Sevasti Studios and Olympic

We have just returned from the Sevasti, and can tell you that although it is at the back of the village, it is very easy to access, being just along a (fairly) level lane from the main road. A taxi met us and took us and luggage to the lane end, where we were met by Manolis (owner)The apartments have fridges, and Manolis will provide you with six 2 ltr bottles of water for 2 euro. The air con is 3 euro a day, I think, but there is a note in the room with prices. it has free Wi Fi, and the password is provided.
Manolis and Sevasti are lovely,and the apartments are very clean, and of course the view is stunning.
Hope you enjoy your holiday.

When I walk down to walk I often pass dutiful husbands carrying fresh bread and other breakfast necessities up the hill to Sevasti ;)

Ladies, make sure yours is well trained!

One of the great joys on Symi is that a baker selling bread hot out of the oven is never that far away whether staying in Chorio or Yialos and one of the many magical things about Symi is the role reversal and D doing the bread run so willingly - anyway back home to reality today so E had better head for Morrisons :-(

Well I've now booked for the first couple of weeks of July - our usual time - and got a fantastic deal through Olympic; two weeks all included for less than I paid for a week in a cottage in Devon in April. As we had a pretty expensive holiday in the US to celebrate my 'significant' birthday last year and are planning another one to celebrate Mrs H's next year we weren't going to go away this year but the price was so good it would have been rude not to! I'll say hello, Adriana, when I'm being the dutiful husband getting in the bread! Thanks for the info on Olympic and Sevasti everyone.

Got back on Wednesday and I just thought I'd mention that the Sevasti Studios were excellent and although we didn't need to use her services, the Olympic Rep Justine was absolutely charming. The studios were serviced every day, and both Manolis and his wife were very friendly and helpful. We always stay in Chorio and the only downside was that we are used to walking back from Pedi in the afternoon or up the Kali Strata if we go down in the evening, but the extra 75 or so steps after reaching the village put us off so we ended up using the bus most days. The upside is that if you mention 'Sevasti' when you get on the bus, they will take you all the way to the top. I would definitely recommend the studios and will certainly use them again.
