sorry, cant comment on the fare but it takes about 25-30 minutes without traffic. dont go on the highway, but head straight south from the airport.
vouliagmeni has plenty of places to eat. our favourite was zaxos grill who also does takeaway. greek grill stuff, fast service, good food, cheap. across from zaxos is a more family-type taverna, also very good and tzatziki that makes you smell for a week....:-)
btw, no more free lounge use at the Arion for Plats when staying at the Westin....also the spa at the arion is no longer free, unless you are PLAT.
overall the place is great, drawback is that the beach/sea tend to get garbage (plastic, stuff).
one comment made by staff was that the W wont come....it will continue to be delayed....not sure how true that is though.
