Holiday at the Lixouri beach club using the lovely Lazaratos Hotel where the food is excellent and the family team are super friendly. The beach team were fantastic with a fun and easy going attitude but also the best attention to safety I have seen at similar operation. There was always a safety boat on the water and Ben gave them an update whenever anyone launched. With a sign on and off the water a very well run and safe operation. Jake sorted the only issue I had and he along with all the rest of the instructors and team were great throughout the week. Would I go back? Yes due to the friendly relaxed vibe and great food at the Hotel. Perhaps I will go for a dinghy course next time.

A great week sailing, kayaking, windsurfing and paddle boarding. Tom, Ben and the team were very friendly and happy to help get our mixed ability group of 10 adults and teenagers onto the water. Highly recommend if you are looking for a family friendly activity holiday.

Excellent opportunity to learn windsurfing, sailing and, amazingly, foiling with a wing! You can also do kayaking and paddle boarding if you’re tired. All staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. They let you try it all in a very safe environment. Also every one seems to be quite laid back I felt that our safety has never been compromised. What could be helpful it is to have a WhatsApp group or other way of letting people know whether the beach is open or closed ( we had a couple of sessions missed due to a storm). It was difficult to plan the day and we had to come down to the beach to find out whether it is open ( we had to come back from another part of the island)

What an amazing holiday. Our kids 11 and 8 had an absolute blast learning to windsurf and sail. And I found an unexpected thrill in learing to wing surf. The beah team were absolutely incredible, in particular Ben who is simply fantastic at what he does. Amazing with the kids, great fun to be around. The hotel staff are super friendly and chat to you every day. Food is good. Accommodation was decent enough for the amount of time spent inside (next to none). We met a great group of people and socialising was made easy with beach bite nights and the pool bar. My biggest gripe would be that there's no toilet on the beach. Best holiday we've had in a long time. Highly recommended. Thank you Trek adventure!

A small, friendly and very helpful company. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, booking and information was easy and forthcoming and once in Kefalonia we found the hotel staff incredibly helpful and generous. The beach is sandy which can be rare for Greece and the beach staff great fun, brilliant with our kids who ranged from 13 to 15 giving instruction but also not being overly restrictive. The equipment was good and quickly repaired when anything broke. It was a great week and we will add it to our shortlist of locations for next year!

Our 2nd year at the fabulous Lazarotos Hotel with Trek, great watersports, staff, rooms, food (although would prefer it slightly warmer), beach, loungers, pool and stunning scenery. 10 euros each way in a taxi to Lixouri for good choice of restaurants, shops and the ferry to Argostoli. Beach bites is a must (didn’t happen last year due storms). The hotel family make you feel like part of their family. Thank you Kefalonia is a beautiful island with so many stunning beaches and towns to visit, staying for an extra week or so is recommended to explore further afield. Turtles in Argostoli and Petani beach sunset a must! We will be back, Thank you for another fabulous week.

Just had a fab holiday at Lixouri Bay (Lazaratos). The hotel staff were so friendly and welcoming and they were very keen to help in any way they could. The food was good and the lunch menu extensive and reasonably priced. The scenery is stunning. The beach team were friendly and knowledgeable, there was enough watersports equipment and it was in good condition. I personally had hoped for a wider variety of fitness classes though. Location - €10 taxi each way to the little town of Lixouri which had some lovely restaurants and shops. You can also get the ferry from there to the much larger town of Argostoli for €3. It’s also a good way to get to the airport (€25 in a taxi from Argostoli) if you don’t want to spend the hour transfer time by road. We had a really great holiday and would recommend it. Having done a number of previous holidays with one of the big companies, this represented great value for money.
