Villa Ydria Kefalonia

Greece, Kefalonia

Beach: 2km

Villa Ydria Kefalonia is a luxury villa rental with 2 bedrooms and a private pool. Villa Ydria exudes nobility from both the Lygourian style 2,5-acre garden and also from the special traditional stone Villa situated within. In southern Paliki, west of the Lixouri city and between two famous beaches, Xi beach with the red sand and Laggadakia with its white pebbles, lies the Traditional Stone Villa Ydria built according to traditional Venetian Genoese architecture, influenced by people who lived in Kefalonia early in the last century.

Villa Ydria Kefalonia is decorated with the coat of arms of its owners with related references to be found in books about Genoese nobles. Additionally, the Villa was entirely monitored architecturally by a Venetian Artist. The building has two levels. The Villa’s main entrance on the ground floor leads to the kitchen and the living room with an open plan dining area. The living room connects to the dining room and kitchen with its breakfast area. The dining room has a sliding door leading directly to the pool (21m x 7m) and a garden with a stone dining area consisting of a wooden table, two sitting benches (one is monasterial style) and chairs.

One bedroom is located on the ground floor as well as one lavatory (WC) designed specifically to accommodate people with special needs/disabilities. Of special interest in the living room is the fireplace made of carved, stone blocks. The internal staircase leads to the first level and the 2nd bedroom. The architecturally designed lightning system, adds to create a soft and cosy atmosphere, especially in the evenings. The top-level bedroom leads to an outdoor stone terrace where one can sit and enjoy beautiful views of the Ionian Sea, the pool below and the surrounding natural landscapes and garden where orange, lemon, apricot and of course, olive trees are in abundance. If you are not a fan of cooking, you can pass on the beautiful antique style kitchen, and use the outdoor barbeque as an alternative for romantic dinners under the stars.

The stone masons of Kefalonia are alive and well :) This villa has some of the best stone work you will find anywhere in the world.......10/10 well done to them (sorry its a man thing). Lovely rural setting a short drive from a quiet pretty natural beach. Very well laid out landscaped gardens with lots of different places to sit and enjoy the sun. Lovely big Smart TV so you can log in to your own Prime or Netflix account and watch English language films whilst away.......perfect ! Beautiful sunsets from the large 1st floor balcony.

The villa is set in a very quiet location with stunning views. It is spotlessly clean and although we didn’t meet the host in person (due to Covid), he was super helpful. We are a family of 5 and there was plenty of room for us. The outside area is amazing with a good size pool and large sheltered bbq area. A car is essential. Lixouri is the nearest town (about a 12/15 min drive) with lots of nice restaurants and Xi beach has some great beachside restaurants as well as water sport facilities.

Sehr zu empfehlen.

Sehr schöne Villa in ruhiger Lage. Mit dem Auto ist man innerhalb 15 Minuten an den schönsten Stränden. Schöner Pool und großes Grundstück - wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Sehr zu empfehlen.

We have just come back from a weeks holiday at Villa Ydria and had a fantastic time. The villa is set in a tranquil, rural spot in the Kefalonian countryside. The outside of the property is well maintained and generous in every way. The bbq seating area was a real bonus and perfect for those lazy evenings. Inside, the villa is clean and well equipped. There are two good sized bedrooms and the living room has plenty of space. Over all, the villa was a perfect place to spend a very happy family holiday. I would highly recommend the villa for a holiday.

Bei unserer Anreise wurden wir sehr herzlich von unserem Gastgeber Vangelis in Empfang genommen. Er zeigte die wunderschöne Villa und gab uns wertvolle Insidertips für unseren Aufenthalt auf Kefalonia. Das Haus befindet sich in einem super gepflegten Zustand, die Räumlichkeiten waren sehr sauber und sind komfortabel ausgestattet! Zusätzlich wurden das Haus und die Poolanlage regelmäßig gereinigt, die Handtücher gewechselt und die Betten frisch bezogen. Das Haus und die gesamte Anlage bieten sehr viel Platz, der Pool und der Grillbereich bieten den perfekten Rahmen für entspannte Tage! Das Haus befindet sich in einer sehr ruhigen, zentralen Lage der Insel, der perfekte Ausgangspunkt für tägliche Ausflüge On our arrival we were very warmly welcomed by our host Vangelis. He showed the beautiful villa and gave us valuable insider tips for our stay in Kefalonia. The house is in a super clean condition, the rooms were very clean and are comfortably equipped ! In addition, the house and the pool area were cleaned regularly, the towels changed and the beds freshly made. The house and the whole area provides a lot of space, the pool and the barbecue area are the perfect setting for relaxing days! The house is located in a very quiet, central location of the island, the perfect starting point for daily excursions!

The villa was lovely. The outside space in particular was huge with lots of areas for relaxing and socialising. The decor was very tasteful and we had everything we needed. You will need a car however as there was only really one restaurant within walking distance which was along the beach road but there are lots of lovely places to eat within the vicinity - you just need to explore a little. Take care driving as some of the roads on the peninsula are very narrow and rough. We had a lovely stay on Kefalonia.

We stayed at villa ydria for the 20 August to the 3rd September. I would say the outside of the villa was amazing pool ,BBQ area but sunbeds need a clean. WIFI was very good did like the added touch of the movies on a memories stick AC was great.

Villa was amazing, everything was very clean and the outside area was large and private. We were there with our children a 4 year old and 1 year old and we felt the grounds were secure enough to let them roam around. Pool steps were good for the little ones. Beautiful little pebble beach just a 2 minute drive away. I would definitely recommend a hire car if you're staying here. Nothing really in walking distance apart from 1 taverna. Our host Vangelis was great. He met us off the Lixouri ferry and showed us to the villa. He was always at the end of the phone if we needed anything and arranged for someone to come round and do us a fish BBQ. Will definitely stay again. Highly recommended
