CUSTOMER FEEDBACK 2007

I just wanted to pass on my thanks to you and everyone I dealt with at Thalpos for our wonderful holiday in Greece. We had a great, great time on Skopelos and I think it has now become my favorite vacation spot (used to be Hawaii).
....Once again, thanks very much for everything. I'm already planning my return next year to the island. It will be another short trip with a longer trip planned for 2009. Enjoy yourself in paradise.
Tammy Bratton, Canada, Villa Chrysalis and Villa Vigla - July 2007

Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed our week at Fishermans cottage. What a beautiful place, I only wish now I'd booked a fortnight.
Can you pass on our thanks to your representative in Alonissos she was most helpful at the port when we arrived and came out to have a chat the following day to see we were okay, and many thanks to you for your efficient and friendly service. Thalpos has been friendly and helpful from start to finish. I will most definately recommend you to all our friends and colleagues.
See you next year
