Top Melissani Cave Lake Hotel Reviews

Kalypso Studios & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodation is well-situated, within walking distance of both the beach and Melissani Lake. There are some sports courts just behind the property that seem free to use, and the bakery next door is fabulous. The local beach was one of our favorites; while it might not have the dramatic beauty of Myrtos or Fteri, it is definitely the coolest beach in Kefalonia. The cold water from Melissani Lake flows into the sea here, creating a refreshing cold top layer. We really appreciated this in the July heat, and there is often a fresh breeze, too. The flat is a good size, clean, and well-furnished. The air conditioning works well, though you can't set the temperature below 23°C (which, to be fair, is cool enough). The only annoying bit is that after a while, the temperature resets itself up to 25°C or 26°C on its own. The owners are great, very helpful and even let us borrow a beach mat and a parasol, which was an absolute lifesaver!There's a couple of restaurant within walking distance which we haven't tried. Sami is only 5mn drive or 30mn walk by the beach and offer plenty choices. I'd definitely recommend this place."

Steps from the Ionian Sea, literally 10m from barefoot bliss!

10/10 Excellent

"Although this isn’t one of the sea view properties, it couldn’t be better placed for access to fantastic restaurants, bakeries, and the island as a whole. Well equipped and very comfortable, with a nice little garden."

Villa Averto Family sized villa with style, elegance and stunning seaviews!

10/10 Excellent

"Villa Averto was the best home rental we have ever had! The entire property was gorgeous and spotlessly clean. The 3 bedrooms were spacious, and it was wonderful having 3.5 bathrooms for our family of 6. The rental was very well-equipped: plenty of plates, utensil, and glasses/mugs, plus any additional equipment needed for cooking. The outdoor barbeque was a fantastic bonus that we used. We enjoyed dining on the patio (with a sunshade provided) for each meal we were home at the villa. The location was wonderful - centrally located to major tourist sites in Sami, and it was a short walk into the town, where there were many shops and restaurants. Plus the home was up on a hill, with beautiful views of the sea and mountains. It was a lovely surprise to open the refrigerator and find bottled waters, a bottle of wine, and fresh fruit! Additionally, chocolate treats and breakfast croissants were in a basket on the counter. This, combined with daily housekeeping really made for a luxurious stay. Our host, Ourania, greeted us on our arrival day, and she made sure to check in on us and make sure we were comfortable with everything we needed. She communicated 2 days prior to arrival with detailed information on check-in. She was easy to contact through WhatsApp during our stay.I cannot recommend this property enough. If we return to Kefalonia, we will definitely stay here again. An excellent home rental!"

Anassa Boutique Beach House | Registration number 00000855271

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very lovely characterful house to stay in and Gavriela is a super helpful host.We were not aware form the description that 1 bedroom is really not v private has no door, & is open plan to the rest of the house, which would have been good to know. However it did not matter too much to us in the end, as it was handy to be close to the port, with easy access to ferries and restaurants, and the house feels like a special home. Thanks so much for having us wehad a great holiday."

Ionian Trilogy Luxury Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous Villa Katerina! Totally private and in a stunning, quiet spot with lovely views. We loved the spacious living area and well-equipped kitchen, but the outside was so special - we ate every meal on the terrace and used the bbq every night. The heated pool was gorgeous and so much bigger than we expected! Our host Rosanna was very helpful and easy to contact, and she had provided some food essentials when we arrived, which was a nice touch. The daily housekeeping was much appreciated too. Loved it, we’ll be back!"
