Panorama Fanari Studios and Apartments

Stayed here for a week early October, and loved it from the off! We were greeted by Maki who made us feel welcome upon arrival, and showed us to our apartment. Our room was spacious and clean, with an amazing view from the balcony with lots of greenery, sea and the lighthouse! Handy to have the cooking facilities / fridge for snacks. The bed was large and comfortable, and the shower excellent. The location itself is quiet and the grounds look well maintained. We found it perfect location to explore the rest of the island, but also to explore the gorgeous coves near to the apartments, and the lighthouse. We didn't hire a car and really enjoyed the approx. 30 minute stroll into Argostoli with beautiful scenery (mountain pic). If you want to get a taxi into the centre / back in the evening its 7 to 10 euros. From the centre its easy to get buses out to other parts of the island, right up to Fiskardo. For us, the apartment offered everything and we were sad to leave - but with great memories!

A great property with a wonderful view and conveniently located. We would definitely stay again.The staff was very hospitable and provided everything we needed.

3rd visit in 4 years to Argostoli and yet again Dionissi and the family made this visit even better than previous 2. Every time I visit the facilities have been upgraded and are even better than before. The breakfast they offer is one of the best continental-style I have ever had for a place to stay of this size. The view from the rooms/pool is one you never forget. Cannot wait to return again.

Our 5th time at this beautiful place - it's still as lovely as it was, the welcome and hospitality of everyone makes you feel like you're coming home. Thankyou to Dionissi, Tassoula, Eleftheria, Makis, Ria , Maki and not forgetting Dimitris and Armando from Ionian cars - you are special people and have a special place in our hearts......John and Judith xx

From the moment we arrived we knew we had chosen a wonderful place. Makis, the owner, welcomed us and made sure we had everything we needed, even insisting we took his personal number in case we ever needed any help. Everything inside and outside the studios was exactly as described on the website and by other reviewers here. The room was spotlessly clean, had all the self-catering facilities we needed plus free air-con and safe. Our patio looked out onto immaculately kept gardens and, beyond, the sea. Also in the garden is a beautiful large table under a pergola and an amazing egg seat, which we have both decided we NEED in our own gardens! The pool area was always again, spotless, and we were delighted to find an "Honesty Bar." My friend was especially delighted with the melon cider! Though we were self-catering, we treated ourselves three times to the buffet style breakfasts. Delicious, fresh food including too many gorgeous cakes! We recommend Panorama Fanari very highly and hope to return some day.

A very peaceful place to stay, ideal for visiting Argostoli and Lassi. We walked to both places many times - 30 - 40 mins walk, depending which part you go to. If you don't want to walk this much, you would need a car as there is no food at the property other than breakfast. Comfortable room , which was cleaned daily, and lovely pool. Honesty bar works well and saves you buying drinks anywhere else! Beautiful view across the sea to Lixouri from our patio.

Our first visit to Kefalonia and we really enjoyed our holiday! The apartments were clean and equipped well, the views were incredible and everything was within walking distance for us (others might prefer hiring cars) the sandy beaches are about a 45 minute walk, but there are other hidden pebble beaches right on the doorstep, and the main harbour / ***** is a 20 minute walk. The pool area is kept clean and tidy along with the bar area, however we unfortunately didn’t get to meet the famous Dionissi

What can we say, our second amazing visit as two friends to the panorama fanari apartments in agostoli kefalonia..there will be many more! Amazing location perched on a hillside above agostoli with a fabulous view of the harbour and lixouri and beautiful sunsets! but it's not just the location, it's the welcome you get from the wonderful family and friends that run this idyllic place. So many people come back year after year for this reason. Nothing is too much trouble. It is like being part of a family, and we meet the loveliest people that stay here. We have also met many people travelling on their own that stay here year after year. The honesty bar is such a great idea too! So thankyou so much once again, dionisis, crissa, eletheria, desonica ( hoping this is spelt correctly🙂) and everyone else that works so hard, for looking after us . We had an amazing time once again at your beautiful apartments..missing you all already..Jo and sue 😘 xx

What a fabulous stay we had with Dionissi, his wife and team, who couldn't do enough for us - thank you so much, it was one of the best holidays we have had! Beautifully clean apartments with everything you need (even a toastie maker which delighted my teenagers) and absolutely stunning view across the bay from every room. Lovely patio areas with incredible sunsets over the well manicured gardens perfect for a holiday sundowner. The location is on the top of a hill overlooking the lighthouse, between Argostoli and Lassi , which increases the choice of tavernas etc. It is a 20 minute walk to Argostoli and about 30mins to Kalamia beach (smaller and less busy than the Lassi beach) but can easily get a taxi back which was typically 7 Euros. We hired a 7 seater through Dionissi and also a speedboat trip, which was so much fun. Cars are more expensive to hire as a result of increase of visitors to Kefalonia, so might be worth booking before you arrive if possible (you need one if you want to explore the island or mobility challenges). The pool area is so pretty with stunning views too and very clean and no issues having a sunbed (very minor issue but our silver jewelry tarnished with the chlorine so worth taking off before swimming but did sort them out when home so not permanent) Loved the food (delicious greek salad, gyros and pizzas and BBQ night was lots of fun) and the honesty bar works really well - especially travelling with young people who can keep their own tabs too! We will definitely be back thank you again as you all work so hard.
