    the landscape and interior are lovely- having a pool and lounge chairs to relax in a quiet olive grove are perfect. being able to get laundry done and not eat out while traveling was a nice break.

    Lovely location 1 mile out of Sami meant it was v quiet and nice walk into town. A few chainsaws and goat bells but that is rural greece.

    The villa was beautifully presented with 3 lovely bedrooms, modern bathrooms with nice toiletries, excellent sitting area and kitchen and a large garage with some outside beanbags stored etc. The pool was nice, not big but fine for a dip - good...

Property info

Situated in the picturesque countryside of Sami, Kefalonia, Penelope Villas promise to offer unique moments of wellness and privacy to those seeking to get in touch with nature while relaxing nearby the sea. The three charming, entirely separate villas, Ariti, Calypso and Nafsika, set among spacious grounds of 2 acres and surrounded by attractive landscaped gardens, are located in a quiet and serene setting, yet close to the center of Sami. All villas come with private swimming pools, along with sun loungers, patio furniture and built in barbecue. Here you are in the valley where you can walk or cycle around the beautiful scenery, swim to the nearest beach of Sami and spend your evenings to the center of the fishing village, where lies a variety of restaurants and cafes. The secluded villas are completely separate, however, they would be ideal for two families or a large group of friends. Tastefully designed and furnished, Penelope Villas are fully air-conditioned or central heated throughout, with bedrooms that benefit en-suite bathrooms and balconies. The villas also provide bicycles free of charge (on request) to the guests who wish to explore the natural surroundings.

Neighborhood info

The peaceful fishing village and harbor of Sami, lying on the east coast of Kefalonia, is the ideal place to settle and organize your excursions to explore the Ionian island. Being the gateway to Ithaca, the small island generally identified with Homer’s Ithaca, that rests opposite to Kefalonia, Sami is famed for being the main spot where the movie “Captain Corelli’s Mandolin” was filmed. The village offers a grate selection of traditional Greek taverns and restaurants, with fresh fish and local specialties are served, as well as cafes and a few bars.
