"Our second stay, room a little tired. The breakfast is very good, staff helpful and friendly. We loved the adults only pool. The only this that spoilt it was the penny pinching attitude to in-room drinks; charging €1 each for tea bags is beyond mean! We went out and bought our own."

How do I ensure I have booked a pet-friendly room in Kefalonia?
To ensure you've booked a pet-friendly room on Expedia, use the filters in your search and select "Pet friendly" under the "Amenities" section. This will narrow your options to properties that allow pets. Once you find a hotel you're interested in, click on it and review the "Policies" section for specific details about their pet policy. This often includes information about pet types, size restrictions, fees, and whether pets are allowed in all rooms or only certain ones.When selecting your room type, read the room description to check that its pet-friendly, as not all rooms in a pet-friendly hotel may accommodate pets. For added peace of mind, contact the hotel directly to confirm the room you've selected allows pets.
What pet-friendly activities should we do in Kefalonia?
While Kefalonia offers many beautiful sights, it's important to note that Greece has specific regulations regarding pets in public spaces, particularly beaches and archaeological sites. Pet-friendly activities often focus on natural outdoor areas where dogs are generally welcome, provided they are kept on a lead and any mess is cleaned up.

For those travelling with a canine companion, exploring the island's many walking trails and natural landscapes is a fantastic option. The Ainos National Park, for example, offers stunning views and various paths suitable for walks. While dogs aren't permitted inside protected wildlife areas, the wider park trails are generally accessible. Just ensure your dog is well-behaved and kept on a lead to respect the local wildlife and other visitors.

Many of Kefalonia's less crowded, unorganised beaches can also be suitable for a visit with your pet, especially during quieter times of the day or outside peak season. Beaches without facilities or organised sunbeds tend to be more relaxed about pets. For example, some of the smaller coves around the Paliki peninsula or the quieter stretches of coastline near Fiscardo might offer a pleasant spot for you and your dog to enjoy the sea air. Always check for local signage and be mindful of other beachgoers.

When dining out, look for tavernas and cafes with outdoor seating. Many establishments are happy to accommodate well-behaved dogs in their outdoor areas. It's always best to ask permission first. Places in smaller, less touristy villages might be more accommodating than those in bustling town centres.
What amenities should I look for in a pet-friendly hotel in Kefalonia?
When selecting a hotel in Kefalonia for you and your pet, look for amenities like food and water bowls, pet-friendly outdoor spaces and pet beds. You may find hotels that go the extra mile with pet-friendly dining options, treats and toys. It's also worth looking to see if there are any pet-friendly parks or walking trails nearby.

When you're on the property listing page, simply click on "Policies" to see what pet-specific policies the hotel implements.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a pet-friendly hotel in Kefalonia as a package?
