Holiday rentals in Thinaia

We felt very comfortable in the accommodation. Everything was very clean. Upon arrival, a generous welcome package was waiting for us. The pool was also totally sufficient and clean. The pool company came several times a week to clean. Irene was always quick to respond. The house is absolutely as described. For us as a couple, it was optimal in size and we also liked the location. It is an island and if you want to see or do something you have to drive somewhere, which did not bother us at all. In the house, you have Greeks as neighbors and are away from the many tourists, which also corresponded to our idea. We also liked this side of the island best. All in all, top and an absolute recommendation. Who knows, maybe we'll even come back. We had a great week in La Baracca and on the island of Kefalonia in general.

This apartment is next-level: - beautifully furnished and appointed - with a very handy, highly-rated pizza place directly below it on the ground floor! It's fantastically located - right on the harbourside with loads of shops/amenities minutes' walk away (and turtles visiting in the bay directly opposite the apartment!). Despite its central location, the entrance is down a peaceful side street and when you're in the hot-tub you can't see the street at all but look directly out to the bay and the lights across the water - it feels incredibly private and peaceful. Clio, the representative, couldn't have been more helpful and responsive and our stay here was just about perfect in every way: this place is something really special!

We were a group of 8 friends and had the privilege to stay in Georgios's villa for 3 nights. The house is like a real art gallery with beautiful pieces of art but at the same time it gave us the feeling of home. There are several places where one could sit and enjoy the views. The village is very peaceful and has mountain feeling but at the same time is close to several beautiful beaches. George welcomed us with freshly picked figs and apricots. We enjoyed the breakfast he prepared for us every morning. George, thank you for all we've learnt from you! Maria and company.

Despite being 25 minutes away by car from the center, the place is still located in a great spot to explore the island in all directions. The house has an awesome view, a spacious yard and a cozy interior. It was also very clean and had every utensil we needed during our stay. We had a great time here and would definitely recommend it.

Great house and large gated backyard with parking. The house has everything for a long stay, including washer. No dishwasher (as expected, the listing does not mention it) but this seems common for the area and is not a dealbreaker. Kardakata is a small and quiet village - exactly what we needed for a family stay. The house was easy to find after we got a picture with the pin on the map. 15 minutes drive to very good beaches (e.g. Vouti), 25-40 minutes to multiple great beaches. ~1 hour to Myrtos because the direct road to it was destroyed and not restored yet as of July 2024, otherwise it would be 20 minutes or so. Couple places to eat within 5-10 minutes, 5 minutes to a mini-market. For major grocery shopping and butcher / bakery we drove to Argostoli: ~25 minutes from the house. Nikoleta is a fantastic host who speaks fluent English. Communication, check in and check out were extremely easy. Overall: a great place, location and host. We would stay here again with no doubts.

The place was amazing. Very peaceful with beautiful views. Close proximity to Argostoli & the Airport. Clayde was fantastic & very quick to reply. Would highly recommend. Thanks!

Absolutely perfect stay in the heart of Lixouri! This house exceeded all expectations — immaculately clean, beautifully decorated with a stylish and modern touch, and incredibly convenient for everything you could need. It’s ideally located for exploring all the stunning nearby beaches, yet peaceful and quiet at night. What made it even more special was the thoughtful attention to families: the house was wonderfully equipped for a little toddler, with a comfy crib, toys, and little touches that made us feel completely at home. It’s clear the hosts truly care and go the extra mile. Highly recommended for anyone, including families — you’ll feel relaxed, welcomed, and truly taken care of in this lovely home. We can’t wait to visit again!

It's hard to write a review without just repeating everything everyone else has said. It really deserves a five star rating. The balcony is amazing, we spent a lot of time just chilling in that fantastic space looking over the harbour. We needed a taxi from the airport and our host recommended local driver Kosmas, who was punctual, helpful and very kind. The wonderful little bakery 'Strawberry' is a couple of minutes walk for fresh pastries, home made ice cream and coffee. There are plenty of tavernas in walking distance - the whole village in fact is very compact and walkable. I'd also recommend Kefalonia Wine Tour as a wonderful experience with local winemaker Julia, who only takes very small groups into her personal, small family world of co-operative wine making. She also picks you up from Agia Effimia! Thanks so much to our wonderful hosts for a really happy stay and making us feel so welcome.
