It's close to the shops and tavernas of Agia Efimia as well as some great beaches in Kefalonia. The host mentioned in an early communication that they wanted to make our stay as pleasant as possible and we've come away knowing this was not an empty promise. They simply couldn't do enough whether through equiping the property, providing advice about the surroundings or telling us about how to make homemade lemonade. Thanks for the stay. ##### Wun Fung C. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sonja B. 16 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sehr zentral Die Vermieter haben uns sehr freundlich empfangen.Das Haus liegt sehr zentral an einer Straße, die leider von vielen LKWs und Bussen befahren wird. Es ist dadurch leider ziemlich laut. Dafür ist die Nähe zu den Restaurants und Geschäften hervorragend. Das Bett ist sehr bequem und die Ausstattung des Hauses gut. Ein großer Vorteil ist der Autostellplatz am Haus. ##### Sonja B.
