About this property
Villa Penelope, Boundless Sea and Mountain Views With Private Swimming Pool
Between the misty mountains and breathtaking coastline of the island of Kefalonia stands two incredible sea-view villas: Villa Odysseus and Villa Penelope.
These two nearly identical villas sit side-by-side on the same secluded 4 acres, facing an unmatched view of the Ionian Sea. Rent one to sleep 4, or rent both to sleep 8 and share a holiday to remember.
Both villas have their own private swimming pool suspended above the sea. Each also has its own BBQ grill for a truly memorable alfresco meal.
Views To The Horizon
Take your place on the sea-view hillside, a peaceful and private location with uninterrupted views of the blue horizon. Close your eyes, feel the warm sun on your skin, and breathe in the sea air. Located at the end of a secluded road, you won’t hear any traffic here...just ocean breezes.
Then explore the terrain of this majestic Grecian island. Rent a jeep to see the rugged black fir forests and the wild horses that call these mountains home.
Or spend a scenic afternoon renting a small boat and travel to the serene Lefka Beach, located just under your cliff-side villa. Explore the dazzling sea caves via kayak, or take a short six miles drive to sunbathe on one of the most famous sandy beaches on the island, Lourdas Beach. A great beach for families, Lourdas features boat and canoe rentals, jet ski excursions, and more. Drive just two miles and swim in the sparkling waters of Koroni beach.
From the villa, drive 10 minutes to the Village of Lourdas, where you can savor delicious local fare and explore the colorful culture. Travel a little further to Argostoli, the energetic capitol 15-miles away where delicious food is around every corner as well, or take a leisurely winery tour. Come find your slice of heaven by the sea!
A Holiday to Remember
Kefalonia is gorgeous year-round. One of our favorite times of the year on the island is May or September, when the ocean breezes are calm and the temperature is just right. August is another lovely time to visit: take-in the gorgeous full, blue moon through your bedroom windows.
Our Service
There’s a reason our guests return to stay at our villas year after year. Our family-owned properties have been meticulously maintained and cared for, and we live close by and on-hand for any help you may need...or dinner suggestions!
We always welcome our guests at the airport and will provide any recommendations or assistance you need to be completely comfortable here.

When you arrive you will find a welcome pack with pantry items like a bottle of local wine, fresh seasonal fruits, milk, coffee, sugar, bread, local cheeses, refreshments, beers and more, plus amenities like soaps, shower gel, shampoo, body lotion, bath salts, and a sewing kit.
The villas can accommodate up to 4 adults and a baby up to 2 years old in a baby cot.
The spacious private pool area features umbrellas and wooden deck chairs for sunbathing and a shower. The pool itself (4 x 7 m and max depth 1.70 m) is ecological and water overflowing.
All rooms feature air conditioning and luxury furnishings. Complimentary Wi-Fi is also provided.

Villa Penelope
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2aaaavtq5ai1omz/AADxMZMJQzg1DwRCx76owVlVa?dl=0
As in Greek myth, Penelope is brilliant and versatile. Bring a group of 4 guests and lounge poolside with expansive views of the sea,or take a short drive to explore the shops, eateries and taverns in Lourdas.
INSIDE THE VILLA :
Unwind in a dreamy master suite with a double bed and attached bath with hydro-massage shower.
The 2nd bedroom features 2 twin-sized beds.
From either bedroom, step out onto a private, sunny balcony facing the sea.
For the second bedroom there is a 2nd full bath with a jetted tub.
At the ground floor there is also a WC with a washing machine in it.
Handmade pottery and original paintings, the work of a dear friend, decorate the entire villa.
The charming kitchen provides all the essentials for a seaside dinner.
Fire up the BBQ by the pool. Feast at the dining table and have a glass of local wine to savor on the breezy veranda.
UNPARALLELED LOCATION :
Our private, traffic-free location makes this an ideal spot for quiet, romantic getaways or family holidays.

About the host
Hosted by Paraskevas Chionis
Just a few years ago, my family and I, decided to build this villa on this lovely spot.
We used to come to this land, gazing at the view, as it belonged to my father and my grandfather.
Over the past few years that we’ve been renting this villa, we’ve met exciting people and made great friends.
We personally manage this property putting into it a lot of effort and our passion.
We are only genuine hosts, trying to share with our guests, our love for this place and the island, offering them everything we would like to have, in a home away from home.
