Welcome to paradise Angela, many locals seem to pronounce it ......
A-real-as, but most people just say it as it's spelt.
To all the return visitors it's 'home'. You will adore this little village if you like peace and tranquility, good food, music loud or quiet, a beautiful beach, but most of all a wonderful welcome from the most genuine hosts you will ever meet on your travels.
Where are you thinking of staying when you come?
