights, we usually use flightline via the web. Last year we noticed that they reduce their flight close to the departure date, so this year, we have decided to book our accomodation and book the flight  as close to that date as we can.

We paid about £150 last year, and noticed that they then reduced the flights to as low as £59! for 14 days.  We have been keeping an eye on them so far this year, and they have reduced them  already for April. Although looking at other destinations, we have noticed that the lowest prices seem to be between £60-£70, but that will still be a big reduction.  

You have to be brave and hope that you can get the date that you want.

Regard

Sarah

We are aiming for 10th June- all being well.
