Tsilivi Beach Hotel - (Accommodation in Tsilivi)

Lisa E

I'm supposed to be staying in this Hotel from Thursday 7th June 2001, and I am now quite worried about the building work, JMC and Lunn Polly told me the work had been completed on 18th May and it now appears they weren't telling the truth...can someone please confirm that it has definately been finished and what it looks like? Thanks very much...ps. also what is the beach like by the Hotel?

Magdalenas Bar - (Bars in Tsilivi)

We came home from Tsilivi on 21st July and I miss my cocktail 'Mr Sex' like mad, very potent and Denis is such a whizz at making his specials, one of which caused my hubby to continually fall over all the way back to the hotel...Denis is a good laugh along with everyone else who works there...definately the best bar in Tsilivi...ps. watch out or you may get wet when you walk past and don't stop for a drink.

The Cats Whiskers - (Restaurants in Tsilivi)

Lisa E  (03 July 2001)         

Probably the worst restaurant in Tsilivi, food below par, food not reasonable compared to the other Restaurants, and service poor, we had to ask four times for the bill and was then given the wrong one...give it a miss

Blue Caves and Shipwreck Cruise - (Zante Excursions)

Lisa E           

We booked our trip in Tsilivi with a local tour agent - do not book with reps, double the price - we paid 5,000 each which is equivalent to £10 each. We went on the Mandelena which was the fastest and what we thought the nicest boat. We stopped at the shipwreck which although is rusty (and I don't recommend climbing on it) the location is quite a site, to lie on the beach and look up was amazing, water is cold but really nice. We then made a swim stop at another cove and we were the only boat there, and another swim stop where you could only jump off as the boat didn't dock at a beach - both of these swim stops the water is warmer. Both the Blue caves and the Monk Seal caves were amazing and the boat went in as far as it could for it's size. Although it's a long day it was very pleasant, got a bit boring at times but the swim stops and view was worth it, best spent money of the whole holiday (that and having portrait done in Tsilivi by Tony). Bit of advice, take your own food and if you have a fridge freeze 2 bottles of water the night before and take these with you, as they melt you will be able to drink cold water all day. ps. I am usually very sea sick but the water was so calm I didn't feel a thing but be prepared in the night to feel a bit strange as you can feel like you are moving when sitting or standing.
