The sheltered waters and calm conditions make sailing for beginners ideal. Novice or expert waterskiers and wakeboarders can make the most of the flat water throughout the day, with the premium package available for those who are really keen.

Also popular is the option of a pre-breakfast swim over to the island. For the more energetic, there is often a guided bike ride, fitball, gym and tennis sessions before the sun reaches its height.

One of the most popular activities is to take a kayak and explore the secluded coves surrounding the club. In the afternoon the sailing area extends beyond the island for intermediates to make the most of the breeze further out.

Alternatively, spend the day on one of our skippered day yachts or enjoy a 2 day flotilla taster experience and make the most of the breeze outside the bay whilst exploring secluded bays further up the coast. You could also choose to oin our 4 day Introduction to Yachting course and learn the skills required to sail a yacht in the Med.

As the sun dips in the sky, informal games of volleyball are organised, either in the pool or on the sand court. For those who prefer a gentler pace there is table tennis, boules or maybe a relaxing massage in the new spa before a pre-dinner cocktail.

First Neilson holiday - probably one of the best holidays you can take. Fantastic resort, though be prepared for steps. I was really impressed by the relentless enthusiasm of all the staff. We spent most of our time on the beach, where everyone was friendly and helpful. Special credit has to go to Simon, who led us through all our dinghy sessions, from beginners to winners. Excellent teacher, patient and amusing. Also Andy on the windsurfs, persistently up-beat, pulling us through our course. Thanks to everyone, will see you on the next holiday.

Sivota 31st May - 14th June 2009
This was our first Neilson holiday and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
On arrival at the hotel our luggage was taken to our rooms while we were invited to take a drink and a look round the grounds. After a very stressful journey with 3 children this was a very welcome surprise!!!
Our children, aged 9, 5 and 18 months absolutely loved the kids clubs. All the child care staff were dedicated to ensuring our children had a great holiday.
And whilst the children were busy in kids clubs we had such a fantastic time learning to ski, sail and windsurf. Once again the staff were wonderful, encouraging and completely dedicated.
Neilson definitely have it right - we can't wait to book for next year!

We spent a week in Sivota at the start of May and had a fantastic time. The resort is lovely, with great views (yes there are a million stairs but it's worth it), food was great and the enthusiasm of the instructors was brilliant (so much so that this is the first holiday where I haven't got through a book). We travelled with our 4 year old son and 7 month old daughter and the kids club facilities were fantastic.
