Re: Info Needed - 16 years ago
Hi Sakis Thanks you for that information and about the sweets we will avoid them.

Re: Hanioti - 17 years ago
Hiya We are staying at the Angelo Apatments, Hanioti and we go on the 7th June for 2 weeks, I am so excited I was recommended to go to Hanioti by a friend and looking at all the photographs it looks fantastic I keep hearing about this 24 hour bar on the beach that I can't wait to find. There are 4 of us going, 2 couples (between ages 25-30) so we will have great fun!!! I love going to placesby Sarah L - Halkidiki
Re: Hanioti - 17 years ago
Hi Sian Thanks for that, I would much prefer to get the car locally you get to see the car before you hire it, I feel better now I know there's a company in the resort itself. As far as the quad's go we will just have to wait and see, would be fun but I guess they won't want that kind of thing going on in Hanioti they want to keep the traditional feel of the the place which make the resorby Sarah L - Halkidiki
Re: Hanioti - 17 years ago
Hiya Does anyone know if you can hire Quad bikes in Hanioti? I know it's the new craze on the islands and hanioti is still very traditional so it may not have reached the mainland yet!!!! Oh and does anyone know of any good, reasonably cheap car hire places in hanioti or near by. I want a car for about a week in the middle of my holiday to venture out and about, but if you do it beforeby Sarah L - Halkidiki
Re: Website Update - 17 years ago
Hi Nic As always your photographs are stunning, I was told that Halkidiki was very green but I never expected it to be so green, the scenery is beautiful. We are staying in Hanioti so if youcould give us some rough directions to the beach at Kavourotripes that would be great. Take care and keep taking those fantastic pictures Sarah xby Sarah L - Halkidiki
