We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Afroditi.We were able to check in a bit earlier as there wasn’t anyone staying the night before us.The hosts welcomed us with some amazing food, including meat, salads and bread.The villa is near the airport, but didn’t give us any concerns during our visit as flights aren’t very frequent. We were a group of 9 and would certainly recommend it.

Dear Kevin,
thanks so much for the marvelous review and kind comments, it is really appreciated.
You will be welcome back at anytime in the future if you wish to visit Kefalonia once again.
Take care and thank you once again
An amazing villa with the kindest host! Panagis is incredibly friendly, helpful and generous, and he made us feel so welcome — it genuinely felt more like visiting our Greek family than staying in a holiday rental.We’ve stayed in many villas all over Greece over the years, and this is easily one of the cleanest and best cared-for we’ve experienced. The villa is lovely, with a fantastic pool and outdoor area, and it’s in a great location for the airport, beaches and local tavernas. The sunsets are unbelievable. You will need a hire car to make the most of the area.Panagis really goes above and beyond as a host. The homemade wine was delicious, and the wonderful meal he had prepared for us when we arrived was such an unexpected and generous surprise!We had a fantastic stay and would very happily return. Thank you, Panagis, for making us feel so at home!

Dear Darren, many thanks for the marvelous review, it is really appreciated and hopefully we will see you again in the future, as it will be our pleasure to welcome you back. Take care.
We absolutely loved staying at Villa Aphrodite. Peter the host was so sweet and amazing and made us feel at home away from home. We had a group of 10 stay for a wedding here and it was perfect, the pool and day bed were amazing with views of the ocean and it was perfectly close to town. The house was very clean and had many amenities including washer and gym! We would stay here over and over again. We love you Peter!!!

Absolutely amazing location near Argostoli. The airport is nearby, but the noise is barely noticeable.Panagis is an exceptional host. We have never experienced such outstanding hospitality before. He welcomed us with fresh fruit, prepared delicious traditional Greek meals for us, stocked the fridge with everything we needed before our arrival, and was always happy to help us make the most of our vacation.The accommodation is very spacious, with a fantastic pool and a lovely outdoor daybed where you can watch the sunset.Highly recommended—we would love to come back!

Dear Erwin, what a fabulous review, thank you very much. We would hope to see you and your family once again at anytime and we would welcome you with the same hospitality as always.
Thanks once again for the great review.
Everything about this rental is perfect. Plenty of space indoor and outdoor. Great views. Easy access to everywhere on the island. Absolutely amazing host - I’ve stayed in a million vrbos and he’s in a class of his own. I’d give it more stars if I could and I would, and will, stay here again!

Dear Matthew, many thanks for the amzing review and so glad you had asuch a gret time with us. You will be welcome back anytime.
Couldn't ask for a better, more friendly and attentive host. We arrived as guests and left as friends. We wanted for nothing!Upon arrival, the fridge was well stocked with all of the essentials and the host was there to greet us and walk us through the property. The property is fantastic for a group but equally lovely for a family. The pool is amazing and there are a large selection of pool toys for all ages.Inside the rooms are all spacious and well equipped with everything from robes and slippers to an iron and board. For those who like plane spotting, this is the perfect place but also we were not disturbed by them. They added to the holiday.The host also cooked us a couple of amazing dinners including a large tray of bbq meats and salads for our first evening.A car is desirable as there are no taverns or bars within easy walking distance but taxis are easily available at, seemingly, 20 for every journey.Overall, an amazing villa, an amazing host and a fantastic place for a family gathering. We will return.

Dear Karen,
thanks a million for the review and the really kind words, very appreciated.
Of course, you would be welcome back at anytime in the future, so hopefully see you very soon once again.
Thank you once again and kind regards.
This villa was such a great choice for our trip, we wished we stayed longer. We travelled as a group of 10 (9 adults & 1 child) and there always felt like there was plenty of space for everyone. The villa also has space for 2 vehicles covered in a shady spot which is so helpful when travelling with large groups. The villa itself is clean, comfortable and located in a really good spot. It really is a lovely place to spend time. Spasmata beach is only a 5 minutes drive away too if you wish to get to a nice local beach.As others mentioned we arrived to a lovely home cooked spread of food and a stocked fridge full of wine and soft drinks, can’t ask for better than that after a day of travelling.Panagis is super helpful as well, we had to take my daughter to the hospital for an issue and he offered without hesitation to take us there so we knew exactly where to go. Panagis really is the gold standard of hosting. He was so helpful and his villa was absolutely lovely, wouldn’t hesitate to stay again given the opportunity.10/10

We loved the villa, couldn't wish for a better place. It was clean and well stocked with equipment for our stay, a wonderful meal was waiting for us when we arrived.The pool was the icing on the cake! Plenty of pool toys, sunbeds and cleaned and tidied every morning. The giant sunbed was the favourite with us all, renamed the Storybed, accommodating up to 5 in an evening, best view of sunset. Definitely ideal for multi generational family holidays, a quiet area but close to larger towns and beaches with car hire.Panagis is an excellent host, nothing is too much trouble, just ask and you will get it.Local people are also very friendly, helpful and speak very good English.

Thank you for the review and apologies that the property was not closer to facilities, but we always try to advise guests that a car hire is a must.
Thanks again
We travelled as a family multi generational group, youngest 3years to oldest 80years. Our host was very welcoming and had made us a meal waiting for us when we arrive, so we didn’t need to go to the supermarket till the next day. After a long day of traveling it was a real treat. There were pool toys, beach chairs, beach umbrella, and pool/beach towels all at the property. Place was spotless and they came back to clean again after three days (we stayed a week). Secure parking within a gated area. Three bedrooms in the main house, one on the ground floor which was great for our toddler and her parents as after she had gone to bed they could be sat by the pool and the room was only a few feet away with no stairs to worry about. Second two bedrooms in a self contained lower apartment. It’s close to the airport so we had made enquiries about the plane noise but planes are infrequent and it really did not bother us at all. Would be very happy to stay again and to recommend to friends and family.

Dear Andrea,
many thanks for the lovely review, it is really appreciated. You would be welcomed back at anytime, as you were the perfect guests and left the villa as you found it.
Thanks once again.
We had the most brilliant holiday in Villa Afroditi. Peter was a fab host, the house and apartment below is great and well maintained. He was on hand for any small issues we had. We also hired the villa next door so had plenty of room and great spaces to socialise. We loved it, thank you Peter
Absolutely wonderful, when we arrived Peter the host welcomed us in to Villa Affroditi and showed us around, he also laid on food and drink for when we arrived, which was so thoughtfull, the positioning of the property was ideal close to the airport, and a great view looking over the ocean. The villa itself is just perfect for a family, the bedrooms, kitchen lounge was just perfect, the swimming pool was excellent, a fantastic weeks holiday
Will i come again Most Definately,

Hi Steve,
it was a pleasure to have you as guests and we would welcome you back in a heartbeat.
Thank you
My family and I have enjoyed our 10 days stay here and had a wonderful time. The host was amazing and greeted us with a delicious feast and lots to drink when we arrived. Peter was always there to help and he gave us lovely tips on places to go and activities that were available. The house was very clean and spacious with stunning views. The location was perfect and we couldn’t get the younger ones and some older ones out of the pool. I look forward to returning again with my family to visit and I would highly recommend staying here.

We stayed here for 3 days, and couldnt appreciate the owners hospitality enough. Best experience ever. Location is great, close to airport and Argostolli. Great views, clean property n lovely pool.The owner, a fan of cooking, prepared us lots traditional greek food, provided fruits, milk and few bottles of wine n fridge stocked with cold drinks n milk etc , all to last us during the entire stay. Cant appreciate enough.

We had the most fantastic time at this villa. We were warmly welcomed by Peter and nothing was too much trouble throughout our whole stay. There were so many lovely touches - a fridge full of food and drink and inflatables for the kids already in the pool! The villa was spotless and the beds so comfortable.

Fantastic villa
Group of 8 came out for long bank holiday weekend. Was greeted by owner, who could not have been more helpful. Lovely touch of home made pastries, fruit bowl and even wine and beer in fridge!
Villa was fantastic, had everything we needed. Great views of sea and runway, which we loved. Great base 5 min from airport.
Would love to return.

Many thanks for the lovely review, you will be welcome back at anytime you wish!
The villa is amazing and everything we hoped it would be.
When we arrived we had a warm welcome with some amazing cooked food and a fridge full of items.
It is the best welcome I have ever received.
The villa was spotless, so was the pool and surrounding areas.
The location is perfect with everything you need close by such as bars, restaurants, shops and beach.
We had the most incredible holiday all thanks to a high quality villa and an unbelievable host.
We hope to return one day!

Hi Ryan,
your comments are really appreciated and you will be welcome anytime.
Peter is the kindest and loveliest man, he lives next door and brought us fresh figs ! There was a beautiful feast ready waiting for the 8 of us when we arrived prepared by him. Honestly we were blown away by his hospitality and how thoughtful he was. The views are excellent and the outside space perfect for the 8 of us age 13-82. Plane spotting was exciting and the distance to 3 beaches super close these are lesser known and suited us just perfectly. We would wholly recommend this property in Minies and the special Greek hospitality you will receive from the loveliest man.
