Villehardouin Farm Estate, Studios & Apartments, Minia, Kefalonia

Struttura ben curata nel suo complesso.

Host was lovely. Location excellent. Clean. Quiet. Relaxing.

We only stayed there for a night, before heading to the airport for an early flight. For this purpose, the hotel was fine.

The furniture and accessories are outdated a bit, could use a renovation. Our beds were very short, if you are tall, I wouldn’t recommend.

The owner was immediately available whenever we needed to contact her, which we really appreciated. She was also kind enough to offer us fresh fruit from the garden, which was a lovely and thoughtful gesture. Beautiful garden! The pool was beautiful and pleasantly warm, although there were quite a few dead insects in the water when I used it. To be fair, this was about an hour before closing, so the time of day may have contributed to this. The location is convenient if you have a car: it is close to Makris Gialos Beach and around 15 minutes from Argostoli. However, there is essentially nothing within easy walking distance, so a car is a necessity. The road is also quite narrow despite being two-way, so extra caution is needed when driving.

The biggest disappointment was the bathroom. At least in Room 1, it was much smaller than we expected from the photos. The shower was extremely cramped and positioned very close to both the toilet and the sink, making the space uncomfortable to use. The Wi-Fi did not work at all during our entire four-night stay. The owner explained that this was an issue with the provider, but since Wi-Fi is listed as an amenity, we naturally expected it to be available. For a four-night stay at this price, we also expected at least one change of bed linen and replacement soaps/toiletries. The room was generally clean on arrival, although we found a piece of pasta underneath the kitchen cabinet and noticed several small black marks on the veranda. We were also told that insects are common because of the garden, but unfortunately there was no insect screen on the balcony door, making it difficult to air out the room without letting insects inside.
