Sifnos was highly recommended by a Greek friend who helped organizing our stay on Sifnos. I checked various websites about Sifnos, which provided all good information. Another source of information was my German travel guide, which was indeed very helpful. My impression was that the persons who let rooms to guests should be available via internet or have their own homepages.
Sifnos was beautiful indeed, there were not many things to do but the villages and nature was nice. Plati Gialos and Kamares were our favourite beaches, but I think in general the Greek islands have better beaches than in Sifnos. The highlight of Sifnos are the villages, all white and traditional. Kastro and Apollonia were excellent and had so nice taverns!
Food was very delicious though portions may vary in size. We have been trying the usual Tsatsiki or the usual Greek salad and found out that the quantities you get (for the same price) vary a lot. Sometimes we could not help the feeling that being a tourist was not necessarily an advantage. We stayed four days in Sifnos but when we were leaving we thought that one ot two more days would be better, just to go back to our favourite places.
