Hey Terry, that's my mate 'Bonzo'. Followed me all the way to St Stef and back one day.
Yammas,
Martin.

Ah Terry, it's lovely to know why my old mate Charlie from Thalassa loves Arillas! It is his home, after all. I am hoping that posts on this thread might persuade a few to at least investigate, or preferably visit for real next summer.

Thanks for your efforts.
Phil

Jill luvver, you can always get a lovely meal in Armourada, combined with a great welcome. And compared to the freezing mornings here last few days, it's a no brainer! And the sea is warm warm warm.... Beam me up Scottie!!!

We keep on going back because its the only place we know that we can just relax.We have been all over and always felt that we had to do tours of islands.Here we can be ourselfs and drink and eat without having another tour planned for the next day where we have to be up at the crack of dawn.Ilove arillis because my heart lifts when i see kaloudis and all the people in arillas.

Why oh why did I start reading this thread and watching Tony's and Martin's video slideshows?  I WANT TO BE THERE NOW!!!!

In the past whenever we went anywhere on holiday it would always take the first week before I even started to unwind.... with Arillas, I unwind as soon as I get there. (Hate travelling, so sorry I can't include that part in it) but - Arillas - its people, its wonderful welcome wherever you go, its food, its scenery, its visitors who become friends - can't praise it highly enough!


Love to all

I met Eleni who runs Irene's Villa Lux Apatments just up from Brouklis, for the first time this October whilst ferrying a bottle of vodka from Alex Supermarket to Jen at Brouklis. (I was going to share it with her before you ask... Whether I did is another story!) Eleni was talking to Dimitris just outside Brouklis.

Dimitris knew that I knew Eleni already from the forum posts. She was quite surprised at that, but since then we have shared personal messages, continuing our worries about the future of the place we all seem to assume will be the same forever. Her views are really worth reading. She is wobbling about posting them in case she is a "fly in the milk." No pressure luvver, but we all want to hear what you want to say to us. Fly in the milk? You are the milk. Definitely not a fly. Speak to us luvver if you're reading this.

This is a marvelous thread to get us all through the winter months ahead.  Or maybe it will torture us cos we can`t be there quicker than next season.
Enjoyed the slideshow and videos.
As to why we keep returning, I think everything has been said.
Roll on June 20 2011!!!

Think this if going to be the longest winter ever but I'm sure all the photos and videos will help us through it.

This is where we all belong and hopefully the photos will show why we love it so much

(If you have a slow internet connection, like me, its best set one 240p instead of 480p - see settings at bottom of video)

The song is from the new Ray Davies CD called "See My Friends"

Terry that was just wonderful.
The Ray Davies song is now my new Arillas anthem.

We can't answer this question really as we have only been the once to Arillas. So why are we returning next May.

Because we fell in love with the whole package that is Arillas.
