Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ithaca

We had an amazing week at the end of May, the pool and view are just incredible and even better than they look in the pictures. Having a local shop and restaurants within walking distance was a complete bonus too. Would recommend boho for breakfast, Trapazaki bar and restaurant for food or a few drinks and Gefri (we didn’t try any others close by). Lovely beaches are also within a 10 minute drive. The air con is also super effective if you’re worried about the heat.

The villa is absolutely beautiful. It looks just as it does in the picture with the incredible view and clean, considered interior. But what you can’t see is the beautiful construction. Every detail is perfect. Kothreas is at the top of a mountain but it’s easy enough to drive to the delightful seaside villages of Fiskardo and Assos and the extraordinary beaches in northern Kefalonia. The mountain village is charming and rustic with walnut, fig and pomegranate trees, stone buildingd and surrounding hillside that smells of wild thyme & oregano and where you hear goat bells. Nearby there are authentic and excellent mountain tavernas and larger villages like Maganos. The pool is absolutely lovely. We paid to get it heated which was money well spent as our kids stayed in it for hours. Foula and her team were incredible hosts. So kind, informative and welcoming, and it was amazing having a housekeeper every second day. Thank you so much - we hope to be back! Efcharisto!!

We spent a wonderful week at Urania’s Luxury Villas on Lefkada – two adults and three children – and were truly amazed from the very first moment. The location is incredibly peaceful, surrounded by nature, with a stunning view of the sea. A beautiful walk leads to a small private beach – a real highlight. The villa itself is a dream: tastefully furnished, perfectly equipped, and filled with loving attention to detail. You can truly feel the special energy of this place – calming, inspiring, and simply unique. Urania is an exceptional host. Always available, warm, and thoughtful – yet never intrusive. Our children had the joy of painting Easter eggs and baking crêpes with her – an unforgettable experience for all of us. We will definitely be back. Thank you for letting us experience this magical place!

We had the most fantastic week in Kefalonia at this stunning villa. Spyrion was the best host we have had on AirBNB and went above and beyond to make our stay super easy and comfortable. The villa is very private, overlooking a beach and has beautiful sunsets. The villa had comfortable beds, plenty of towels, coffee and some unexpected nibbles on arrival. We would highly recommend and would love to return.

We had a lovely stay at this home! It’s wonderfully located at the end of a long bump track, close enough to Sivota for dinner, drinks and ice cream. Definitely need a car to get around but once you’re at the house you have a stunning infinity pool, a private path down to the sea and a hot tub. It’s quiet, calm and has a lot of character. Make sure to get a food, coffee and wine shop before you arrive with all the essentials. We’d love to come back again! Our second time in Sivota and this was a brilliant base. We were 4 adults and 4 children / babies!

This was our second stay here and we knew what to expect. The changes made since our last stay were exceptional. A warm welcome, a responsive host who made every effort possible to ensure our stay was exceptional. Would highly recommend staying here

Die Wohnung war einfach der absolute Hammer und ist noch toller, als auf den Fotos! Der Außenbereich ist fantastisch und der Blick aufs Meer ist so toll! Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und haben uns direkt wie zu Hause gefühlt. Als wir ankammen, waren Milch, Früchte, Käse, Schinken, griechischer Joghurt & Wasser im Kühlschrank! Zudem waren frische Semmeln & Honig da. Darüber haben wir uns sehr gefreut! Die Wohnung ist mega groß und sauber. Zudem ist sie sehr gut ausgestattet und uns hat es an nichts gefehlt!!! Die Lage ist auch super. Zu Fuß ist es nicht weit bis nach Lixouri! Zu Kommunikation mit den Vermietern war auch super! Wir können die Wohnung zu 100% weiter empfehlen! VIELEN DANK FÜR ALLES🫶!

Very responsive host ,location was perfect for Myrtos beach and nearby amenities . Driving in this part of the island is also good, with reasonably good roads.

Eleni was super helpful. Her instructions to find her place were spot on. Her apartment was opposite a supermarket and walkable (2 mins) to the Main Street where all the restaurants \ marina were located. One of the best well stocked apartment we have stayed in. It is also located next to a school, but not an issue for us as the school term finished the first night of our stay.

Wow! This place is truly magical. Breathtaking views, a gorgeous pool terrace, spacious & comfortable interiors- All located in a beautiful village in the hills, conveniently located 10 mins drive from stunning beaches. Athina was so helpful with local knowledge & places to see, we had a superb time as a family of 8. She left a welcome pack of local fruit & veg aswell as honey, jam & wine, cheeses & butter. We felt so welcome and at home. There’s a mini market 5 mins walk away with all the basics & larger shops in small towns in 15 mins drive. Delicious & friendly restaurants & tavernas within 15 mins. The area is easy to drive around. Top 3 hot spots: Vouti beach/ Taverna, Assos & Fteri beach on the water taxi. My 10 year old loved feeding the village cats & seeing the goats walk past with their bells. Great places to swim, snorkel & jump off rocks - The water is the most turquoise I have ever seen! Forever memories made. This house, Kefalonia & Nifi has stolen our hearts.

Lovely villa with super patio space, and nice to be so close to a few restaurants in the village. We had a great time.

Alojamiento en la misma finca que el propietario. Tienes tu propia zona de jardín y parcela de coche. Angeliki fue muy amable y nos hizo varias recomendaciones

Die Insel Kefalonia ist schon eine Reise wert. Unser Aufenthalt bei Lambros machte den Urlaub zu einem perfekten Reiseerlebnis. Die eigentliche und brillante Gastgeberin vor Ort ist Maria, die Mutter von Lambros. Sie wohnt nebenan und empfängt und begleitet die Gäste über den gesamten Zeitraum des Aufenthaltes mit großer Herzlichkeit. Sie verwöhnte uns mit Kuchen und Marmelade und versorgte uns mit frischer Wäsche und hilfreichen Tips. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet und die große Terrasse mit Blick aufs Meer ist das Herzstück der Unterkunft. Im oberen Geschoß sind zwei kleine Schlafzimmer mit nicht ganz so bequemen Federkernmatratzen. Das Haus ist gut mit dem (Miet) Auto erreichbar und der Ort Farsa, verkehrsgünstig unweit von Argostoli gelegen, ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge. Zusammgefaßt, eine sehr empfehlenswerte Unterkunft die es Wert ist, ein weiteres Mal besucht zu werden. Der Abschied ist uns wirklich schwer gefallen. Danke Maria für deine Warmherzigkeit❤️!

This house was amazing, very beautiful spot and Evita was extremely helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone.

This was the best AirBnB we have stayed in. The house is lovely - really comfortable. The swimming pool area is excellent, and the views are incredible. The photos do not do the views justice - they are stunning. We could have stayed for weeks, not just a few days, and would love to return.

We had a fantastic stay. Villa Elia is a beautiful traditional building set in a beautiful and peaceful location. It's only a 10 to 15 minute walk into Antipata where there are two tavernas and a small but well stocked shop. The villa is well equipped and has comfortable beds. The air conditioning is quickly effective. The patio area is large, there are lovely views and there are always areas of shade if you want them. Kostas was very responsive to any communication. Although he wasn't able to be around for our stay he arranged for a neighbour, Maria, to be available. Maria came round after we arrived to answer any questions we might have and provide recommendations of things to do. She was also happy to respond to messages during our stay. We felt very welcomed to the villa. It is a wonderful relaxing holiday.

Dimitris was an amazing host, super welcoming and clearly takes pride in seeing his guests have the best time possible duringtheirstay. The wine and patisserie were really lovely and unexpected touches. The villa was perfect for us and the pool / terrace really makes Villa Zoi special. Kefalonia itself is a beautiful and unspoilt island and Villa Zoi was the ideal base to explore from. Thank you for a great family holiday.

Wow wow wow. We had the BEST stay in the most breathtaking and idyllic location. We were in all of the view from the pool and the Terrace. It was amazing to be able to pick our own fruit from the beautiful gardens….apricots, plums and lemons!! The hosts were super helpful and discreet, respecting our privacy but equally available and in communication when needed. The pool was immaculate, cleaned regularly and just perfect. The villa had everything we needed and more… treats left for us and lots of practical items left also like bin bags and tin foil!! All it all it was a dream. We’re looking at booking next year. If you want isolation, perfection and tranquility you can’t beat Villa Serenity.

We had a wonderul stay at this villa. The location is perfect with easy access to Fiskardo and all the lovely coves nearby and the pool was spotless and so refreshing. We really enjoyed the expansive outside space and the host was very responsive. As others have mentioned, the master bed was fairly hard (and we're not normally fussy), but otherwise the villa was so well equipped and had everything we needed. The beach toys they bought for our children, was a very kind touch.

Nice place with friendly hosts (both Alex)! They agreed to let us stay later in the room on the day of the check-out!

The hosts were so lovely and helpful. They very kindly gave us a welcome hamper of food for our first morning and gave us early check-in and late check-out. They even gave us a hamper with nappies and some supplies for the baby which was so kind and thoughtful. The villa is beautiful, clean and is even nicer than the photos can show. We hired a car as there isn't a huge amount in the immediate area but it's so peaceful and it's really easy to get taxi's if you don't have a car. We will definitely book again on our next visit to Kefalonia. Thank you again x

Beautiful villa in a beautiful location. Well equipped with all you need for your stay. Amazing space indoor and out. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this villa and will definitely try to get back next year. Thank you Nikos & Athinaida 😎

We spent an amazing ten days at this lovely property. It took us by surprise on arrival, photos really don’t do it justice. The rear is nicely enclosed, and the front overlooks an olive grove. The garden around the property itself has an olive tree, several fruit trees, flowers and even a couple of tortoises. 🐢 Some local products were left in the kitchen for us when we arrived, always helpful! The area is not touristy at all, which we liked, but a car is essential if you want to explore the island properly. Good central location. There is on street park close by. Would definitely stay here again! 💙🇬🇷

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la maison très confortable et calme de Panos. La grande piscine est un véritable atout. Les commerces sont dans la rue voisine, plusieurs plages sont à proximité et des randonnées sont accessibles à pied depuis la maison. Panos a été très réactif à nos demandes et ses recommandations fort judicieuses. Un séjour idéal !
