Villa Koralli, Svoronata, Kefalonia

A getaway to Villa Koralli gives holidaymakers the chance to experience Kefalonia at its most relaxing. It’s been built to take advantage of the spellbinding coastal landscape; settled on the edge of the island’s rugged coastline, you’re directly overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea. Buried within the island’s lush countryside on the edge of the valley of Svoronata, there’s never been a more peaceful place to unwind. Sink into the laid-back island life surrounded by olive groves and vibrant fruit orchards climbing back from the shore. Just down the road, you’ll find the village of Svoronata, where you’ll find a sprinkle of restaurants and cafes serving up sumptuous delicacies, delicious coffee, and local pastries. Just fifteen minutes away is the thriving town of Argostoli, with a bustling restaurant and bar scene to tickle your taste buds. For a slice of history, ten minutes by car are the impressive Castle of St. George and St. Andreas Monastery. If you’re after some more stunning beaches, Avithos, Megalipetra, and Ammes are close by, to name just a few.

With an expansive, lush lawn giving guests a front-row seat to the breath-taking scenery, there’s ample space to sit out and gaze over the glistening seascape. Grab your morning coffee and perch on the outdoor sofa, all while listening to the sea below your terrace. Sun seekers won’t be disappointed with a row of sun beds for stretching out under the warm Greek sunshine. You’ll be tempted to dive straight into the sparkling swimming pool, where afternoon swims are backed by hues of azure blue from the scenery. For some reprieve from the sun, the shaded alfresco dining area is calling for evenings spent cooking up fresh produce on the barbecue and having dinner in the crisp sea air.

It's not just the jaw-dropping panoramas that give Villa Koralli the wow factor; the sleek exteriors speak for themselves, elegantly combining classic Ionian architecture with a modern twist. Inside is designed with modernism and comfort in mind, with a soothing palette that create a relaxing atmosphere. The open-plan living space is spacious and bright, illuminated by the natural daylight seeping through the large glass sliding doors. The plush sofa, minimalist décor, sleek dining table, and marble floor tiles transform the area into a contemporary beauty. We’re in awe over the chic kitchen, with glossy tiles and cabinets that are decked with high-end appliances. An ideal escape for a small family, the master double bedroom has a terrace, and the smaller bedroom with a small double bed also has a balcony. Both bedrooms share a shower room.
