Dave and Gerry's Alonissos Island Information Site
 

Welcome to Dave and Gerry's Alonissos Island Web Site at Ivicourt.com
Dave and Gerry welcome you to our web site which we are developing as a major source of info. for our family and friends about the island of Alonissos.  All the information about the island of Alonissos can be accessed via the menu bar at the top of each page.
About the Athens Metro:  The Metro service to and from Athens Airport has been suspended for 6 months from the middle of February, due to the construction of 3 new stations.  You will either need to take one of the airport express buses X92, X93, X94, X95, X96, X97 or interchange between Metro Line 1 and the suburban railway (Proastiakos) at Nerantziotissa Station.
About Us has a variety of information relating to Villa Aliki including contact details and location.  We have also provided links to some of the services we have used in buying and maintaining the house.  Check out our Greek Odyssey for some info. on the islands we visited before discovering Alonissos and why not have a go at some of the Greek recipes from the kitchen of Villa Aliki.
Accommodation For Rent:  Gerry's brother Nik and his wife Lyn have a fully fitted, centrally heated one bedroom house for all year round rental in the Old Village.  The house has car access and is conveniently situated for all the local shops and tavernas.  Nik and Lyn are keen to make your stay a not to be forgotten experience.  Follow the link to Owners Direct for more information.
Agia Paraskevi is the patron saint of the island and the main church in Patitiri is named in her honour.  The church is the centre of Greek Orthodoxy and religious sevices are conducted there by the island's priest Father Avraam.  English language services are also being held and if you would like news and information about the church and forthcoming events then click on the icon of the saint.
Alonissos Info A-Z is our store of knowledge about the island and gathered under this heading is everything about Alonissos that has been gleaned from the Internet along with our personal experiences.  Every event that we attend and every trip we make is a fact finding mission and we intend to continually update our existing information on the island as well as adding new information.
