Fantastic central location.
We have had a fantastic stay, at a very well equiped, spotlessly clean, and modern villa
The location allowed us to visit all that kefalonia has to offer. The hosts made us very welcome and looked after all of our needs, and pointed us to some very good local taverners, beaches, and places to visit. Very highly recommended.

A modern, clean and peaceful property.
This was a delightful property with beaches, supermarkets and a fantastic restaurant all within an easy drive. The property was well equipped with several outside places to sit along with a lovely view of a nearby castle. The hosts were fantastic and did everything possible to make our stay a real pleasure. We would definitely stay at this property again if we ever returned to Kephalonia.

GENTILEZZA
Casa molto carina e dotata di ogni confort! Posizione comoda per qualsiasi spostamento! Ma soprattutto la gentilezza e disponibilità dei proprietari (il nostro volo all’andata ha avuto un ritardo di 2 ore facendoci arrivare a mezzanotte a casa, mentre il giorno della partenza avevamo il traghetto per Zante alle 18 e la proprietaria ci ha lasciato usare la casa fino all’ultimo)!Un grazie speciale alla signora Alexandra!

A very impressive and well equipped house let by a charming family
Our 11 day stay at the property was delightful. Our hosts were most helpful and generous and made our stay all the more pleasant. The house is large and airy and very well equipped with all one might need. It is constructed and furnished to a very high standard, quite private and surpasses its description on the website.
We would highly recommend this property and would certainly choose to stay here should we visit the island again
Many thanks to Alexandra and George
Kind regards
John and Patricia
