Try Elena Stella - Olga of Olga's travel. We have stayed there, right at the edge of village, lovely pool but probably full already.

It is very late to be trying for mid July. I think most will be fully booked. Hope you get something.

Claire, you could try Bobby at Bardis Sun, but they are usually booked a year in advance for July. I will email him, but don't hold out any hopes. Bakery worth following up. Just a bit nearer Rainbow than Elena Stella.

I have emailed the bakery apartments but im sure I emailed them last year and no one replied< I wonder if anyone could get a message to them or do you know if the owners speak English so I can call them??

Sorry luvver. I have emailed Bobby but have no knowledge of how to contact bakery. I am only their occasional customer for bread.

Best of luck,
Phil

I guess my advice is to book anything you can get for mid July. It will be limited, but you could get lucky.

And decide about 2014 and book it before you leave.

Claire, try Booking.com lots of apartments in Arillas have their properties listed with them, it might make your search a little quicker.
You book on line, but they have free cancellation. According to their booking form you pay the owners direct.

Try www.angelasapartments.iowners.net. Angela has apartments by the bridge by the Galini, and also a small house just up the road from it. I've not been in them, but they look nice from outside.

Try Arilla Inn studios just over the road....some of them take 3. Or also Alexandra studios in between the Bakery and Rainbow. The Bakery apartments don't belong to the bakery...Italians owned them at one point but don't know if that is still the case.

If you contact Green Corfu, Alex can book the Bakery for you. He has an office just up the hill behind Amourada. Also what about Irene's.

Hi again. Bobby has emailed, and here are his tips.Mine in red.

Hello from cloudy Corfu.
Spoke to Alexandros next door to Rainbow.
He can only accommodate the couple with the infant.

Then I thought Angela's apartments is a very good option.
I believe she is on the forum and best way to get in touch with is to give her a ring. (Or PM Angela01 on forum, or on Facebook in Ailliacs)

Also another option is Irene's villas next door to Rainbow.
One brother has the top floor and the other the other the ground floor
They are related to Jimmy & Spiros from the Rainbow.
Contact details in their slot on here. Irene's villa lux

Perhaps the Arilla Inn appts across the Rainbow?

Like you said, finding family appts in July is  a task!!!!

end of Bobby's message


Hope this helps. Good luck with the search.

Hi Claire, we needed accommodation a few years ago having decided mid May to go out early August.  We gave Jimmy at Rainbow a call and he was able to get us booked into the ? arillas inn studios across the road from him, he had also mentioned another one near to it as well but can't remember the name, so give him a call and he could ask around for you.  good luck

Be a minibus you will need then I would think? 90 euro we have paid for 6 adults and 2 kids
Title: Re: Accomodation help please for 15th July 2013
Post by: justphil on May 08, 2013, 08:35:38 PM
Great news Claire.

Booked taxis are 50 to 55 euros but the impromtu from the airport will be more. 4 adults and a child may stretch the rules for an ordinary taxi. You  would fit, if you're not overloaded with luggage, but some will take you, some might not.

I would get Jimmy to arrange the transfer. He will sort it out homestly and safely.

Have a great time in Arillas. You can't fail at the Rainbow.
very best wishes
Phil

That's great news Claire, those Anthis boys can sort almost anything lol. As Phil says Jimmy can probably get your transfer sorted as well.

Book the mini bus Claire, taxis may sit three adults in the back....but very cramped. With a child as well you may have difficulty finding a mini bus for hire at the airport in July.

Claire, it will have to be a minibus. We always book arkokal travel as we are family of 5 and the most we have been charged is around 80 euro.

A minibus is definitely the way to go, both for comfort and price.
Villa Linakis has always used Arkokal travel and they have never been let down.
Rainbow will look after you well. -
