on arrival we were met by two lovely ladies who insisted they carry our bags. when we were showed to our room i said to my other half " are we in the wrong hotel?" only because the room was huge, clean, had adequate kitchen facilities, anyway who wants to cook on holiday? after speaking with our rep yhe following morning, she told us that the hotel had undergone massive renovation, well i have to say after reading some of the comments on here i was extremely worried and even thought about changing hotels but there was absolutely nothing to worry about.

christina and mama were great with us and our 6 year old daughter, and at the end of the day you are in there country so a little bit of greek doesnt go a miss.

as for the music at the bar, it wasnt that loud and was off by 11.00 most nights.

tsilivi itself was beautiful, the beach was great and our daughter loved it !!

if anyone is gonna be staying in tsilivi whatever you do dont miss out on the two brothers cocktail bar, you cant miss it coz everytime we walked by he would squeeze his hooter and all the staff would shout something over to us in greek !! dread to think what it was, lol.

we went on both boat trips, first on the turtle one but make sure you book with the ones that dont hassel the turtlesor dock on turtle island as it is strictly forbiden. the next day we took and old wooden pirate looking ship to do the caves and shipwreck beach, we booked half day from 9.00 till 3.00 as we thought our daughter would get bored, but she loved it !book with one of the tour operaters in town as we got a great deal 40.00 euros for the three of us for both trips including coach transfers !!

the weather was fantastic mid to high 20's all days, got a great tan, all in all a great holiday, we are just looking online at the moment to book to go back this coming may, cant wait, blue lagoon cocktail here i come !!!!

we booked the blue caves and shipwreck beach with dionysis tours in town, got a great deal 20 euros for the three of us including coach transfers !! the boat was great and food and drink was very reasonable, coffee was great.

take some travel pills with you though as quite a few people were sick, a few of them got wind that i had kwells travel pills and a queue quickly arose !!

yes the water is as blue as they say, it really is breathtaking. dont forget your camera. we stopped off at a secluded beach later on, only accessable by boat and had a lengthy swim stop, there were some rocks and i took the plunge and dived off, i was extremely proud of myself, lol. !!!!

all in all a great day out, we are going back this may and cant wait, blue lagoon cocktail from the two brothers cocktail bar............. im on my way !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

give the place a break ! we were there last may with our daughter and we were very surprised on arrival, we thought we were in the wrong place. christinas had just had massive renovation and it really showed. i admit it was basic but our apartment was spotless, and very spacious, kitchen utensils were basic but who cares ? if you wanna stand there and cook a meal then thats up to you, i thought you went on holiday to get away from all that ?? as for mice and cockroaches we didnt see any, we saw loads in gran canaria . yeh its not a 5 star hotel so if thats what people want then they should book a clearly stated top rated hotel. all in all we would definately go back to christinas coz at the end of the day if you want a cheap break then well worth it .
