About this property

Kefalonian Sapphire Villa with Spectacular Sea and Mountain Views

From the owners of Villa Anna Rebecca, Kefalonian Sapphire takes its name from the panoramic views that it enjoys of the Ionian Sea. Mount Ainos, the tallest on Kefalonia, is also in perfect view of the villa. A 500 meter walk down to the sandy beaches of Pessada will reward you with relatively untouched naturally beautiful coves for swimming.

Built in 2022, this villa has a traditional Greek design with modern touches and comforts. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and several common gathering areas for your group to enjoy. Because the traditional design places the stairs connecting the two floors on the outside of the villa, we offer a kitchenette on the top floor for guests to access food and drink without needing to come downstairs. Be sure to review our floor plans in the photo section to get a feel for the layout. There is air conditioning in every room of the villa to assure your comfort. For your entertainment, we provide two large screen TVs with a library of over 100 movies, satellite programming and high-speed Starlink WiFi throughout.

On the outside, the villa has a covered veranda and a balcony with pergola for shade. Each has bistro tables to enjoy a morning coffee on our beautifully landscaped grounds. In addition, we have a large traditional Greek BBQ with outdoor dining for 6 people. Just a few steps away is a 32m² private pool with lounge chairs and umbrellas. Throughout the property are gardens of Olive Trees, Lavender, Jasmine, Bougainvillea, Oleander and Rosemary. All this with incredible views of the mountain and sea, with the occasionally anchored yacht enjoying the same peace and tranquility as you are.

The villa is conveniently located to many island activities. You can take a peaceful walk along the rural roads and paths of this cliffside village. Within 10 minutes, you can walk to the secluded coves that make up the small beaches in Pessada. Nearby, you can walk to the port in Pessada where you can have a souvlaki and beer at the outdoor cantina.

Within a 10-minute drive, you can visit St. George's castle, built in the early 16th century. Within a 15-minute drive, you can visit the monastery of Saint Gerasimos for a glimpse of its ornate interior and the mummified body of the saint himself. Argostoli, the capital of Kefalonia, can also be reached with a 15-minute drive. You can visit Argostoli for the fruit markets, souvenirs, bakeries, cafes or many wonderful restaurants. Be sure to spend an evening in the square where you can have an ice cream, frappe, crepe or mixed drink while watching the town come alive and gather. Other notable drives include a visit to the underground Lake Mellisani and Dragorati Cave. It is a beautifully scenic drive to Myrtos Beach and the picturesque towns of Assos, Fiskardo and Sami.

We welcome you to enjoy our home as much as we do on the idyllic Greek island of Kefalonia.

About the host

Hosted by George Totolos

Host profile image
I am a Greek American with deep roots in Kefalonia. My father was born and raised on this idyllic island and still lives there today. Both our sons were baptized in Kefalonia and we continue to visit the island every summer. My wife and I love the spirit and beauty of this island so much that we decided to own a piece of paradise.

Why they chose this property

Whether it is the subtle ringing of church bells at Agios Nikolas or the quiet serenity of the Greek island countryside, this villa in the peaceful village of Pessada offers a spectacular immersion of natural beauty, situated between the towering Mount Ainos and the Ionian Sea.

What makes this property unique

With an unobstructed view of the sea, Kefalonian Sapphire provides a sensation that you are on the bow of ship, alone on the ocean. We have taken the time to create an atmosphere of luxury and serenity when we built our home in Pessada. We would love to share this experience with you.
