Holidays in Arilas

Holidays in Arilas. Leave life as you know it behind.

Tucked between two green headlands, Arilas feels pleasantly cut off from the outside world. Forget the bleeps and buzzes that dictate your everyday life. Here, it's the sun that wakes you. It's the sounds of the sea and laughter that call you down to the shore. And it's the glorious sunsets that will tell you when it's time find a spot on a terrace and enjoy a cool beer. Arilas holidays equal ultra-relaxation.

Tranquil Arilas is a picture postcard of authentic Corfu. Flower draped streets, pastel houses and the obligatory friendly dog having a wander. Seven minimarkets, a few bars and several tavernas. The few hotels here have that friendly touch – like the family run Kaloudis Village Apartments. Arilas's long beach of golden sand and shingle is the centre of activity – which includes sunbathing, swimming and splashing around. The shallow waters are great for kids or for that first time canoeing or windsurfing.

Hop on a horse to go trekking into rural Corfu. Jump in a dingy to deserted Gravia Island, home to sheep and secluded beaches. Walk along the coast to Agios Stefanos or Agios Georgios. Don't miss Paleokastritsa, a spot famed beyond Corfu for its natural beauty, exclusive marina and ancient monastery.

When it comes to evening entertainment, you can't beat the sunsets here - make sure you're settled in at a seafront bar to drink it in. Then how about a flavour of Corfu proper, at Brouklis – a taverna so good the locals love it. Let the ouzo flow! Yiamas!
