“A lovely friendly family run hotel, excellent facilities, clean & comfortable & all the staff were delightful & couldn’t do enough for you. Highly recommended. ”
“A beautiful place. It was clean and quiet with an excellent pool. Rooms were well equipped and very well maintained. Staff were excellent, welcoming and helpful.
It is a 40 walk from Skala but there is an excellent and cheap hotel shuttle and the walk itself was lovely.”
“We had a lovely holiday here and will definitely book again - shame they are full for the rest of this year or we would be back later this summer!
Excellent hosts- especially Zefie and Lea - who make you feel very welcome.
Rooms are basic but comfortable - which is reflected in the star rating/room rate, they are spotlessly cleaned everyday and have everything you need including air conditioning (included in the price).
Pool was great - especially with an ice cold Mythos from the pool bar!
Great……

A Wonderful Stay at Oikos Boutique – Perfect for Families
We had a truly amazing stay at Oikos Boutique. We rented Villa B (Villa Deluxe) as two families – ten people in total, including four adults and six children. Among the children were three tall teenagers (15 and 17 years old) and three young girls aged between 7 and 11.
From the moment we arrived to the day we left, the team at Oikos was simply outstanding. Warm, attentive, and incredibly responsive, they were always available to……
“I stayed at Barefoot Contessa in mid-June 2025. I was holidaying as a solo traveller which I have only done a few times before and so was very anxious leading up to the trip. I needn’t have worried as I had an amazing week. The resort/village and apartments were both fantastic and the staff at Barefoot Contessa/Hemingways were always really friendly and helpful: Dimitra, Olga and Spiros and co.
The apartment was really lovely and clean. Comfortable and nicely furnished. Good shower and……
“We were looked after by very friendly and efficient staff. Array of classes kept us fit and happy which made us enjoy the food even more. Just perfect!”
“This is a great property, well cared for and run. The pool was clean and the kids loved their time here. Highly recommend. Only suggestion would be to make the kitchen utensils etc a little better stocked. Five stars all around - really good value. ”
“We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Sami Beach Hotel. We’d booked 3 nights at the hotel but ended up staying for 10 nights as we were massively let down by the villa owner on the day of arrival in Kefalonia (we’d booked 5 months prior). Caroline on reception and owner Spiro couldn’t have been more helpful. Lovely family run hotel.
20 minutes walk to supermarket and restaurants on the seafront. However the restaurant in the square, few minutes walk is very good and great atmosphere. Would suggest……
