Top Melissani Cave Lake Hotel Reviews

KALLISTI beachfront/lavish decoration/15 steps to water/superb sea view/115m2

10/10 Excellent

"Kallisti was the perfect vacation home for our 5 night stay. The balcony has wonderful views of sunrise and at night you can listen to the wave crashing on shore. Nasia has thought of everything! The place was fully stocked with all the essentials you would need for the stay and she even had a welcome basket with wine and biscuits upon arrival. We would love to stay there again if we visit the island."

Modern comfortable villa with private pool and stunning view

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home! Perfect location five minutes from Sami, near lots of great restaurants and beaches, and the accommodation was comfortable for our family of five. Our kids loved the pool, and the view was 🙌. Spiros was friendly and hospitable. We wished we had stayed longer!"

Meliti Waterfront Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the Ammos suite which was beautiful and had direct views of the sea on 2 sides of the property. Staff were very helpful especially the Operations Manager, Vasilis. Rooms were exceptionally clean. It would have been helpful to have things like salt and pepper, foil etc. In the kitchen but the cupboards really are bare. Nearest supermarket is in Sami, 25 mins walk, but there is a great bakery 5 mins away sells big bottles of water in a six pack. There is also a great restaurant called Tou Kokopa a few mins walk away which is excellent."

Sami Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, very clean, amazing view"

Spacious secluded rural villa with private pool, panoramic views, AC sleeps 6-14

10/10 Excellent

"The Walnut Tree truly is a little slice of heaven. Our multi-generational family loved every minute of our stay, and wish it could have been longer. Spotlessly clean, so many thoughtful little touches, incredibly helpful and friendly hosts, stunning scenery, beautiful gardens and wonderful pool - what more could we ask for?"

Anassa Boutique Beach House | Registration number 00000855271

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fabulous holiday in Anassa boutique. Gavriella was very helpful and replied within minutes to any questions we had. It is across a small road to the beach where we loved our morning swims and a morning cup of tea on the benches looking out to the sea & also perfectly located for a 50m walk to the restaurants, bars and the beautiful harbour of Sami. It's a lovely detached property with shade on the terrace downstairs and all-day sun on the balcony upstairs. The air con in both bedrooms was much needed and the ceiling fans were a great help also.Thanks once again Gavriella"

Steps from the Ionian Sea, literally 10m from barefoot bliss!

10/10 Excellent

"Really great apartment in a beautiful location"

Kalypso Studios & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodation is well-situated, within walking distance of both the beach and Melissani Lake. There are some sports courts just behind the property that seem free to use, and the bakery next door is fabulous. The local beach was one of our favorites; while it might not have the dramatic beauty of Myrtos or Fteri, it is definitely the coolest beach in Kefalonia. The cold water from Melissani Lake flows into the sea here, creating a refreshing cold top layer. We really appreciated this in the July heat, and there is often a fresh breeze, too. The flat is a good size, clean, and well-furnished. The air conditioning works well, though you can't set the temperature below 23°C (which, to be fair, is cool enough). The only annoying bit is that after a while, the temperature resets itself up to 25°C or 26°C on its own. The owners are great, very helpful and even let us borrow a beach mat and a parasol, which was an absolute lifesaver!There's a couple of restaurant within walking distance which we haven't tried. Sami is only 5mn drive or 30mn walk by the beach and offer plenty choices. I'd definitely recommend this place."

ALKYONI-Magnificent Seaview -Waterfront-110sq m- Beautiful decoration-1st floor

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was spotlessly clean. Nice gesture of a welcome basket with essentials. Host was great. Both balcony's had views of either the pool/sea or both. 2nd time staying at the apartment and would definitely return."
