REVIEW SCORE

Villa Casa Maravillosa Kefalonia is a traditional mansion, built in the early 19th century with great care, by real craftsmen who with their work praised the carving of the stone. The building was declared in 1979 by the Minister of Culture as 'a historical monument', as it is a' typical example of traditional Ionian architecture with neoclassical art elements and is one of the few traditional buildings that survived in Kefalonia by earthquakes and now currently represent the architecture morphology of the Kefalonian houses that existed before the catastrophe of 1953.

With absolute respect to the character of the building, and in compliance with all modern requirements, the estate was rebuilt both internally and externally and is ready to welcome you to enjoy a unique experience. Villa Casa Maravillosa Kefalonia has two floors with a loft and garden surrounded by a two-acre lush and colorful garden.

On the ground floor, there are two suites, each with a large en suite bathroom, a queen-size bed, seating area, and a safe deposit box. There is also an independent space with a desk and a library with a PC, Fax, and free Wi-fi. On the ground floor, there is also a small private church dedicated to Saint Nicholas and Saint George, with a separate entrance and access point from the surroundings. Upstairs there are two large living rooms, a dining room for a total of 12 people, a fully equipped kitchen with a second large dining area with satellite TV, and an extra bathroom for guests. In the attic, there are three bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom, with twin beds that can be joined together to make a queen-size bed and panoramic views. All bedrooms have luxury linen and free Anne Semonin toiletries.

In the surrounding area, there is a private swimming pool of 45 sqm with umbrellas, sun loungers, and an outdoor dining area, while the remaining space is landscaped with lawn, fruit trees, and an organic vegetable garden for the personal use of the residents. Private parking places are reserved for tenants. Surrounded by high walls from three different sides to ensure privacy, the property offers panoramic views of the island of Zakynthos from its fourth side. The entire estate is decorated with selected collectible furnishings and pieces, both utilitarian and decorative, which derived both from Kefalonia and the Ionian Islands, but also from many countries of the world, as well as Persian carpets algae original paintings. The pieces were brought to the estate by the owners and were collected and found through their travels abroad.

Villa Casa Maravillosa Kefalonia offers the luxury of a high-class hotel, with the privacy of a home. A home away from home amidst the vastness of the island. Close to the estate (800-1200 m), one may come across pristine beaches with endless azure waters, and an abundance of restaurants, mini markets, while the capital of the island (Argostoli) is just 8 km away. The accommodation is ideal for various events such as weddings, christenings, anniversaries, parties, family reunion gatherings.

About the Location

Greece, Kefalonia

Svoronata is a small village on the southern side of Kefalonia located 9km from Argostoli, the capital of the island. Svoronata is also the closest village to the airport of the island but also close to lovely beaches, including Ai-Helis, Avithos, Ammes, Platis Gialos and Makris Gialos, which display soft sand and crystalline waters. The village is very picturesque with traditional architecture found within a verdant embrace. It offers developed touristic infrastructure, being one of the largest villages in southern Kefalonia within the region of Livatho. Svoronata stood relatively lucky in the earthquake of 1953 and was not completely destroyed as most of the island. Famous were the blacksmiths of the village, making wrought iron gates, namely portonia, which are true masterpieces. An excellent piece of architecture is the church of St. Nicholas, the patron saint of the village and the seamen.

Kefalonia is the largest island of the Ionian group, located between Lefkada and Zante. Due to the size of the island Kefalonia never gets too crowded or too noisy, not even in high season and this makes it ideal for family holidays. Famous for the exotic aquamarine color beaches, including Myrtos, Antisamos, Lourdas and Skala, the island has gained popularity as the filming scenery of the Hollywood movie Captain Corelli's Mandolin.

The Ionian Islands are located on the western side of Greece and are historically and culturally strongly connected to Italy with many evident elements of this. The architecture of the capital towns, including Corfu Town, Zakynthos Town and Argostoli, resembles a lot to the Venetian style as these islands were occupied by the Venetians in the medieval times. Another striking characteristic of Ionian Greece is the lush green nature and the aquamarine beaches with white soft sand. Corfu, Zakynthos, Kefalonia and Lefkada are the most popular holiday islands. The Ionian islands also embrace an amazing music and dance tradition.

Being among the top 20 tourist destinations worldwide, Greece is synonymous with 3 things: history and ancient civilization, amazing landscapes and top touristic destinations. Greece is so wealthy in culture and beauty that it never seems to be completely explored. Holidays in Greece is the ultimate experience all year round. It offers a great pallet of experiences; the warm sun, the crystal clear beaches, the dramatic nature, the rich culture and the renowned hospitality along with the unique culinary experience of the Mediterranean diet.

Stunning!

This was the mots beautiful villa we have ever stayed in, we couldn't quite believe we had hired it exclusively! The owner allowed us an early check in, brought us homemade cheese pie one morning and fresh bread another. I couldn't have wanted for anything else, the villa was cleaned 6 days a week, the pool and surrounding grounds gorgeous. Walking distance to restaurant and mini-mart, you could walk to the beaches or very easy to drive. Simply the best villa ever!

11 on scale of 10!

Being frequent and sophisticated travelers, our expectations were exceeded in all respects. The best thing to say is that I don’t think I have ever been so sure in recommending something.

The location is very nice, close to Kefalonia airport and in the centre of a small historic town, just next to the church. Modern comfort, quiet ambience, perfect views from several angles, ample internal space, huge and well-kept garden, large pool area with enough space for rest or exercise

Although the place is a historic villa, everything is in perfect condition, and well maintained (no visible fixes or renovation due). All appliances in good order, all electrics working, all light bulbs in place etc…

The owners were extremely open and prompt to assist whenever anything was needed. We were surprised to find a lot of old-style furniture and pieces of antique, which is unusual for a place to let. Together with modern appliances and renovation they made the spirit of the villa and our days there unforgettable. And yes, the kids (8,5, and 5 y.o.) just loved it!

Le plus simplement du monde, elle est exceptionnelle!!

Il est très difficile de trouver le bon commentaire pour cette villa. Le plus simplement du monde, elle est exceptionnelle!! Tout y est réuni pour passer un séjour de rêve sur une île fantastique aux cinquante nuances de bleu. L’ accueil de notre hôte a été formidable et les services proposés dignes d un grand hôtel alors que vous vous sentez tout simplement chez vous. Nous étions 3 familles et chacun a trouvé son propre espace au regard de la taille de cette villa de rêve. La piscine est de bonne taille pour que les enfants et les adultes puissent en profiter pleinement. Tous les équipements attendus sont réunis.

Amazing and Beautiful Villa. Loved everything about it.

The villa is beautiful even better than I imagined , the grounds are spectacular. The rooms are huge and the bathrooms are stunning. The villa is so spacious, even with 10 people you would be really spread out and not on top of each other as all of the rooms are spread across the villa and are not all in the same section.

It's close to local restaurants and a short drive to the beach. We picked fresh fruit from the grounds each morning for breakfast, enjoyed the large BBQ and of course the amazing swimming pool! It was so nice that we didn't explore as much of the island as we had hoped as we wanted to make the most of the villa.

The villa is very well equipped and set up well for large groups to dine together.

Labros and his wife were a pleasure and ensured we had the best possible stay. Cannot wait to re visit next year.

It would also make a perfect setting for a wedding.
