Resort Description
Spilia is located in an attractive elevated position above the popular resort of Lassi and the island's picturesque capital, Argostoli. For anyone wishing to be in close proximity of fabulous stretches of long, Blue Flagged sandy beaches, along with the vast array of shops, restaurants and café bars in both Lassi and Argostoli, then Spilia is definitely the place for you.
Lassi, one of the most popular resorts on the island can be found ashort stroll downhill; it has a series of quiet coves along with two vast swathing long beaches – with a sprinkling of beach bars and watersports thrown in, to whet the appetite of the young and active!
Argostoli is an utterly delightful and particularly photogenic Greek town to wander around in of an evening; the promenade walkways along its colourful and traditional harbour front are legendary, providing its lucky visitors with a large slice of time honoured Greek life, complimentary.

Beautifully positioned villa with amazing views over the bay. Perfect sized pool & amazing sunsets. Midweek clean & towel change was impressive. Pool towels were provided & also changed midweek. Only bad point...the kitchen needed a new set of glasses & some baking trays.

This is the second time we have been to this beautiful villa. The villa, surroundings and sea view are absolutely stunning. The villa is well maintained and cleaned to a very high standard. We found all the local people so friendly and they cannot do enough for you. Restaurants are of an excellent standard and great value for money. They always want to offer you a little extra something, which is a lovely touch and much appreciated. We also visited the beach bar several times, which was good fun. We love Kefalonia!

Fabulous villa, immaculately clean in a great location. There's a short cut to walk down to Lassi where we have never had a bad meal yet, Nefeli's do the most fabulous fillet steaks and great cocktails in Il Gabbiano with Benny the Barman.

We had an amazing holiday and the villa and views were absolutely beautiful. The villa was well equipped and we even had a cute little dog that visited us every day to make sure we were ok! We locked ourselves out one day, so had to call Samantha, our rep. She kept us informed at the owner arrived within an hour to let us in. The Kefalonians were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We loved our holiday! Thank you Solmar Villas!

The view is perfection, so very enchanting and the villa spacious, clean and well equipped - each bedroom having it's own access to a bathroom and outdoor patio. Excellent service from the Solmar Rep, Samantha, and the owner visited with a bottle of wine and was very friendly. Bath and Lounger towels provided, and mid week clean with fresh sheets too. Lovely breeze on the top of the hill and a wide selection of restaurants in Lassi and Argostoli - the villa is well located to catch the ferry to Lixouri or travel up to Assos. We will definitely look to return.

Our family had a fantastic few days in this beautiful villa. The pool was huge and was enjoyed immensely. The views were absolutely breathtaking,so relaxing to lie on the sunlounger watching the boats go by! The villa itself was very spacious and fully equipped,we honestly couldn't fault a thing....just be prepared for a big hike uphill to get there!!

We had an amazing time at the Villa Argostoli. The villa offered just the right space for us and is nicely furnished. The main reason we chose this villa was that the pool was a decent size so we could actually swim lanes. It was perfect for this! The view is simply amazing and we saw some beautiful sunsets. The location is also good, a short drive to Lassi, Argostoli and the airport. We walked to Lassi (took about 20 mins). The villa was cleaned midweek (would have been good to know when they were coming). The owner came as well, and it was good to see that he came to check, asked how our stay was. Overall, it was a very nice and relaxing holiday. Don't miss the turtles in Argostoli harbour!

The villa was excellent, very clean with everything you could need with a lovely pool. The location was perfect as you get a nice breeze at the top of the hill. Easy to walk down into Lassi where there were lots of lovely restaurants and bars. We only had one mediocre meal in two weeks, the rest were very good. You do need a taxi to get back to the villa which normally cost between 6 and 8 euros unless you love a long uphill hike in the dark.

The villa was beautiful and the views of the sea were outstanding. We hired a car as we had elderly relatives with us. There is now a driveway from the main road up to the villas at the point where it says villas to rent. So our directions were slightly out of date...no need to drive up the dirt track! The villa had hairdryers, beach/pool towels and an iron and ironing board...this wasn't mentioned in the description of the villa and is useful to know. It was a short drive to Argostoli, which has a lovely square with lots of restaurants to chose from. On the sea front there were lots of shops and more restaurants to choose from.

Stunning villa stunning views. Just arrived back from a weeks stay at Argostoli Villa First time we've stayed in a villa and we will find it hard now to beat this. We did we found a spacious well appointed villa with everything at hand for your stay with continental decor but it has a warm inviting feel to the place and a great pool a bottle of vino left for us helped too. Perched at the top of the hill its a 15 minute walk to Lassi, which is the view you have at one side with with a lovely beach and some great restaurants. With Agostoli down the other side within the same walking distance.. here you can find the biggest supermarkets, bars and restaurants we only found the towns square, a vibrant place for some amazing cuisine the night before we left. We were a lazy bunch though and always opted for a taxi back to th villa at 6 euros from either side we visited. in fact everywhere you wanted to go was a curious 6 euros, Every bar and restaurant we visited on the island were so friendly and attentive. We did drive around and visit sites. the short cuts up to the villa are fun if you like a 1 in 3 challenge which i found great fun. check out the dresser in the entrance as the bottom drawer has information for the island. All in all i can't recommend this place enough for a totally relaxing stay. Thank you,

Fantastic villa with uninterrupted, amazing sea and mountainous views. We holidayed as a family of 2 adults and 4 children. We needed a little help from the Solmar Villa office with directions, they were extremely helpful and we would definitely book with them again. We arrived to find the villa very inviting, spacious and comfortable and lovely and clean There were some very much appreciated, basic supplies i.e, milk, tea, coffee, biscuits, toilet rolls, etc. It was well equipped and there were plenty of towels. The cleaning team replaced towels and bed linen once during the week. The pool was cleaned and checked on an almost daily basis. The position of the villa was up in the hills where there was a lovely breeze, which meant that when it was a little too hot on the nearby beach, the villa with its own large pool and grassy areas where the children could play proved fantastic. The villa has the most amazing, uninterrupted views of the Ionian sea and the mountains, we could watch the cruise liners go by from the comfort of our sun loungers. We hired a car and would recommend it. We saw a lot more of beautiful kefalonia than we would have done without one and we were able to visit the 'little bit too far to walk beaches and supermarkets'. Brilliant holiday in a lovely villa, will be hard to beat it!
