Sami Beach Hotel

"Reasonable run clean hotel spoilt by poor quality breakfast; poor coffee and food selection. Staff don't trust people with trays! Plus points no sunbed shortage, area has relaxed feel, staff friendly and helpful. Free beach sunbeds also good. If they can fill the place in summer not sure they care about breakfast comments. Note Sami area is windier area of Kefalonia so beach/swimming more a challenge."

Ionian Emerald Resort

"Great hotel & location just a short walk from the lovely karavamylos taverna 200 yards away to the left and a comfy 20 mins stroll away from Sami with plenty of tavernas & shops. Hotel staff were all lovely and smiling. Breakfast was plentiful. We didn't eat here in the evening as no atmosphere in the bar or restaurant. I did find it quite annoying that the pool was shared with the 3* hotel up the road, especially as there is a 5* climate tax payable here! 105 euro for a 7 night stay! The pool bar regularly ran out of draft beer.. 6 euro for a large beer 5 euro for a 330ml can! Not on really for a 5* "resort plus the 2 euro cover charge if you wanted to eat there,regardless of whether you was staying there or not. Basically, nice hotel, great location & staff... would I stay there again... probably not"

Stalaktites Studios

"Lovely clean accommodation with super friendly staff. Quiet pool with everything you need. Short drive to sami assos, myrtos and antisamos. Easy drive to fiskardo and argostoli. Had a great stay and highly recommend. Also best pizza I've ever had in the traditional wood fired pizza oven!!"

Meliti Waterfront Suites

"Fantastic apartment at Meliti suites. The penthouse (Ammos) apartment is so worth the extra cost. The wide balcony runs along the front and round the side so every room has a sea view. One bedroom with a side view out to Sami has an en-suite. The middle bedroom is double aspect with doors facing to the front and side. The 3rd bedroom is smaller and looks out to sea. Lovely indoor sitting/dining/kitchen area and lots of seating options on the balcony, from where you hear the sea breaking on the pebble beach. Great location between Sami (a few mins drive or 20 min walk, The Cellar is a great restaurant) and the even nicer Agia Effimia (10 mins drive. Walk away from the harbour up to Pergola or along to Sea Rock for dinner) and less than 10 mins walk from Melissani lake. There was a really long queue when we went to the lake (a cruise ship was visiting the island) so we just went back another day. And there’s a lovely bakery/cafe just a couple of mins walk away. The staff were very helpful before we arrived and very pleasant when we were there. Photos are of the view from the balcony. "

Hotel Athina

"Despite our stressful start to our holidays thanks to Loveholidays for not paying for our accommodation, we had a lovely time in hotel Athina. Both Elena and Maki are really lovely. They helped us with an issue created by the travel agency in the middle of the night. As previous reviews said, Maki knows everyone's name and if you have any issues, Maki will fix it!! Bonus, we could use a lovely pool at Ionian Emerald hotel. Beach is great and swimming in that gorgeous sea was the highlight of the holidays. Thank you so much, Maki. Ευχαριστώ πολύ. "
