Anne, to make sure you get a fridge it is best to fax the Exotica before you go. Otherwise it could be a couple of days before one is available.
Might see you there were going on the 1st Aug.

Hi Jan and Steve,

Sounds like its going to be a busy 2 weeks, better make sure I'm prepared! Steve you had better warn the boys! Jan, your kids will love the Exotica,(Ive an 11yr old daughter) basically they all get together like one big gang, the reps are superb, Oh and theres Kostas!
The "Entertainer" generally changes each year but their always good game (they dont have any choice)

See you all in 6 months

Hi Jan, shame but we are there the same weeks as Steve, so we will be returning on the 16th. Check out this site for tel no's http://freespace.virgin.net/zante.island/kalamaki_hotels.htm
I'm not too sure if a couple of numbers have changed, I will check it out later.
Cheers Barrie

Tim, great to hear your returning, not too long too wait now, (got to pay at the end of this month Ouch!) Bad news is not too sure if Les is going to make it this year.
We are flying from Birmingham this time, I think you will manage to get to the bar before me as I think you flights earlier. Mind you that means I'll have a bottle waiting for me!!!

Steve, Tim, hopefully Les, not long to go.
Anybody thats been, is Nickos and Denise still behind the bar and if so any body visiting the Exotica can they remind them I'm on the way back in August. Cheers.

Jan, I dont smoke myself so I'm not sure of the price but I know they are dead cheap.

Steve,
"A donkey from the airport", I wouldnt put it past them. Mind you it will be cheaper than a Taxi. I hear Nickos has moved on and is now engaged and working in Athens, I think his mate George has taken on his job. Both Denise and Zoe are still there for me to annoy though.
Well only 4 weeks to go, Cant wait.

Alan,
My favourate resturants are Paolo's, Escape, Stanis, Tesoro's Mikaelos,Dias, I'll give up there as the list goes on. The only one Ive always avoided is the one on the corner just up from the hotel,(cant even remember what its called). I'm sure you wont find anywhere that isnt child friendly. Paolo's have a small area with swings etc to keep kids entertained, in fact the staff entertain quite well themselves.
Ive been returning to the Exotica for quite a few years now and we have only been on one trip which was to see the turtles, that was the first year. The trips can be quite long days especially with young kids.
We have instead just got a taxi to the beach at Lagana and jumped on a 1hr trip around the bay, a lot cheaper!
Your Kids will love the hotel and the kids reps, you might struggle dragging them away.
If you are going for 2 weeks we might meet you as we are arriving on Friday the 6th Aug.
Have a great holiday.

Hi Bing,
The rooms are basic, but comfortable. Mini fridges and kettles can be hired. We always hire a fridge, one year we couldn't have one for a few days and I really missed it. Last year we had a kettle and didnt use it once. There is a ceiling fan but we always take a 12" desktop fan (£12.99 from B&Q's), helps the kids sleep! I personally get by with plenty of booze! You can hire fans from the shop next door though. If you want to hire a fridge its best to ring or fax in advance as they are limited.
Heres their no's

Look forward to meeting you,

Hi Steve
Our flights a bit later this year as we are flying from brom, we dont land until 2.10pm. I heard Jake has stocked up with water balloons, cant imagine what for!
Look forward to seeing you all
Barrie, Cyn Scott and Sam

Steve,
I have just added 2 photo's which I took from the aeroplane, check out the one which I have zoomed in onto the hotel and check out the football pitch!!!!! Joff must have been taking notes!!

Jeanette,
Give it a few days and they will be ok, Mine did the same.

 ..................SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.....................

A small lump has appeared in Kalimaki, it appears mainly around the Hotel Exotica.

Hi Babis & Spiros, hope you are all well. Missing our time down the Iguana loads . Thanks for your hospitality again, as always the best. Anybody who hasn't yet been down to the Iguana you should get down and meet these guy's. Scott asks if you could say a big hello to Victoria, not sure what thats all about .   Just going to have a look at Sport-Zante now, just found the note you gave me.

All our love
