Re: 6 more sleeps!! - 13 years ago
I've got 13 more sleeps. POLYCHRONO here we come! To watch the World cup. Even going to bring my vuvuzela trumpet.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Ammos studios Polychrono - 13 years ago
Thanks for the info. What about air conditioning. We have been to Polychrono about 10 times now, but trying Ammos for the first time. Usually go to Fanis apartments on the front, but they have gone Independent. Which worked out to be too expensive. Really looking forward to going. Not heard a bad review.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Ammos studios Polychrono - 13 years ago
Yes thanks. We went searching for it last year, when we knew Fanis was going independent. Facebooked Saki the other day. They open on 1st June, and they say they are really busy. Doubt there will be many English staying?by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Ammos studios Polychrono - 13 years ago
Does any one know how much the air conditioning is. Think we will need it.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: 6 weeks and counting!! - 13 years ago
7 weeks for us. Also stopping at Ammos Studios. Would love to get feedback. I'm hoping the volcano behaves until we arrive. It can do what it wants after that. I'm sure we won't be too disappointed if we are stuck in Polychrono.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Ammos studios Polychrono - 13 years ago
I think we will be there the same time. I think we overlap a week. We arrive on 28th for 2 weeks.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Ammos studios Polychrono - 13 years ago
We will be going to Ammos Studios for the 1st time in June. We usually go to Fanis apartments, but due to several reasons have opted to go to Ammos. Could anyone give upto date info on them. We will be going when the World cup is on. Do they have sky TV, what are the apartments like. Is the hill as bad as people make out.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki

To buy or rent - 14 years ago
We have been going to Polychrono for a number of years now, and are thinking of moving out here. What are the benefits to buying or renting. My husband is a builder and I am a nurse. We are fed up of England and are ready for a new challenge. What are the chances of finding work here. We are learning Greek, but find it easier to learn when hands on. Any feedback would be appreciated. We areby PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Fanis Apartments, Polychrono - 14 years ago
Hi, all. We have also been going to The Fanis for the past 4 years. Hi P Norman. We are going beginning of July. You are right, no bad reviews. Yes there are a few water sports in Polychrono.There are excursions,but if you want to make your euro go further don't book with The rep, you will pay over the odds for the same trip. Book with the local tours. There are various tours available. Our fby PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Fanis Apartments - 15 years ago
Hi. If you want some privacy, you are better booking an apartment. The studios are small and compact. All 3 beds in one room. You will not be disappointed at the Fanis or Polychrono. This will be our 5th year at the Fanis, and we try to go there at least twice a year.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki

Re: Fanis Apartments - 15 years ago
Hi jenwren, Glad you like the info. I've really not got much to say any more about fanis. Please say hi to Dinos and Saki. You will understand why people want to go back year after year when you have tried fanis for yourself. We have been back numerous occassions, and I have to admit I am like a child. I am so excited to return I cannot explain how I feel. I feel so at home , but the hoby PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: fanis - 15 years ago
Hi . Unfortunately when you go we arrive. This will be our 8th time to Fanis. Can,t get enough of it. There are many local greek tavernas in Polychrono. I'm sure you could try a different one each night. As you said, great reviews. I hope when you get back you will recommend it to other readers as well. I have to say, Fanis is becoming more popular each year. If you want to go back agaby PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki
Re: Fanis Apartments - 15 years ago
Hello jenwren, I can honestly say you will not be disappointed when you arrive at Fanis. Hospitality: You can't get any friendlier than Saki and Dinos. Saki is the owner and Dinos is the Barman. Very friendly. You are right on the beach front. All you need to do is cross the road and hey presto the beach is there. If you are lucky you may even see the the dolphins.

Hi Charlotte, When did you go to Fanis. What has Dinos been saying about us? Was Saki and Dimitri well. Can,t wait to go back. Tried to e-mail Dinos but it won,t accept the email address. If anyone else can give me, it would also be appreciated.by PDewhurst6 - Halkidiki

Re: fanis - 16 years ago
