Just got back from the nafiska and can strongly recommend it there were 4 of us 2 adults and 2 children aged 10 and 7 the girls loved it nice pool nice walk to the beach as you did pool then beach etc, food was good and hosts jimmy and spiros fantastic with the kids although you do get some noise not loud kids will fall a sleep quite easily whilst we enjoyed a drink on the balcony. the apartments themselves are quite large 2 bedroms sitting area with tv, kitchen area although kitted out with cooking equipment never used except kettle, bathroom basic but does have a hairdryer.
just booked up for next year going in august found deal on t/c for 1342.80 for fornight although it is night flights  and booked 4 adults and not 2 adults 2 children as this bumps it up another 250

We have just rebooked for 2010 after a wonderful 2 weeks at the Rainbow. We went online to Thomas Cook and printed off their offer then took it to our local Travel Agent and asked them to match the price.They gave us  a better price for the same holiday plus we were able to ask for our preferences i.e. top floor, ground floor or whatever. I know that's not guarenteed but you don't seem to get that option direct on line. Also is it only Bristol flights that give 15kg baggage allowance, talking to other people who flew from other airports and they seemed to have 20kg. Any way now counting down all over again to September. 49 weeks

Today Finnmatkat published their programme for the summer of 2010, and Arillas was not on their list. I have already emailed them a letter of protest.

Might keep the prices down for our Finnish friends though Sandy. Popular = Pricey?

Mind you, our erja has the same issues as us lot here in South UK.

Moi? Credit card poised for the EasyJet announcements at the end of this month....

love
Phil

Well Heidi is just about to book her flights from Finland with Finnmatkat for next year. They might not come to Arillas but they fly to Corfu which is the vital thing for our holiday plans :)

I am hovering with my Cred card at the ready with easyjet so almost booked for 2010 ;)
Life is good ;)

I agree, true Addicts will find a way to return to Arillas. Not everybody, however, will be able to cope with the extra cost this might involve. But Arillas also needs newcomers, and one thing is for sure: there will be few, if any, new Arillas Addicts from Finland, which is sad.

Staying in Arillas is getting more expensive every year, we have booked @ the Mirage again for our 6th visit August 2010 & happy to say again we out foxed Thomas crook. As we are a family of 3 (2 adults & 1 Child) they charge £1400+ for 2 weeks SC but if we book for 3 adults the same 2 weeks £1069!!!!!! the travel agent we booked through say they do this practice often as putting children on your form adds £200+ BECAUSE they are kids what a rip! As date of births are not given & not on the tickets no problem........Helpfull if any of you guys want to save a few squid :)
