We booked directly through Simply Travel, as our previous experience with them (10 years ago) was so good. We were not disappointed this year. We've been to other Ionian Islands before; Cephalonia, Ithaca and Corfu previously and Zakynthos, compares very favourably, if a... more

Having spent holidays in cramped and frankly tatty apartments on other Greek Islands, we were absolutely delighted with the standard of Aresti Villa Illia. The decor was beautiful and the standard of cleaning impeccable. I agree with some of the other reviewers that, if... more

An awful booking service. I booked one villa - to then find it was double booked, then another to find the same. In total this happened three times - I wish good luck to anyone who finally manages to get to the Villas - but be expected to go through hell on the booking process. Get confirmation in writing before you book. Nightmare
