hi, me and my boyfriend are going to the contessina at the end of Aug for 2 weeks. By the sound of your comments it should be great, but were arguing over how much to take! for two weeks i think we should take around £1500, he only wants to take £1000. how much did you lot take out and was it sufficient? (bear in mind were big eaters and drinkers!lol!)

yay im going tomorrow morning at 8.15!yahoooo!cant wait!

came back from contessina on monday 12th. had a really good holiday there! everything was perfect except for the breakfast. it was really plain and boring and the same thing every morning which really got on your nerves after 2 weeks! never been anywhere so clean and the pool and loungers never got too busy. Eva at reception was exceptioanlly helpful, the others seemed miserable but 99% of greeks are like that.lol. would advise that you dont book trips with your tour operator as you will find it much much cheaper to go with one of the people organising the trips in tsilivi. we booked a turtle island cruise with pelagros and it cost us 15 euros each but if id gone with thomson itd have cost 39 euros each! was a brill day out, boat really nice and we saw a turtle!he kept going round and round the boat and popping his head up every now and again!took some amazing photos from that trip, would highly recommend it.location is spot on, not too busy and not too quiet with really good food at good prices.evening entertainment in hotel could be better but me and my boyfriend enjoyed anyway.we lost 100 euros :-( and managed to last the last 4 days on 25 euros!couldnt believe it!lol.all in all the hotel is really worth the money and there arent many places in greece better than tsilivi in my opinion.everything was just right!including the weather! (hadnt rained since april!!!)contessina has a website www.contessina-hotel.gr if you wanna look. hope anyone else going enjoys as much as we did, bon voyage!

oops sorry its www.contessinahotel.gr
