    Weather

    It was early May 2012 and the sun shone every day.

    We had a spectacular storm one night which was well worth watching.

    We stayed at the San Georgio in Skala which is a Thomson hotel B&B.
    The evening meals here were excellent,,,,,

    Holiday

    Very relaxing.

    People are so welcoming.

  • My holiday in Kefalonia

    Review by: Judy & John Goodwin

    Weather

    We went in September, which is cooler but carries with it the additional risk of rain and thunder.

    We had a couple of rainy days but otherwise the weather was fabulous.

    Holiday

    We stayed at Agia Efimia, which is our favourite place on the island.

    We hired an apartment and a car from Starvillas and we strongly recommend that you do the same as Nikos, Katerina and Vicky are wonderful people and nothing is too much trouble to them.

    They have a website; Starvillas.gr.co. This being our 20 visit, we know the island like the back of our hands.

    Would recommend a day visit to Ithaca, which is a beautiful little island, around 40 minutes sail from the port of Sami and is very like Kefalonia but on a tiny scale.

    Weather

    We've been to Kefalonia for the past 10 years or so, most of the time we go the last week in june and the first week in july when the weather is HOT and in the late 30's.

    We went once in september and the weather was still hot.

    Holiday

    We usually stay in Lassi. It's not too far from Argostoli, we stay in NIKOSTUDIOS, which is across the road from the dolphin supermarket, and you can walk up the road,and then once at the top,it's down to Argostoli.

    This takes about 30mins and is a nice and easy stroll or you can catch the local bus or taxi.

    Lassi has quite a few shops, bars and restaurants/tavernas, some good beaches and the people are SO friendly.

    Kefalonia is a very relaxing and laid back island,

    Weather

    Weather was just right during the first week of May in 2012.

    What's the point of going in July and August when it's so hot you are seeking air con all the time?

    Weather was superb this time of year, it was so good we are going again in May next time.

    Holiday

    Was so good we are definitely going again!

    Skala is just right for us as we are in our 70's, but you need to be a bit nimble as some of the terrain can be steep.

    We found Skala was just waking up, so got excellent value for money.

    Found a sandy beach near rocks where you can skinny dip.
    Not far from here is The Sunrise, owned by Victor and his family who serve excellent sardines which is a great lunchtime eat with a beer or wine.

    We found the people very hospitable.

  • Kefalonia. The most beautiful island in the Ionian Sea

    Review by: peter hart

    Weather

    I have been to Kefalonia eight times. Seven of those were and the end of June going into July and once in September. The weather on all occasions was hot, never below 28c and in the evening a pleasant 21c

    Holiday

    We always go to the same place, which is Lixouri, and stay at the Hotel Palatino in the Apartments on self catering. You can stay in the hotel where they have bed and breakfast.

    The town of Lixouri is very Greek and not full of tourists. Most of the time it is the locals going about the daily chores, but in the evening everybody seems to come out to the Town Square where they sit and drink coffee while the children play until the small hours.

    If you are looking for a nice, quiet holiday, choose Lixouri, but hire a car so you go and visit the whole of the island and get a feel for the place.

    Review by: john

    Weather

    Hot- temp 28 degrees at 8am when we got up. Soon reached high 30's. One day reached 45.

    Holiday

    Marvelous. We've been going here for the last 20yrs.This time it was quiet, like the first time. Nice for us but not nice for the local business people.

    It was however cheap prices same as last two years except petrol and alcohol.

    People(many now our friends over the years) are wonderful. Beaches clean, scenery awesome. Food great. Made new friends.

    We always stay in the same family run hotel in the capital, Argostoli (The Mouikis Hotel) really friendly, clean & central.

    I have been to Skala 8 times and every time the weather has been amazing. Once, back in 2002 we had one day with a massive pour down, but it was like taking a hot shower.

    Holiday

    Holidaying in Skala is amazing, hence the 8 visits. Im going tomorrow (13-09-2011) AGAIN. The locals are so friendly and will go out of their way to accommodate and help you.

    Have visited the beautiful island of Kefalonia for the past 6 years. We generally visit the in the last week of June / first week of July.

    Every year the weather has been fantastic. In fact, we haven't even had a bad day's weather.

    Prepare for hot, hot, hot days.

    Holiday

    We have always stayed in Lassi: what a great resort.

    Superb bars and restaurants, adequate supermarkets, excellent hotels / accomodation and finally, probably the best beaches anywhere in the Mediterranean.

  • Lixouri A beautiful place to go

    Review by: Peter Hart

    Weather

    We have been for the last seven years mainly at the end of June but also in September.
    The weather in June was hot : Mid 80's during the day and down to mid 60's in the evening so really pleasent to sleep at night.
    In September it was still in the 80's during the day but we had a couple of days when it rained.
    The evenings were much cooler. You could even have to wear a jumper.

    Holiday

    The holiday in Kefalonia is always very peaceful.
    It is not like the major Greek Islands, with lots of night clubs and a lot of youngsters making a fool of themselves. There are plenty of bars where you can sit and have a drink and they will be playing music but in the evening we just like to sit in the town square and watch the children playing and the parents all getting together for a chat

  • my first holiday in kefalonia hope not my last

    Review by: PATRICIA VAUGHAN

    Weather

    FANTASTIC, WE WENT FROM 5TH JUNE UNTIL 12TH. SO HOT THE LAST 4 DAYS. It rained a little the morning we arrived but within 2 hours it was beautiful. Sat and ate at the harbour. We were in Fiscarda and would like to have stayed longer.

    Holiday

    BRILLIANT LOVELY PLACE. LOVELY PEOPLE. Just driving around was so good. Was a bit nervous to start with on the bends but soon got used to that. I live in Portugal so driving on the other side was no problem, within a day perfectly at home. Found the drivers on the whole very good. But did not go into the bigger busier places. So many restaurants even in Fisgard and every one was so nice. I really hope I return one day. We went with Ionian Island travel. I would recommend them to anyone. Not one single thing went wrong.

  • Our holiday in Katelios, Kefalonia

    Review by: Anonymous

    Weather

    We went at the beginning of May and it was gorgeous, not too hot, perfect. The sea was a bit chilly but was warming up as the week went on.

    Holiday

    Fabulous, we stayed at the Albouro apartments, which were simple but clean and comfy with wonderful views of the mountains and of the sea.

    Katelios is lovely, quiet and unspoilt, a real chilled out place. We ate most every night at the Katelios Taverna (one of several there) and we loved the food and the wonderful hospitality.

    Only one thing, we were at the start of the season, so buses and some excursions weren't available, but car hire is pretty reasonable so treat yourself and have a day round this wonderful island.

    Weather

    The weather was perfect for the month of June 2009, especially during the evening. We did have one stormy day but other than that sunshine all the way.

    Holiday

    We were lucky because we had the use of a
    private beach, although we spent most of the time on the public beach which was marvellous with a lovely little beach cafe.

    We saw most of the island by local bus trips and local buses/ferries

  • Brilliant Holiday in Kefalonia.

    Review by: Sandrina And David.

    Weather

    We have just returned from a brilliant one week stay in Skala, Kefalonia. Our holiday covered the first week in July, and the weather for the whole week was gorgeous. Total Blue skyswith a nice cooling breeze from the sea, and temperatures around the mid 30's.

    Holiday

    Skala is a wonderful, wonderful resort. Just enough shops to keep everyone happy. First class restaurants, and classy cocktails bars.
    We love the totally uncrowded beaches, and the boat trips offered good value for money.
    The local's are very firendly, and you are sure to receive a warm welcome.
    The night time entertainment is low key, but is there anything better than sitting in a beatutiful location with a nice bottle of wine?.
    We can's wait to go back again next year, and hopefully for two week's next time.
