Just got Back from makris aoertments had a lovely relaxing week with the best family hosts we have come across nothing was to much trouble . the apartments were lovely and clean we had afirst floor by the pool area. Helanna , Maria and Mum were brilliant we were takin in to Sisara to look arond but dont like all the English pubs etc.
Arillas was very Greek to us and we had lovely wlks around to the other villages 
would go back again but would only stay in Arillas as didnt like other places we visited to comercial for us.

Hi Nanasue,
Glad you had a wonderful time. The Makri family really do make you feel welcome and as you say nothing is too much trouble. We cannot wait until August when we are due to return.

I am  staying at the Makris in a few weeks time with my family. Has anyone got the Makri family's telephone number as I would like to ask them a couple of questions? Also, would anyone be kind enough to show a few holiday snaps of the apartments(inside,outside, views from front and back) as there arent many on the internet?

Hi Woody,

send me your e-mail address and i will send some photos of the large apts (sleep 6). Are you staying in these or the smaller ones? What dates are you there,where are you flying from?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply. I have sent you my email address(I think; not used to these forums). I presume the smaller room, as there are just three of us. We are arriving on 20th Aug for 2 weeks from Newcastle and hiring a car. Both my wife and I have been to Corfu before(before we met with respective friends)but only to the busy places. Maturity has set in so thought we would visit a quiter place with our son. Hope all will be great- sounds like it from all reports. I would like to try and get in touch with the owner of these apartments but I cant find their number . Is there any air con in the rooms? my wife is worried about the bats situation so I gather it would be best to try and keep off the top floor?woody

Lol n need to worry about the bat situation. They only come out at night and you aren't aware of them because they flit out at such high speed. We only managed to catch one of camera because we sat there for about an hour and took and 50 photos lol. And then we were lucky hehe.

Anyway - as promised .....   

Building one...


Building two... (we were on the top floor of this one)


The sunset from our room....



Our balcony....



The pool (VERY early in the morning )



Pool bar in the day (and my hand)



And our messy kitchen....



We didn't get any proper pictures of the bedroom but they were a very good size. (3 single beds). There was Air con but it was on a pay as you go basis.

Hope these are helpful !!!

We stayed there some years ago, when there was a goat at the front. No pool etc. It was lovely. The bats aren`t a problem to people. The just scoot off out in the evening, and zoom back later.

Lozicle,

the photos are great thanks. cant wait to get there! it looks really clean. worried about the pool table for my son as I will never get him off!! I will have to practice before we go

how much was the air con? did you use it much? with the temperatures at the minute I cant imagine not using it.

i appreciate the time you have taken to add these for me and to allay some fears about the bats!your a star!
