| 8th May 2010 - We were intending to go on holiday to Tunisia, but the volcano had other ideas, and we eventually managed to re-book a weeks holiday in Corfu. This was our first visit to this Greek island and had hesitation, especially as we read some comments by other people on this holiday resort. However, we stopped at Tzevenous hotel/apartments (family run business) which had a swimming pool, outdoor bar etc. We were in one of the self catering apartments. We found this clean and tidy with everything needed for 2 people. It was kept clean and tidy by the cleaning staff. There were facilities within Tzevenous to purchase breakfast, lunch or snacks and evening meals if you so chose. In the 'town' just five minutes walk away, there was a long promenade following the coast in an idyllic setting. There are many bars/restaurants to cater for all different choices. For us, the best was 'The Balcony Restaurant' which overlooks the sea, offering excellent Greek Cuisine as well as English food. It provided a friendly and welcoming atmosphere and excellent value for money. The bus service reflects typical Greek way of life - laid back and it will arrive (probably) in due course. We thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay at this quiet time in the year and would be happy to return to the same place, apartments, restaurant etc. | |

 If you are looking for a completely relaxing holiday this is paradise. We came across this resort by accident and completly loved it , go back every year .Difficcult to get out and about without your own transport, but a fantastic beach, great food and bars and friendly people. Not much Greek culture architecturally but wonderful Greek food and there are plenty of places to visit close by. Get to Lake Korisson if you can. As previously mentioned if you want a wild holiday then it's not for you. | |

ST Georges South is a purpose built holiday resort, probably put up in the 80's to support the holiday traffic. This has been extended to with newer buildings only a few years old. Very isolated so if you want to get out and about to see Corfu you certainly need a car. A bus into the resort in the morning takes you to Corfu Town but needless to say this is not at all reliable and given the distance will cost you an arm and a leg in taxi fares. The resort is just one street running alongside of the beach with bars, restaurants etc scattered along the road. The area is very tatty and certainly could do with the infrastructure like pavements repairing and some TLC on some of the make shift buildings. There is not much to do but if you like this sort of holiday then will definately appeal. There is quite a nice beach at one end of the resort which can get crowded during the height of the summer months. To summarise - small resort needing a facelift catering for BRITS ABROAD !!! No culture in fact you will see why the resort is not included in the TOUR OF THE ISLAND. | |

Varied resort can be busy at times and sleepy at others. Lots of restaurants and bars which should cater for all tastes. Some showing live football, karaoke nights, quizzes, Elvis, Michael Jackson and Ozzy Ozbourne tribute acts, fire eaters, belly dancers. Others are quieter and offer a more relaxed and perhaps more sophisticated evening, depends what you want. Noticed that all the restaurants seem to be child and family friendly, some offering familiar food that kids will eat without fuss. The beach is long and sandy, lots of watersports such as parasailing, donut rides, jetskiing, pedalos, motor boat hire. Sunbed and umbrella hire at 6 euros per day for 2 beds. Various boat trips available, didn't try them but seemed to be a fair choice. Drawback is only one bus per day out of the town, so if you want to get out and about you will need to think about hiring a car, quad bike, motor bike, scooter; loads of people seem to. | |

| Can anyone tell me if there are good walking areas around St George South? On the map there would appear to be hills close by which would suit my husband as he is an avid walker! | |

My family have been going to st.george now for the past 10yrs give or take missing a couple of yrs, we love the resort and the people and would reccomend it to anyone. It is the sort of place that would suit people from ALL walks of life.We are hoping to go there in september this year. Does anybody who has been there this year know if Spiros still has TRAXX bar or not? | ||||||||||||||||

| I have just come back from a week at the Likithos apartments and wish I'd booked for longer. From the first moment you walk in you can just sense the peace and quiet of the place which was superb. All of the staff at the complex could not have been better including Alex (try and beat him at pool) and Despina who was always there to help with anything. Great Place and everything was how it should be - clean, tidy and helpful staff!!! | ||||||||||||||||

| St George has a wonderful long beach with plenty of bars an tavernas to choose from. We hired a bike from a chap place called George's and we cruised around most of the island on the bike, it was wonderful to hit the road and go where you like, we visited some of the old vilages and monuments. we went to a Greek night at the Golden Sands hotel it was brilliant fun ((well worth the visit)). We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and will retun to St George one day. | ||||||||||||||||
