Just back from 3 wonderful weeks in Arillas. We went independently this year and thanks to all the forum members for their help - recommendations for the Marina hotel,and thanks to Eileen for the phone number for Porto fino. We loved both places. Portofino has mosquito screens and we could sleep with the balcony doors open, drifting off to sleep and awakening to the sound of the sea was superb. The Marina has been refurbished to a very high standard, with TV, telephone, mini-fridge and tea and coffee making facilities. Probably worked out cheaper than a package deal. An absolutely fantastic holiday - my son wife and children went for the first time this year and are now also hooked!!
