We arrived and all of our jaws dropped. What a beautiful property. Everything home from home is provided and more. Stunning views of sea and olive trees. Lovely friendly taverna in the village square where Mr P cooks lamb. goat or pig on an open bbq spit roast. Incredible. Sophia and Lida were so helpful with all aspects of our holiday. My only regret is that I wish we had booked 2 weeks. I am just about to phone Lida to see if we can book again for next year.
Sophia was very professional and helpful during both the check in and checkout, making sure all went smoothly and made sure we got the most of our stay. The villa was excellently laid out, with everything you’d need and more. The villa was clean and well presented, and amazingly located! We would definitely go back or recommend to our friends.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this beautiful and luxury villa. The villa is very spacious and we especially loved how well equipped the house was. Everything you might possibly need in the kitchen was there and more, including a cool bag and sun umbrellas for days out. The garden is beautifully planted and was very colourful during our stay in early June and we loved the view which could also be enjoyed from the gorgeous pool. We enjoyed drinks on the upstairs terrace ( which gets the sun till late) after a day out before going out for dinner. The villa is in the middle of the village and within walking distance of 2 tavernas and just a 5 minute drive to a well stocked mini market and bakery. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer - we definitely hope to return.
We have just returned from an amazing week at this beautiful villa. Everything was perfect, the villa is more spacious than appears in photos, exceptionally clean and very well equipped. The bedrooms are large, good size ensuites snd very comfy beds. Views across countryside down to sea are lovely with beautiful sunsets. Infinity pool is a pleasure to swim in and a good size if you want to get a few lengths in for exercise. There is an excellent taverna within walking distance and villa is very well placed for visiting Kefalonia’s many attractions. The housekeeper was very friendly and helpful and communication from time of booking throughout was quick and helpful. Do not hesitate to book, you will not be disappointed.
At last we got to Villa Portokalia, held up by Covid and lock downs, we finally arrived in early June. As soon as we got out of our hire car, on arrival at the villa, we knew we were in for a real treat. The villa and the pool, in the dying soft eveing light, were a spectacle, it was like we had arrived at paradise. We quickly unpacked and headed for the local taverna, Maklithari Taverna, just a 5min strool through the village. It was now 10pm and we sat drinking cold beer and eating the most exciting food until midnight. The village, Maklithari, has everything within walking distance, a couple of small supermarkets, a bakery, and two or three tavernas. The villa is perfectly placed to investigate the rest of the Island and you dont have to travel far to find perfect beaches and coves with water as blue and clear as anything I have ever seen. I was there with my wife two daughters and one boyfriend, five adults in total. The layout of the villa worked perfectly for us and was extremley well equiped. There were four or five different sun terraces which all seemed to capture the suns rays right through the day, and the planting around the villa was a sight to be seen. I have included some picturs of the flowers from around the villa. There were many high points to this holiday but those that deserve a special mention are: such a beautiful villa, the friendlyness of the people of Kefalonia, the crystal clear waters, great beaches, excellent food and wine, prices that will surprise you (in a good way) and the ability of Kefalonia to totally relax and rejeuvinate body and soul. Would we go there again, well what do you think!!
This is a beautiful, spacious, well appointed villa in a nice peaceful location. Well located for all central and northern island places of interest but a car is essential. Plenty of restaurants within a few minutes drive and one that is walkable to and recommended in the village where the villa is. Smart air conditioning takes a bit of getting used to but did the job. Great pool with a view to match and we wish we were still there. Sophia very friendly and helpful
