me and my girlfriend have decided on a nice weeks holiday in September. However we are not sure on where yet.
We would like lovely sandy beaches with clear sea, a nice selection of restaurants and places to eat in the evening, with some classic entertainment if we need . we dont want somewhere overly party style, just the odd quiz or live music with a man playing the guitar in the corner of the room jobby !!
we want it to be nice and coupley and romantic, where we can stroll on the front,and it all nicely lit up, with a choice of nice resturants and bars for us to wander around. certainely not ' dead ' and 'quiet' but , we dont want it busy either, just not wanting to be the only people in the restaurant. we are a classic couple really, we want nice big golden ( sandy) beachs for the day. then go home and get showered and changed , have a nice walk around, we dont mind walking at all, so a nice few pretty and atttractive places all lit up would be ideal.
we'd like a nice share of shops/markets/boutiques to check out and basically have a nice little wander!.
we dont want to go to a tiny resort with only about 10 little shops and 5 restaurants and a lovely beach. as we would get bored very quick i think.
so we woiuld like to walk around, maybe along the beach or seafront, and have little bars to go in with a little bit of entertainment and a few people enjoying thereselves . we are 28 and 29 , we are not wanting a quiet distant holiday , but certainly not an overly loud pub/bar with music pumping out and down the street untill 6am . we just want a nice, romantic, relaxing , place to walk about , and plenty of shops , restaurants , and a lovely beach , with entertainment to keep us happy. it needs to be hot , and shorts and t-shirt weather in the evening !! thats a must ... we are planning to go in september , around 8th.
were thinking - Portugal ( algarve) , Cyprus , Gran Canaria, Malta , Rhodes maybe, Crete ?? hmmm ... HELP PLEASEEEEE !!
any suggestions on my preferences, would be really good. as we are struggling to pin-point a place to go.
thankyou very very much !! i just hopew we get a lovely place and wont get bored after a day, becuase we have seen it all in 2 hours!!
I would suggest:-
corfu - Roda - its not as lively as Sidari, Sidari can stil be quite lively in September, Roda is beautiful, a bit more quieter, lovely bars and restaurants along the beach etc, very nice there and for couples.
Portugal - Algarve - Albufeira - Sao Joao - its beautiful here, main strip like most places, good restaurants and lively places or quieter places, you choose, beautiful place, lovely beach, although cardiac hill (yes its called that for a reason) is ok going down, coming back up isnt too good if you have walking difficulties - but Sao Joao is beautiful by day and night, plenty of shops etc.
Portugal - Praia Da Rocha - beautiful place as well for couples
Portugal - Vilamoura - another lovely place.
Hope this helps

HI. Just a little suggestion - I'm not sure whether you've asked this question on any of the other forums or were you specifically looking for a resort on Corfu. If you're open to suggestions elsewhere you might get more readers in the general section 
Well! I think the place definitely for you two is ...Skiathos 
Okay for about four days for the missus and I, we stayed for two weeks and was bored silly after the first week...but I must admit its a lovely little island for what you are after, the beaches are excellent, Skiathos town is nice, not a lot for us two shopping alcos but nice.
We had a boat ride to two other islands (Alonissos and Skopelos ) watched some helicopters picking up water from the sea to douse huge fires on one island and spotted a school of dolphins not far off the boat, brilliant, all on video.
Deffo a romantic feel about the trip.
