Hi rachaelb - I enjoyed reading that, as we are going to Lassi in 3 weeks time. Thanks for taking the time to write it. If you get a chance, perhaps you could post a review of the hotel and resort in the review section on here.

Ha, I really enjoyed reading that too, I was almost there for a minute .... instead of in work ..... on nights!!!

Glad you enjoyed your holiday in Kefalonia. We went there on our honeymoon and as I had a bad leg at the time, OH bit the bullet and hired a car. What a fantastic island it is. As you say, Skala is a bit too British, but the beach is great, big enough to get your own patch early in the season. I would recommend that anyone brave enough should rent a car as you are missing a treat if you stay on resort. Just one thing.....if you see a sign on the road for a beach, please be careful as the roads tend to run out and by the time they do it's too late to change your mind and turn around, you need to be a confident driver as the sheer drops and very steep tracks and shingle make for a hair-raising drive....especially if you meet someone coming the other way! The beaches are great when you get there though. We had a Toyota Yaris which had no business being on those tracks even though it coped really well...as I said, you don't realise till it's too late....but I would have to recommend a four wheel drive.

No holiday this year due to circumstances, but this is one of the few Islands we would like to make a return visit to.
