“Just got back from my third sailing holiday in 3 years with Beyond Beach and have already booked next years trip. That’s should give anyone an idea of what I think of Beyond Beach, their staff and the experience they provide. If you are tempted, just commit, you won’t regret it!”

“We had an excellent holiday with Beyond Beach doing the ICC sailing qualification. From the outset, office staff were helpful and efficient. We found our sail training team were helpful, friendly and knew their job and the boats were well equipped and good to sail. Even though the course included an exam it was a relaxed week and gave us renewed confidence. Lixouri is a little gem of a town in a safe sailing area. The holiday compared favourably to other companies in terms of cost. It was all very good and I will be recommending BB to my friends.”

“Learn to sail week. Easy booking, very good communication prior to departure and on arrival day, welcome pack on board of cleaning products/bag of crisps much appreciated. Lots of helpful information about local shops good value restaurants and recommended locations enabled us to settle in very quickly. Knowledgeable and friendly trainers. All very well organised and a very good balance of learning versus holiday time. Thoroughly enjoyed and recommended.”

“We had an amazing week at Stira Bay Beach Club and I honestly cannot wait to rebook. The staff were fantastic from start to finish. Mia was brilliant with the younger guests, Flynn brought great energy every single day, and Ollie was a great guide on the morning paddle - one of our favourite parts of the trip. The hotel itself was gorgeous and the setting was just incredible - the kind of place that instantly makes you feel relaxed. The BBQs were delicious! And the food available at the pool bar and Taverna meant we never went hungry. The conditions throughout the week were great for all sports and abilities. Whether you were just starting out or more experienced, there was always something to do. The equipment available was top-notch and well maintained. One of our party had some fantastic bike rides with Ben and couldn’t speak more highly of the experience. We also took time to explore the local area and really enjoyed the nearby town. A highlight was a fantastic dinner in “old” Styra – full of charm and amazing food. When we weren’t out on the water or getting active, we loved lounging around the pool between activities. It was the perfect balance of action and relaxation, and there was genuinely something for everyone. I’ve seen some negative reviews mentioning the wind, but honestly, that feels a bit unfair. It’s like going skiing and complaining that the lifts are shut due to too much snow. It’s part of being in nature, and it didn’t take away from our experience at all. We’ve travelled with Neilson before but found Beyond Beach to be so much more personal. We loved that everything was on a smaller scale – it meant we got to know the staff and they got to know us, which made for a much better and more meaningful experience. We don’t usually go back to the same place twice, but this is going to be the exception. We had an incredible time and can’t wait to return.”

“This is our first flotilla holiday for several years after bareboating. We felt that as a holiday it ticked all the boxes one ease of booking customer care throughout the process and being always fully informed. However the actual sailing trip was even better with Paul and Rory nailing the week in the Ionian. We have sailed there twice before but Paul still found new overnight stops and inventive ways of rafting, Kalamos can be difficult. We would happily recommend the holiday and be pleased to sail with those guys who were always positive and supportive. Thanks”

“My husband and I stayed at Stira Bay the week after the June half-term holiday and what a fabulous week we had! We’ve previously had a couple of family Seatrek holidays over the years, based at Paliki Beach Club in Kefalonia (which we absolutely loved) so although we knew the vibe to expect from the holiday we were a little nervous about whether Stira Bay could live up to all those happy memories… It absolutely did. Stira Bay exceeded our expectations. The family run hotel has three beaches to choose from and a beautiful infinity pool with plenty of shade available for when we weren’t on the water. The week we were there, the wind was ideal, building up from calm mornings for paddle-boarding to gentle winds by lunchtime and then picking up slightly in the afternoon. It also increased day by day so as our rusty windsurfing skills got polished off, each day became more challenging and really good fun! We loved sailing the cats in the higher winds too. The Beyond Beach staff were super helpful and friendly, pro-actively chatting with clients and offering advice and suggestions about the wide range of activities on offer. As for the hotel itself, our room was spotless and had a lovely sea view, the lunchtime taverna food was delicious and the sunsets were simply stunning. At the end of the week, the return transfer was efficiently organised for us and worked perfectly. So all in all, a resounding success! Thank you to everyone on the Beyond Beach team, we loved our holiday and we’re considering coming back in September!”

“Just spent a fantastic week in Kefalonia with Beyond Beach and Blitz Fitness at Lazaratos Hotel in Lixouri. My fifth visit and I’ll be back for sure. Expert tuition in all water sports, I even stood up on a wing foil after one training session, the yoga was sublime. Hugo, Nel, Ben, Dexter, Dylan and Fin etc such a fun loving, enthusiastic and knowledgeable bunch. The Blitz Fitness sessions of circuits and Pilates excellently planned and led by Karen and Melisa. Amazing facilities at the hotel, such a wonderful welcoming family, delicious food and nothing is too much for them. Hard recommend!”
