White Rocks Hotel Kefalonia

The White Rocks reputation obviously goes before it. Very special hotel. We’ve had a lovely stay. The hotel room was excellent, I would just suggest that having a good coffee machine in the room would take it up a level. Sadly the sound proofing in the room meant we could hear the person in the next room snoring in the middle of the night! We stayed half board. The breakfast was superb. So much choice and excellent coffee. The evening meal was very repetitive and on occasion not great options. That said all the food was fresh and presented well. The reception and cleaning staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. The bar staff too. In the restaurant, I know they are busy but the staff were a bit aloof. To improve the hotel a safe walkway into the resort of Lassi would be good. The small private beach was disappointing. We preferred and used the beach next to it. Great to have beach towels to use. The pool area was lovely but it had very limited loungers.

The perfect location for complete relaxation. I have visited White Rocks a few times and each time is such a warm welcome. Friendly staff who are always professional and helpful. The beach bar is the perfect location with a delicious drinks and food menu. The cleanliness of this hotel is outstanding (both inside and outside). I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone wishing a relaxing and blissful holiday. Can’t wait to return!

Incredible hotel, incredible staff, incredible wedding day. We stayed at the immaculate White Rocks Hotel and also had our wedding at this venue. It has been an experience that will live with my wife and I forever thanks to the staff, scenery, hotel room and overall experience. I’d encourage anyone to book a stay here while staying in Kefalonia. The suite with pool was outstanding, fresh towels including beach towel, rooms serviced daily and the most comfortable double sun bed ever! Breakfast variety and quality also fantastic. Thanks to all at White Rocks for making our stay unforgettable. Mr & Mrs Grey.

Fabulous Hotel , Wonderful Location ,Fabulous People, The Food is quite Exceptional very well run and family owned which gives you the personnel touch the staff can’t do enough for you. To many people to thank for making our holiday perfect but here’s a few Gerasimus , John , Maria , Aubrey I could go on and on 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Nice room seaview overlooking local beaches. However, 4* in Greece usually only means 3* as is White Rocks case. Buffet meals boring and same every day, rarely any Greek food included (we like Greek food so had to go to local restaurants to get it). Pool too small & not enough poolside proper beds. Away from the pool back-breaking great big beanbags only on offer. Despite masses of pines in the grounds no other shady areas available to sit in apart from the hotel terrace. Right by the road so seaview room essential.

Had a great time at White Rocks. Food was very good, bungalow overlooking the ocean was beautiful, roomy and clean and great views. Staff in all areas very helpful and attentive, especially front desk. The beach is a bit rocky but with shoes is OK. Spent a lot of time snorkelling around to the tiny private sandy beach about 150 yards to the left of the beach. The water was crystal clear and it was like having our own little hideaway, saw no one on it all week, stunning but not easy to get to unless your confident in deep water. Pool is nice and cold to cool off in, and the beanbag beds are so comfortable - they are just a delight. Reception sorted a car and we did the caves (4/10) and Melsanni blue waters 9/10. Then went to Assos town which was stunning and better than Fiskado which was nice, but didn't have the feel of Assos. Went to Argostoli to see the Loggerhead turtles, that was a real highlight, but get there before 10am so see them as the fishing boats finish emptying there nets then they go, such graceful things. Didn't much like the local town and the walk at night is a bit hairy if your not confident, only went once for some mixers. Only two very small gripes, coffee IMO should be included with dinner at night, not a paid for extra, and the bank of lights for the room alarms, smoke etc, were so bright and flashed all night so had to cover them up.

We chose the White Rocks Hotel after extensive research as it had all our requirements for a peaceful relaxing holiday. We stayed in a sea view room in the main building which had plenty of space and was kept immaculate by the house maids. Fresh towels and beach towels daily. Tea and coffee, fridge and safe. Plenty wardrobe space which was great for our 2 week stay. The glass panel on the balcony was great for uninterrupted views. To be able to hear the waves from your bed for me is bliss. We mixed it up daily between pool, private beach and the beach below our balcony. The private beach is small but lovely and as others have mentioned beach shoes are handy. The public beach has quite a few steps down to it and a security gate so only hotel guests can come back in. We didn’t find the steps a problem and the beach is lovely, Sandy and clear water. We have been to lots of beaches in different countries and this is my favourite by far. 2 Sun loungers €10 for the day. The pool has the comfiest loungers, music and snacks and drinks available from the bar. The only negative was other guests racing to put towels on beds. The pool opens at 9am and we would queue however when the chain was removed to open some guests jumped over other chains and ran to the beds therefore ignoring the queue. Not the hotels fault, down to rude individuals. It was our first time staying anywhere HB as we normally choose B&B and eat in different places at night but it was fantastic. Great variety and plenty of variations each night. The salads and fruit salads were lovely as well as the cakes. I don’t think my husband had the same soup any night. Well done to the chef. The holiday was a well needed recharge as well as Anniversary for us and that is what we definitely got. We didn’t venture to the places we planned other than Argostoli as we just wanted to relax. Staff members were friendly band polite. Special mention to Sophie in the restaurant who always remembered our drinks orders and would have them ready for us, making us feel welcome. Also to Cristos at the pool bar who would know our lunch order and drinks before we would even ask. He was the happiest most polite staff member at the pool and took time to acknowledge everyone including children playing. I would highly recommend staying at White Rocks Hotel. We had a fantastic stay and look forward to celebrating and recharging again in Summer 2024.

Stayed here in June this year, what a lovely hotel, in a great position for exploring the local area & further afield. Never had a problem getting a sun bed by the pool & the bar staff came around the pool frequently delivering your lovely cold drinks. Quite a steep climb back to our bungalow but we had been warned, and we did have a lovely view from our room so can't complain. Really enjoyed a trip to Argostoli by taxi to see the turtles, a must see. We did a Jet2 island tour which was very good & also a tour with KCG in Lassi, can recommend them, as we wanted to go to Assos & Fiskardo so glad we did. They picked us up & dropped us off outside the hotel & it was a really good day out. The buffet food is very good but we did dine out a couple of nights at Ionio & Nefeli for a change, can recommend them both. We did have a problem with the air condtioning whilst we were there but the hotel went above & beyond in resolving the matter, many thanks to Ioli Psalidas the reservations manager who couldn't have done any more for us. All in all a most enjoyable stay thank you White Rocks.

I can’t get over the experience I had in this hotel! The best resort I've ever stayed in! My first positive surprise was that the hotel upgraded our double room to a sea view as it was low season therefore we got to experience cricket and sea noise 24/7 which I loved! The location: probably my favourite thing about this hotel! It is located on the cliff facing the sea in between pine trees with terrace and restaurant from where you can watch sunset every evening. It's remote enough to relax in peace if this is what you want but also close enough to Lassi village which is literally in 10 min walking distance where you can have a drink or dinner in taverns. There are a few shops, a few bars and taverns and quite a few public beaches you can access. It costs 8 euros to get to Argostoli town though by taxi which is 10 min drive, if you want to get out of the village. Probably not ideal for people with mobility issues but at the same time the resort gives older people a perfect opportunity to stretch their legs in between meals and sunbathing breaks. The vibe: Very buojee and luxury vibes inside and outside of the hotel with some cultural/authentic elements in their decor. I'd say this is a perfect hotel for couples, it's extremely romantic. It's also a perfect place for someone who is physically active and doesn't mind walking up and down as the hotel is on the cliff so steps and longer walking distances between the bungalows, beach bar and the main restaurant can't be avoided. They even have a yoga deck at the very end of the resort in a perfectly quiet place for meditation and yoga - loved it! So that gives a bit of a retreat vibe as well. Rooms: The resort offers hotel rooms that are closer to the public beach (right on the doorstep) and bungalows with and without private pools on the other side of the resort right next to the private beach, beach bar and the pool. We had a double sea view room with a balcony on the first floor which was a perfect size for 2, very clean, modern decor. Nice showers with a cheeky little window to the room. Little fridge, kettle, tiny hairdryer ( I always take my own with me anyway), spacious wardrobe - everything you need! The only downside is probably the noise that sometime came from the public beach at night time or the restaurant. If you keep balcony door closed then you'll be fine but because I don't the acoustics with the hotel being on the cliff makes it sound like everything is happening right on your balcony. So earplugs probably is required. If you are staying in the bungalows then you probably won't experience this issue at all as they are located much further. I've noticed there are some rooms facing the road though so I am not sure my experience would be the same f i'd have to stay in one of them… Food: we were on half board basis. They have a buffet, a restaurant and a beach bar on site and they give you an option to swap your evening meal to a lunch meal in the beach bar for example (which
