Lefkas Blue Residence

Having looked at previous TA reviews, we felt confident we’d be happy here - and we have been. We’re Currently at Preveza airport awaiting our flight home, filled with memories of a very happy holiday. Eftisio & Marina made us feel very welcome, offering advice and information as required. The rooms, in a traditional style, were clean. Sheets & towels renewed every 3 days. We were in a 1-bedroom apartment with a Lovely balcony, overlooking the pool. Fridge/freezer, microwave and oven meant that we could cater for ourselves when we wanted to. There are plenty of supermarkets around, bakeries, butchers and greengrocers. The pool itself is stunning and the gardens well kept. Most days we had the pool almost to ourselves. It’s a very restful spot. We walked into town every day at some point - on average between 20-30 mins to the top end of the Main Street using the back roads. Lefkada Town is bigger than we’d anticipated, large sections are pedestrianised. It’s Well worth exploring the alleys and back streets. We walked to the beach - recommend this. Again the walk could take 20-30 mins, depending on route and where you wanted to get to. €8 for 2 sunbeds and a parasol. Loved watching the windsurfing and kitesurfing in the afternoons. The 5 windmills make a lovely view. I’ve submitted reviews for the restaurants we went to. We didn’t have a bad meal. We absolutely loved staying here and loved the area. Local people were super friendly and welcoming and we felt 100% safe at all times. We will certainly be back. A wonderful holiday in every respect. One tip - read Marinas confirmation email! I missed a key request to pay the balance in cash. ATMs are plentiful but rates are poor. Many of the shops & bars prefer cash, especially for smaller value spend. That said, we paid for all our meals on card without difficulty. And look out for the little boat trips just to the right of the wooden bridge on town, they offer trips to the beach near the castle (€5 per person, including beach mats & umbrella) and an evening Sunset trip (€6 per person). We did both, they were excellent. It’s a small business started this year. I’m sure they’d be grateful for your custom.
