Dionysos Village Resort is a fantastic place to stay for a holiday. The views are absolutely fantastic, mainly due to it being on a large hillside. Contrary to past reviews, air conditioning is now included and they no longer charge to use it in the room. Every single staff member we met was friendly, smiley and talkative which really added to the experience. The bar is very well priced, €4-5 for a pint or bottle of beer, €7 for a ‘classic’ cocktail and €10 for a ‘premium’ cocktail. Happy hour was from 18:00-20:00 every day where the drinks are cheaper! The food from the bar’s kitchen was really nice too, highly recommend the salads or the traditional greek dishes! They serve lunch and dinner from there next to the pool. Breakfast finishes at 10am every day and is located in the canteen overlooking the pool, selection was decent with eggs, bacon, sausages, toast with jam/marmalade, fruit selection, pastries, ham & cheese, etc.
The hotel is in a good location if you use taxi’s or hire a car. I wouldn’t recommend walking up OR down the hill(s) during the day as it’s simply too hot in peak season. The taxis are very well priced, generally being €7 for any trip to Lassi, €8 to anywhere in Argostoli town, etc. Keep in mind the taxis are cash only. The closest ATM is near the supermarket (Mina) at the bottom of the hill, it charges €3.95 for each withdrawal.
The beach at the bottom of the hill (Makris Gialos) is beautiful and the sunbeds in front of Costa Costa are great!
