Another fantastic week with BeyondBeach at Lixouri Bay Beach Club, Kefalonia. BeyondBeach works perfectly for me and my husband: Whilst I just want to sit, relax and enjoy a good book and occasionally take a swim or head out on a paddle board (but never pressured by staff to join in or get out on the water), my husband can enjoy all the watersports activities to his hearts content. The Greek hotel staff welcome you like family from the get go and the watersports team are always friendly and professional - nothing is ever too much trouble. It was really lovely to have the Healthy Options included as part of the package this time around. As a holiday option it works brilliantly and I can’t recommend it highly enough! Top tip: Hire a car. Kefalonia is well worth exploring!

Just had a great family holiday week at the Lixouri Bay, Kefalonia. The hotel, the beach club, the greek food, the location, the activities and activity kit, and most of all the staff, were all fantastic. And the weather also played ball - with glorious sunshine and winds from dead calm (to allow turtle-spotting from SUPs), to "brisk" (so our windsurf-mad Son could improve his technique). The icing on the cake was being able to take the road bikes out to go exploring: from finding the turtle nesting area at Vatsa Beach, to the hairpin descent to the stunning Petani Beach.

I had an amazing holiday with Beyond Beach. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The watersports team were exceptional and really went out of their way to help you enjoy the water activities. You can see they have a genuine passion for water sports. The sailaway, a sail to an another beach, was literally awesome as we had good winds. Flyn, my wing board instructor was fantastic and he has got me hooked on winging. I am so grateful for his patience and encouragement. Finley, Charlotte, Ben and Hugo were also great. The regatta was exciting and a fun way to end the week. Saw several turtles whilst paddleboarding. The beach and bay are lovely. Big thanks to all of the team for making the week so enjoyable and special

Had the BEST time with these guys! As a total beginner it was amazing to have a go at so many water sports and sailing - the staff were all super friendly and supportive and the hotel was clean, comfy and great food. Special thanks to Hugo and Nell for instantly making me feel welcome, and to Flynn and Finlay for getting me solo dinghy sailing for the first time! Had a wonderful flotilla sail on a catamaran with Bertie! The equipment was so good and the setting is amazing, sandy beach, shallow warm waters and just the right mix of calm days for SUP and windy days for sailing and wing surfing. I’ll definitely be back! Loved it ❤️❤️❤️

My sons (10 & 15) and I had the most fabulous week at Lixouri. Friendships were made, skills learnt, a love for watersports discovered, plenty of laughter and relaxation ! So many boxes were ticked for us and I absolutely understand why guests return, we too are hopeful for next year

The outstanding feature of Beyond Beach in Kefalonia is the Greek family welcome of the Lazaratos hotel which flows down from the brothers and cousins there to the young beach staff and management. The beach ‘vibe’ is laid back, casual, unspoiled but the staff are very willing and professional. It’s all about enjoying the natural beauty (landscape, weather and humans).

Just back from a very relaxing week in Lixouri. Both the staff at the family run hotel and the Beyond Beach staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. The enthusiasm of the instructors was fantastic. Between the 4 of us we paddle boarded; cycled; swum; kayaked sailed and windsurfed. I also did daily yoga classes with the lovely Nell. There was no pressure to do anything, but it was very nice just being able to use any equipment as and when you wanted to. Food at the hotel was fantastic, and we also went into Lixouri, which is 5 minute taxi ride away, for a few meals. Would highly recommend Beyond Beach and will probably use them again.
