A group of five over 50âs stayed in this lovely villa for a week. The views are breathtaking and the smell of the jasmine growing in the garden is so strong and lovely . We walked down to aggia effemia but didnât get all back up! Very steep climb. You will need a car. Lovely tavernas within a couple of miles and some great coves too.
Villa Rosa and Villa Vada are sympathetic restorations of old stone-walled cottages. The standout feature is the breath-taking view across the valley. The villas are semi-detached, and well screened from each other, but sound carries.Upstairs, there are the three small bedrooms: one with a queen bed and a small shower room; the other two a double and two singles, sharing a shower room. The air-con worked efficiently. The downstairs living area is rather dark, with two small windows. The kitchen is fairly basic, with limited preparation space, but it's ok for simple meals. There is a bread oven, but we couldn't find a way of firing it up. There's a recess that used to be used for pressing wines that's been preserved as a snapshot of times past.There were a few non-functioning items, but these were speedily rectified by Liza, the property manager, and her husband. The flatscreen TV is adequate although it could do with a soundbar. We used a Roku dongle to access streaming services, as the TV is set to receive satellite channels. The outside is bathed in sun all day. The pool area was perfect for spending a lazy day. The pool is a little overlooked by a path leading to a monastery, but we didn't feel that our privacy was compromised.All in all, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at Villa Rosa and we'd like to thank Liza for her care and attention - including when we accidentally locked ourself out. We particularly appreciated the welcome pack and parting gift.
The villa has a stunning view of the mountainside and is about midway between the beautiful coves of the north and the sandy beaches in the south. It was about an hourâs drive to our favourite stunning beach in the west, Petani. Antisamos and the beautiful village of Assos are very close. The villa was very comfortable and beautifully designed inside. The pool was small but lovely to relax in. We had many days of the holiday without any neighbours in the other villa, but when it was finally occupied we hardly noticed them. Liza was extremely helpful when we needed any information or assistance. All in all a wonderful base to explore Kefalonia.
Beautiful semi detached villa, set about 7 minutes drive from the village of Agia Effimia. High quality throughout with very helpful and friendly owners. The village is beautiful with its own small marina, plenty of great restaurants, a few supermarkets and bars. Ideal for couples, friends and families
La casa Ăš deliziosa, curata, di buon gusto. Bene attrezzata. Spazio esterno perfetto con piscina molto gradevole. Biancheria in ottime condizioni, che viene anche cambiata nei soggiorni di una settimana. Un posto che ricorderĂČ sempre con piacere; ideale per girare l'isola, a soli 2 chilometri dal mare con una splendida vista sulle colline intorno. Il canto delle cicale, gli olivi... Non c'Ăš dubbio. sei proprio immerso nel Mediterraneo, anche se da casa non lo vedi, lo senti. Rispetto al resto dell'isola posizione strategica. Vicino a casa, oltre le spiagge famose ( Mirtos e Antisamos facilmente raggiungibili) e spesso affollate, ci sono delle piccole spiagge stupende, che raggiungi con pochi passi dalla strada. Se prendi una barca, anche piccola, il tratto di costa vicino Ăš bellissimo, secondo me il piĂč bello dell'isola. Il versante di Agi Effimia Ăš ridossato dal maestrale e rende questo lato della costa molto fruibile. Vacanza bellissima. Da ripetere.
Indispensabile l'auto.
