We have been to the Ionion two times and found it to be a very easy location. A lot simpler than the BVI's for instance. The only thing you have to learn is the stern to anchoring. I would recommend some sort of flottila. If you like you can be on your own; the advantage is that you have a briefing each morning and normally someone with a dingy will help you anchoring if you run into (small) problems. We sailed there end august/beginning september and found winds to be below 10 knots or above 25 knots. All islands are within easy reach; the longest crossing takes no more than one hour.
