I have just returned from the most amazing time at the Lixouri Beach Club… what a great team, professional and enthusiastic,every level catered for and the well being classes were the best I’ve experienced. The hotel staff too were fabulous and the food was to such a high standard from a family run hotel .. it was on whole a perfect trip .

The Stira Bay resort staff went out of their way to be helpful, enthusiastic, and really got to know the guests in this fairly small resort. I thought the sailing instruction was excellent, and gave me the confidence to set sail in some fairly strong winds. I thought the overall package was good value, and I liked the small, family run hotel atmosphere.

Beyond Beach offers great value Flotilla holidays with well maintained yachts, despite their age, and great staff who go above and beyond to ensure customers have a safe and enjoyable holiday. We very much enjoyed the Lixouri beach club as a second week add on for relaxing, great food and using the sailing/cycling/yoga on offer.

We have just returned from a super week’s stay in Lixouri Bay. I had been looking for something similar to a Nielsen holiday, but on a smaller scale and with a more personal feel, although I didn’t think such a place could exist and still provide a good range of water sports options. I was wrong! I was so pleased to find BeyondBeach existed, and booked for a family of 5 (all adults) for June. The week we chose, between half term and the start of the summer holidays was exceptionally quiet, but the upside was we could choose whatever water sport we wanted, when we wanted it, and we took full advantage! Mornings started with beautiful flat water - ideal for our daily 1km wild swims, SUP yoga or paddle boarding and kayaking - with the bonus of seeing turtles and dolphins! The wind usually picked up well as the day progressed and we had a Topaz regatta and a Quest and CAT mini sailaway. The beach staff were a lovely helpful young group. Accommodation-wise the rooms were modern, spacious and very clean. The hotel’s main dining area had lovely views of the bay and the food was delicious (if a little repetitive). The lunch snacks/meals were really good with lots of options (useful with gluten free/ diary free/non-meat eaters in our family!). The location was a little remote, and as a family of 5 we always needed two taxis, but it was easy enough to get to town or across to Argostoli. My husband and I would defintely consider another BeyondBeach week. Thank you!

Went in June. Hotel and Beach team were really great. Loved the morning stretch sessions and guided bike rides up to the village for coffee cake ! Thanks Ben. Had some great cat blasts (thanks team) and got to grips with winging (nearly !) Rooms are nice & clean with really large balconies and stunning sea views. Be back for sure. thanks...

My family and I recently stayed at Stira Bay Beach Club. Following a super easy transfer from Athens, we were greeted by a helpful and friendly staff that really cared we had the best holiday.... Activities were spot on and were well managed depending on the daily conditions by the instructors. They were brilliant at coaching the kids along... Food was likewise excellent - sunset BBQs being a particular highlight! Finally, accommodation had beautiful sea (and sunset!) views. Great setup, great team. Thanks for having us!

I recently came back from a trip to Stira Bay. We had such a fantastic week! The location of the hotel is stunning, with amazing sunsets, a fantastic pool, and plenty of different areas to relax. The watersports and activities were great, with plenty of choice and plenty of very smiley, enthusiastic, and encouraging instructors to help. The selection of windsurfing & winging kit was very good, and the Laser dinghies were great fun when the wind was stronger. We used the bikes to explore the local area, and I must they the bikes were great! A big thanks to Michelle, George, and the rest of the BeyondBeach team, we will be back!

Myself and my wife have just finished our first flotilla lead by Paul and Rory. It was an amazing experience and I’d recommend it to anyone. Paul and Rory were fantastic. Always delivering great briefings in the mornings and always incredible helping us to moor up for the evenings. There were also always on hand to help with any questions we had which made us feel very safe and really helped our confidence grow. We will definitely be returning next year!!! Thanks again to everyone at beyond beach, especially Paul and Rory!!!!!

Our family, including our two granddaughters aged 5 and 3 had an EXCEPTIONAL, holiday at Stira Bay. A great variety of good kit for everyone wanting to go on the water and to cycle. Something for everyone. The staff were incredible with so much enthusiasm and energy, going out of their way to maximise the activities that we could do and adapted, as much as they were able to, to ensure that the girls could also join in the fun - which is what it was from beginning to end. Simply amazing. The whole feeling with this place and in this bijou hotel is one of intimacy but there is also plenty of space, it is very well laid out and picturesque. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. It was one of our delights to be able to explore the local Tavernas and enjoy wonderful Greek food, especially seafood. The town doesn’t wake up properly though until June, so it was very quiet during the May half term, not all Tavernas were open but we still had plenty of choice. Thank you also to the UK team for assisting us with the booking and for being so responsive and helpful. We had such a fabulous holiday that we are already looking to go again!

My family recently had a fantastic week on Evia Island with Beyond Beach. The Beyond Beach team were brilliant and we had a great time dinghy (and mini cat) sailing and wind surfing. The Venus Hotel at Stira Bay Beach Club was excellent – great accommodation and delicious food and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We will definitely book a holiday with Beyond Beach again.

I've just returned from a 2 week holiday at BeyondBeach's Lixouri site and had the best windsurfing, sailing, and wing foiling instruction and experience of my life! It was even better than the first time I went. If you are into or want to learn these sailing and wind/wing sports I highly recommend BeyondBeach. The sun, hotel, food, people, and service are unbeatable.

A fun week with Michelle and her team at Stira Beach. Brilliant beach team, lots of activities, great vibe, lovely food at Taverna Lefka, very clean rooms with sea view. Kids (14&15) made good friends and ditched their boring parents to play uno by the pool! A really great week. We will be back.
