Safety always
Each Active Pack guest is required to undertake our “Safety Chat”, which takes place on the 1st morning of your holiday, at the beach.

Safety on the water is of course our first priority. Fully qualified RYA instructors run the beach operation and are vigilant both on the beach, and on the water in our registered rescue craft with handheld VHF radios, always working to strict safety ratios and other proven guidelines. Mandatory buoyancy aids, restricted sailing areas, sign in/out and a compulsory “safety clinic” at the start of the week are just some of the many things we do and are included in both watersports memberships.
Who’s it for ?
BB’s take…
“Villa Club is great for all ages really . Dip in and out of the action at our members-only beach club and meet lots of other like-minded families. More independence with a self-catering villa for those who like to take advantage of spacious accommodation and your own pool. We can even have daily breakfast deliveries to your villa for a small supplement. Great club vibe for those who like to mingle also and the inclusive welcome drinks on the 1st evening always goes down well”.
Families
It’s amazing for families. We don’t run specific kids clubs or child care, however, our friendly beach team do all they can to get everyone on the water with group tuition sessions open to all ages and kids specific watersports sessions available through the week which get them making friends and having fun on the water.

Lixouri town, a short drive from the villa selection has lots of excellent tavernas, bakeries and cafes, all dotted around the town square.
Breakfast Delivery
Daily breakfast deliveries are available delivered to your villa for a supplement.
Lunch & Dinner is available to purchase at the beach club
Don’t expect drab international fare – at the Club, you can expect to taste an excellent variety of locally sourced and fresh ingredients, served at the club taverna which is open for lunch and dinner daily. From classic Greek kitchen dishes, seasonal salads and freshly grilled sardines, to a hearty club hamburger we will ensure that all dietary requirements are catered for as well as fussy eaters too!
Crisps, ice creams and a range of other snacks, plus a wide selection of drink and cocktails are available from the beach bar 11am – 6pm daily.
When it comes to drinks, Kefalonia has 48 varieties of grape grown locally, producing some very fine, internationally recognised wines worth trying, along with some fantastic Hellenic beers, there’s plenty to sample and enjoy and all are very reasonably priced.



In the local area
Here are some options to check out in the local area:
- A sunset meal at one of the best beaches in the Greek islands is also a must. Petani beach and tavernas. Only a 20 minute drive from our villas this place is incredible – get there early for a swim and settle down for a wonderful eating experience.
- Head into town and Lixouri square, 5 minutes drive from our villas or taxi (1 taxi for 4 people is ~€10 one way). A wonderful place to watch the world go by with countless cafes, tavernas and bars. Whatever you do, don’t miss the best ice cream in the world at “I-Scream” – it’s divine and we love it!
- Lepeda Beach – this taverna on the beach is, in our opinion, the best place to eat freshly prepared Greek food all day long.
- Apolafsi Complex – a local favourite serving delicious local and international dishes.
- Xi Beach – funky beach bars, water skiing and some great tavernas.
