Apollon was not my first choice for this trip. That hotel, however, was not finished in time, so I was asked whether this would do instead. The place isn’t really suitable for solo travellers. If you’re retired or are a young family, it’s perfect for both. In detail: The location is a bit awkward. It’s some way outside Lixouri, which is itself a bit of a challenge to reach from the rest of the island. There is a bus service of sorts, but it’s very sp****. I wouldn’t recommend walking along the narrow road, so that leaves the option of taking taxis or hiring a car or moped. Reception: courteous, efficient, well informed. Due to a delayed flight, I arrived way too late for dinner - so a snack had been placed in my room. That really is service. Accommodation: Also very nice - spacious and well appointed. There were a couple of things that required attention my first day, but they were taken care of within an hour of my reporting them. My cleaner did an excellent job, as did the laundry service. Amenities: The pool areas are large and well equipped. If the weather's nice though, be sure to get there early - the loungers go very fast! Food and drink: You won’t starve or go thirsty here! There are 2 bars, 2 snack bars, 2 a la carte restaurants, and the main restaurant, La Primavera, where meals are served as a buffet, but with servers on patrol to clear the tables and make sure you have something to drink. The servers there work very hard indeed. Most of them are also friendly, helpful, and attentive. The same was true of the bar staff at the Apollo, Asterias, and Delice bars. Not Medeo though. That apart, this was a generally positive experience, If you’re travelling alone, however, you might be better advised to find somewhere more central in Lixouri or even Argostoli.
