A similar 'package' with competitors of Beyond beach are substantially moire expensive. All extremely well organised. Very responsive to enquiries and alterations to plans. The hotel itself was excellent as was the food. The watersports was well equipped with lessons and kit. I didn't make use of the bikes or tennis. The staff were just outstanding. They could not do enough to help and make you feel welcome. Highly recommend Beyond beach.

Our second trip with this company and every bit as good as the first. The staff are amazing, the hotel comfortable and friendly and great equipment available to take out during the day. If you want an active holiday with teenage kids I couldn’t recommend more highly.

Beyond Beach are beyond fabulous We tried the new club at Stira Bay which exceeded expectations. Wall to wall sunshine and wind kept us cool and busy on and off the water; perfecting our dingy sailing and windsurfing, getting better on the wing - well one of us was! The hotel and facilities are superb with infinity pool, cute bungalow accommodation daily housekeeping and private balconies all overlooking the panoramic sunsets . The package with BB includes huge range of buffet breakfast items that powered us through the day, inclusive evening meals feature a BBQ on the beach to bond as much or as little with other guests as you like (we are temperate joiner’s inners). Unfortunately as a vegan and pescatarian we threw a spanner in the works but extra veggie options were prepared. The BB team all appear to have their own expertise that they share in formal and informal coaching sessions. It was really windy during our holiday which made us push ourselves and master new things. We also enjoyed the non wind sports like PT led workouts, runs, wild swims and mountain bike sessions. The nearby towns of old and new Styra offered a wide selection of delicious eating places, a 20 min walk or €5 taxi. we didn’t try all! We’ve definitely turned our back on self led water sports holidays now we’ve had the VIP beyond beach experience!

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.

What an AMAZING week! Theirs is plenty for everyone to do at the Beach Club, the hotel is fantastic with an infinity pool looking out over the amazing sunsets! The food at the BBQs was amazing, the local Tavernas were just superb… and so reasonable! I manager to get up on the foil (just about) that’s to Flynn’s instruction. The whole team were amamzing and super helpful. We will be back! Thanks so much
