Why Not Try Arillas?

If like me you were afraid of trying another resort for fear of missing the Kalami affect then bite the bullet and try Arillas on the west coast.
Arillas has loads of charm and many walks both locally and to neighbouring resorts. An added bonus is the sunsets which are as good as the Caribbean.
You will also be amazed at how much further your money goes. I would say that you can save roughly a third on north east coast prices.
I'm lucky enough to get to the Kalami area once a year but Arillas has been a lovely surprise to find after 20 years on the north east coast, and it is still Corfu.

We also love Kalami, but have moved on to Kassiopi, mainly because of the costs in tavernas. Have looked at Arillas, looks lovely, would things be open in May as that is when we go. Thanks Ann x

Hi Ann,

We plan to visit for a day next June.

Hi Ann, 

Here is a link to the latest Arillas map...

Ann, I think Ellie describes it perfectly when she says despite it being her nearest resort she hasn't been to all the restaurants in Arillas. It really does have a good choice for a resort of it's size - too many to visit in one holiday.

There are places for the 'budget' days, a good number of 'in-betweenies' and a few 'tad more expensives' for treat nights. I love them all!

If you are a fish lover you must visit Thomas's (Vavilas), but be warned you do have to book as it's very popular...and not expensive either.

Eftihia is on the seafront, but set back unassumingly and almost very shyly in it's own gardens - but don't miss it. It's a gem of a place whether for a lazy lunch, or an evening meal whilst watching the sunset. Definitely my favourite place for lunch, wine and a long lazy read of a book...there's just something about Efi's that makes you linger.

After all this talk of food I'm glad I've a stifado in the oven

Thanks all for your help x
