Pros: Breakfast was superb .. however, we're a vegan family and whilst I did message to state this prior to our visit, we could only eat bread, jam and olives. ..... but hey! We survived! :-) To everyone else, the breakfast on offer looked beautiful.

Cons: Our room was slightly disappointing as it didn't look like any of the photos. It was very basic and very clean which was fine BUT the outer bed covers felt damp.

Pros: Located by many restaurants and stores.

Cons: Small shower.

Pros: Nearly Everything

Cons: WiFi was not so powerful- didn’t work in all the apartment and balconies.

Pros: Great location to the port, just a walk around the corner. Very close to many restaurants and a beach.

Pros: Location

Cons: Garden was overgrown. Disappointing outlook.

Pros: Close to ferry and town Competitively priced for whole apartment

Cons: Felt old fashioned and a little uncomfortable I contacted hotel 3 times to tell them my arrival time and no response When I arrived she wasn’t sure if I’d booked with booking. com or air bnb

Cons: No complaints at all, everything was just fine.

Pros: We liked everything about the place and would certainly go back

Cons: Our very noisy neighbours

Pros: The host and all staff at the property were incredibly friendly and made the stay extra enjoyable

Cons: The property isn’t very accessible to Sami and taxis are required to meet the town.

Pros: Unfortunately Kefalonia has a problem with bees/wasps. They appear at the same time as the food!! But they are just a small nuisance but might scare young children.

Cons: Leaving it!

Pros: Great pool very clean accomodation nice breakfast

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Modern decor with the best shower we'd experienced for the whole holiday! The pool area was lovely and the location of the apartment was perfect, really peaceful.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The Team, the Room, the Food, everything was better than we expacted! The Team ist so friendly and the Room is perfectly clean everyday. The Studios have a perfect Location for daily Trips.

Pros: The location. The balcony.

Cons: No signs from a main road. Noone was waiting for us. We were asked to pay at the first day because the owner would be absent next days. But we've seen here next days. We never got a receipt. In 4 days they haven't clean the room, haven't change towels. There was no A/C. The room was set up with an old furniture. It had an awful design (green walls and stickers with pinky flowers on it - seriously?) We've found 2 big spiders (one in a bathroom and another at cupboard) at first night. The power socket for a kettel was to far from a table.

Pros: Considering that it had no AC it was quite nice and fresh for a summer day and night - so we were surprised considering that it was one of the main worries that we had. The price was nice, the room was very clean. Parking was plenty and the whole area was very quiet.

Cons: The location was a little outside of Sami - it may be close but you can't really walk to the city. For anything that we needed, we had to drive. The fact that it was far together with the lack of any kitchen supplies made it inconvenient a tiny bit. Would highly recommend adding a tiny kitchenette. The wifi was very limited - enough for basic needs but you can not hold a skype call.

Pros: It was quiet and the room was quite spacious. We very much enjoyed having the fan and the coffee was greatly appreciated.

Cons: Directions were extremely unclear - we found a much quicker route to/from town via the beach.

Pros: The host was super nice. We can just recommend sofias place as an accommodation!

Pros: I loved how above and beyond Sofia and her employees went to ensure me and my friends were comfortable. She kindly allowed us to stay after the check out time because our flight wasn't until later that night. The accommodation was immaculate, it has a very rustic feel and had great amenities. We were able to shower easily and we could cook meals in our kitchen.

Cons: Nothing, this place was excellent.

Pros: Bed very comfortable. Marinos was a perfect host and very helpful. Very clean with a change of towels & sheets half way through the week.

Cons: Kitchen facilities could have been better so that breakfast could be made and eaten on the terrace. Dogs were a bit noisy at night.

Pros: Clean room, nice terrace, comfortable beds, good location for the beach, host was very welcoming and full of recommendations and a very friendly cat!

Cons: Nothing really everything met our expectations

Cons: There was a petroleum like smell when you opened the room window. Probably from the boiler that was installed outside of my room.

Pros: Hotel faces the harbour with a fantastic view of hills and mountains in the distance. The style of the hotel is quite minimalist, in colours of grey and white. All the staff we met were friendly, helpful and courteous. Breakfast was excellent, you had ample choice and could try with local specialities as well. The restaurant in the evening was also very good. The hotel is in walking distance of the bus station as well as a variety of shops, bars and restaurants. The ferry to Lixouri is about 5 minutes walk away.

Cons: Perhaps the wine list could have included some tasting notes for the selection of the Greek wines on offer.

Pros: Everything was fantastic!!! The staff, the food, the place, the city, the cleanliness. A perfect designed hotel with a breathtaking view. Highly recommended!!!!!

Cons: Everything was perfect!!!

Pros: location, views, service and food all great

Cons: Bathrooms very small

Pros: Breakfast was excellent, great variety and good service. Staff was very accommodating. Wonderful to have beach towels, umbrella and mat provided! Dinner was very tasty too and excellent location, can see turtles right by the bay in the mornings!

Cons: Room needs a bit of updating. Floors look very old and bathroom has water damage. Wet room style of bathroom wasn't particularly pleasant either. And we had ants in our room the first night!

Pros: Great price and very friendly

Cons: Small shower

Pros: Location was excellent. The hotel is in the central square as well as being a couple of minutes' walk from the waterfront. There are lots of good restaurants and shops close by. The hotel bedrooms are well decorated with nice en suite bathrooms.

Cons: The hotel had a well stocked bar but there were no staff to provide drinks, either late afternoon or later in the evening. Some of the staff were reluctant to provide more than basic service.

Pros: Very very clean, helpful staff and great location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Warm hospitality, super comfort bed, nice room design, clean washroom, good breakfast, fantastic location, the best hotel I've ever stay so far!! You must stay here!!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very helpful and friendly staff. Nice newly refurbished smart looking hotel with a good breakfast in a perfect central location.

Pros: Hotel looks great from outside, super clean, hallways lovely, bedding great, most amazing shower Breakfast buffet was good, machine coffee was great for a machine, fresh juice, super greek honey & yoghurt Right on the main square so you can walk to restaurants and the 4 main nightlife bars, and just 1 street back from the port front

Cons: Disappointed in lack of facilities - 4 stars should indicate a well equipped hotel. This hotel literally offers bed and breakfast and nothing else. There is not even a hotel bar (it was there but never attended/open). Staff are not friendly (with the exception of 1 lady)> the vibe therefore is not that good > generally unsmiling and don't even greet you when you come in and out, so culturally they haven't got that right. Not even a good morning at breakfast, and that's across the board, that's not on in hospitality. The a/c didn't seem to work in our room The room was way too small for 2 people - bad design they have put a huge dressing table in and you can't walk past each other (we did book a deal on an exec room, so I think you need to book the bigger rooms which is what shows on the website, ours was a cupboard compared to those images) The picture of the spa on the roof top is complete misrepresentation > and their website talks about their rooftop - there is not rooftop for guests, that's just 1 suite I believe. I've stayed in hotels all over the world and this is the only one that runs like a b&b. If I'd have wanted a b&b I would have booked one.

Pros: Fantastic view of the square, great staff on arrival, room very comfortable,

Cons: There was only one mirror in the room , in the bathroom. Could do with another near the door

Pros: Centrally located, clean and well maintained, and lovely and helpful staff who went above and beyond to ensure we had a lovely stay and time in Greece. Thank you from your guests in room 209 on 12th-14th October - we will be back!

Pros: Amazing location. All is located in walking distance. This is especially great if you traveled with the car during the day and want to have dinner in the city centre. Personel was helpful and kind. We had everything we needed.

Cons: The roof terase is not operating.

Pros: Everything was great, super clean, relaxed atmosphere and a great breakfast. There was 2 bottles of water in our room every day and some little toiletries. It was ideally located near the harbour (we saw turtles every morning) and the main square with just a short walk to restaurants. It was an 8 minute drive to a lovely sandy beach too and was well located for other trips around the island! There was loads of parking on the harbour front- not sure how available this would be in the peak of summer but it was perfect for us! There was a problem with our door and it was sorted so quickly. I can’t fault the hotel or the staff, we had a great time we would definitely stay again if we returned to the area!

Cons: I don’t think there is anything I could say I didn’t like. It was a dream.

Pros: After a previous 5 camping and 6 nights sleeping on a small yacht, spending the last night of an amazing Kefalonian in a spacious two story studio apartment , with two showers rooms , balcony, patio and kitchen felt palatial. Clean and comfortable , with friendly staff . My daughter and 6 year old grandson were delighted . We all loved the pools and the nearby beach , watching the landing planes fly right overhead whilst swimming in the sea . There is also a lovely little sandy beach with warm clear sea m and a beach cafe that sells snacks and drinks. Proximity to airport meant we could spend a last morning on beach , before setting out for our afternoon flight. We didn’t try the restaurant which looked good as we were only there one night and there was live music in nearby beach taverna , so for our last night we enjoyed a delightful supper , serenaded as we watched the sun set over the sea . We will be back for a longer stay.

Cons: No formal shop on site , though they sold water foe €4 for 6x 1l bottles . The cost of this convenience was double that of a local mini market, a 5 min walk away. , and 4x that of one larger supermarket where we had previously paid just €1 for 6 bottles .

Pros: The view

Cons: The property is very old . Not value for money.

Pros: Clean linen and towels. Watching the aeroplanes coming in to land as hotel is located next to the airport. Comfy Sun-loungers by pool.

Cons: Rooms are very old and in need of refurbishment. Had to move rooms but still not much improvement. No TV. Nowhere to hang up the shower head, water all over the floor. Typically Greek, unable to flush toilet paper down the toilet. Not very good value for money at 90€ per night (without breakfast).

Pros: Just perfect holiday. Cleaning ladies do great job because apartment was very clean every day. Lovely 3 swimming pools. Peace and quiet. Great place to stay with children. So close to the beach, bus stop and to the local supermarket. We were afraid to stay near the airport but there was not very noisy. It is more like a cool atraction especially for kids. We are thinking of coming back there:)

Pros: Nice breakfast. Hotel central located and modern and clean rooms.

Pros: Nice location between pier and plaza

Pros: The property was situated equidistant to the main square and the sea front, so, perfect. The whole place was well designed with clean lines and unusual features, eg light fittings, unusual flashes of colourful wallpaper. The buffet breakfast was the best I've had in Greece and many other places too. There were the usual things, scrambled eggs/bacon or sausage, cereals, breads, ham, cheese etc but each day there were a few changes. For example the cheese pie was different from one day to the next and there was also a variety of sweet things, one day a delicious chocolate ganache confection, another an apricot cheesecake. Most of the produce is prepared onsite. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was continuously checked and tables cleared quickly. The bed was comfortable and the linen clean and in good condition. The bathroom was of a very high standard.

Cons: The only minus point was the room advertised on the booking.com website was an airy loft room; however the room we were allocated was absolutely fine but not what we were expecting and it didn't have a view.

Pros: The location is excellent.

Cons: I didn't like the bed and the pillows very much.

Pros: Ideal for the airport - we only used it for the day as an alternative to a late check out from our villa which wasn’t available

Cons: Charged more on arrival simply because there were four adults., despite the fact that the room wasn’t big enough for four adults and that we only used the room for suitcases., so hardly value for money.

Pros: The owner /landlord/staff were super helpful and happy to share everything about the area and island including offering to be available for any queries. They stayed in contact throughout. The apartments/rooms are awesome, clean and adequate! Lots to do in area and amazing places to hang out with amazing swimming pool, bar, restaurant. Accommodation is superb in every way. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Costas was always available for questions and advise. Gosh we can't wait to return next year!!

Cons: N/A

Pros: Beautiful location with accommodating friendly staff.

Cons: No complaints.

Pros: New,clean,spacious rooms.Free parking,nice swimming pool with view.Value for money.Good option if you have a car.

Cons: The only drawback was the behavior of the receptionist.We arrived at 3:00pm and we waited for 2 hours to enter our room!We would leave, but the manager saved the situation.Except this,everything else was great.They allowed us to make late checkout.

Pros: Nice hotel for a stop over for the airport for 1 night Lovely pool and restaurant great staff lovely sea view over the airport

Cons: You would need a car if you stayed longer

Pros: The staff were fantastic. The cleaners were very efficient, Reception lady very helpful and especially Anna at the bar was very friendly and welcoming on every visit. The kitchen department prepared super food and the large servings helped me through the day. Everyone seemed happy to be there. The late visiting singers one night put on a very tuneful late night concert and I hope they won some prizes in their competition. Regards to all.

Pros: It was clean and comfortable. There were bedside phone charging sockets.

Cons: 1. On checking out, I discovered that the hotel had already taken the full amount from my credit card - and not the advised deposit - without my approval. 2. It is marketed as an airport hotel, situated within 2.5k. Vertically! This meant I had to spend €14 for a taxi next morning, instead of walking, to collect my hire car from back at the airport. 3. The ‘free shuttle’ that collected us cost €14. It was a medium-to-small-sized car. My daughter and I and our luggage, shared the limited space with two adults, a baby, a stroller and their luggage. The family also paid. The driver had not driven the vehicle before: she got lost, overshot the turning by a mile and tried to drive up a goat path. She turned out to be the Receptionist. 4. The room cost €72. There was not even a bottle of water in the fridge. Dreadful, dreadful value for money!!

Pros: Green place, staff, food, view, flowers, trees. Friendly staff and good food at the restaurant.

Cons: There was a noisy guest next to our door with loud music. That guest was quite impolite doing that.

Pros: It’s was very close to the airport. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was lovely and very reasonably priced.

Cons: The bed was very uncomfortable so did not get a very good nights sleep, but considering the cost it’s understandable. We had a very noisy neighbour play very loud rap music first thing in the morning, which woke us up. Not the hotels fault but maybe someone should have spoken to them, as it did spoil our stay.

Pros: had a good view from the balcony. The staff were very helpful and nice. They cleaned my room thoroughly even though i had left my room a total mess everyday. Thanks a lot. And really good price.

Cons: well, the location was a bit far from the city center. If u dont rent a car. then u have to hike over a HILL (10min almost) to get to the city center. Strongly recommended if with car rental though.

Pros: Excellent location, beautiful views, free WiFi which we never had a problem with, fab food right on your doorstep at Oskars restaurant and Mikas and his staff were brilliant. From the minute we arrived and he handed me a lovely freezing cold glass of wine, nothing was too much trouble. This is the perfect base for those seeking simple, immaculately clean and comfortable self-catering accommodation near Lassi. It’s very peaceful too.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: We did not have this facility.

Cons: Nothing.! Staff extremely friendly and rooms basic but spotlessly clean.

Pros: The location was good.

Cons: Small rooms, bathroom was tiny and actual shower base was so tiny and you have to hold the shower head, so water goes everywhere. They do not provide any shower toiletries. The area smells of sewage. The host Rosa did try to accommodate and changed our room to a bigger room for the 3 of us.

Pros: It is very confortable and nice place.The rooms ale clean and views from the balconies are amazing. We are thinking about coming back at this place.

Cons: Not applicable.

Pros: We really liked: - the location close to Argostoli, the airport and some of the nicest beaches from the island - Makris Gialos - the amazing sunset views from the balcony - the very kind and helpful staff and the communication with them - the cleanliness of the studio - the cute cats from the garden :)

Cons: Some small things could be improved, such as: - the mattresses on the beds - the wifi connection - the noisy air conditioning Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Everything was just perfect- it was very clean, fantastic location and the owners were very friendly. The view from the balcony was to die for superb. I would recommend this accommodation to everyone.

Pros: Just a nice atmosphere and relaxed.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The hotel has been recently renovated to a very high standard. It would certainly rate as a boutique hotel in my opinion.

Cons: The safe wasn't secured to anything!

Pros: Really nicely presented complex just a short distance from the beach. Lovely staff.....we were given a free upgrade which was unexpected so stayed for 2 nights rather than 1. Both Christina's on reception went above and beyond...well done to you both. The pool areas were really nicely maintained and the whole site shows the staff are continually making an effort...which is good. Also very quiet at night for sleeping. Will stay again as its just 5 mins from the airport....don't let that put you off as you might only have a few flights in and out each day and they fly in and out over the sea so not a problem 10/10

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Warm welcome even at midnight as our plane had been delayed . Clean spacious comfortable room . Would of liked to stay longer .

Cons: Strees around the Hotel are narrow, so it's a little difficult to access by car.

Pros: The view was amazing and the swimming pool was clean and lovely.

Cons: The rooms were not set up as agreed-upon, the beds felt like springs in our back’s, I am the group leader and I had to sleep in the middle of the kitchen on a Cot. Nobody spoke English except for one of the younger children, there was no hot water, the showerheads sprayed the entire bathroom, electrical in one of the villas did not work, no sheets on some of the beds and the quilts were absolutely filthy. If you wanted Air-Conditioning you had to pay five euros per day per Per bedroom. We gave our clothes for laundry service and they brought them back soaking wet. When we left the hotel, the gentleman owner called me yelling at the top of his Lungs and cussing at me and then text me that one of my fellow travelers left a bad review and he was coming to the airport then Corfu and then to Florida where we reside to find us because of this review. I did not like the threat.

Pros: I saw my grandchildren and my son who live there.

Cons: Not enough facilities for cooking

Pros: breakfast was amazing, so fresh each day, location perfect, hosts outstanding, cleanliness superb!

Cons: the weather!! ha ha! maybe ask parents to control older children around the pool, but i do understand the importance of having fun!

Cons: Definitely need a car. Taxi's are expensive into Argostoli.

Pros: The breakfast was very good. Lots of options and really good coffee. Our room had a balcony with a fantastic view. We also had a small kitchen that was perfect for our family. We found a mini-market close by that would deliver groceries/drinks to our doorstep. And a great restaurant close by. Great pool on the property that we swam in every day.

Cons: I knew the property was not on the beach. I was unaware that it was a pretty good hike to get to the beach. It was down hill to the beach and a looonng walk back up to our apartment. Thankfully we like hiking and spent our 4 days there hiking to various beaches. Also just a word of warning, the beds are not the most comfortable.

Pros: Spotless accommodation. Quiet location.

Pros: Very friendly athmosphere. V very kind landlord who gave me a big branch of his huge Crassula ovata to take home as a live souvenir from Kephalonia.

Cons: A nice hotel, 8 min from the centre of Lixouri. Pastry shop and market very close to the hotel. The room with the balcony with the shadow in the morning and in the evening. Big fridge with a 1.5l bottle of water per person and biscuits as a treat from a very friendly landlord.

Pros: It was very nice to stay at this hotel. We were surprised by the cleanliness of the rooms, every day the room is perfectly cleaned and everything was folded.

Cons: all is good. I recommend these apartments.

Pros: Everything besides no kettle and lack of food being served.

Cons: No kettle in the room.

Pros: Friendly staff! The rooms were lovely. When we left and they saw my plastic bag with water in it,was ripped, she gave me a new plastic bag. The little things matter.

Cons: We booked a room for 2 people, double bed. Unfortunately by arrival the room had 2 single bed's. No alternative was offerd. We were tild that thiswas the only room left, so they couldn't put us in a other room.

Pros: Not bad and good size room, but...

Cons: Location not ideal and not cheap. Also no breakfast

Pros: Beautiful, scenic and spotlessly clean. lovely breakfast Quiet and unspoilt location, access to sandy beaches.

Cons: Nothing, but just to note not suitable for the elderly due to steps and slopes

Pros: Nice rooms, pool area and location was good

Cons: The rooms were so hot. Air conditioning wouldn’t go to less then 18. It was between 38-40 degrees so disappointing that the hotel would lower the temperature of the air conditioning. Therefore it was impossible to sleep. Hotel restaurant had little choice but lots of restaurants only a 10 minute walk away

Pros: The rooms were kept extremely clean and the staff were very friendly

Cons: Nothing really it had everything we needed

Pros: The hotel overlooks the sea so the views were amazing.

Cons: Nothing!!
