Staying at the Akti Arilla Thanks for the info ger ;-)
oh we are staying at the akti, but we leave on the 2nd july. you are well placed there, they do lovely food if you dont want to venture out, or turn left and brouklis is just up the road (sunday night spit roast lamb is a must!) there is a new pizza place there too, or turn right towards the beach and your choice is endless
enjoy!!!

Hi Debs, lots of places have set menus, average for these about 9-12 euros pp. With a choice of meals.
You can also get things like pizza or homemade burgers, sandwiches and the like for lunch, but we usually have brunch about 10.30am 3-5 euros for a good breakfast and something from the bakery late afternoon.
I would say the average from an extensive menu for a three course meal for two with wine is about 30-40 euros.
You can pay a lot more if you like extravagant ..... or a lots less if you like simple.
The one thing you can be sure of is.....the food will be good whatever you choose.
Sorry I can' t really recommend anywhere because we have never had a meal in Arillas that we haven't enjoyed.

Just to give you an idea of the standard that you can expect :-
Peppers stuffed with Feta and sun-dried tomatoes, enjoyed at The Horizon just last week!

Hi Debs, we are at the Akti too and you arrive at the start of our second week. There are many many good places to eat, The Akti is good too so you don't always have to venture out. We have found the last couple of times you can get a starter and main for two with a jug of wine and a bottle of water for about 25-35 Euros depending on your choices, that gives you an idea. Most places are within a few minutes gentle stroll so most quite close and friendly :-).

Apart from the Brouklis (that goes without saying) we loved Effie's and the view! Many a lovely meal we have had there, even when there was a thunderstorm and got a lift back to the Bardis Sun, grreat fun!
Hi Debs,
I have sent you a PM (Personal Message - click on your 'my messages' tab to see it)

Mmmmmmmmm Nice
Awww thank you everyone for your help and pics ...much appreciated 4 weeks and 4 days not that i am counting of course ;-)
Have a wonderful holiday. I promise you will not be disappointed. You will eat well every night and not feel ripped off, wherever you eat you will be made to feel welcome and you will find your favourites but they will be too many to mention...bet you've booked for next year before this one is out!
Debs1962Wales, here are some of my favs. The whole list would be ridiculously long....
Eftihia (Effie) Extra garlic prawns (ask for extra or mention me)
Thalassa pepper chicken or penelope's delight
Mirage saganaki prawns
Brouklis bourdetto or bifteki AND galactoboureko
Vavilas medley or anything
Graziella garlic prawns... must I stop now?
Oh, all right, just believe them all. Go anywhere and ask for anything and enjoy the amazing food they all offer.

I am hoping i can still get my favourites too ...Tzatziki, Stifado, Lamb kleftika ....ooooohh i reallycant wait ,,it cannot come quick enough :-))
Hi Debs,
Yes they all do your favourites so you really won't be disappointed! Just remember to take some bigger clothes for the end of your holiday - the last time I went for 2 weeks I put on a stone!!
Might bump into you as we overlap!
Debs, the Portifino does an amazing Stifado. Walk down all of 1 30 seconds to the beach front turn right and it is your 3rd taverna on the right. You must meet Spiros before your return, he's a real character!
and if you like fish there is thomas,s on the back road past bardis studios ,,look on the maps,to get a idea of where all is ,,yammas
Thanks cheryl ...that would be nice :-) x
Portofino also does a great stamna its well worth trying and the Horison does a great seafood platter but unlike us don't have a starter first cos it was huge ! :)
sorry Horizon :)
Yeah, we have been caught out by some of the portions in the Horizon before, very generous. Mmmm! Not long now.
MMMmmm...The Horizon is def one of our faves. Great ambience and lovely food. The desserts are to DIE FOR!! have to be taken on the sun terrace though, followed by a chaser of some sort! :-)
And a G & T on the balcony and watch the sun go down . Heaven ! :) . Wish i was still going :(

We stayed at Horizon this year. Agree that the food is fantastic but did we miss out on something to do with the sun terrace? :)
Chris & Richard
Well I think you are all filthy! Can't believe you are trying to corrupt such an innocent girl like me...
I know Jo, can you believe it? ;-)
gary dont side withn our jo ,,dirty girl ..lol....xx
Me and Gaz are being nice to each other as we have a mutual lottery agreement!!
jo you know most wins are in essex ,where i live ,,choose your lottery partners wisely ..lol.............would i share 101 mil ..,yeah right ,,,yammas
Haven't forgotten Jo, keep your fingers crossed :-)
Is anyone flying from manchester on 2nd july with thomas cook?? Staying at the akti :-)
Quotehave to be taken on the sun terrace though
Marinos said he had noticed that people were taking desserts upstairs when it was dark. I have a feeling Jo might get a bit embarrassed when she orders desserts this year :-)
Jo, I had a £3.20 win on the Euro Lottery yesterday, does a share of that get you to your front door at least? :-)
Tezzer you will get your 'just desserts' next time I see you and Gaz I never get out of bed for less than half a million! Heh heh
Ha ha Jo. Imagine the boost to the local economy in Arillas with half a mil in your purse?
QuoteTezzer you will get your 'just desserts' next time I see you
It could be interesting for you this year Jo, as I found out yesterday that the sun terrace is now part of the restaurant. And, we know what can sometimes happen to blondes when they are sitting in restaurants with "To Die For" Desserts :-)
Terry , you 'ole b****r you!
Don't do these posts ever again.
(Until you have sent me her telephone number, anyway - and that's providing she picks up the bill - The bill, nowadays, is the only time I groan!)
Horizon has had a re-vamp and I tell you "tipota". It's looking good though and a gold star to Marinos.
Cheers
Negg
