The soft sand stretches like a golden ribbon across the private sun-drenched beach, tucked into a secluded cove. You feel compelled toward the sea. The warmth of the sand filters through your toes and you can anticipate the cool refreshing water. The crystal clear water laps at your toes and you fall into the blanket… Continue reading Mare Dei Suites Ionian Resort
Highly recommended for excellent client services and wonderful food!
Beautiful views and wonderful food. The owner was exceptionally attentive and served us the most delicious dinner. My husband tried the moussaka and said it rated a 8.5 on the Don scale! Wow! I don't think any other Moussaka has ever reached that level. He said it was creamy and tasty at the same time.… Continue reading The Taverna To Pelagos
One of our favorite spots on mainland Greece we happened upon quite by chance a few years ago and come back every time we are in Greece - Nea Anchialios. Just 20 km from Volos it is tucked into a quiet little bay on the Pageaetic Gulf. We have stayed at the Paresos Hotel for… Continue reading Paresos Hotel and Nea Anchialaos
As we drove along the beach way toward our hotel for the night we noticed a lot of young people in full party mode, lots of music and fun happening here! We arrived at the Marathon Beach Hotel fairly late as we docked at Athens at about 7:30 and had an hour and a half… Continue reading Marathon Beach Hotel and Resort
In our week driving the island of Lesvos we saw an amazing array of country side from lush Pine forests to massive olive groves (over 11,000,000 trees), from scrub brush along the storm ravaged shores to the hills covered in wild herbs, from roads too small for a car to goat paths that we constantly… Continue reading Our last day and night on Lesvos
When contemplating dinner on our second night in Agios Isadores [Plomari] we hesitated to go anywhere else but the Akrogiali Hotel and the wonderful home cooked food. But, being dedicated to doing the restaurant reviews I promised, I decided to 'fall on my' butter knife and seek sustenance elsewhere. We decided that a restaurant just… Continue reading The Sunset Restaurant – Plomari
There are places in the world where, as soon as you enter, you know you have come home! As we walked tiredly through the Aegean blue front doors into the Akrogiali Hotel we knew we had found another home. Our host Pearsa and her mom Irenei were there to welcome us with open arms and… Continue reading Akrogiali Hotel and the Aegean Blue Doors
We know it as stuffed eggplant. But, 'little shoes' describes it so much more flamboyantly! The Greeks do have a way with words. It is that divine combination of half an eggplant (aubergine), perfectly seasoned meat (of your choosing), Â covered with a thick layer of ever-so-creamy bechamel sauce and baked to perfection. Pearsa's mom Irenei… Continue reading Papachaika – little shoes
We took the long road...as usual! Driving from Kalloni Bay Resort to Plomari Beach was a bit of a wild ride. The switchbacks were awesome and the tiny towns were interesting with their narrow cobble stone streets and buildings situated in the middle of the road! We got stuck in one town where the street… Continue reading Switchbacks to the Sea
