Pleasantly surprised by this property as the photos don’t do it full justice. Great views, good amenities on site, whilst there are plenty of tavernas to go at and access to mini supermarkets - all within walking distance. Peter and his mum oversee the place on a day to day basis and are on hand if needed. Special mention goes to their cleaner who appears to be a real grafter! Would definitely recommend this place and would stay there again.

The location was very nice. 20 min to the beach, where you can have lunch and to places that serve dinner in the immediate vicinity. Well equipped and furnished studios. What I couldn’t stand is communications: way to laid back. Taxi hotel organised didn’t pick us up; on return to airport taxi was 25min late, we nearly missed our flight. They simply didn’t care (“not our fault, we don’t own taxi company”). Owner was super nice but not at all helpful with hints and tips of ways to get around - no bus schedule, in fact didn’t recommend bus, which was totally reliable. More interested in pushing us to his brothers jewellery store. I am coming back next year to kefalonia but won’t be returning to this place.

Only suggestion we would make is that the property has a washing machine for their guests. It would make life a lot easier in this regard. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Gardis, the location was great and we would recommend them to any travellers to Kefalonia.

The property is fine but located at 1.5 km from the beach on a steep hill. Owners were no help with bus schedules station location very grumpy and Euro oriented. There is a car rental near by but you need an international drivers licence a US or Canadian simple DL won’t work. So think of my nightmare having to go pushing up a suitcase on a hill the equivalent of a 15 storey building. The owner had a car and did not offer to take me there it’s literally 5 minutes by car. Now taxi: the trip to Argostoli 12 km or so is 25 euro. The bus ticket for the same 2 euro. You see? Food on the beach is terrible in some places. Some are good but to find the good ones I had to spend some 40 Euro in the local mini market and get the information from a sudden friendlier Greek. Last: the bus driver once answered my Q in English and 10 minutes later when I asked if I could take the bus in the same place the day after to go to Skala refused to answer in En and just said smthg in Greek obviously annoyed. lol be prepared! But on a positive note Kefalonia is amazing.

Villa was much bigger than expected, clean, comfortable and well equipped.

Garbis Villas is in a wonderful spot - with a wonderful welcome. It is peaceful, with good amount of shade if needed for those not accustomed to the copious amounts of sunshine! It was such a joy to find a place where we could instantly relax.

Excellent apartments in quiet location with great views of beach. Pool spotless as were the surrounding areas. Would highly recommend.

Tranquil and beautifully set accommodation perfect for some R&R. Clean rooms and adequate pool size. Sufficient cooking facilities but on a small scale. Stunning scenery from all but one rooms (they over look the mountains and sea). Helpful owner and maid. Local area, within walking distance, has lots of tavernas / bars / super markets / cash points. Beaches are a short drive away and of an enough variety to base yourself exclusively in this area for 3-4 days without needing to see anywhere else. Car, as always, recommended for the Greek islands.

Lovely clean apartments with all the modern conveniences provided that you need on holiday including pool towels. Beautifully maintained gardens and a great pool that was cleaned every morning. Would recommend a car to get around the island, at least for a few days.

Stunning views, comfortable rooms, unless super fit will need a car,

If only the on-dite bar were open, serving drinks and snacks, it would be perfect

Owner of this hotel is very kind and friendly. Suitable to spend restful holidays with family.

Was in total need of a relaxing holiday, first visit to Kefalonia and a great base. I would say transport is needed unless you want to stay put, we had a quad for the duration. The island is beautiful and the apartment was a welcoming retreat for relaxing and peace and tranquility, wonderful maid Alex and host Irene make you feel so welcome. Definitely be returning.
