    Adio Agios Stefanos. Final Reflections

    ByStephanie Banks 19 September 202419 September 2024

    When I arrived at Agios Stefanos I wasn’t sure what to expect. A small tourist resort for sure, beautiful views yes. A lovely beach – definitely. I had chosen this little corner of Corfu, to use as a jumping-off point to visit the Diapontians. Thanks to Zeus and his tantrums, those trips didn’t happen but…

    Canal D’Amour-or-or. Ratadadadada!

    ByStephanie Banks 17 September 202417 September 2024

    Most of my family have had a holiday in Sidari at some point or another. That alone was probably enough to make me decide not to stay there! I’m not being disparaging about the place (or my family), but I know that Sidari in the main, is a manufactured tourist resort. It is served by…

    An Evening in Kassiopi

    ByStephanie Banks 16 September 202417 September 2024

    One of the advantages of staying in Agios Stefanos is having expert advice on hand at San Stefano Travel. Not only are they a mine of useful information (and very nice ladies), but they also organise regular tours. This is perfect for people like me who prefer not to drive in Greece. Plus, I’m on…

    Operation Resignation and a Walk to Arillas

    ByStephanie Banks 15 September 202415 September 2024

    The evening of the day after the storm I wandered down into the village to seek out somewhere to eat. Every night so far I’ve eaten at Spiros and Maria’s next door to Sun Sea View and haven’t been disappointed. However, I need to spread my horizons and see what else is on offer. I…

    50 Shades of Weather – Agios Stefanos Avliotes!

    ByStephanie Banks 13 September 202413 September 2024

    My first day in Agi Stef (BTW this is not my husband’s nickname for me!) was balmy. After the storms the day before I arrived, the atmosphere was humid – according to the weather app more than 70%. Even at 9 o’clock in the morning it’s very warm with a bright sky. Whilst sizing up…

    Arrival on Corfu: Agios Stefanos Avliotes

    ByStephanie Banks 12 September 202428 November 2025

    Well, I nearly didn’t make it to Corfu. I had booked a one-way flight a week before travelling. Within days of doing this I came down with a virus – you know – the one that affects your stomach. No matter how much I was looking forward to this trip I wasn’t going to risk…
