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!!
Cyprus would be my choice, Protaras is brill ive been 8 times, gorgeous beaches, fab places to eat. You can find bars with entertainment if you wish, you do have karaoke bars but you can also find quiet ones as well. The weather will be perfect at the beginning of September, hot but not unbearable like July and Auguas.
We're the same age as you and sounds like we look for the same type of holiday! In recent years we've enjoyed holidays in Parga, Skiathos (Town), Lassi in Kefalonia, Kamari in Santorini and been back to Kalamaki in Zante twice. Skiathos in particular has lots of great beaches and the town is lovely in the evening - plenty of bars and tavernas surround the harbour area. Parga, on the mainland is similar - we stayed near Valtos Beachfor our honeymoon which is then a short walk or water taxi into Parga town. Well, there's a few ideas for you! Next year I'm thinking of trying Kassiopi in Corfu. Good luck, Cejay
we are going to Skiathos at the end of August first time. Been to Lassi in San lorenzo Village, fab place and island. Didnt like Rhodes. Been to Tsilivi in Zante hated it, beach was naff much better in Laganas. Cyprus is my favourite place bar none.
