Sami Beach Hotel
9.5 (63 reviews)

Sami Beach Hotel ★★★

📍 Karavomilos, Sami

"We had a great week at Sami Beach and will definitely return in a couple of years as still lots of Kefalonia to see, Sami makes a great base for this. As other reviews have said, staff are excellent, very clean everywhere, breakfast good, rooms a decent size, large car park, good pool and beach with loungers, views to die for all round. Sami is a lovely town and we had some great meals out then a lovely walk back along the sea front. One negative for us was that the balconies are very small with no privacy and we were unlucky to have smokers and vapers next door which stopped us from enjoying sitting out a lot of the time. Not sure what can be done other than having one floor smoke free perhaps? All in all a lovely place for a holiday and see you in a couple of years we hope. Barry and Debbie"

Garbis Villas & Apartments ★★★

📍 Lourdas, Lourdhata

"Lovely apartment for the two of us. Very clean and had all equipment needed to be self catered. Quiet as expected in October. Most restaurants still open and lots to choose from within walking distance. Garbis family made us feel very welcome. As for most of Kefalonia, I advise renting a car. We managed to explore most of the island from Lourdas. Would definitely stay again. Thank you"

📍 3rd Km, Odos Skala - Poros, Skala, Elios Proni

"Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Great facilities, decent size rooms and very comfy beds. The best thing about this hotel though is the amazing staff……….nothing is too much trouble. I must in particular mention Evelyn and Franklin who were amazing! My main gripe unfortunately was that there is no air con in the seating areas in the dining room but would thoroughly recommend this hotel"

Electra Kefalonia Hotel & Spa ★★★★★

📍 Ammes, Svoronata, Livathou

"The hotel is lovely from start to finish we enjoyed every part of our stay, nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is fairly close to the airport but that didn’t bother us. If you’re a plane spotter then this hotel is for you! The breakfast was lovely with plenty of choice. Again the food at dinner was lovely but we would have liked more choice on the menu as when you are half board we didn’t find there were that many dishes available and becomes a bit repetitive. We would definitely stay at the Electra again. Thank you for a lovely stay."

Casaly Hotel & Spa

"We stayed a week in this wonderful hotel. The staff were brilliant and made sure we had a fantastic stay, in the hotel and on the island. Katarina, Martine and Maria in particular were very helpful. All the facilities, not forgetting the spa, are first class and the food and drink are great. Loved the breakfasts and evening meals right by the sea. High class base for a visit to Kefalonia. We will be back."

Eliámos Villas Hotel & Spa – Relais & Châteaux Hotels in Kefallinia

Eliámos Villas Hotel & Spa – Relais & Châteaux

"This is an exceptionally good hotel and we enjoyed it very much. It's the first time I've stayed in a hotel like this and the communal pool has been so quiet - absolutely zero stress about will we get a sun lounger. The hotel is so small and intimate you feel really well cared for and heard. Our room was beautiful and we enjoyed the breakfast and food in the restaurant - very good. We had a massage and facial too - both excellent. Really beautiful views also. Found all the staff to be really kind and helpful. A truly wonderful and relaxing place to stay and we will return. Only downside is I think the price point is quite high but that wouldn't stop me coming again. We hired a car which I would say is a must. We loved Dafnoudi Beach in the north, Assos, hiring a boat for the day and going to the volcanic beach and white rock beach and the underground lake caves."

Ionian Emerald Resort Hotels in Kefallinia

Ionian Emerald Resort

"Very good hotel we stayed in a superior room with pool and sea view which was ok but the bathroom needs updating. Plus points however are it was kept spotlessly clean by the maid Adriana who seemed to be always cleanjng. The breakfast room was very inviting with plenty of choices and the two ladies there were very pleasant and helpful. The pool didn't really have a shallow end so not suitable for non -swimmers as was stated by several people because difficult to access. Lovely setting with small private beach. Two tavernas close by but no local supermarket. There was however a bakery. Easy stroll into Sami about 20 minutes where there are many excellent restaurants. Please note that the sister hotel Athina has use of the pool. The Athina bar however at night is lovely with reasonable prices. Bar at the Emerald lacks atmosphere and is usually empty."

Makis Hotel Hotels in Kefallinia

Makis Hotel

"The 5 star rating is for the hotel, based on it being a 3 star hotel. The resort would receive a different rating. Less and less I like big hotels. Makis Hotel hits the right note in terms of big enough to offer all you need, but not too big as to be too busy. Our room was of standard size, overlooking the water and offered all that was necessary. Breakfast offered enough choice for the star rating. Staff were very friendly. The pool and bar area were comfortable and bar food was very enjoyable. You can hire pool towels for a 10€ cash deposit and they can be changed on alternate days. My only disappointment is the usual nonsense of people reserving sun beds before breakfast. The hotel signage advises people that it’s not allowed and that towels will be removed. Unfortunately this isn’t adhered to, as we had many people reserve the same Cabana/sunbeds every day and for extended periods, not always use them. Like many, I find this performance very annoying, but in the end the hotel advised that they didn’t want to Police it and so despite being willing to follow the rules, we had no choice but to adopt the same reservation system. I’m sure the hotel would find alternative beds should none be available, but that’s not the point. The hotel is less than 5mins. walk to the small centre of Skala. Having travelled extensively throughout Greece/the world, we found the resort underwhelming. Whilst there were enough restaurants to choose from, the menus were usually very similar. We can recommend Oinos Wine Bar, for both simple, quality food and wine (knowledge as well) selection and Mikelatos Restaurant, for great quality and well presented food. The main street is quite short, offering limited and repetitive retail options and whilst pretty enough by night, didn’t greatly excite if staying for more than a few nights. At the time of our visit, the resort appeared largely populated by Brits and a few Eastern Europeans. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, (were very happy with the hotel), though pleased we took a days car hire to find something more authentically Greece, as Skala could be anywhere!"

Liberatos Village

"Stayed in July after a problem.with our original booked hotel. Overall really enjoyed our 2 weeks here. Pros Super comfy sunbeds and always some available. Pool was lovely and very clean View from room was fabulous Room while basic was large and clean Most staff were lovely and very helpful. Cons Bar prices every expensive While we didn't sample the breakfast. It looked very expensive at 15 euros for what was on offer. Hotel just 2 minutes walk away were charging 8 euro for a full delicious breakfast. The hill. Wow!! that was some hill. The biggest issue we found was the extremely rude member of staff who we were told was the manager. You won't get the the friendly Greek welcome and hospitality that we found from the rest of the staff and in the resort from this person."

Tetra Retreat Hotels in Kefallinia

Tetra Retreat

"We had the same experiences a lot of other people with the hotel not actually being ready yet. We managed to get a refund from travelodeal, it wasn’t easy but we did and kept our flights. We are now in Kefalonia at a different resort so yesterday we decided to investigate for ourselves. We started to enter the unfinished grounds which are easily accessible but must be surrounded by CCTV as we were soo accosted by the owners and site security. After explaining to the the issue with ourselves and many others they were keen to show us the issue they had and it was a problem with getting the water supply in and the utility contractors making a mess of it. They then offered to take us round the complex and to be quite honest we were taken aback with the beauty of it and attention to detail. The rooms are beautiful and the views from your bed ( yes the beds are in and waiting ) over the ocean are mind blowing. The water supply is now resolved and they are planning on opening in April/ may next year. It will definitely be worth the wait and the owners are desperate for some good feedback after all their issues. I do think a lot of responsibility lies with the lack of honesty from the tour operators."

Mouikis Hotel Kefalonia Hotels in Kefallinia

Mouikis Hotel Kefalonia

"The hotel has a great location, not far from the beach, and plenty of restaurants nearby. There's a small supermarket to the right of the hotel entrance where you can buy yogurt and other similar items. Behind the hotel is a commercial street where you can shop, but the shop owners are quite casual, and some close very early. The room has a small balcony, not too big or too small. The only drawback is the poorly designed bathroom; the shower is too small, and the toilet paper isn't even next to the toilet! You can arrange airport or ferry pick-up through the hotel on Ctrip, but this will incur an additional fee."

Emelisse Nature Resort Hotels in Kefallinia

Emelisse Nature Resort

"Hotel is positioned on a beautiful part of the island. The grounds are lush and pool is great. We loved everything here as far as the environment, views, amenities and our room, but the service was quite poor specially with the front desk. Our room was directly by the pool, and two nights in a row live music was playing at the pool restaurant until 11pm, which is great if you are there enjoying it, but not when you have a small child and trying to put them to bed. The next day when I told the front desk member that the music was very loud in our room and we were unable to sleep he just said yes we can play music until 11. When I pushed further and asked if we could be moved the answer was no. And that was that. I was stunned at this terrible customer service. I appreciate the hotel was fully booked but a simple gesture, an apology or sympathy would have gone a long way."

A lovely hotel, all very clean (rooms cleaned each day), a great location (on the beach, a 15 minute walk along the shore to Sami and everywhere else within easy driving distance), excellent swimming pool and other facilities. Thank you!"

"Second visit back to Garbis Villas and all was as we remembered - peaceful, welcoming, great views, relaxed but professional hosts. Amazing views across to Zakynythos and down to Lourdas Beach. Rooms cleaned daily and fresh towels/sheets throughout our visit. A very special place that is a slice of heaven. We will be back."

La Signora Hotel ★★★
"Just returned from a fabulous 10 day break at La Signora. Lovely hotel in a delightful setting with easy access to the beach. Yes there is a steep hill, but as someone said previously if you did your homework you would know that. All the staff are really friendly and helpful, and when we ate there on the jazz night the food was as good as any of the restaurants we tried. Reception made car hire simple and there are delightful places to visit all within easy reach. I couldn’t find fault with the hotel and would recommend to anyone."

Kefalonia Bay Palace by Ghh ★★★★
"The hotel is beautiful, we stayed in a gorgeous villa with a private pool which was immaculate and reading other reviews was expecting out of date decor, but it’s gorgeous and traditional! The view is unbelievable, I can’t put into words how stunning it was ❤️ THE STAFF I have never experienced service like it; they were just wonderful! Couldn’t do enough for you and everything felt so genuine. Thank you so much to all the incredible people who work there for making our stay so special. It is a steep trek up to the hotel but you can take your time and I would suggest doing the stairs and taking a break at the pool bar to have a delicious cocktail to break up the walk. Would highly recommend this hotel and the town it’s set in was incredible too. Didn’t have one bad meal or experience anything but wonderful service anywhere we went ❤️"

Electra Kefalonia Hotel & Spa ★★★★★
"I came here for a week in June with my husband. It delivered on every level. The view was incredible: purple sunsets, clear blue skies. The pace of life was calm and soothing. The food was delicious (we did half board and thought it was excellent value for money). The facilities were great: main pool was pretty, there were always plenty of sun loungers and you could have cocktails (/wonderful draught Alfa beers) delivered to you while you read a book. Other guests were generally respectful of the atmosphere - no loud conversations etc. - and that really helped contribute to the ambiance. The staff could not have been more friendly. The gym was decent enough for a week of workouts. You can take your pool towels down to the beach (where two sun loungers can be yours for 20€ per day) and if you want to rent bikes or a car, the concierge can arrange for them to be delivered to the hotel for you. If you’re looking for a stunning view, excellent facilities, friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, then you would struggle to find much better than this. It’s worth knowing that there are 4-15 flights per day that go overhead, but you get used to them and they don't run late into the night or early in the morning! Oh, and you can get to Argostoli by bus (30ish mins) and the bus stop is 100m from the hotel. Taxis from the airport are mysteriously 20€ (even though it's a 5 min journey) but some drivers are amenable to haggling. If you don’t want to eat lunch at the hotel every day, you can grab a sandwich and a beer from Tropicana, also about 100m from the hotel."
