    Quality of the villa, well equipped, peaceful location, 10 minutes drive to 3 fairly large supermarkets, centrally located on the island (around 50 minutes to Skala and 1 hour 10 minutes to Fiskardo).

    Really lovely villa in a great location with lots of beaches and restaurants nearby. Lots of great tips given by William. Would definitely recommendnas it's a real home away from home.

    Excellent séjour dans une maison très bien équipée, au calme. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié de trouver eau, café, beurre, bières...pour débuter notre séjour. Literie très confortable.

Villa Amelia was completed in the summer of 2006. It is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with easy access and parking area for a few cars. The villa is in the village of beautiful Metaxata, a typically Greek friendly village complete with church, tavern, restaurant and local shop. The villa boasts stunning views of the most imposing Mount Aenos (1626m and the highest mountain in Kefalonia) and the Castle of St George, the old capital of Kefalonia. Villa Amelia stands on its own grounds of 700 metres squared with an attractive and well-maintained mature garden. The swimming pool is very private, is screened by a series of tall hedging and is not overlooked by anyone. The BBQ area is enclosed with a wooden & stone pagoda and has its own lighting and running water. The Villa is fully air conditioned, with two bedrooms, both en-suite with bath & shower. There is also a downstairs bathroom with shower. The ground floor comprises an open-plan large sitting room area, with 2 Italian luxurious leather sofas.

Patrick and Eileen hail from Dublin and both have shared a passion for Kefalonia for over 35 years. Way back, when Eileen was just 19, they both back-packed into Athens for a 3-week trek around the Islands of Greece. Being young and frivolous, they made a fun decision to take the next flight out of Athens wherever it would lead them. That was Kefalonia and they had a full half hour to board. They instantly fell in love with the Island and both made a pact that if they did end up getting hitched and had a family, this would be where they would bring them. Over their 3-week stay in Greece, they went on to visit Corfu, Crete, San Torini, Milos, Kos, Mykonos, Zakynthos and even went to Kusadasi in Turkey. But their view never changed. They did get hitched up, had three fantastic kids and have pretty much being coming to Kefalonia year in, year out these past 30 years. Amy (Amelia), Colin and Mike, Pat and Eileen’s children, all love Kefalonia. Having spent their summers here, they now have an adult appreciation of the beauty of the Island, which all agree is difficult to define. It is a combination of the beauty of the landscape: the laid back rural Greek Villages complete with goat
Villa Amelia is located in the village of Metaxata, a small traditional village with many beautiful gardens. It is a 10 minute drive to the capital Argostoli & the popular resort of Lassi. There are many beaches within an 8/15 minute drive: Avithos, a blue flag beach, is just 8 minutes by car. In 1823, Lord Byron stayed in Metaxata for several months. He was inspired by the natural beauty of the village and the pleasant demeanour of the locals. He wrote many poems praising this wonderful place.His statue stands in the central square of Metaxata. The village has one mini-market which is 5 minutes walk from the villa. Lakithra, the next village 1km away, has a few mini-markets, a bakery and a taverna which is very popular with the locals. There is also a cake shop which has a sinful array of pastries, for those of us who are weak! The villa is well positioned to explore the island. Metaxata, and neighbouring Kourkoumelata, are some of the islands most picturesque areas.
