The largest of the Ionian Islands, it never feels crowded even in the high season. A great destination for both couples and families alike, your holiday to Kefalonia can be as active or as relaxed as you choose. Beach lovers will be delighted with the choice of exotic beaches including the gorgeous and photogenic Myrtos, Skala and Lourdas. Take a swim in shimmering turquoise waters, visit ancient and picturesque villages, feast on traditional Greek cuisine and explore Medieval castles on this magical island.

Choose Skala or Lassi for a fun holiday experience

Skala is Kefalonia's most popular resort and offers everything you would expect for a fun and enjoyable Kefalonia holiday. This former fishing village boasts miles of blue flagged beaches, sweet smelling pine trees and a great selection of restaurants, bars and nightlife to suit all interests. There's all kinds of activities available here too such as jet skiing, snorkelling and paragliding, whilst for those who prefer to relax on holiday will find plenty of quiet stretches of beach equipped with parasols and sun loungers to while away the lazy days. Venture beyond the resort and you'll find ancient Roman villas, the Temple of Apollo, old churches and a wealth of rural countryside.

Another beautiful Kefalonia resort is Lourdas, ideal for those seeking a more relaxed and tranquil holiday. The village dates back hundreds of years and offers a little slice of Mediterranean paradise, just perfect for doing very little for a couple of weeks. Walk among cypress and olives trees, stroll through lush countryside, explore the awe-inspiring Mount Einos or simple relax with a cold drink by the beach.

If a lively resort is more your idea of the perfect holiday then Lassi is a great choice for families and couples alike. The oldest and most established resort town, Lassi offers great beaches, crystal blue sea, water parks, watersports and an endless choice of bars, restaurants and tavernas.

If your ideal holiday is one full of romance, charm and elegance, then you can't help but fall in love with Fiscardo.

Accommodation was really well kept. Location was fantastic, quiet, overlooking it's own small bay, but just 5 minutes stroll to harbour side restaurants.

Fantastic location with amazing panoramic views of Fiskardo and the coast. Easy walking distance to Fiskardo. Good size, fish decoration, clean accommodation and well equipped by Greek standards. Bathroom was a welcome surprise- ability to flush paper down the loo, proper shower cubicle etc. Relaxing pool and bar area. Friendly and helpful staff.

Location of apartments was glorious and imagine the views from the first and second floors would be brilliant. Apartment very spacious although would recommend moving the sofa to look out over the view so when it stormed (as it certainly did) would have afforded better views. The staff, and in particular Elenie was just so helpful and a real credit to the apartments. The terrace was lovely.
