Top Skala Beach Hotel Reviews

Makis Hotel Skala

Makis Hotel Skala

10/10 Excellent
"A really lovely hotel, within walking distance of the beach and Skala centre. Rooms are small, but comfortable, although the AC does not get the room very cool, hence it’s hot at night. The breakfast is adequate, never changes so becomes rather boring , quality is fair. Staff are excellent and the pool area and bar for drinks and food are very good. There is no restaurant for evening meals or a guest lounge area if it rains. Overall, well worth a stay here but just lacks a few things that could make it great"

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our attic apartment. We had a massive roof top terrace which was so laid back with comfy chairs and a bean bag where we sat at night drinking tea. After a late night drink at Michael’s bar or live music at Metaxa! Staying in the village was really different from staying along the beach road. The views were amazing. Our other balcony was lovely too much smaller but great for just sitting and looking in another direction over the village and the sea. But it was Maria and Effie, mother and daughter that made our holiday with their beautiful smiles and beautiful eyes! It was like staying with friends. It was peaceful and right in the village with access to both sides of Skala depending if you turned left or right. Supermarket just round the corner which opened until at least 11pm. The bed was super comfortable. I think they would have done anything for us so kind generous and welcoming. Epharisto ladies! X"

Villa Piano, Art Villas Kefalonia

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our visit to Piano Villa. It was the perfect size for our family of 2 adults and 4 teenagers. We loved the space and the outdoor area. Everything we needed was available. The hosts got in contact a few days before we arrived, were there when we arrived at the villa, gave a tour and were readily available and in contact. So the perfect hosts. There was a power cut in the area whilst we were there and the hosts were great and checked in on us after the power was back up. We did walk into town one night but drove in the rest but this was not a problem. We did a mixture of days in and days out and on the days in we spent a lovely hour or so on our 'private'beach which was gorgeous and well worth the hike up the hill on the way back."

Tesoro Blu Hotel & Spa - Adults Only

Tesoro Blu Hotel & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Immaculate property. Lovely grounds. Pool area is really nice. Plenty of sun beds, lovely view. Nice and peaceful. Only thing is the sun beds do make a noise and some guests insist on dragging them around rather than wheeling them by simply lifting the bed from the bottom but that’s not really the hotels fault. We love staying here as a base in Kefalonia. Friendly staff have always given us the room we request. Breakfast is fine but could be better, not loads of variety and it’s repetitive. Quality of the coffee and yoghurt is not great which for Greece, could be amazing. But was fine for a week, a few mornings we went to local bakeries for a change which were much better."

"This is a much better hotel than some of the ones in the city centre. We only stayed for one night, but the surrounding area and location are superb. Our flight was delayed, but the owner/staff kindly waited for us, which we really appreciated. A great choice for a short stay."
