It just goes to show - after all our time in Arillas there are still so many places and people for us to go and see. We have spent an hour in Akti so far (and were welcomed like neighbours) and discovered that he is Olga's nephew. We were staying at Olga's Elena Stella.

Akti is a great place to stay, and the new additions this year are superb. We just wish we could stay EVERYWHERE.

we stayed at the akti in june, martin wasn't keen, he likes to do self catering (well he would, it's me that does the catering!!) he is now a convert, we will be back in june, just as soon as he can sort the time off work!!
kostas, spiros, monika, the food, the fabulously comfortable rooms, the pool.............the list is endless, but don't tell too many people, we might not be able to get in!!!!!

Hey Ger,

Haven't heard from you in a wee while. I didn't realise that's where you stayed in June?
Christian & I stayed there in Sept 07 & really enjoyed it - although that was before the new pool.
I've heard SO many people raving about it on the Forum this year, it's certainly somewhere we would consider staying at again.

After our disasterous stay at the AB.......not going there in this message :-) we were moved to the Akti. It was like walking into a hotel run by your best friends, who also wrote the good hotel guide and could give Gordon Ramsay a run for his money with the food. Faultless hotel, staff...everything. If you have booked the Akti for 2009, then you are lucky people indeed.

That's exactly how we felt Gazcaz and why we've already booked for next may/june!

Just the flights to sort now.

Lucky you Sharon. Like many others we have never done the hotel stay in Greece before. It was a decision for us between the Akti and the AB last summer and we chose the AB because it was SC and was rated higher with TC. Carolyns parents chose the Akti because the AB was full and said it was great. We arrived a few weeks later and went to the AB. After our terrible time at the AB, TC moved us to the Akti and the whole family made us so welcome from second one and for the whole week we had the pleasure of being there. Monika made us pack lunch sanwiches the day we hired a boat and the rooms were wonderful. If you forgot (drunk) to pay your bar bill at 2am, it was no trouble, though best pay it in the morning coz if you went back down you were trapped for another drink :-) Such utterly delightful people and they all work so hard. Its Crete for us in 2009, but our next visit to Arillas will be the Akti, availability permitting.
