Waterfront vacation rentals in Cephalonia

Honestly the best place, the hot tub and the views. But what really stands out is the host, Gersaimos had taught about everything and was there on hand and available to give me recommendations everyday based on where I was going. He had a bottle of wine for us when we arrived and made sure he was able to assist me with checking and super responsive at all times if I needed anything. I couldn’t be more thankful and grateful!

Lovely spot and great view. Anna was very helpful and responsive. Recommend

Great location, away from the noise, to the port and the bus stop to the airport 10 minutes, there is a place for swimming nearby. The apartment is clean, comfortable beds, clean linen,the kitchen has a minimum necessary for cooking. Hosts are available to help with tips. The price matches the quality. Recommended.

We had a wonderful 10day stay at the apartment - it was fantastic being in easy walking distance to everything and the view from the balcony was gorgeous. The kitchen is really well set up so its great to cook in if you want but equally there are lots of good local restaurants to check out. I stayed with my 2 teenage children and it was perfect - enough space for all of us to be together but also independent. My daily walk to the nearby cove for a morning swim was bliss. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place. Spotlessly clean and the view of the harbour is incredible. Communication was excellent and the host took time to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction. Be aware that cooking equipment is limited but there are plenty of eating options in Kioni.

Costa and Labrini were so generous and helpful throughout - from booking to check-in to departing. The apartment is beautifully designed and furnished. Immaculately clean and the kitchen is very well equipped. Fabulous views from the balcony and it is in a beautiful village. We highly recommend this apartment and we would return. Such a stunning island. Thank you for making our holiday so memorable and enjoyable.

very nice and clean apartment with lovely sea views and beach on the doorstep. perfect if you are looking for quiet holidays. town within a walking distance.

Thoroughly enjoyed our week at Seafront villa!! sold us from the photos and it 100% did not disappoint! came for a family week holiday with our 19 month old boy and he absolutely enjoyed everything! the local beach was beautiful and very peaceful and great for him! loved having our own pool!!! Themis' place is immaculate and had everything we needed for a family holiday in the sun! the outdoor oven was out of use at the time but the bbq replacement worked out well and we used it nearly everyday! we came early October and was very lucky with the weather. would 100% come back again to Themis' properties! the location is great and the views were stunning! we really benefitted from a hire car as we could explore the island more and was handy getting to the shops for food/drinks. thank you Themis for our stay!! Themis was very helpful with local knowledge and very quick responding to my messages! see you next year! xx

We had such a great stay at the beach house. Eli and Ulyssus were fantastic hosts. The house is quite literally on the beach which was perfect for us and our children. Also the taverna at the end of the beach was great with delicious fresh cooked food. The beach itself was great, soft sand and gently sloping. The sea was also so still, lovely for our youngest (who turned three while we were there) to explore the calm water. All in a fantastic holiday and we highly recommend staying with Eli to explore this beautiful side of the island.

The house is very walkable to the port and there is a nice little path opposite the house straight down to the sea. Air conditioning was a life saver and the fans added to keeping the house cool. We had a great stay!! We did quite a bit of exploring and highly recommend the Battery Hike. Nicolas taverna served great Mediterranean food with a beautiful view!

We had an amazing stay at Akis & Eleni's property. It was presented exactly as it was in the pictures and perfect for our family vacation. It's a private property, so very peaceful, with an amazing pool, outside area and sun loungers. Just a very short walk out the back of the garden and you are on a lovely (very unique) beach. There is a great beach bar if you turn left, and a short walk around (through the water) some rocky outcrops (or via some steps to avoid the water), a larger selection of beachside bars and restaurants, and water activities. You'll need a car for the supermarket and exploring the rest of the island, but it was the perfect bolthole for us for a week. Akis & Eleni were excellent hosts, and very easy to contact to provide you with the peace of mind you need on a family trip. Would highly recommend this to one family or two!

Christina is a delightful host who welcomes you personally and shows the house. the house is a marvel with two large rooms, an amazing living room and a huge terrace with a fantastic view. very nicely decorated and plenty of amenities. the house is a gem close to everything.

Wonderful 5 days in Sami staying in Dimitri’s apartment which was perfect for our family of 5 with 3 teens. The terrace is the real star - a good size and different areas to sit. We enjoyed morning coffee, lazy lunches & dinner on the terrace which really has the best view in Sami! Great for people watching in the restaurants below but not intrusive. Beautiful sunset views and we loved watching the yachts in the port. Easy to park on the street behind and only a few steps from all amenities. Lots of restaurants but you must visit The Mermaid restaurant below for very reasonably priced Kefalonian food and very friendly staff. Sami is a great location for exploring the island with several beaches nearby. We had a wonderful visit - thank you!

Villa Madelaine is the perfect place to enjoy the lovely Cephalonian countryside. It is convenient for the airport, Argostoli and a selection of beaches. The villa is well equipped with beautiful views of the sea and Zakinthos in the distance. Anna was super responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would highly recommend this villa.

We spent a lovely few days in this excellent apartment just a short walk from the beautiful little marina/harbour at Fiskardo. The apartment was spacious and well equipped and had a lovely big balcony where we spent a lot of time taking in the breathtaking views. There is a nice selection of bars and restaurants just a short walk away in Fiskardo, which is a lovely place to have food or a few drinks right by the marina. Would definitely visit again.

We stayed for a week at Kostas's place with two children under 4. Kostas's place was perfect for us. Everything we needed was provided for including toys for the beach! Kostas is a great host providing incredible local knowledge - everywhere we went and ate was recommended by him and all were very good. The house is extremely comfortable with all amenities in good condition and all your needs catered for. There is a small beach just outside the house which was quite private and suitable for small children to play. We would recommend a stay at Kostas's place without hesitation

This was the perfect location to explore the island of Kefalonia from. The accommodations were spacious, clean and both decks had fabulous views of the sea. It is located in a quite location with comfortable beds and it was stocked with all the necessities we required. The host was easy to communicate with and very punctual in filling any requests. Mrs. Sophia was lovely and kept the unit very clean for us.

A very cozy mini-hotel. Great price. Amazing view from the window! If I come to Kefalonia again, I’ll definitely stay there!

I can’t say enough positive things about this apartment. We had a wonderful stay and lovely warm welcome. Panos and the owner were very friendly and helpful. The apartment is great - modern and cosy. Perfect for what we needed. Incredibly clean, all the mod cons - very well equipped for cooking. Lovely little outdoor seating area and space to let clothes dry. Reliable mosquito nets - so you can have the door opens and not worry. Air con was great too. Perfect for toddlers as all on one floor - easy buggy access and no balcony to worry about. Gating around outside space offers privacy and means you don’t have to worry about the road etc - not that it’s busy. Lovely spot - close to beach, shops, restaurants. Our second time in Poros and will definitely book this place again.

In summation, Maria Thalia's Airbnb is a haven of beauty, luxury, and convenience that offers an enchanting escape from the ordinary. The exquisite interiors, complemented by captivating architecture, create an environment that speaks to both aesthetics and functionality. Its proximity to the main beach is a privilege that sets it apart, providing us with easy access to the island's natural splendor. The hospitality extended by our hostess was the proverbial cherry on top. Her guidance, recommendations, and genuine warmth transformed our stay into an experience that transcended traditional hospitality. We left Maria Thalia's Airbnb not only with memories of a beautiful stay but with a sense of having been truly cared for. Our deepest gratitude to Maria Thalia for curating such an exceptional retreat, and to our hostess for embodying the spirit of gracious hosting. Our stay was a testament to the fact that a perfect vacation will definitely stay there in our next visit.

Lovely little place following our arrival into Argostoli and needing a place before heading on to our main accommodation for our stay. Clean, easy to access and a lovely view.

Marianne's place was utterly delightful, a calm, peaceful oasis whilst not being isolated. The apartment was clean, tidy and had all of the amenities we needed. It is located in a block of serviced apartments but it doesn't feel overlooked or crowded. The beach opposite has a narrow shingle beach and has crystal clear, calm water and it was lovely to spend some time there. It is also not far from Antisamos beach and we also went to Myrtos beach a couple of times. We ate out in Sami, where there are lots of restaurants along the waters edge and is around a 5 minute drive but I believe you can also walk along the beach to get there. Litsa gave us loads of helpful advice & tips on where to visit and places to eat. Kefalonia is a stunning island and we would absolutely love to stay there again.
