"One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at! Everything about it is great. Would highly recommend"

"Villa Eirini is situated near the small hamlet of Evreti with the most amazing views across the Ionian Sea to the sister island of Ithaca from the breakfast terrace and both bedrooms. The villa was welcoming and beautifully clean with the nice touch of some useful provisions, plus a very nice bottle of white wine. Our host Greg always responded promptly to our queries and checked that we were enjoying our stay while we were there. Natalie Greg's cousin lives across the road from the villa and looks after the villa. She was a joy to know and was tremendously helpful with her local knowledge and friendly personality. We will definitely holiday in Villa Eirini again. "

"Villa Liladi is a simply wonderful villa. My wife and I had a two-week holiday based there and can unreservedly recommend it. Its location is perfect, affording peaceful and stunning views from its terrace of the seas separating Kephalonia from the smaller island of Ithica and the Greek mainland. It is also just some 4 km from the lovely, busy harbour (‘Yachty’ ) town of Fiskardo and just 3 km from the heavenly uncrowded beach at Foki Bay and others near-by. The villa itself is charming, built on a traditional style, and is well equipped for all needs, especially the lovely private swimming pool to enjoy. One of the unexpected delights of the villa is the on-site presence of the housekeeper Makis and his wife, who live discretely in an apartment below the villa. They efficiently answered any queries we had, provided first class service tending the pool etc and gave us home-made treats from their kitchen during our stay. This gesture and the villa itself made our holiday memorable. An exceptional property."

"The Surf was excellent value and all the staff were so friendly. "

"My wife and I stayed here for two weeks in September 2024. We loved it. We had a 1 bedroom junior suite with a sea view. The apartment is on the second floor. If you have any mobility problems, please note that there is no lift. The location of the complex is excellent, right on the sea front. The beach, as with many on Kefalonia is stony. This area of the beach has no public facilities so is very quiet. The apartment was large, we had a double balcony. There was air conditioning in both the lounge area and bedroom. It is modern and well furnished. The kitchen area included a large fridge-freezer, hob, toaster kettle and coffee maker. There was also a washing machine in the bathroom,which we were not expecting. The shower had both a waterfall shower head and a second hand-held shower lower down. The hot water came through quickly which isn't always the case. The bed was large, and very comfortable. There was a large built in wardrobe with lots of draw space. Locally, there were two tavernas and a cafe, with a bakery nearby. Sami is a five minute drive away, and in the other direction Agia Elfimia is 10 minutes away. Both have a number of taverans and shops. Karavomylos was a good location for seeing the island. Argostelli was about 30 minutes away, Fiscardo 45 minutes, Assos and Myrtos beach 30 minutes drive. It was a really good apartment in a location that we thought was ideal. "

"This is the first time we have booked an older villa. We are delighted that we did. This family home has a marvellous feel about it. It is surrounded by ancient trees and beautiful flowers and had vines growing alongside the pool which looks over the beautiful Foki Bay, where we swam at dawn every day. The villa radiates peace and tranquility and it was made better by the team that hosted us. Vassiliki and her cousin Labros made the whole stay better. They epitomise the concept of Greek hospitality and care for strangers. We love the place and the people. We intend to go back!"
