About this villa rental
Welcome to Villa Vounaki – your private retreat in the heart of Kefalonia.
Nestled on a secluded 2,000 m² estate at the edge of the traditional village of Makriotika, Villa Vounaki offers peace, privacy, and panoramic views of the lush Pylaros valley, the shimmering Ionian Sea, and the surrounding mountains. This is the perfect place to unwind and experience authentic Greek life—far from mass tourism.
Just a 10-minute drive brings you to the charming harbor of Agia Efimia, with its cafés, restaurants, and shops. The world-famous Myrtos Beach and several idyllic white-pebble coves with crystal-clear waters—ideal for swimming and snorkeling—are also nearby. For a taste of local cuisine, the beloved taverna Maklithari is just a short walk (5 min) from the villa.

We have to say this is one of the best villas we have ever stayed in! Certainly the best equipped and the maid service is excellent with clean bedding and towels provided every 3/4 days and the Villa cleaned from top to bottom at the same time. It’s about a 10 minute drive to Agia Efimia with numerous restaurants and supermarkets. Lida is a fantastic host with excellent and prompt communication and allowed us to have a late check out due to us having a late flight home. Highly recommended!

Lovely villa, in a great location. Spotlessly clean with everything you would need for your stay. The pool and outside space is fantastic! Lida is a great host, providing privacy but always available if required. All tavernas we visited were very good - our top picks were the one in the village, Finikas and The Local in Agia Effimia and Myrtos Tavern near Myrtos beach. We loved our vist to Villa Vounaki!

The best holiday we have had as a family! The villa is perfect, designed with a beautiful view of Agia Efimia cut through hedges of flowering shrubs. Pool and house were immaculately clean. Towels provided. On arrival we were greeted warmly and the owners had provided enough food to last well into the next day. Cooking utensils were of a very high standard and oil and vinegar were provided. The local taverna in 5 mins walk serves some of the best greek food we have tasted and they are so welcoming. Supermarkets and bakeries available in Agia Efimia, local bakery 5mins drive away. The villa is cleaned mid week and all the bedding and towels changed, the pool is cleaned too. Cannot fault our villa and hosts!
