Beachfront vacation rentals in Makris Gialos Beach

As a family of four, we loved our stay in this beautiful house. As soon as walked in we felt right at home. The verandah area is lovely, the beds are comfortable, the decor is tasteful and beautiful and the house is so welcoming we didn’t want to leave. Everything worked perfectly and was in excellent condition. It has everything anyone could possibly need in a very convenient location. One of our favourites!

North Paradise is incredible. First the apartment - spotlessly clean, comfortable, quiet, hot water, strong WiFi and the most stunning view from the balcony. Walking distance - 10 mins to lovely beach and tavernas. But what really makes this place outstanding is your host Dina. She fills the fridge before you arrive. The kitchen cupboards are filled with every appliance you may wish for. Dina will help you hire cars, book boat trips and generally do anything for you. I cannot rate North Paradise highly enough. If you want peace and quiet, a gorgeous beach and taverna within a 5 minute walk then this is for you. You will get the warmest Kefalonian welcome.

The house is right next to a tiny beach with deck chairs. There's a kayak for guests to use for free, too. Georgios is very nice and helpful.

The apartment corresponds to the information and the photos. Mirka is very friendly and gave us good tips. The apartment is kept simple, but was sufficient and very clean for our purposes. Only the kitchen equipment could have been a little better. Basically, we had a very nice stay. Agia Effimia was a perfect starting point to explore the island.

We saw Sarakiniko cottage last time we visited Poros Kefalonia and always wanted to stay there and we were so happy we came back. We had a lovely relaxing week and so thankful to Babis and his wife who were wonderful hosts, thanks so much!

The apparent is beautiful, so clean and nicely decorated, the bed is comfy anf the facilities are brand new. The kitchen is well equipped and the view is beautiful. Great location, just perfect for reaching all the island attractios. Memi and her mother are wonderful hosts and helped us with anything we needed. We had a wonderful stay, I recommend this appartment very much!

We had a lovely stay at Manolis's house. It is within walking distance of everything that Sami has to offer and close to many of the local beaches. Highly recommend for both short and long stays in Keflonia.

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

This was the perfect location to explore the island of Kefalonia from. The accommodations were spacious, clean and both decks had fabulous views of the sea. It is located in a quite location with comfortable beds and it was stocked with all the necessities we required. The host was easy to communicate with and very punctual in filling any requests. Mrs. Sophia was lovely and kept the unit very clean for us.

Loved it

This is the second time we’ve stayed in the Chloe villa and it didn’t disappoint! It’s such a beautiful location with an amazing sea view to watch the sunrise. The pool is directly below and the sea over the road which is perfect for early morning swims. Especially due to the changing temperatures in the water where salt meets fresh and there are warm spots and cold spots. It’s a short pebble beach so water shoes (or flippers in my daughter’s case) make getting in and out of the water much easier. Steve was a brilliant host! Nothing was too much trouble. Really responsive and because we had a late flight extended our checkout time until 6pm which meant we could enjoy a full last day. The apartment is equipped with everything you need, including some starter items for your arrival, such as biscuits, jam, milk, butter… and wine! There is a coffee machine, toasty maker & everything else you may need (incl. washing machine and dishwasher) A 20 min coast walk straight to Sami!

We had a fantastic stay at Stella di Mare, the hosts are very welcoming and warm. It has a unique location with everything you could expect from a vacation housing. The only downside is that the road to get to the building is narrow and steep. Otherwise everything is perfect.

Great communications with clear arrangements for meeting us on arrival, after the journey from the airport. Good local restaurants and a supermarket/ bakery 5 minutes walk. Also 5 minutes walk from the underground lakes. 1.5km from Sami on foot - you can stroll there and back for a huge choice of bars, shops and restaurants. The apartment itself was great. Welcome wine, juice and water in the fridge and 4 coffee pods with UHT creams. Butter and jam portions also in the fridge. Decent parking around the apartment as well. I would highly recommend. Great for two - we had our son on the sofa bed, so can accommodate 4. If you see Piggy the Dog, say hello. He had the uncanny ability to walk us to the nearest restaurant where he then enjoyed the leftovers.

Evgenia was very friendly and helpful throughout the whole trip. Check-in/out was very easy and she helped us book a transfer back to the airport which was very appreciated. The room was clean and tidy. Beautiful location with stunning views, only a short walk down to the beach, however a hire car is necessary to fully explore the island - not much is accessible on foot! We had a lovely holiday, thank you Evgenia :)

Villa Bambola is everything you would hope for in a holiday destination, beautiful accommodation, well appointed, fantastic outdoor facilities, including large terrace, infinity pool, loungers, barbeque and outdoor dining, all with wonderful views and sunsets. Neil provided ice cold bottled water, wine, fruit and charcoal for the BBQ on arrival. There are numerous restaurants and mini markets near by. We loved Ionian View and Chefolonia. Our favourite beach was Agios Thomas which is a 7 minute drive with parking at the beach, along with a lovely beach side taverna. The turtles of Agostoli harbour were an added delight. Fiskardo, while a 90 minute drive is worth the visit. We will definitely be back, Thanks Neil and Alexandra for a lovely stay !

My family and I had the most amazing time at Eleni’s home. Stunning views, so peaceful and a short walk into the main square and the famous 3 Wise Monkeys restaurant (5 star food). Assos is the quintessential Greek village.

Such a lovely place to stay everything was perfect from the location to the amazing host! They were so lovey and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed at all time

We had a wonderful stay. The panoramic views from the house are beautiful and the setting is very peaceful. Everything is as described and the house is well equipped and comfortable. As others have said you definitely need a car but you are rewarded with stunning views in a very special location. You can drive to Lixouri in about 15 minutes where there is a great choice of restaurants and there is a good supermarket about 10 minutes away. This was our first visit to Kefalonia and we very much hope to return to the island and to this house!

The house is located 3min walk from one of the best sandy beaches in Kefalonia. It was very quiet at night, super cosy in the evening when having dinner on the balcony with view of lemon tree garden, and well equipt for hot weather (having air-con and window shutters). Everything felt super new and well-maintained, the host is very nice, responsive and gave us great local recommendations for food. We had everything we needed and felt like we're at home.

We had a wonderful 3 weeks at Maistros apartments, hosted by Marinos Simatos, a charming, responsive & thoughtful host. The 2 bedroom apartment was well maintained, nicely furnished and well equipped. Located in an excellent location, it is a short walk from the bars & restaurants of Lassi with beautiful views of the coast & sunset, perfect for a peaceful family break. The apartment lacks air con (and this would be welcome in future) but all of the rooms have ceiling fans and are well ventilated. We were also provided additional fans as it was very hot during our stay. Marinos was an exemplary host. When we arrived we found the fridge stocked with complementary cold drinks. Marinos was quick to accommodate our requests - a spare table for the balcony, fresh laundry, extra coat hangers, fans etc. Generously, he gave us a superb bottle of family-produced red wine, as well as oregano & lentils to take home - greatly appreciated! A perfect holiday base and a perfect host, 10/10, superb!

Beautiful apartment right on the water, close to lots of restaurants and the shopping in Argostoli. All walking distance. Apartment was super clean, modern and delightful to be in, with a great balcony for coffee / evening drinks. Short drive / taxi to great beaches. Anna was lovely, very helpful and kind. We hope to stay again!

Dionysia and Panos are very friendly and extremely helpful landlords. The apartment on the 2nd floor overlooking the sea and large roof terrace is modernly furnished, very clean and in perfect condition. Everything you need is available. We were provided with tips for excursions and for taverns and bars. Every question was always answered spontaneously. Poros is a nice little place with a harbor and private beach. Many first-class taverns and restaurants, cafes and bars invite you to relax. We felt very comfortable and will definitely come back 🫶

What a pleasure to meet Mitsi and her parents they were lovely and made us very welcome. We loved sitting outside and listening to the waves, it was so peaceful and just what we needed. Sunrise over the sea was particularly beautiful so to sit and watch it with a coffee from the comfort of the porch was perfect. Accommodation was well equipped and it was great to get new towels halfway through our stay. Location was fab only a short walk to amenities, restaurants and main square where you could book excursions or take the local bus. Definitely a place to unwind.

We can definately recommend the studio, it was clean and well equipped. Situated in easy reach of resturants, beaches and handy pool bar just few strides away. As temperatures hit 36C most days we were there, so we were particularly glad of the aircon. Panagis was really helpful and friendly meeting us when we arrived.
