Having returned from yet another incredible trip to Greece, I thought I’d share with you some of our favourite places to eat from our latest spell in the South Ionian. This is by no means exhaustive – after all, we had just two weeks and were only able to visit a handful of different islands […]
The last day of a holiday can feel a little strange when your flight is not until late. We needed to allow plenty of our time to travel from Fiskardo in the north to Kefalonia’s airport in the south, but equally didn’t want to spend more time than necessary simply waiting in departures. With our […]
Some restaurants lure you with location. Others, with spectacle. And then there are those places that don’t need to shout, like Patio Dining. It sits, quietly self-assured, just one street back from the tourist tide in Vasiliki, and yet somehow at the very heart of the village’s culinary soul. Opened in 2019 by husband-and-wife duo […]
Built in 1846 and re-imagined in 2024, Lamda Casual Dining occupies a lovingly restored home with a sun-faded stone façade, situated directly at the water’s edge in the heart of Vasiliki. The history of the building is there for all to see but what’s happening there now is anything but old-fashioned. Instead, it’s a culinary […]
After a week of sailing around the South Ionian, we found ourselves spending a few days in Vasiliki in the south of the Greek island of Lefkada. This is a place that does watersports in style – it is not loud or lavish in the way some Mediterranean hotspots can be. Instead, there’s an understated […]
Some hotel names fade into the background, polite placeholders in a sea of beige branding. Elisso, however, lingers. The word means “whirl” in Greek — a fact that could feel contrived if it weren’t so perfectly apt. The hotel leans into the metaphor with panache: the swirling winds of Vasiliki Bay lure windsurfers from across […]
For one week this Summer, we were the captains of our own Greek adventure. With none of the usual household chores and without so much as opening my laptop, we simply enjoyed quality time together — and a generous stretch of Ionian blue. Welcome to the charming pleasures of a flotilla sailing holiday — courtesy […]
Working out which resorts are best suited for families isn’t always an easy task. We spoke to Florian and Lucinda from The Resorts Collection – experts on ultra-luxury in the Maldives – to find the best. As parents, you’ll naturally want your children to have the most amazing time on vacation, but it’s important that […]
The sixth largest island in Greece, and the biggest in the Ionian, Kefalonia has the drama of Corfu’s cliffs, the charm of Ithaca’s myths, and just enough modernity to stay connected — if you choose to be. And, just outside Argostoli in the south, close to the top of a hill crowned by the ruins […]
Located in the airport’s Non-Schengen area, this is the flagship lounge of AEGEAN’s growing ambitions — not just a resting spot, but a statement. Once you’ve meandered your way through the shops, following the business lounge signs, it opens at 5:00 am and runs until 1:00 am. It’s a lounge that cuts through the chaos […]
There are moments in travel — rare and oddly reassuring — when things may go off-script, yet leave you feeling more, not less, inclined to return. This was one of those moments. This year, AEGEAN Airlines quietly reinforced its role at the core of Greek aviation, stitching together the mainland and the islands with various […]
Imagine leaving the office for your next trip… the emails have been sent, the out-of-office is on and you’re ready for whatever adventures lie ahead. Travel nowadays is very different to how it was a a few decades ago – flights are faster and cities seemingly closer. But as the world seems to accelerate with […]
