    I wasn’t ready for this!

    A stunning hotel with spectacular sea views from the room and the pool area. The little beach is a hidden gem, and the warm, friendly staff enhanced our stay significantly. Just be prepared for lots of steps! The dining options could use improvement.

    Group of friends nice experience

    We stayed here with a group for our wedding and the staff were so friendly and helpful, made our time special. The view from the pool area was lovely and unmatched, just amazing to see every day.

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive but still acceptable.

    stunning views

    Just a smart choice for a short stayover in Pilarei with reasonable price. The staff worked hard to keep the rooms spotless every day, which was appreciated. Make sure to be ready for the steep steps for those stunning views.

    vibrant rooms
    stunning sea view
    steep paths

    What a stunning spot with those vibrant rooms! The sea view from our balcony was fab, and that mini Prosecco in the fridge was a delightful surprise!

    Just remember, those steep paths might have you questioning your life choices—thank goodness for the views as a distraction!

    limited amenities

    Staying at this beautiful villa was perfect for our family. The private pool was a hit with the babies, and the stunning views made our mornings magical. The location was great too, with easy access to local restaurants and beaches!

    My kids wished there were more amenities for toddlers.

    Stunning Views and Relaxing Pool Experience

    We had a lovely stay in a two-bedroom villa with fantastic sea views. The private pool was a rare gem, perfect for unwinding after exploring the beautiful island. Pro tip, pack some snacks for the pool as the nearby facilities aren't conveniently located.

    The stunning views from our room were unforgettable! 🌅 The only downside was the hard beds, but the quiet atmosphere made it worth it. Wish they had more options for breakfast too.

    The pool area was fantastic with plenty of sunbeds. The nearby beach was perfect for a quick dip. The views from the balcony were amazing, especially at sunrise. We also made great use of the bar that had excellent cocktails!

    breathtaking view
    private pool
    charming village
    bland food
    maintenance issues
    stairs access

    I recently stayed at Kefalonia Bay Palace and the view from my room was breathtaking. Waking up every morning to see the bay was amazing. The location is within walking distance to charming villages and local tavernas. I loved my spacious villa, especially the private pool that provided a relaxing escape. The staff were friendly and always helpful when I needed anything. The breakfast options were decent, but sometimes lacked variety and flavor. The evening meals were hit and miss, with some dishes not up to par. On a few occasions, the food served was bland or not fresh. The hotel itself is perched on a hill, and although I enjoyed the workout from the many stairs, it could be tough for those with mobility issues. A little maintenance around the property could really enhance the experience, as I noticed some areas showing wear and tear. Overall, the location and views made it worth the stay, despite the dining limitations.

    beach views
    poor dining
    difficult accessibility

    The stunning beach views were truly breathtaking.

    Our stay was quite disappointing. The food at the hotel was barely edible, leading us to seek meals elsewhere despite having paid for dinner. Additionally, the hotel is situated on a steep hillside, which made getting around extremely challenging for us, especially with ongoing maintenance issues and broken amenities. We encountered many stairs and elevators that didn’t reach all levels, which was exhausting after long days of exploration.

    breathtaking views
    lovely pool
    outdated rooms
    limited dining options

    The breathtaking views and lovely pool truly make this place special, despite the many steps required to access everything. Staff were incredibly friendly, but the outdated rooms could use some attention. Dining options were limited, and some food was lukewarm, leading us to explore local restaurants instead.

    private pool
    stunning views
    bland breakfast

    Had an amazing time with friends! Our villa was perfect, spacious, and we loved the private pool. The stunning views from the terrace were a highlight. We took day trips to nearby beaches and local tavernas, which were only a short drive away. Don't miss out on exploring the beautiful scenery!

    One downside was the food at the hotel. Despite breakfast being included, a few mornings we found it quite bland and unappetizing, which was disappointing.
