Hi We have not been to San Stefanos before in fact we have only been to Corfu once and that was to Agios Gordios in the South. Could you tell me please which is the nicest San Stefanos or Arillas as I know they are close to each other. Dont really know the layout of either or their size but from what I gather they both seem small. We just want somewhere quiet with a nice beach and local tavernas to eat in at night. We normaly go Self Catering so any help on apartments would be helpful as we usually put the holiday together ourselves. As it will be our first vist we want to make sure we chose the right one.  Thanks a lot for any help.

Hi Merlin40 and welcome to the forum.
We can only tell you our preferences which is for San Stefanos.

Arillas is also a nice village with a thin strip of beach, but nice accommodation & Pools, more on the flat generally than S S!
Arillas has some good Tavernas. You can walk between the two places quite easily, but it's a hilly route!

San Stef, is great, but has some apartments up the hills, which give fantastic views, but you do have the uphill walk each day!
Plenty to choose from on the flat as well, depends how fit you are!!! San Stefanos is VERY friendly as a resort.

The Beach in San Stefanos (S S) is great, big and golden sand, lots of room for everyone, can't be beaten!
Tavernas' in S S are all pretty good - no bad ones anywhere! In fact they range from Really excellent to very good!!
Enough to do at night with some live acts or music, or a quiet night in one of the Bars!
If you surf the postings here you will find lots of different contact details.

Hi Merlin and welcome to the lovely SS San Stef. If you want to read an objective and rational review you can read mine on Holidays Uncovered following my visit this year, two nice resorts indeed, however I dont think I'm wrong in saying that the good and well meaning folk that post here arent er a little one eyed? but full of very good information when being informative...the puns are crap tho ;D

Hi thanks to you both for the info.  It really sounds lovely.  Have had a look at Christina and Anatoli Apartments so any info on either of those would be good.  I did see a map somewhere with the location of all the hotels on but cant find it again so if anyone knows where it is I would be gratefull as it would be nice to see where these two are.  Thanks once again

Hi Merlin40
I am sure that after reading TonyCo1 and Zimmers postings you will be slightly confused.I will attempt to clarify things for you.
If you were looking for an hotel on say Trip Advisor and found one with the following reviews.
99 excellent.
1   terrible.
Would you book it. Of course you would.Especially when their is a good chance the terrible review came from Zimmer.
The same applies to San stephanos.For every 99 excellent reviews you get 1 Zimmer review.
Who is to say he is wrong but i would always tend to put more faith in the vast majority.
