I can’t recommend this place enough! We absolutely loved our stay here. The location is wonderful- not a far drive from anything and close to tons of amazing restaurants. We stayed with 5 people and had plenty of space. Anne was so proactive and friendly- she gave helpful recommendations and made us feel right at home (even left a welcome basket.) Every issue we had she immediately solved. The pool is refreshing and the view of the ocean is lovely- the photos don’t do it justice. The yard is so well taken care of and I worked out every morning with the most amazing view. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Family holiday Kefalonia

Absolutely stunning villa. Host is very amenable and kept in contact throughout our stay. Anne met us at the car hire office and showed us where the villa was. The villa was spotless, clean and there was a welcome pack for us. Great holiday, thank you.

We were greeted by our hostess upon arrival who was extremely helpful and gracious. She was always available to answer any questions during the week. Our refrigerator was well stocked with essentials as well as snacks in a basket upon arrival. The view was lovely for sunset and star gazing.The airport below made it an extra bonus to watch the planes land and take off. Driving to the villa can be treacherous in the pitch dark with the steep, winding roads. If you encounter an illness during your stay, I would not recommend the doctor listed in the folder provided at the villa. I did not have a positive experience.

Thank you for your lovely comments about Armorel Gold and for recognizing the warm welcome, hospitality and thoughtful touches that we provide. Our villa enjoys an elevated position, offering beautiful sunset views and wonderful opportunities for stargazing. As with many properties in Kefalonia, the surrounding roads are narrow and winding, so taking care when driving, particularly after dark is recommended. We are pleased you enjoyed the views and the opportunity to watch the aircraft, which guests find an interesting feature of the location. We are sorry to hear that your experience with the recommended doctor did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we thank you for choosing Armorel Gold for your stay in Kefalonia.

Beautiful Villa. Amazing view.

We arrived late at night but Anne insisted in meeting us to ensure we found the property and she could explain how everything worked. The villa is beautiful and the view is spectacular. Lidl supermarket close by. 10 minutes from airport. Very close to Argostoli. Villa had everything you would need. Anne even put together a welcome pack with all the essentials we would need to get by until we could get groceries the next day. All bedrooms had their own private bathroom. Our group of six had an amazing time. It was great to come home after a day of sightseeing and relax in the pool in the evening. We would definitely stay here again when we come back to Kefalonia.

Villa with a view

We had a fantastic time relaxing by the pool and making the most of this gorgeous villa. The owner was very helpful and had thought of everything. The welcome pack was an added bonus. Taxis are readily available for nights out, though a little expensive at €20 each trip.

Just the tonic !

The position of the villa is ideal with perfect sunsets and sun throughout the day. We found that we didn’t want to discover much of the island as it took a week to absorb the fine vistas of the locality. Anne was a superb host and nothing was too much trouble, we will be returning !

Utterly fantastic!

I can't begin to describe how fantastic the while experience was. The villa was without fault, with the most amazing views of the sea. The pictures of the villa don't actually do it justice - it and it's surrounding garden were stunning. Anne was fantastic, and the welcome pack was the best I've ever known. Part of the package also included a mid week clean and linen change, which was a real treat! I could not recommend this villa enough.

Lovely, spacious villa with great views!

Our first trip to Kefalonia and it was great to be met at the airport by the villa owner, Anne, who was a very friendly, welcoming and helpful host during our stay. Conveniently located just a short drive from the airport, Lassi, Argostoli and local beaches; this spacious villa is set in its own extensive, private grounds and has lovely views out to sea, where we watched amazing sunsets! The property has everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing holiday and is very well appointed, maintained, clean and tidy. We would highly recommend it.

Superb villa

As regular visitors to Greek Islands for some years we are familar with the range and standard of Villa options and without doubt this is the best two bedroomed Villa we have stayed in. Finished to a very high standard, it benefits from a quiet location and occupies a generous plot with a substantial garden and great view. For those who dont want to travel too far it is also just 10mins from the airport.The pictures don't really do it full justice.Anne,the owner, is a delightful, knowledgeable and completely helpful host.

Amazing luxurious villa

The Villa exceeded our expectations and photographs didnt do it and the view justice. A home from home villa with everything you could possibly need. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. The owner made us feel very welcome and was always at the end of the phone or ten minutes away. Will definately be returning to stay for the most relaxing holiday we have ever had.

Beautiful villa in pefect setting

This is really the most stunning villa in an absoluteley fabulous location in a very quiet setting. Set in beautiful gardens the accommodation is very comfortable and well furnished with everything that you would need for a relaxing holiday. There are views across to Zakynthos to one side and to Lixori and beyond the other side with the ocean and Minnies beach immediately below. The villa is equiped with everything we needed, it was kept very clean including all of the outside areas and pool. It is close to both some good local restaurants and fine beaches and also only a short drive from Argostoli. This is the second time we have stayed here and we would certainly recommend this to friends and family and will certainly be staying there again.

About the host

Hosted by Anne Mitchell

Host profile image
I originate from Scotland but have lived in Kefalonia for 34 years. I married a local man and have two grown-up children, all of whom work in the family jewelry business. Armorel Villas has been welcoming guests since 2013. I have loved meeting new people every summer and seeing old guests return year after year. It gives me great pleasure to know that all my guests have had a wonderful vacation and they love the place as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

This is a great property for families of different generations. If you have teenagers or grandparents who need a bit more space or privacy then the attached studio is perfect for them. The villa has a truly fantastic sea view and from its location, the sunset is wonderful every evening. There is a huge private garden to enjoy which very few villas have to offer and the gated entrance to the property and villa provides security.
