Title: Help Needed
Post by: Mick and Jill on June 01, 2007, 02:54:40 PM
Well Arillas friends I need your help.  We have been going to Arillas for numerous years and have always stayed with out friend at Portofino.  Just getting ready to book for 21st September, phoned him to confirm and he has no rooms free for the 10 days we want.  Can't believe it.

Well this is why I need you help! 

Does anyone know any where that we can book independently that woud be ok for me, Mick and Calum.  It has to be in the village, couldn't cope with long treks home on a night.  Have heard people mention the Horizon, can they be contacted directly, Amour Apartment, Irenes Villa etc.

Please let me know as soon as possible as I have a headache already stressing about this.

Jill

It's all part of the service!!!...I'm sure someone said that to me in Arillas recently!

I do have more somewhere on file, I also have a habit of picking up business cards when I'm out and about.  LOL... more clutter to sort out when I get home, but hey they do come in handy!

September is turning out to be a very busy and popular month for holidaymakers now, the prices are almost on a par with early July.

I can recommend the Arilla Inn apartments opposite the Rainbow. I've stayed there a couple of times and they are clean and spacious with air conditioning. Some have three beds. Let me know if you want Leo's (Ammos) contact number.

Hi Sandy,

I've always wondered what these apartments were like inside as they look lovely.  Everytime I pass it looks as though they are empty.

Anyway you jogged my memory about these apartments for Jill....

Need accommodation for 4 adults as well as a child now, our mates who also normally stay at Portofino are also homeless for their stay. 

Are there any villas localy do you know, like the sound of having our own place.

Jill,

Eileen has got a beautiful villa, maybe she could solve your problem.

Already thought of that John and but Eileen is going over there herself then.  Would love to stay at her villa though maybe next year.

We have stayed in the Arilla InnApartments on our second visit to Arillas.  Will get in touch think they are now let through Arkokal Travel.  Wasn't sure if they would be letting them this year if the family are having disagreements, heard that the taverna won't be open at all this season.

Hi Jill,

The Kaloudis [ Splish Splash ] have their own private room. We should have stayed there two years ago but had a death in the family and had to cancel.
Roula showed us around, they are beautiful. It has two bedrooms, sofa bed in living room, fully fitted kitchen, walk in en suite, living room with television, all the windows are fitted with mosquito guard.
The funishings and fittings are of a very high standard.
It is large and would sleep six.
Don't know if it would be available but worth a try.
Sorry I have not got the email address but sure someone would have it.

Good luck.

John

I have booked the Arilla Inn Apartments for August. We just went in to Ammos last week and booked direct with Leo. His phone number is 0030 6932226066. Usually he puts you on to his wife as she speaks better English.
