General Comments

Eriva Apartments are lovely. They are situated in an excellent location between the main street and the beach. The owners are lovely and we regarded them as friends when it was time to come home. Our apartment was very spacious, although I do believe some of them can be quite small. The pool/bar area is excellent. Plenty of loungers and good snacks on offer throughout the day. [although some guests were guilty of sneaking down and putting their towels out]. The beach, although not the prettiest, serves its purpose. Quite pebbly in sections - but again plenty of loungers, and very safe for children as it gently slopes into the sea. Plenty of bars and cafes along the beach front, and most charge around 6 Euros for 2 loungers and a parasol. The main street is choked with good eating places and bars. We liked Yannis, situated next to The Panda Bar, just off the main street - heading into the old town. The Pump House was good too. The Mythos Bar on the main street was lovely and Fengelis, our barman was one of the nicest men you could hope to meet. Only complaint was the amount of times they changed the towels - very infrequently! One large towel and two hand towels are the norm as the Greeks think it is more hygenic to use small towels. Shower curtains are also rare - although we did have one. The Greeks believe they are also unhygenic. The main supermarket on the corner as you come up from the Eriva is handy although the assistants have to be the most dour and rude we have ever come across! Mosquitos are a problem so please spray yourself liberally before heading out, and don't make the mistake that they only come out at night! Their bite can be fairly nasty - especially for children. Woodys on the beach do a mean breakfast. [especially after too much Ouzo]. Make allowances, relax and enjoy the Eriva - it really is a wee gem.

    Carol and I (Dave) stayed at these apartments in May 2000. We really enjoyed it, especially the location and the fact that we met some lovely people, known to us as Nan and Ian, they were scottish, from East Kilbride I think. If they are reading this please email me at kerkira@webtec.net.au as we would love to hear from you. Remember, we had many laughs together. Regards Dave & Carol from Australia.
