Fantastic two weeks on beautiful Kefalonia
Review Submitted: October 31, 2009
Date of Stay: October 2009
We arrived at the villa in brilliant sunshine, and were overwhelmed by our first impressions of the villa and the surroundings, especially the gardens. They were exactly as described on the booking website. The facilities were everything that you could wish for........ pure luxury.
The villa was spotless and very well-maintained. The twice-weekly maid service was an added luxury and helped us have two stress-free weeks in the sun.
We visited the local family run taverna, where the hospitality was first class, and we had a wonderful meal...... they also spoke perfect English which was a bonus.
Having visited Kefalonia before, we decided that we wanted to explore more of the island and rented a car for the full two weeks… this is always a good idea. We would fully recommend visiting Assos, Sami, Agia Efimia, Skala. ... all beautiful villages with plenty to do and see.
Fantastic beaches at Mirtos and Antisamos (where ‘Captain Corelli’s Mandolin’ was filmed)
The main town, Argostoli, is only ten minutes away and has the charm of modern supermarkets adjacent to the local fisherman selling their catch on the quay. You can choose to take advantage of the abundant shopping facilities in the pedestrianised streets, or simply have a coffee and watch the world go by.
Paul and Ange are the best hosts that you could wish for. Ange and Moli came on the first day to welcome us and show us how to set the hot water etc and advise on the days that the maid and the pool man would arrive. Ange also provided her contact numbers in case there was anything else we needed.
We would have no hesitation in recommending this beautiful villa to friends and family. Only wish our stay could have been longer. Look forward to making another booking next year.
Mike and Lesley
