Orfos Villas

Words are too poor to describe the experience at Orfos Villas. Trying to find something negative but it is impossible. We stayed for the weekend and I can only say that it was unforgettable. Totally recomend for a couple wanting to live the life !

If I could give Orfos Villas 10 out of 5, I would! The villa itself (we stayed in Villa Yria) is beautifully designed with an emphasis on local stone and wood, and spans 3 floors with tasteful decor, comfortable beds, modern appliances (fridge freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine) , a wealth of fresh towels and efficient air conditioning. Loads of space to come together to eat, talk, socialise but also lots of private areas to chill out, read, listen to music for a bit too. ‘Plenty of crockery, glasses, cutlery, pots etc in the kitchen, plus a wee coffee machine. The bathrooms are modern with good showers and plenty of hot water at all times. The lovely lady who cleans comes in every day and gives the place a very thorough going over, even if it doesn’t need it! Likewise, the chap who cleans the pool comes every evening and he even cleaned out our barbecue before we had a chance to do it ourselves. The pool area is beautiful; clean, equipped with sturdy loungers and swing chair, with carefully placed shading and, of course, uninterrupted, breath-taking views across to Kefalonia. The pool is a good size (2 or 3 folk on lilos could happily bob around in it with plenty of leeway) and of uniform depth (I’m 5’5” and could stand). Even although the villas are semi-detached, they are carefully designed to be very private and the pool and terraces are in no way overlooked by other guests. Within a short walk down the hill are a number of very pleasant restaurants and tavernas, leading down into the village/port itself. There were many dining-out options but provision shopping opportunities are quite limited and expensive in the village, although you can, obviously, get basics. There are idyllic little shingle beaches dotted along the coast and lots of swimming and boating opportunities. Lastly, but definitely not least - the hosting by Sofia and Spyros is absolutely exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble and they are genuinely warm and generous people. Sofia helped us to arrange taxis, shopping, offered friendly advice, gave us lovely gifts including local olive oil, honey (delicious!), wine and apricots from her garden. Despite our lack of Greek language skills, they were incredibly attentive and helpful but not at all obtrusive; a hosting masterclass!

Orfos villa made our vacation unforgettable. Stunning view, great amenities and a welcoming host always eager to help. Definitely the best place to stay all around. We heartily recommend this hotel and we looking forward to visiting it again.

Πολύ όμορφη τοποθεσία σε συνδιασμό με εξαιρετικό χώρο διαμονής. Πανέμορφη θέα και ιδιωτική πισίνα σε ένα παραδοσιακό κατάλυμα. Πολύ καλή εξυπηρέτηση από τους ιδιοκτήτες, το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα και ελπίζω να ξαναπάω!
