Advantages: Great view, friendly owners and plenty of sun beds! Disadvantages: Steep hill.
Last year I went to the sunny island of Kos. This fairly large island has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world in my opinion. Even though I don't like sand I do love to watch the sea so sitting by a taverna while the sun sets on the horizon was lovely. Also the beaches weren't too crowded either!
The Hotel
I went to Kos with my family including my mam's parents. We stayed in HermesHotel in Kefalos which is built into a hill. It isn't a suitable place to take people with walking disabilities. Lots of people complained because of the hill but I found it fairly easy to walk up and down each night after a couple of games of The Alphabet Game (don't ask? my mam's idea). The owners of the hotel were very friendly and even told us our Greek names. We were all amused by our Greek names because they basically stayed the same ...
Advantages: luxurious, inside town centre, myconian/aegean views, excelent service, friendly stuff Disadvantages: lots of rooms on the back with no views and too much traffic noise
Although I've never stayed as a customer in Belvedere, I can easily give a review for this hotel as it's been lots of times that i visited friends who were staying there (and spent a couple of nights as a guest until I found a room for myself).
As you can see from my other reviews, for the past 14 years, i 've spent most of my holidays on mykonos island, I sometimes visit the island more than twice a year, so i think i can have a clear opinion about the most of its well known bussinesses.
Hotel Belvedere is a very well known bussiness in Mykonos. Most of the times you can meet celebrities staying there, as it offers stylish luxury and it is situated inside the town centre, in a small walking distance from the high standard bars clubs and restaurants.
It offers everything you could expect from a hotel in its category, minibar ...
Advantages: Variety! Beaches, food, people - Greece! Disadvantages: Very hot. Remembering HOW to deal with loo paper
After experiencing another UK Summer, I was inspired to head for Mykonos! I was somewhat intimidated since Mykonos has a reputation for being a young person's place.
I flew EasyJet from Luton UK airport (my favourite airport) to Athens. It is a no-frills airline but even parking is simple (you can book it at the same time as you do your flight) and the airport is easy to get into and back out of! Then I transfered to Olympic for the flight to Mykonos. You can also take a ferry, instead, but it is about 5 or 6 hours on the ferry, versus less than an hour to fly there. And I wanted to hit the beach!
A friend's daughter was working at a nearby resort, so she found me a place to stay and it was unique! It was a traditional Greek cube style cottage, which had been carved into a hillside, so the interior had not only a stone floor ...
