Good morning. I have just been on the telephone to Olympic holidays to clarify which properties are available for solo travellers. The woman was really helpful. There are 4: Villa Nina and Roulla Studios which are on the website and 2 others which aren't - Kapios (which is booked completely for the 2014 season) and Villa Theodoro. Has anyone been to the Theodoro as I can't find anything on the internet at all. Seems the Olympic website has been updated and they are having teething problems!!

Hi, this one is a bit of a puzzle, as you say nothing on the internet for either of them and to me it is a bit odd something is fully booked when there is no information available or am I being cynical ? I have never heard of either of them, maybe they have been renamed, hopefully someone can shed some light on this, did Olympic say when there would be more information available on these properties ?

Hi Carol - yes since making the phone call I have been thinking this is very odd as well. Why would anyone book something on the phone without having some details about the property? All she said was that the new website was having teething problems. I'll wait to see if anyone does throw any light on this here and then follow up again with Olympic in a couple of days.

Are you sure they are on Halki ? sometimes when you search you get suggestions for Rhodes and Symi .. Just wondering if the Olympic staff have made a mistake They have this theodorosCant find anything on Kapios though

Possibly Liz, it wouldn't be the first time a holiday company has tried to send someone to the wrong island would it ? There is a property on Corfu with Olympic called Theodoro.

Happy Easter!! I have just rung Olympic Holidays again and spoke to someone different. The information given to me yesterday re Theodoro and Kapios was incorrect i.e. they are NOT on Halki. So there we go!!

Olympic website is a quick and easy way to book for Olympic Holidays, and as long as look for Halki accommodation and enter one person it could not be simpler and good value for money when you consider that you not only get your flight and accommodation but also your transfers but as you stated Scouser55 this year the accommodation for solo travellers has been very limited The Villa Nina in my opinion is preferable to the Roulla Studio, which is fairly compact and has a sleeping platform and shared terrace, although I am aware that couples quite regularly stay at both.
