What a brilliant holiday at Villa Eirene. It is located in a lovely quiet area which is easy to get to in the car. A short drive to Skala for a bit of nightlife or just relaxing by the pool it is just perfect. There is a lovely restaurant in the village but it is very popular so be sure to book! The villa is very clean and well stocked with everything you need to cook some great meals. The rooms are big and airy, there are plenty of bathrooms. The pool and sunbeds get the sun all day and have a lovely view of the sea and mountains. There is a lovely breeze from the mountains on an evening too. Tony is an excellent host and was so easy to communicate with. We have booked again for next year and cannot wait!

This villa is fantastic! Lots of room, very clean, comfortable and very well equipped if you want to cook in but also 5 minutes walk from the wonderful Avri taverna. Superb views from every window and door. AC was a godsend! The pool is perfect, nice depth across the whole thing at 1.50m with a ledge around too. Communications with the owner and housekeeper were great, very quick responses and really helpful. Perfect position for the 10 minute drive into Skala. Only 12 Euros back in the taxi if you want a few cocktails! Lovely beach bar and restaurant Anemos at Kaminia beach, just below the villa. A walk down not too bad but quite a hike back up! Restaurant on the pricier side but the food, view and service was incredible. Kaminia beach itself was quite shallow so you have to walk out a way to really swim. My son saw research students helping turtles to hatch one early morning! Skala beach lovely for swimming and snorkelling. AB supermarket in Skala good for most things but go early for bread and meat. Beautiful drive through the mountains to Sami and Antisamos beach - again, go early to get a spot by one of the trees for shade if you don’t want to be in the crowded bar/sun bed area. Water sports great fun but again quite pricey. Lourdata beach lovely with a hidden gem of a bar in the village called Cafe Platanos run by a Welshman who sells 300 different types of bottled beers. The view from the loo is incredible!! Recommend Perfanis car hire. Kefalonia is a wonderful island and this villa was perfect for 9 of us. Thank you Tony and Will, the lovely ladies who came to clean and nice pool man!

David McCloud from London UK Sep 2013 Really lovely Villa, well furnished and good sized accomodation,and very close to a beautiful beach. Car hire recommended to enjoy fully the local amenities in Skala, which provide you with a good selec tion of restaurants, bars and shopping facilties, but on top of that, its well worth taking a few trips around the Island as the views are absolutely breath-taking. The Villas pool kept the kids happy during the days we stayed in, and in the evening the BBQ was great to relax with our friends and enjoy the sun going down. Highly recommend this if you want to get away for some peace and relaxtion, but still want the option to be close enough for other forms of entertainment.

Adrian Froggatt from Sevenoaks Kent Oct 2013 We only went for a short break but will definitely be booking again. The villa was superb and had all the comforts of home with plenty of space for everyone. The people on Kefalonia are very friendly and the location of the villa is perfect just being a few minutes drive to Skala and the local shops and restaurants. The nearby beach is to die for, clear warm water just right for the kids.
