So probably walking back from Arillas at night would be difficult then?

You can walk back along the road as long as you watch out for any cars which will probably be few and far between. The roads are not that busy. Not difficult at all as long you don't try the headland route. :)

is it hilly? and how long at moderate pace

It is a bit hilly on the way back from arrillas, if you push along moderately about a 30 min walk,
but I was younger, fitter, thinner then - not sure I'd want to do it on a full stomach and a few beers.

I thought Tassos in Captinas Apts, ran local Taxi's - I did use them in the past!! - anyone know the latest??

Not sure about taxis in Arillas but was always told if you needed one in SS they had to come from somewhere else which I thought was Sidari.

When we were in San Stef two years ago, there was a taxi operator in Arillas as we took one back on a hot Sunday afternoon having walked over. Walking by road is hilly coming out of Arillas and will take around 25 minutes, not too sure if I'd fancy walking back in the dark!

Where is your Avatar from. Mine was at the Sunset Taverna!

Avatar from Zakynthos last year, The Buca bar on the beach at Alikes. Alikes is a small quiet and friendly resort, just like San Stef. Cheers!
