About

We are Bren and Alan, now starting our fifth year of renting our delightful villa and guesthouse in Mavrata, Kefalonia. Bren has extensive knowledge and expertise having worked in the global corporate hospitality industry for over 20 years. We hope to bring some of this experience to your stay to ensure that you have everything you need to make your stay at Villa Aglaia that perfect holiday experience. Mavrata is a lovely traditional Greek village with a pretty church at its centre and a fantastic family run taverna, Elios. The villa is within easy walking distance of Elios taverna and just 5 minutes’ drive from the many fantastic tavernas and bars on the seafront of the beautiful seaside town of Katelios where you will find lovely sandy beaches and a sheltered shallow sandy bay with crystal clear water.

An absolute gem! What a stunning place to stay, a great house in calm environment. Totally loved it. Communication with Alan was top and we had everything we needed ready from the start. Kept every promise. Can't say more then - I strongly recommend! Will certainly turn back, the sooner the better.

This is without doubt, one of the most beautiful homes, I've had the pleasure to stay in. The pictures don't do it justice, the view really was spectacular. (It is just like the pictures only better!) The areas you drive through are crazy, it's like stepping back in time through the towns and the vehicles you see parked up are something from the 80/90's, or even before, some of the roads are on the edge of a cliff, it's fabulous and terrifying at the same time. Everywhere we went the people were so friendly. I had no idea what to expect of Kefalonia, but I know we will be back. The villa is very well equipped with everything you could need, the pool is heated by the sun and so is warmer in the afternoon. Can't wait to book again!

The Villa is in a really lovely location with superb views all around. There are no near neighbours and so it is beautifully tranquil. From the pool area you look out over a seascape that cannot have changed for centuries - several miles of shimmering sea with the cliffs of Zakynthos appearing through the haze in the background. The only noise not self-generated is the 'kee kee' of buzzards riding the thermals as they quarter their hunting territory or the twitter of a group of 20 Swallows that several times a day perform aerobatics as they drink from the Villa's pool. The villa was well-equipped and very comfortable with a wi-fi that enabled us to work on our laptops and download films. Superb location from which to explore the island and to spend some lazy days re-charging the batteries. The Villa's friendly owners always responded to any queries we had within minutes.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The best villa from the island! And I don't exagerate. Rooms were clean, the view is breathtaking and all of the furniture and electricals are new. Also, Alan is the best host! Always respond within 5-30 minutes. Gave us everything that we needed ( information about the island, were we can eat the best local food, direction to the villa, etc etc) We are seriously considering to return the next summer with our big family. https://business.google.com/reviews/l/16729325229874474148

What a fantastic place to stay! Home away from home with regards to how well equipped the villa is. The view is mesmerising and we couldn’t bare to tear ourselves away. Loved the proximity to Katelios for the tavernas and a little bit of life but the peacefulness of the villa itself is second to none. Can’t recommend highly enough!

It's the perfect location for a group of 6-8 persons . The villa it's very practical and you will don't need a thing. You have absolutely everything there. From a dishwasher to a jacuzzi and bathroom in every room. The host it's a very nice person who helped us with a lot of insight of the island and some cold white wine in the fridge when we arrived 😁
