Hi All
I will be visiting Halki for the first time on the 19th June. I have booked the one bed apartment at the Villa Nina with Olympic
but am having problems finding any up to date reviews.The few older ones I have found are about the 2 bedroom apartment and were not
all favourable.
If anyone has any info I would be very grateful.
Can't wait to get to Halki as it looks like Heaven, just hope I have not made a mistake with the accommodation.

Hi
Thanks for your welcome as you say hopefully someone will be along soon.
Do you know if there is now a working ATM on the island or is cash still he best option?
Many thanks

My money would be on 'cash' - it is what we are doing next week.
Who knows, someone may post a favourable update about the ATM (oink, oink, flap, flap).

Hi Soupdragon,We have stayed at Villa Nina the last 5 years and booked again for May next year but we are in the two bedroom upstairs,.The one bedroom downstairs has just been refurbished and this is first year that guests have stayed there .It is small but adequate and I have said if I was not used to the space upstairs I would book it.Upstairs guests cross the edge of your bougainvillea edged balcony for access,there is nice view out to sea from balcony,maybe you will get a review from guests this year enjoy

Hi Aegina1943
We usually stay in studio's so as long as the place is at least that big we won't have an issue.
Is the view from ours restricted in any way or is it just as spectacular as yours? We come out on Wed 7th, when are you there?
Cheers Tom

That's it now - will never be able to talk of sausages again - they will from henceforth onwards be called 'snorkers' in this household - what, what! |

Hi Tom,,well the view is a bit restricted as from top I can see harbour area etc but you do have unrestricted view out to sea so you should catch sight of ferries etc,,, thats the high point the big ferry lol,, The apartment done in a palish blue and looks nice with beds at one end then living area then round corner to kitchen area then shower and toilet could say its kind of "L" shaped.by the way this year we also had free wi-fi .I am sure you will enjoy as its easy stroll in to village.

Hi Aegina1943
Free wi-fi?
Is that from one of the local tavernas or has the owner set it up for guests to use?
Cheers Tom
