About this villa rental
Between the misty mountains and breathtaking coastline of the island of Kefalonia stands two incredible sea-view villas: Villa Odysseus and Villa Penelope.
These two nearly identical villas sit side-by-side on the same secluded 4 acres, facing an unmatched view of the Ionian Sea. Rent one to sleep 4, or rent both to sleep 8 and share a holiday to remember.
Both villas have their own private swimming pool suspended above the sea. Each also has its own BBQ grill for a truly memorable alfresco meal.
Views To The Horizon
Take your place on the sea-view hillside, a peaceful and private location with uninterrupted views of the blue horizon. Close your eyes, feel the warm sun on your skin, and breathe in the sea air. Located at the end of a secluded road, you won’t hear any traffic here...just ocean breezes.
Then explore the terrain of this majestic Grecian island. Rent a jeep to see the rugged black fir forests and the wild horses that call these mountains home.
Or spend a scenic afternoon renting a small boat and travel to the serene Lefka Beach, located just under your cliff-side villa. Explore the dazzling sea caves via kayak, or take a short six miles drive to sunbathe on one of the most famous sandy beaches on the island, Lourdas Beach. A great beach for families, Lourdas features boat and canoe rentals, jet ski excursions, and more. Drive just two miles and swim in the sparkling waters of Koroni beach.
From the villa, drive 10 minutes to the Village of Lourdas, where you can savor delicious local fare and explore the colorful culture. Travel a little further to Argostoli, the energetic capitol 15-miles away where delicious food is around every corner as well, or take a leisurely winery tour. Come find your slice of heaven by the sea!
A Holiday to Remember
Kefalonia is gorgeous year-round. One of our favorite times of the year on the island is May or September, when the ocean breezes are calm and the temperature is just right. August is another lovely time to visit: take-in the gorgeous full, blue moon through your bedroom windows.

From meeting us at the airport,giving us a detailed review of the island and ideas/ visits to complement our stay. A wonderful welcome pack, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect start to our holiday.The villa with its stunning pool was magnificent, the Panoramic views across the sea to Zante and behind to the mountains were breathtaking.Local shops and a choice of beautiful beaches and bars close to hand added to one of the most enjoyable holidays we have ever had.We couldn’t have asked for more and look forward to returning very soon.Thank you again Paraskevas Paul & Jeannette x

Paraskevas was an amazing host, friendly, super helpful, full of recommendations of what to do on the island, where to go, and when which really made our trip! The whole experience was professional and luxury, you really felt like you were in a 5 star resort. From the moment we walked in the door, Paraskevas was friendly and made us feel so welcome, pouring me a well-deserved ice cold beer as we arrived! The villa was spotless, spacious and had everything you need for a luxury holiday. The views, the sunsets, the pool, just out of this world! I can't wait to return, and have recommended this to many of my friends. Thank you Paraskevas for making this an amazing holiday to remember.

We just spent two amazing weeks in Paraskeva's villa. The villa is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Everything was spotless and fresh. The views are breathtaking and the location is an ideal base to explore the rest of the island. The pool is very well maintained. The sun loungers and umbrellas made it possible for us to enjoy this area at different times of day and we had hours of fun as a family.Paraskevas is the most welcoming host we have ever met. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we booked. He went above and beyond to make sure that we are happy, to the point of stocking up the fridge so that we didn't need to go shopping right away. Even the beer glasses were ready in the freezer!He always made himself available when we had questions or needed tips regarding certain trips and activities but he was also very respectful of our space and privacy. It was a great pleasure and honour to meet him and get to spend two wonderful weeks at his property. We already miss having him as a neighbour.

We had a wonderfully relaxing stay at villa penelope. Unfortunately the weather did not allow us to relax by the beautiful pool for our entire stay but the villa was very comfortable and a great location to be able to explore the island. Paraskevas our host was very attentive and helpful. Couldn't recommend enough.
