October 2007
Dear Alicia and Thanassis,

The best vacation of our life was rewarded with beautiful new friends. We have enjoyed every moment - snorkeling, following Odysseus, trying to fish, but especially Alicia's beautiful meals. Thanassis' lessons in history and seamanship and finally learning the Greek dance steps!

Best Wishes,
Wendy, John and Meg Bishop (USA)

Your true friends forever,

Guys,

As you know I was traveling alone because Pili was too busy worrying us all around being ill and having visa issues! Poor little sausage! But she insisted I go -
I really have to say I had a very brilliant time - relaxing, exhilarating - great company - fed extremely well and have no hesitation to all our 7 friends. I will see you next year.

Love,
Andy (UK)

 

30 September 2007

Thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing week.
Thanos issued no orders, we only "needed" to do something, and learned a lot. We enjoyed the company of Thanos, Alicia and their young Polish friends. Fish was caught every day, adding to Alicia's excellent lunches!
I had dreamt of visiting Ithaca and was not disappointed. Hope to join you again some day.

Thanos and Alicia,

Brilliant week! We have loved the sailing and your company, it made for an excellent week. I'm sorry I didn't help much on the boat, next year I will be better. Good luck with the wedding, enjoy every minute.

Best Wishes,

16 September 2007

Thank you.
What an incredible week - the winds were amazing, the views breathtaking, the 'treasures' and snorkeling were beyond compare. The food - what can we say!!!
This week has created memories to last forever!

Love,
Sue and Guy (Canada)

 

9 September 2007
Thanos and Alicja,

Thank you for a truly wonderful holiday with many great memories to take back with us. Apart from the sun, sailing and swimming, we will treasure the sound of Kate's panic stricken cries as the boat hardly heeled at all, Hannah's vision of a serrated hammer, Andrew's shower moment, Mark's attempts at fishing and Caroline's command of the Polish Language!
All this was made possible by Thanos' calm disposition (apart from 's**t, the wheel's broken!') and Alicja's sunny smile, great cooking and octopus impressions!!!

See you in Martinique in January,
Andrew, Caroline, Kate, Mark, Hannah (UK)

 

August 2007
Dear Thanassis & Alicia,

Thank you both so much for this fantastic trip to the Ionian Islands!!
The islands, the water, the food, the wine and the company was just great! We hope that we have also brought something new to your lives; like the new places where we were that you have never explored before, the crazy Vikings hanging from a rope behind the boat -impressive that you didn't get a heart attack Thanassis :)
Thank you again very very much for this unforgettable holiday and great memories...

The families Wihstrom, Plegas & Flodin (Sweden)

 

5 August 2007
Thanos and Alicia,

Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience.
We have all enjoyed our generous hospitality and patience - we have never sailed before! Harry especially enjoyed heeling!! However he soon got used to it.
Thanos you are such an amazing sailor, so cool and calm. Alicia, what can we say - mermaid, excellent chef and sailor.
You are both very good teachers!

Best Wishes,
Georgina, Peter, Vicky, Harry, Tom (UK)

All aboard the good ship, Edge and Baizan. A wonderful week of wind, hot weather and ice!!! So glad Aurora enjoyed herself as the first baby crew member.

Good luck with everything,

Dear Alicja and Thanos

Great times sailing in the Greek Islands, thanks for putting up with all the Edges and for showing us the sights!

Dear Thanos and Alicja,

Yet again a wonderful week with more adventures - and this time proper Greek weather!
Thank you for all the wonderful experiences, yummy food, hospitality and Gin! Yet again thanks for sharing your beautiful area of the world with us. Looking forward to seeing you in the Caribbean!

Lots of love,
Vicki (UK)

 

1 July 2007
Dear Thanos and Alicja,

As I write this I feel quite sad to be leaving, as does Ben.
This week with you both, on your beautiful yacht has been just simply 'Perfect'. We could not have asked for anything more. The sailing, swimming and evenings will stay fond memories - the NIGHT sail was magical and one we shall all never forget! The full moon, the music, the warm air, and the heeling! A sail the most experienced yachtsmen would be jealous of, I think!
Thank you both so very much for one of the best holidays we have ever had. (Don't work too hard next week!)
We look forward to your return visit to the UK asap! so you can enjoy our hospitality in sunny Tollesbury!

Lots of love,
Eve and Ben (UK)

 

1 July 2007
Thanos and Alicja,

We have had the most amazing week, seen the most beautiful scenery and enjoyed the fabulous company. Thank you so much - you both work so hard. You two deserve to be sailing around these spectacular islands - or perhaps the Caribbean??

Thank you once again,
lots of love,
Oli and Vix (UK)
P.S. You must come and stay with us on your next visit to the UK!

 

24 June 2007
Dear Alicia and Thanos,

I had been feeling rather scared at the prospect, but as soon as I met you both, that all fell away - I had a wonderful week, good company, marvelous scenery -seeing new places and ones I knew- Alicia's wonderful lunches. Best of all, your kindness and helpful friendship.
You are a great team.

Love,
Glena (UK)

 

24 June 2007

Super holiday. A complete change. A bit too hot at times, but wonderful scenery. Good company, good food, what more could one ask. I wish you well in your future together and perhaps we will meet again.

Best wishes,
Phil (UK)

 

24 June 2007
Alicia and Thanos

Thank you so very much for a wonderful time sailing around the Ionian Islands. My regret is that I didn't try and learn more about sailing earlier in the week!
Congratulations on your engagement, you are a beautiful couple and make a great team. I loved everything about the holiday (except perhaps the loo!!)

Love,
Angela Andrews (UK)

 

24 June 2007

Thank you both so much for an absolutely wonderful week aboard Alexandros. It has been fantastic to explore the Ionian Islands in such a magical way and we have greatly enjoyed your company and of course Alicja's cooking! Thank you for looking after us so well and sharing this special place with us on your fantastic yacht.
We would love to come back and will be sure to recommend you to everyone - but please keep a space for us! You would be very welcome to visit us if you are ever in the UK. Thank you again and we hope to see you again soon.

Very best wishes,
Vanessa Fay and David Ellis (UK)

Two free spirits and very happy to enjoy their amazing lifestyle with 3 Kiwis. Alicia - your cooking is second to none - anytime you need a change, we will recommend!!

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!
Liz and Mike Bayly (New Zealand)

 

21 May 2007

Thank you Alicia and Thanos for the most amazing holiday with you sailing the Ionian Seas, around these islands.
I have you to thank very much for a very pleasurable experience and introduction to Greece and those wonderful dishes prepared by Alicia!

Enjoy your future together.

Kind Regards,
Mary Anne Hutchinson (New Zealand)

Thanks for showing us the Ionian Islands from a seaward perspective: it is an experience that none of us will forget. Good luck in your Moroccan adventures and for the future.

Love from,

Thank you so much! I was hoping for a great week, but it was so much more... you are charming hosts, friendly and welcoming, and everything was just perfect.

17 September 2006
Athanassios and Alicja,

At the end of a wonderful week, we are 5 kilos heavier from Alicja's wonderful cooking, and 5 kilos lighter from happiness! Thanks for showing us the delights of the Ionian Islands and for your explanations of interesting features such as ERIC (we're still not convinced that is a real wind!).
Great crew as well, made it the best week.

Love from
Lorna and Alistair (UK)

 

17 September 2006
Thanos and Alicja,

Once again a wonderful week with amazing friends. The crew, the guests, a special combination. Laughing is such a wonderful medicine. I'll start now making the quiz for next year!

Much love,

17 September 2006
Thanos and Alicja,

It was a wonderful voyage! Enjoyed the company of the crew and your generous hospitality. Hopefully not remembered for simply my skills in 'stirring' the boat! Will have many memories of the trip.

Many, many thanks,

27 August 2006
Thanos & Alicja

A great time was had by all! Some smells will live with us forever - mostly it was just a really enjoyable time.
Now all we have to look forward to, is getting the ouzo home safely.

Thank you for a lovely holiday.
Bob and Gill (UK)

 

27 August 2006
Dear Thanos and Alicja

Thanks for a very enjoyable week, especially Alicja's pasta(says Jack) and also for teaching us about sailing. We both had a great time swimming in bays all across the Ionian. Hope you enjoy your week off.

Dear Thanos and Alicia,

Thanks for your skill and care and consideration - a perfect sail, a perfect sea, and the right people to go with it -

Sail on with good wishes,
Marti (UK)

 

20 August 2006
Dear Thanos and Alicia,

Thanks for the wonderful holiday. Really nice lunches. Alicia, I never had a grilled cheese like yours. And Thanos, thanks for teaching us about sailing and getting mum to swim in deep water; I know that doesn't sound like much, but BELIEVE me it is!
from Kevin
Hear, Hear! says dad!

Thanks 2 u both!
Mulcahy family (Ireland)

 

13 August 2006
Dear Alicia and Thanos,

Thank you for this trip - it was not what I expected, but magical in many ways - maybe I will come back with friends when there is more wind and do a lot of sailing. I think I will remember for a long time the night in the bay and our thunderstorm!

Wishing you many happy adventures,
Caroline (UK)

 

6 August 2006

'Efcharisto!' for a wonderful week of sun, sea and Mythos!

A perfect holiday - we are all relaxed after sailing, swimming and so much good food & friendship.
Sally

A fantastic way to explore the Ionian Islands - loved the food, the ouzo and retsina. Thanks Athanassios and Alicia

What skies, what seas, what dawns, what horizons (P.S. what gray clouds! Phew!). Lots of love,
Gill & Chris

Prettiest village: Sivota
Best bay: Fiskardo (with the cave you can walk into and swim out!)
Best restaurants: Vathy - up a side street, Lefkas - up a side street!
Best shops: Fiskardo
Best tour guides: Thanos and Alicja
Hope we can sail with you again (but not across the Atlantic, Thanos)

Marcia, Ian and Caroline (UK)

 

2 July 2006
Dear Thanos and Alicia,

Mmm, so, I would like to let you know what a fantastic time we have had with you both on your beautiful yacht. The weather was fantastic and the places you took us to, got better and better - from beautiful to very, very beautiful.
Alicia's - the mermaid - lunches were incredibly mouth watering. The ouzo and liqueurs were a lovely touch. We all feel that we have become friends with you rather than 'customers'. Thank you so much for making our tour of the Ionian such an enjoyable experience - only three more, then we can have the free cruise!!
Hope to see you again soon - either in Lefkas or the Butcher's Arms at Balscote.

Lots of love and Best wishes,
Dave & Avis, Alias flip flop Boy, Speedo Boy & Sleepy Bye, Lyn & Nigel (UK)

 

11 June 2006
Dear Thanos and Alicja,

Thank you for a wonderful week of hospitality and Greek islands - it's been an eventful week with weather and language lessons. I'm sure you won't forget us in a hurry - best of luck for the rest of the season, which I'm sure will go really well. Maybe I'll pop back to experience proper Greek weather! And thank you for the wonderful food too, Alicja!

Lots of love,
Vicki (UK)

 

11 June 2006
Dear Thanos and Alicia,

Thank you for a wonderful week despite the problems! (No, I'm not including your dad Alicia as one of those - he falls more into the entertainment category!) Everything was lovely except the weather, but that wasn't your fault.
I will be straight into a diet when I get home to lose the weight I've put on after eating Alicia's wonderful food.
Charlie and I wish you every success in the future and we will definitely recommend it to our friends, and perhaps come back ourselves soon. It has certainly been an eventful week (and I don't think that you will forget it and us quickly!).

We have had such a great time!
Charles and Hilary (UK)

 

3 June 2006
Thank you Thanos and Alicia,

We all had a brilliant time, a holiday the boys will not forget - fish catching, crab poking and the prize octopus in a bucket! Well dome Alicia for cooking the catch of the day, although small - delicious.
You can have some peace and quiet now - leaving you to no sound effects!

Love,
Andrew, Lorraine & boys -Jack, Daniel, Paul-  x x x x   (UK)

 

Thanks Thanos and Alicia for a wonderful holiday and you were so kind and enjoyable and I'm going to come back next year for a fortnight!
Jack

Thanks Thanos and Alicia! I had a great time with you for a week and Alicia your food was excellent! Will see you in a year hopefully.
Love, Daniel

I have had a very likeable time with you! I hope we come back again next year, can't wait to see you two again.
See you soon, Paul
P.S. I enjoyed playing with your anchor! x

 

28 May 2006

Thanks Thanos and Alicia for a fantastic week's holiday, a dream realized that's taken 40 years for me (Graham). This is what sailing is all about and we all agree this has been one of the best experiences we've ever had.

We hope to see you again,
Graham, Anne, Peter and Lesley (UK)

Dear Thanos & Alicja,
Two lovely people....
Reach for the moon, if you miss you can only land on a star!

21 May 2006
Thanos and Alicja,

We have had a wonderful week, thank you for your hospitality. You have made us feel very welcome and it is the most relaxing holiday I have had in years. My first experience of sailing and I am keen to do more.
Paul

Perhaps we will do our lessons on a lake at home (not really as nice as the Ionian) and then meet you in a port somewhere around the world.
Have a good summer both of you......happy sailing!!!
Pam x x

 

14 May 2006
Thanos and Alicia,

Thank you so much for such a wonderful relaxing time. Everything was absolutely perfect, the sailing, the weather, the fabulous lunches with our 'liqueur tasting' each day.
Alicia, you must enter the next Olympics with your wonderful swimming.
You have made me feel like part of your family..... and I hope you have many children of your own...!!

See you next year & thank you
Lawrence (UK)

 

14 May 2006
Athanassios and Alicja,

Thank you for your wonderful hospitality - a great way for us to celebrate our 25th Anniversary (and Gord's birthday).
Food was great, sailing was wonderful, your insights and knowledge of the islands invaluable. Truly a sailing holiday of a lifetime.

The week here has felt like we've been in your home. Your comfortable manners made for a very special week. Best Greek salad & loved the liqueurs We will return!

Best Regards,
Maria and Gordon (Canada)

Captain Thanos and his Swiss army knife (Alicja)

Thank you so much for a wonderful week - we really enjoyed our introduction to sailing and our first trip to Greece - you looked after us amazingly well. Good luck for all you do in the future.

Jan, John, Moira and Chris (UK)

 

25 September 2005

It has been great to be once again sailing with you Thanos. Catching up on your news. So glad you are following your dream - and what a dream.....!
We had a wonderful holiday..... great sailing, swimming, cooking, wine and GREAT COMPANY.
It has been great to have met you Alicia - so talented (wonderful lunches, swimming......) and always smiling, radiating warmth to everyone.
Thank you to you both. I will be back!

See you again soon! Love,
Abby   x

 

25 September 2005
Dear Alicia and Thanos

Thank you both for a wonderful holiday. Every time we make a meal from the Greek cook book, it will bring back memories of shared lunches so splendidly conjured up by Alicia. We look forward to sharing a 'Metaxa Alexandros' with you again Thanos, in the not so distant future. Good luck and best wishes for this new venture - can't fail.

Georgie and Roger (UK)

 

September 2005
Thanos and Alicia

We have loved this trip!
It's a great way of seeing the 'real' Greece. The very professional Thanos is a terrific captain - the trip is really well organized - while still remaining relaxed and laid-back. I liked learning about sailing and can even tie a few knots now. Your country is beautiful, especially its people, and I'd love to come back.
Alicia, I love your beautiful smile, laughter and wonderful cooking. You've inspired me to try some Greek cooking of my own! I hope you have a good season next year and in the years to come.
All the best,
Tracey (UK)


Thank you for the most relaxing and enjoyable summer holiday ever. It was great to learn sailing and eat your wonderful food. Greece is fantastic and I can only hope we will be back (hopefully soon).
Thank you,
Graeme (the anchor man)

 

17 September 2005
Thanos and Alicia,

We've had a wonderful and relaxing time aboard your home and you have both been magnificent hosts. Thank you for the beautiful views; the lovely lunches; arranging the dolphins (3 times!!); and your patience in teaching us a bit about sailing.
Thank you for a memorable holiday and the best birthday. Wish you all the best and hope to see you again sometime.

Love,
Darren and Kate (UK)

 

17 September 2005
Thanos and Alicia,

Thank you ever so much. A truly unforgettable experience. Lovely weather and lovely food.... What more can anyone ask for. See you again when I have my own yacht!

Goodbye!

17 September 2005
Dear Thanos and Alicia,

Thanks for the wonderful sailing experience you have given me. I really appreciate all the hard work you both have done, to make this whole experience a time to remember.

Many Thanks,
Anh A.KA 'Feltzi'

 

17 September 2005
Thanos and Alicia

Thank you for a wonderful week onboard your home! This has been a great break for me away from the hassle of work. I have relaxed and enjoyed your sailing and had no reason to not think about becoming a captain myself!

Thanks loads,
Ryad (UK)
P.S. And remember the new word for 'cheers' is 'Tortallines'!!

 

17 September 2005
Great thanks Thanos and Alicia

I cannot remember the last time I felt as peaceful and relaxed as I did on the boat. I would like to thank you for an amazing week! Thanos' talents are not only that of an amazing captain, he also talks to the 'dolphins agents' and gets them to swim by us, he even talks to Him upstairs to sort out the weather!
And Alicia is a wonderful gracious hostess (one small word of warning, she never eats her own food!!). I do not want to leave, but I have a feeling they will make me.

Thanks,
Abby (UK)
P.S. Tortalienos!

 

17 September 2005
To the Captain & his Water-baby,

Thank you for the most relaxing week I've had in 24 years! Alicia's cooking and hospitality are second to none, while Thanos' excellent skills made us feel safe all week.
Thank you for the personal touches and making us feel so welcome.

With fond regards,
Amie & Fraser (UK)

 

4 September 2005

We sailed about the Ionian Sea,
The Cooches, Franco and me.
We sailed along at a steady pace,
Each night docking in a brand new place.

With turquoise sea and bright blue sky,
We'll all miss Alicia's plum pie.
Reversing in to find a mooring,
None of us will miss big Al and Beck's snoring.

The sails went up and the sails went down,
like Franco's knickers on a big night in the town.
Thanos the cool skipper said starboard and port,
Never once did he shout abort about.

We swam in the sea and ate like kings,
Rachel just moaned, where are my water wings.
On behalf of the crew of August 05,
for feeding us well and keeping us alive.

We'll come here again and sail out to sea,
Thanos, Alicia, Toni and me.

Many Many Thanks
See you soon  x x x

 

27 August 2005

Fantastic!!
Very special friends - wonderful food - a lot of laughter. Thank you for not throwing me overboard! I loved the ??????? sailing and the mid-day swim. Thank you mermaid, you are fantastic. Thank you captain.

Love,
Sue (Canada)

 

27 August 2005

Thanks for a fabulous week. I've never been sailing before, but will definitely do it again - what a wonderful way to see the Greek Islands! Wonderful food, great company and lots of fun. Thanks for everything - hope to return as soon as possible.

Cheers!
Andy Lester (UK)

 

27 August 2005

Amazing, Fantastic, Perfect!
My first time sailing and what a fabulous introduction. Thank you Thanos and alicia for being such great hosts. I cannot put into words all the wonders of the trip! Please have me back again?!!! I promise not to drop anything on the deck!

Thank you,
Corinna Harris (UK)

 

27 August 2005

A brilliant holiday - the sailing ranged from sedate to thrilling. 'Eric' was quite an experience as was the beautiful sea. Thank you both for the care and attention - you've shown us a very special side of Greece. Thank you both.
Sally (UK)

A taster of things to come. Thank you.
Maria (UK)

 

27 August 2005

Our first time here for 20 years and it was even better now. Mermaids, caves, aqua sea - just like Sheffield.

Thank you for looking after us so well.

'Thailing with Thanoth'

Thanoth our thkipper, Alicja our hosteth,
They are a couple with the mosteth.
The anchor goes up, the anchor goes down,
Will we ever leave this town?

Alicja the mermaid swimming ashore,
Thanoth's wit we all adore.
Alicja's lunches are so delicious,
why doesn't Thanoth do the dishes?

A little to starboard, a little to port,
A small adjustment, the genoa's taut.
Lee-ho it's time to tack,
Come on crew, we can't be slack!

'Fenders out!' is the captain's shout.
We tie them up, he sorts them out.
Anchoring's an art we won't forget,
But we haven't mastered it as of yet.

Whithling lethons on the stern,
will Thanoth ever learn?
G and T on the deck,
We're pithed again, so what the heck!?

Thank you Thanoth, Alicja and all your Fore-Fenders for a wonderful holiday, it was 'perfect!'
Keri, Caroline, Jonathan, Maggie and Ian (UK)

 

7 August 2005
To Alicia and Thanos,

We have had a great time sailing with you in the Ionian sea. It has been a wonderful experience Alicia, your cooking was great, especially the things that tasted like chips. Thanos, thank you for teaching us the basics of sailing.

Thank you for your company, time and effort.
Philip, Sophie and Daniel (UK)

 

31 July 2005
Thanos and Alicia,

Thank you very much for a fantastic time. Great sailing, great seas, great cooking and great company. I know that we will all remember our time in the Ionian Seas for a long time.

P.S. Parking the car will never be the same again!

I had lots of fun and the food was great! It rocked my boat! Sam and Emily (UK)

 

31 July 2005

Just as everyone has said, thank you for a brilliant holiday. I had never sailed before, but I will definitely do it again. Alicia, good luck with the Greek and keep up the wonderful cooking and swimming. And Thanos, keep being a super sailor.

Many Thanks from the Daniel family
Amy, Margaret, Jack and Paul (UK)

 

10 July 2005
To Thanos and Alicia

This was my first experience of yachting and of Greece. Under the cool command of Thanos, assisted by the able Alicia - half mermaid, half tarzan - I really really enjoyed absolutely everything.
Val (UK)

This holiday lived up to all my expectations. The only problem was keeping cool, so I particularly enjoyed the swimming and snorkeling. Thank you both for a wonderful holiday!
Marj (UK)

Thanks for a wonderful time and for the excellent food and company. I will never forget our invasions of Onassis island! See you soon?!
Morgan (UK)

Thank you so much for this amazing holiday. I have enjoyed seeing all the islands we have been to and the dolphins were amazing!
I am sure when I am at work next week, I will be wishing I was back! Have a lovely summer. Lots of love,
Sarah

Thanks for an awesome trip. May your future experiences be just like this one... and shine like the sun, the moon and the stars.
Roger and Tim

Thanos and Alicia

Had a wonderful time, sunny weather, great food, beautiful scenery. My first boating experience could not have been better. Enjoy the rest of the summer.
Love, Janet x x   (UK)

An exceptional holiday. Beautiful Greece seen from a wonderful yacht with wonderful people. How we struck lucky with Thanos and Alicia, I will never know - more a foreboding lifestyle than a holiday!
We will be back!
