House vacation rentals in Ithaca

What an amazing find, the villa was spotless and Dimitris was so welcoming bringing gifts of cake and wine. The location was beautiful and we could not have wished for more. The pool area was spacious and we were close to wonderful beaches and restaurants. We would describe this villa as a true gem. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience we feel blessed

I’m not sure where to start. The hosts are beyond incredible and hospitable, they took us to the shops, brought us things when we needed them and asked how we were throught. Tammy and Babis were so wonderful. The place itself is a marvel, you’re surrounded by swathes of raw nature and combine that with the outdoor amenities, you’d wish you were there all day. Such a clean, pristine place. Me and my friends were speechless, by the quality, the hospitality and the experience. I absolutely recommend this place and hope to come again in the future!

This villa is a gem! As first time visitors to Kefalonia, this turned out to be the perfect location for our family of 5 (2 adults + 3 teenagers). Peaceful, with gorgeous views from every bedroom and a magnificent pool area, but close enough to Argostoli and other towns to make restaurants, shopping, church, etc doable. Even though it's near the airport, there was no noise and I think we honestly only saw one plane take off. I feel like you do need a car to get around the island. It was a bit difficult to find initially, but we figured it out and our host met us at the villa, which was such a nice touch. The house is amazing, super clean with every amenity you would need (ironing board + iron, hair dryers, washing machine, drying rack, full kitchen, plenty of towels). We even found a bottle of wine, bread and fruit for us on check-in. We would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat if we're ever lucky enough to return to Kefalonia. It was magic!

If you have any doubts about renting this property, forget them!! world travellers & hands down the loveliest air bnb I've been in. Extremely clean, well maintained - just BEAUTIFUL. Exactly like the photos. The family have poured alot of love into the properties. We had the BEST trip & that's just the location and property. Add to that the wonderful family that host, they are kind, generous, communicative and honestly so lovely...like staying with family. I got emotional when we had to leave 😭. They left fresh eggs, bread,wine, olive oil, jams, honey etc. Great equipped kitchen & bbq area. After a day out we found beautiful cakes had been left in the fridge after they came to do pool maintenance. After hearing we had a bad time at a cafe they cheered us up with kebabs, fresh pittas & sausages from their butchers. So delicious!! This is a hilly area, if you have mobility issues check out their other beautiful property which also looks amazing. We will be back!Thank you so much guys!!

A beautiful home in a stunning peaceful village. Panagiotis was a welcoming and attentive host and the cottage had everything we could have needed and more. The garden was particularly beautiful with orange trees and two lovely tortoises that kept us company!!

Thoroughly enjoyed staying here, absolutely stunning apartment! The views are incredible, there’s a nice beach close by, and people are friendly. Gerasimos was a lovely host, always quick to respond. Thank you again!

It is the best place to stay in Lefkada if you want to see the beautiful beaches which are on the west side of the island! The vila is amazing, everything is new, modern, the view is wow, you find absolutely everything you need in the villa.

Very nice place, peaceful and the beaches around are very nice, warm waters. Nice restaurants.

A beautiful penthouse apartment with a spectacular view. The apartment is tastefully decorated with a modern design. Was a perfect base for exploring Kefalonia.

We cant say enough about our stay at Maria and Nausika’s. The house was a little oasis. The house was clean and so welcoming inside, the garden was beautiful, and every detail was so clearly thought out. Even the signage to find the house from the street was clear and helpful. Our hosts were communicative, helpful, and left notes on local recommendations. We would strongly recommend and would love to stay again if we are in Kefalonia!

We had such a lovely stay at Grace’s. We booked both apartments for a family group, which worked well. The villa is charming with the most beautiful seaviews. We spent a lot of time just watching boats coming and going in the changing light. It has a very homely feel, with plenty of places to sit in comfort. Aircon & mosquito nets were very welcome. Pool is small but enough to cool off in. Grace was very proactive with information prior to arrival, which was helpful and very responsive with any queries. We absolutely loved Kioni, couldn’t get enough of the warm, clear sea. We hired a boat from George a couple of days, and swam in little bays, would thoroughly recommend. Good choice of authentic and fine dining. Would suggest discussing access if important for your group, as it’s not easy for anyone with mobility issues. Steps from parking, and down to the pool and although we were able to walk comfortably to the village, it proved too much for my parents. We would definitely go back.

This was our first stay in Ithaka, having previously visited on day trips from Kefalonia. We chose Vathy because of its convenience; many tavernas bars and shopping facilities, and a great base exploring the whole island. Henry's house is one of only a few in Vathy with a pool, but it is also only 5 or 10 minutes drive from several delightful coves and beaches. Being right in the centre of Vathy you feel like part of the community, but the house and gardens are also quite private. In October there is an endless supply of lemons from the garden 🍹. The villa is charming and welcoming. Henry is a very welcoming, responsive, and attentive host.

Beautiful house, stunning view, spotlessly clean and charming host. We arrived out of season and she worried we wouldn’t find a restaurant open easily. When we got there we were greeted with an enormous tray of homemade pastitsio which was incredible. A fabulous stay. Thank you so much

Amazing accomodation overall. The most wonderfull seaview from almost every window. Everything is better than the photos, super clean and spacious, with attention to every bit of detail to make you feel welcomed . The hosts super kind, fast responsive and very helpful. The location is easy to find with some very good instructions. Close to many beautifull beaches and main roads. I highly reccomend this accomodation, its truly a gem on the Island!

Stayed here for 4 nights in April 25. Great communications with our host who met us on arrival and was quick to respond to messages. The apartment was spotlessly clean and attractively decorated. Well equipped kitchen. Effective heating/air con. The huge bed was comfortable and we slept well, although optional extra bedding would have been appreciated as the nights were quite cool. The pullout sofa bed was also comfortable for our 16yo. The shower is absolutely fabulous. The location is great, just a scenic 10 minute walk into Agia Effimia, or a 15 minute drive down to Sami, with some lovely beaches dotted around. The views from the apartment are stunning and the patio catches the sun through till mid afternoon, so perfect for peaceful relaxation. Recommend and would return.

What can we say other than fantastic. The villa was perfect and had everything we really needed for a family of 5. The outside space was lovely with views out to the sea and mountains which were stunning. There are gorgeous beaches and places to eat well within walking distance. The Villa, located in Spartia is in a great location to tour the island, although we did not have to travel to far to enjoy Kefalonia as there was plenty on our doorstep, which meant we could relax and the kids just loved snorkling and swimming in the calm local waters. Lena was very accomodating and helpful, dealing with any mesaages / queries very quickly and was also able to accomodate us arriving earlier than the usual check in time, which was really helpful after a very early start that day. The housekeeper Sandra was excellent, and also very helpful sharing lots of local knowledge. We would highly recommend and hope to see Lena and Sandra again in the near future.

This is a fantastic villa! Brand new, spotlessly clean and really well equipped. Everything had been thought of, including washing powder, first aid to name a couple. Really beautiful, warm pool and outdoor area. It’s as good as it looks! Lovely peaceful surroundings but within walking distance of the beach and great restaurants. Really great hosts, who were super responsive and helpful, meeting us on arrival, showing us round the villa and then sending on loads of info about local places to see and eat. Cannot rate this highly enough!

Our stay at Anthi's place in Kefalonia was nothing short of perfection. Anthi, the host, is an incredible and warm-hearted woman who truly made us feel at home. The property is surrounded by beautiful flowers, and the atmosphere is serene and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of her family, as she went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this was the best Airbnb experience we’ve ever had. Everything was flawless, and Anthi's kindness added a personal touch that made our stay unforgettable. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a truly special and authentic experience in Greece.

We had an amazing stay at Akis & Eleni's property. It was presented exactly as it was in the pictures and perfect for our family vacation. It's a private property, so very peaceful, with an amazing pool, outside area and sun loungers. Just a very short walk out the back of the garden and you are on a lovely (very unique) beach. There is a great beach bar if you turn left, and a short walk around (through the water) some rocky outcrops (or via some steps to avoid the water), a larger selection of beachside bars and restaurants, and water activities. You'll need a car for the supermarket and exploring the rest of the island, but it was the perfect bolthole for us for a week. Akis & Eleni were excellent hosts, and very easy to contact to provide you with the peace of mind you need on a family trip. Would highly recommend this to one family or two!

Very beautiful and welcoming house in a very good location, with extra amenities (dishwasher, washing machine) and great sea views from the house and from the terrace. Ideal for relaxation, in a quiet area, very close to great beaches. I highly recommend it!

We spent a great week in Ithaca. Olive Grove was a very beautiful house, with a great view, very close to Vathi and in a very quiet spot. The house had everything needed for a comfortable stay and the host was very kind and very helpful. We were greeted by Mr. Kostas, Jerry's father, and made us feel at home from the beginning. In fact, we had cold water, wine, and the basics in the fridge for a breakfast. The only issue is the many stairs from parking to house, but everything else fully compensates you! The island is great! Highly recommended!

Communication with the host and check in went very fine. The house is big on a beautiful location. It has two terraces, both really nice and inside you got everything you need. There is a bit noise coming from the road, apart from that all was fine.

Such a lovely place in the nice village of Spartia. The house is perfectly clean and very functional. Shops and beaches are close to the house. Also, the communication with Dimitris and Xanthi was fluid and kind. I highly recommend this place for your next holidays.

Lovely, spacious cottage, located on a hill, which makes it quite breezy. The hosts are very nice and helpful. We very much enjoyed the place and would love to visit again!
