from airport to hotel marvel

<< < (2/3) > >>

Fiona:
Hotel Marvel is marvellous!  We have just come back from two weeks there (our second visit) and are booked in for another week in August.  In fact they are fully booked until the end of the season.  You will enjoy it I'm sure - very small and friendly and run by Kostas and Spiros who are brothers.  For those of you who don't know the location, it's about 2 minutes walk from the Brouklis, 5 mins from the beach and situated next to the Rainbow bar/apartments.  A nice quiet location and a fantastic pool.

The journey from the airport can take a while - our first trip took over two hours so we booked a taxi this time which took no more than 50 mins and we were sitting drinking Metaxas with Kostas at 6am after our night flight!!  I guess, if there are a lot of people for Arillas, the bus will go straight there and not round the houses, but you won't know this till you get there.

Good luck and enjoy your stay.

I'll definitely give the thumbs up for Hotel Marvellous! I have stayed there twice. The family run hotel is very friendly, clean and very hospitable.  Spyros aka Jack Nicholson (say that to him it makes him smile) and Costas are lovely, as is their ma and pa and cheeky chops Yannis. The pool, added last year is an absolute bonus and its good to hear that they are fully booked up til the end of the year.  Read the guest book too, its such a hoot  :lol: be sure to add your comments though.  I'm sure you will have a supa dupa time.

:D   Hi Laura,

I am also going to Arillas for the first time in July.  What date are you going, and how long for?  I am going on 18th July for a week.

I also have concerns about the long coach transfer but, as it is a day flight, I am trying to be positive and look on it as a chance to see the rest of the island.  Not sure that I'll want to repeat the experience on the way back though and may consider getting a taxi back to the airport.

Hopefully, see you there

Hi eveybody thanx for you replies they have been very helpful and we are going to decide what we are going to do when we get to the airport in Arillas but im hoping we get a taxi. We are really looking forward to staying in the hotel Marvel and it sounds great from all your comments!
HI sue! We are going on the 22nd so we may see you as we are there for a week i think!
Once again thanx to you all, your comments have been a help!

Fiona:
Hi Laura

Pleased you have found our comments useful.  I know you will enjoy your stay at the Marvel.

Are you by any chance travelling with Thomas Cook?  If so, there are two really great reps called Laura and Jo who you may even meet at the airport.  Jo does the introduction meeting, but they both visit the hotel quite often (even on their days off!!) and are good fun.  

Have a great holiday.

Fiona
