| said: Honeymooners. You were lucky. Our third visit was in 2006 and the attitude of the owner was diabolical.
He upset a few people while we were there (they could not believe we were on our third visit).
He has very strict rules for the pool area, which are fine if you are a couple of over 50's with no kids, and was very moody.
If you were content to spend your whole evening at the bar he was really friendly. If you wanted a late drink, after going into town, his attitude was very different. We returned because the previous years he was fine but last year was awful. Think he gets fed up sat in the bar on an evening on his own then gets annoyed when people come back late expecting to drink til the early hours. Understandable, I suppose, but maybe he should just open the bar durng the day or close at midnight.

| said: We chose the Irini because of the pool and bar area.
The pool is spotlessly clean and the studios are cleaned most days, although we never had enough toilet paper or towels (1 medium sized towel each).
The studios are a good 20 minute walk into town (taxi 4 euros). We found the location very noisy because it was on the main road out of Parga (traffic noise was constant and started very early in the morning).
The pool was open during the day for snacks and there are several notices around the pool stating no inflatables, no food, no diving, the list goes on and on. One day a couple of children (aged about 7 and 8) took their lilo into the pool. The reaction of the owner had to be seen to be believed. Five minutes later, another child took an inflatable into the pool and he was fine about it. Explain that to the other children.
The bar opens in the evening and we went back a few times during our first week to be greeted with shrugged shoulders, eyes raised to heaven, and when one of our group tried, in vain, to make conversation, he turned his back. I think the owner needs to clarify the opening times of the bar, and be a bit more tolerant towards children (or remove the triple studios so he can only accommodate couples).
Someone on another site likened the Irini to a 'boot camp'.

| said: Having stayed at the Irini previously during 2004 I returned with my husband for our honeymoon. Christos and his family could not have been more helpful, pleasant and accommodating.
Everywhere was spotless, with Christos out cleaning the pool at 8am every morning. The friday night BBQ was a great fun night with more food than you could eat and at a very reasonable price including wine/beer.
The brochure warned of a walk to town and it was a fair distance but pleasant.
Personally I would recommend anyone to give the Irini a try - if you can get a room as I found it books up very very quickly.
