We stayed for four nights in Apt 2. It was so much fun! We met Tassos, Chloe's brother, at the petrol station nearby so he could show us the way to the house in our hire car. The house is quite off the beaten track so it's good to hire a car if you can. The place is really lovely, very relaxed and peaceful with beautiful gardens and a nice big patio to have dinner and watch the stars from. It has everything you need to make big dinners, and a coffee maker for breakfast. Chloe's mum left us a big bowl of apricots from their garden, some lemons and some homemade jam which was a lovely welcome. She also gave me a bunch of dried lavender to put in my wardrobe at home which was so nice. Chloe and her brother Tassos are both great and we enjoyed hanging out with them one night to watch the Greece vs Costa Rica World Cup match! The beach is really secluded - we saw about four other people there in the four days we went, and the water is so clear and lovely to swim in. You can swim to Skala beach if it takes your fancy. Overall, we had a brilliant time and will hopefully go back at some point - maybe to the bigger apartment so we can go with a group of friends!Jennifer2014-07-01T00:00:00Z
Kefalonia was beautiful and Chloe was a gracious hostess. We would HIGHLY recommend her location to any family wanting to get away from the crowd. A car or scooters are a must- this is a big island with tons to do. Skala was a nice town with all the supplies you could need and Mounda Beach is huge with beautiful, soft sand. We look forward to going back.Scott2015-07-07T00:00:00Z
I can't even begin to tell you how perfect the stay was at Chloe's house. We stayed on the bottom floor in the studio apartment. There were just two of us and it was absolutely perfect. We rented a car ( I don't think you can stay on the island without a car since there is entirely too much to see). The shops were only a short drive away and there were several places to choose from to pick up groceries for breakfast and lunch. I recommend you eat out for dinner. The food in Kefalonia is so fresh and delicious! I don't have a complaint at any restaurant we tried. I had no idea that a vacation could be this perfect and Chloe helped by pointing out a few places we had to go see. We hardly saw her at all and if we needed her we just knocked on her door and she was happy to help in any way. The beach was a short walk away, in fact we stayed at that beach the entire time we were in Kefalonia. There was no reason to leave, it was BEAUTIFUL. We will definitely be back and I will be staying here again. Thank you SO much, Chloe.Mauricia2013-07-03T00:00:00Z
Zoe was great, very welcoming and helpful. The apartment is located outside Skala and is perfectly located for a quiet and relaxing break. The apartment is set in its own garden and there is access to a secluded beach.The apartment itself is very comfortable and well equipped. There are lovely walks accessible from the apartment along the beach and up into the hills behind. Thorough recommend. Thanks Zoe.Martin2016-06-01T00:00:00Z
Our stay at Chloe's at the end of October was PERFECT! Chloe was so kind and considerate. The flat was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was amazing to have a view of the sea and blue sky from the bed! We loved having the secluded sandy beach at the bottom of the garden and swam everyday. It was really quiet but that suited us perfectly. We didn t hire a car but did a different beautiful coastal walk from the house every day. It was just the quiet retreat we needed and we have returned rested and refreshed. Thank you so much Chloe! Mark and RebeccaRebecca2014-11-01T00:00:00Z
So, just like all the previous reviews, Chloe's place is really, really special. Yes, it is out of the way but thats exactly what my boyfriend and I wanted: it's a little retreat away from anything else. You will definitely need a car or moped to get to the house as its down a track (we hired a 100cc moped to get around the island, as Kefalonia has so many beautiful sights to see you definitely need to be able to independently drive around and explore). Chloe was so sweet and met my boyfriend on the scooter (he must have looked ridiculous with all our stuff tied on the bike) where he then followed her to the house so he could find his way. We stayed in the smallest apartment which was absolutely fine for us two. It was really clean and light; we felt very at home. The views are amazing, and the beach is so close, you just need to walk down this small path, it was wonderful. Chloe's place was perfect for us as we had already been to Kefalonia the year before (we loved the beaches so much we came back) so we didn't feel the need to explore much, so really our week at Chloe's (which was our second week of our holiday) consisted of going to the beach near the house and just relaxing and cooking in the apartment. The sunrise and sunsets around the house were beautiful. I can't recommend this place and Chloe enough. But definitely, if you are Kefalonia first timers, don't get too comfortable at the house (you definitely will!) theres so many beautiful sights to see in Kefalonia so make sure you visit it all but make the most of the house too. Thanks so much for having us Chloe and will hopefully be back one day soon!Oonagh2014-06-17T00:00:00Z
The hosts are super nice. We felt free like at home with a big garden and sweet animals.Victoria2015-06-09T00:00:00Z
My wife and I stayed in Apt 2 for two weeks during our stay on Kefalonia. This house is the perfect haven, especially after the business and noise of the city. The views are fantastic, and being about a 30 min walk from Skala makes for a good combination of accessibility and peace. The descriptions are spot on - you really, truly, no joke, have what is essentially your own private beach (especially during the week). We enjoyed several days at the beach that is a 10 minute walk from the house without seeing another soul. Beyond the comfort of the home, the hospitality of the Benedatos family is wonderful. Before we got our rental car, Tassos drove us into town for groceries and we went along with the family for a day trip to Argostoli. We were hosted in their own apartment for a dinner along with other guests staying at the time. And finally, Chloe brought us back to the port at the end of our stay, helping us find and buy ferry and bus tickets. We definitely recommend this place for an extended stay - we felt like locals by the end of the two weeks!Brooklin2013-10-01T00:00:00Z

The highlight of our Greek vacation, we were tempted to stay an additional night at Thanos' cottage. We were met by Thanos' mother who showed us everything about the cottage. The kitchen had been stocked with many staples, and was so pleasant that we decided to go to the local market to get a few more things to cook so we could spend more time in this lovely space. We could not have asked for anything better for our night in Olympia. We want to return to Greece partly to get the chance to stay in Thanos' cottage again!Dawn2013-08-24T00:00:00Z
This is a really beautiful house hidden up on a hill, but a five or so minute walk to the restaurants of the village of Olympia. It is a really lovely place, very convenient, relaxing and stylishly designed. Although it is a private house, the owner is connected to a hotel around the corner, so picking up keys, etc, was easy and the staff really helpful and friendly. We were also greeted with a lovely bottle of red on arrival. It is rather more rustic than the photos show, but my only complaint is that it lists having a pool in both the amenities and in the description but the pool did not have water in it. I didn't complain about this at the time, thinking I must have gotten this wrong. And on closer inspection, the photos show the pool to be empty, but then the pool probably shouldn't be listed in the description. To some people that might be a big deal, but the other positives made up for it, hence the five stars.Richard2014-05-16T00:00:00Z
This is the perfect location to enjoy the city of Olympia. All museums and cafes are within easy walking distance. The outdoor kitchen is great for watching the sunrise and easy star gazing can be enjoyed from the hammock. Thanos is a great host!!Jessica2017-02-28T00:00:00Z
This was an incredible place to stay for two people!! It was a whole to ate cottage close to town and the ancient Olympic ruins. We spend one night here and would have loved to stay longer. It was clean and perfectly described on Airbnb. We did not meet Thanos, but we arranged to pick the keys up at his restaurant just down the hill from the cottage. It was a very smooth transition! I highly recommend this place!! We would stay here again. Thanks Thanos!J2015-06-30T00:00:00Z
Thanos warmly met us and showed us the place. First impression was "Wow!" Just as was written. Very rustic. The privacy in openness of the place makes it simply romantic. There is a full kitchen but not fully functional. The fridge, the stove and the kitchen sink work well. But the pots and pans are a little rusty. There's a coffee maker but no water boiler. Perhaps it's not intended for cooking to keep the unbeatable romantic ambience.See Onn2016-05-31T00:00:00Z
Excellent location and very nice place. The house is full of charm, and the swimming pool is more than welcome after a day of sightseeing ! Thanos was not here when we arrived, but we get the keys at the restaurant nearby. We met him on Sunday, and he was very friendly. We had a small problem with the sink in the outdoor kitchen but Thanos managed to send somebody right away, and it was fixed within 10 minutes. I strongly recommend.Caro et Raph2015-05-19T00:00:00Z
One of the best vacations ever. A perfect place for romantic escape for two. Very worm and friendly hosts. We loved it and would be back gladly.Dalit2013-08-02T00:00:00Z
Well this is a very cool, funky looking place. In it favour are its location, unique style and some nice touches like a bottle of wine and a nice cake on arrival. On the other side, there is no handrail for the steps leading to the bedroom (dangerous after drinking that bottle of wine) and a fireplace with a chimney that doesn't work and causes the entire place to be filled with smoke. I kind of enjoyed this quirky place but I'm not sure I'll be back. Very dodgy internet.David and Sally2013-12-14T00:00:00Z

amazing food in the apt restaurant cook by Ivana and nice room view plus great house beach, very recommendable!Elle2015-09-29T00:00:00Z
Ivana and Dionisis were wonderful hosts, and we loved every minute of our stay. The apartment was incredibly spacious, clean and had great views of the water which was exactly what we wanted. The restaurant they have next door is also a great addition, we were there every morning for their amazing omelettes and iced coffees. Ivana helped us with quad bike hire and also gave us a recommendation to go to the other side of the island to one of the beaches, we took her advice and found the beautiful beach to be the highlight of the trip. Will definitely stay again when we come back, the location was perfect for a quiet getaway.Ellana2015-07-21T00:00:00Z
Our hosts were very friendly and gave us a warm welcome. The apartment was nice and very modern with a good shower and comfortable bed. Thank you so much Ivana and Dionisis!Gert2015-05-04T00:00:00Z
Staying at Makris Gialos Apartments is definitely the best decision you can make if you are going to Zakynthos! We stayed there for 6 days in the middle of May and have expierienced wonderful moments, starting with a very warm welcome including traditional, Greek Uzo spirit. We stayed in superior suit and it was even better than in pics- beautiful, cozy, fully equipped and clean with stylish interior design but still with Greek personality- exactly what we were looking for. Coffee on the sunny balcony with an amazing sea view- is there any better way to start the day? Then fresh, delicious breakfast at To Petrino- the Tavern next door that Ivana and Dionisis run. There's also a bakery van coming every morning, unfortunately we never managed to wake up on time ;) The beach nearby is surely one of the most beautiful on the island and a hidden gem of Zakynthos. There's a small cheap boat to Shipwreck Bay and Blue Caves departing from there. Ivana and Dionisos are people with huge hearts and are so helpful and kind- their advice and tips, help with renting a car and even lending us a sunblock made our stay way easier :) We felt at home there and Ivana and Dionisis made us feel like a part of their family. We recommend this place to people who mostly value privacy and would like to spend romantic holidays far from crowds and typical tourist locations (which you can reach by car of course). If we'll ever be back in Zante we'll surely choose Makris Gialos again. Ivana and Dionisis- thank you so so much for everything, you showed us what real Greek hospitality means. All the best, Monika and JoshJosh2015-05-12T00:00:00Z
The host canceled this reservation 45 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.Marjorie2015-08-16T00:00:00Z
We enjoyed so much our stay at Ivana and Dionisis's place. Ivana and Dionisis are great host!! They are so nice and so accommodating! Their place was very close to the sea, and close to the blue caves and shipwreck. The room that we had was very very clean!! If we can go back to Zakinthos, we will certainly go back to their place!Jiao2016-05-07T00:00:00Z
We are very happy with the choice we have made to stay at this pension, the place was stunning! We recommend for everybody :-)Aleksandra2016-09-12T00:00:00Z
choosing to stay at ivana's and dionysos' wonderful place is definitely the best way to stay at the beautiful island of zakynthos. we immediately felt like at home in this neat apartment and after a very warm wellcome. the rooms are very comfortable, bright and super clean! from the balcony you get the nicest view to the 'housebeach'. ivana speaks so many languages fluently, gives you the best advices which spots are worth visiting and on top - owns a taverna with her husband dionysos just next to the apartment house. the coffee is so good and the food - splendid! we can definitely say that staying here was the best option for us and made our visit a real joy! thank you ivana and dionysos for everything, we definitely will come back again! annemarie & inesamelie2014-09-14T00:00:00Z

Angelina is a good host and one feels welcome being her guest. The apartment in Bochali is very nice indeed as already stated by other guests. We were pleasently surprised about the sea view which I could not identify looking at the pictures (from both verandas there is sea view). In high season, thus starting end of July until August one needs to be aware that the street in front of the house is quiet noisy during night (especially on Fridays/ Saturdays starting from 23.00 - 04.00) when all tourists return to their homes (it is the only street back to Zakynthos town and since Bochali has a breathtaking view to the harbour and some nice bars / club / taverna, it is frequented a lot). The room facing the street definitely needs earplugs. There are some loud dogs as well which is why I would generally recommend earplugs. Angelina ensured, however, that in low season it is a remote and quiet place which I can imagine. Zakynthos and Angelina's apartment are worth a trip! So please go and visit this nice spot. You will not regret it.Diana2015-07-26T00:00:00Z
What an incredible stay. This place is truly an island treasure. Angelina was an awesome host, and really fun to talk to. Communication with her prior to and during our stay was very easy and she was always quick to respond to our messages and inquiries. The place itself - we can't say enough nice things. Such a cool vibe all around. The apartment is filled with amazing books and awesome art, and is so comfortable to hang out in. The two balconies give amazing, sweeping views of two sides of the island from atop a hill overlooking Zakinthos town and the main port. There are some nice restaurants right up the street and the area is very popular with tourists and locals alike - especially during sunset when people come for pictures and an evening stroll. This does not feel like an empty vacation rental, but much more like a cool, artistic home that you could easily move right into. The apartment matches the pictures very well and we would absolutely stay here again - and hope to soon! One tip to newcomers - the directions to the property are accurate, but road signs and street layouts are still a bit confusing. We'd recommend making sure that you have a map and make a few notes of the route prior to arriving. Incredible stay! Thanks Angelina!Charlie2015-07-11T00:00:00Z
Angelina's apartment is wonderful. We were a group of four and we now have many treasured memories of breakfast, drinks and dinners on the breezy balconies - overlooking the beautiful Zakynthos island. A holiday to remember. The apartment is just as described and listed and is exceptionally well equipped. Nice, cool and quiet, we loved staying somewhere with a heart and character - from the well stocked book collection to the sound system, and small touches in the kitchen. Angelina was amazing, from arrival to leaving. Kind and relaxed she provided us with invaluable island info and we especially appreciated the couple of beers in the fridge cold for our arrival! We would not hesitate to stay here again and are in fact already planning our next trip! Thanks again Angelina.Celine2015-07-05T00:00:00Z
Great place for those who are searching for a lovely place in an area far away from hell like Laganas or Tsivili. It is something you are doing for your soul. The apartment is almost fully equipped and if you need there is also an air condition you can use. It is a real apartment with character. You will feel like home after 2 days which gave us a good feeling. We never used air conditioning because the breeze is incredible when you open the doors from both balconies and just enjoy the beautiful view and the wind. I would definitely come back but it is generally recommended to have a rental car to explore the island and be quick in downtown for example for the best Pita at "Souvlakeria" at the port 100 meter right side of the only gas station there ..Location of the apartment is Bochali area at the top of Zakinthos but the villa is not in the place where tourist come to have a perfect view on Zakinthos town and port, but is close to that place but absolutely without noise except neighbors dog :-) The location is perfect and photos are real! Angelina is a perfect host and cares about her guests so please be friendly and care about her :-) The days before we have been 6 days to Kefalonia island in a 5 star resort with swimming pool and so on....if I had the chance to plan my holiday again probably would not do the tourist hotel thing again but of course these are two different options and depends on what you expect and what your needs are. Thank you Angelina!Thomas2015-07-31T00:00:00Z
We met Angelina the first day and after that we had really great time togheter! She is really friendly and very kind, the house reflect all about her good taste of life style! We had not problem to travel around the island because she is better than the Lonely Planet:-);-)! Hope to see her again!Caterina 2014-06-16T00:00:00Z
Very exciting experience! The apartment is quiet and the view at Bouchali is excellent! Angelina treated us very well and gave us many valueable information about Zakynthos.Deng2015-10-04T00:00:00Z
My experience with Angelina was not the best. As a super host I know what it takes to be a good host and she was lacking. When we arrived she gave us intructions and she was nice. But one of her instructions was to use the A/c sparingly. According to her, it was cool enough to not use the A/C. I'm sorry, this was a beach vacation and it was hot. The first time we turned on the a/c during the day she came to our door and asked us if we were hot. I thought it was strange but I said yes and let it go. That night, she sent me a message through airbnb saying that we were turning on the A/c too much and it was disturbing her as she slept downstairs in an adjoining apartment. Yes, she forgets to mention in her listing that she lives right underneath this listing and apparently can hear and see everything you do. We were not comfortable sitting on her balcony because she was right downstairs. So, this listing should have listed no a/c if she did not want us to use it. That was wrong on so many levels. So we accommodated her till the last night when it got to hot to even sleep and I told her that we were going to use her a/c because on her listing she says she has one. And if I had known she was that close we would have used another booking. We like our privacy. She was nice enough to help us rent scooters and she even shared a bottle of wine with me our last day. I thought things were ok. We even invited her to eat dinner with usone night. Her exit instructions are to leave the place clean, leave dirty laundry where they are. To my surprise one day after we left we got a request for 50euro cleaning fee: her words, we left some sand in the floor, the dishes we washed weren't to her liking and we left some of our belongings behind. She also claimed that we left suitcase marks on the wall. Which can't be put on us as we are not the only one to use that listing that summer! We also swept right before we left. It is not my job to clean your listing after so that it's ready for the next person. You always should clean your listing before he next guest. I don't know if she had a bad day but I know we did not leave her listing the way she said we did. I am a super host on here and have used airbnb as a traveller on many occasions with no complaints from anyone. So, to not rock the boat I paid her impromptu cleaning fee but I don't recommend her listing to anyone. There is no hammock, even Though the pictures and her listing says so and She has conditions on her A/c...Shirley2015-09-18T00:00:00Z
Very cozy apartment, with a nicely designed living room and great sound system! The shelves full of books creates a warm and relaxed environment. The best of the apartment are the two terraces, where you can relax admiring the sunrise (on the east terrace) and the sunset (on the west terrace). On the west side terrace there is a beautiful scenery looking towards down the hill. There is a very good Greek tavern close to the apartment excellently located. Angelina was very nice and helpful with information, and she changed towels and sheets when we requested. There are very few minuses of the apartment: it is far from the beach (you can hardly walk to the beach); one of the rooms is quite small, not suitable for claustrophobic persons :); the water is not drinkable.Dragos2016-08-19T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing experience at Villasabella! :) The Villa is managed from Giorgio and Isabella, Angelo's parents. Isabella reminded me of an old relative, she is very friendly, kind and always available to give good advice. You can spot her little cat running around the Villa, which is always ready to play or get cuddled. The Villa is situated in a quiet part of Laganas, it is perfect for anybody who wants to rest from the chaotic nightlife and is planning for a relaxed vacation in Greece. The room was much more a studio, it had a bathroom and cooking spot. It was very big, comfy and clean, with air conditioning, wifi and tv. The villa is near a few supermarkets and bike rentals where you can either book a scooter or a quad to travel around the island. Zakynthos is a beautiful place, the sea is amazingly blueish and the food excellent. I would recommend anybody to book a room in Villasabella and would definitely consider to book again in the future.Jessica2015-08-31T00:00:00Z
Nice place, you can relax and sleep whenever you want, because the house is about 1.5 km far from the center of Laganas and if you stay there you can't go to bed before 3 or 4 o'clock, depend on what time all discos and pubs close. Because of the distance, I recommend to rent a quad or a car(ask to the hosts because some agencies are dishonest). The hosts were really nice and helpful for the 1st week and during the second one they haven't greeted us and they were really detached. The house is nice and big and the only negative point is the cleaning service. Recommended to young people.Nicholas2014-08-27T00:00:00Z
The residence is managed by a couple, Giorgio (from Italy) and Isabella (from Zakynthos) since 2000. It is located just outside Laganas, far from the noisy part of the resort. I stayed there for nearly a week at the beginning of August 2014. The room, at the ground floor, was wide, actually it was more like a small apartment: besides two beds and a private bathroom, there was a kitchenette, a refrigerator and a porch. The forniture was essential but functional, I found everything that I needed. Isabella and Giorgio are very nice people, we always had a relaxed chat when I was coming back to the residence at the end of my day and they are always open to give valuable suggestions about where to go, what to do, good restaurants, etc. In Villasabella Residence I found a cozy, relaxing and familiar atmosphere. I would recommend this accommodation without any hesitation.Andrea2014-08-06T00:00:00Z
Highly reccomendable! Angelo was not in greece at the time but we were very well taken care of by his wonderful parents, Giorgio and Isabella. We made a mistake and reserved the room one month after, but they took care of it with no problem at all. The place is very tidy and clean, and we felt instantly at home. Isabella even lent us some of her homemade olive oil. Great place. Grazie mile a Isabella, Giorgio e Angelo.teresa2015-08-01T00:00:00Z
Villasabella ECCEZIONALE!!! Le camere sono pulitissime e funzionali, la location è centrale e comoda a tutto, Giorgio e Isabella stati gentilissimi ed INDISPENSABILI con i loro quotidiani consigli su dove, come e quando visitare le meraviglie dell'isola. Perchè Zante è molto grande, e senza i consigli giusti si rischia di perdere tempo in giri troppo turistici o di mancare qualche posto fondamentale... con Giorgio ed Isabella si va sul sicuro, perchè loro conoscono benissimo l'isola, all'inizio del soggiorno ci hanno dato una mappa con tutte le descrizioni dei posti dove andare, e ottimi consigli su taverne e posti dove andare a mangiare. Siamo stati veramente bene, e tutto questo grazie anche a questo splendido residence, il perfetto mix per chi vuole vedere e fare mille cose a Zante. Sicuramente uno dei migliori posti di airbnb dove siamo stati. Grazie Giorgio e Isabella, e ci vediamo presto per "scoprire" le meraviglie del "livello 2"!! :)Valerio2014-08-08T00:00:00Z
Abbiamo passato una settimana indimenticabile! Io e il mio compagno siamo stati accolti dai padroni di casa, ci è stato spiegato come funziona il tutto, e ci hanno dato dei preziosissimi consigli su dove andare, quale strada prendere, dove andare a mangiare, ecc. Non hanno sbagliato un colpo! Grazie a loro siamo riusciti a vedere le cose più belle dell'isola. L'appartamento è delizioso, con un bel letto e un balconcino meraviglioso dal quale si può ammirare il tramonto! È stata una bellissima casa temporanea, ci siamo sentiti proprio a nostro agio! Al momento della partenza la signora ci ha prenotato un taxi che ci avrebbe portato all'aeroporto l'indomani all'alba. Che dire: disponibilità e cordialità non sono mancati per niente! Spero di poter tornare in quel piccolo paradiso!Marta2016-09-09T00:00:00Z
Appena arrivati la signora isabella si è mostrata subito molto gentile disponibile e ha cominciato immediatamente a dare consigli che nel corso delle giornate si sono dimostrati preziosissimi. La camera nella sua semplicità si è rivelata essere un grazioso luogo dove stare in tutta comodità e poter fare colazione al mattino in tranquillità sul terrazzino che da sul giardino. Villa isabella si colloca infatti nel verde pur essendo molto vicino al centro di laganas (raggiungibile tramite bicicletta o mezzi ). Proprio a 10 metri dalla villa é possibile affittare in tutta comodità una macchina o quad o motorino.dalila2015-08-16T00:00:00Z

We had a really wonderful weeks holiday staying in Rolf and Klara's beautiful eco (URL HIDDEN) inspiration and a way to learn of other paths for living 'gently on our planet' and in tune completely with one's environment. From the moment we arrived they made us feel welcome, explained all the homes wonderful eccentricities which we all enjoyed and made the most of our compost toilet with the amazing view, showering outside between the olive trees from water heated by the sun during the day and even sleeping beneath the stars......Every window and balcony a wonderful sea view...a perfect way to escape for a while our busy home lives. We walked 10 mins to the local beach, swam, snorkelled and paddled on his surf board..then we climbed home at the end of the day, showered in the water warmed by the sun and ate al fresco. Thank you both Rolf and Klara for being so welcoming.Mary and Bob2015-09-07T00:00:00Z
Ιt was a unique experience in every respect! Such a nice surprise to meet Rolf and this small paradise that I have been hearing (strange) stories about ever since I was a child. Ευχαριστούμε για την εμπειρία!Makis2014-05-20T00:00:00Z
Hi I cant rate the stay myself and my wife had too highly, it was just how it was described and better. The views at breakfast and the evening were immense whilst we sat and ate and drunk watching the sun come and go. The hosts were such pleasant people and couldn't be more helpful. If you want a beautiful and tranquil stay then this is the place to come and try.Mike 2016-09-30T00:00:00Z
A week in Ithaca and staying at Rolf & Klara's was for us incredible and not to be forgotten experience - thanks for everything, we will see you next time.. :)Jennifer2014-05-14T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful holiday in Ithaki, and staying at this beautiful house was a big part of it. The cottage is small but perfect, full of beautiful things and surrounded by incredible views. Utterly relaxing to be in the sunshine, at the beach, and under the stars. Great to get back to basics too with eco-living and using the well. Thank you Rolf and Klara, for your hospitality and thank you Ithaki for all the happy days!Rosie2013-05-26T00:00:00Z
Rolf is the most welcoming host and took well care to show us around the house. The place is perfect for slow, silent sunny days. The house Rolf has built is more than inspiring for people who are interested in eco living in the middle of nature - here one can wash with rain water between olive trees and sleep in darkness under the stars. And the cat is lovely, but always hungry! :D I would go back there anytime.Anniina2015-06-01T00:00:00Z
An amazing experience with beautiful hosts. The little cottage is quiet & clean but not at all conventional or boring. A direct reflection of the hosts Clara & Ralf. They were generous, great cooks & inspirational. The beaches within walking distance were completely different to each other - one quiet & the other with catering, music & lounge chairs. The water was clean, clear & warm. The local village can be walked to but would recommend hitch hiking as the locals are happy to pick you up or one of the hosts would go there every day. A fantastic place to unwind & relax. I shall miss it.Catherine2013-07-20T00:00:00Z
Rolf and Clara are very welcoming and friendly and they have created a beautiful, unique environment in which to spend time in nature. The house is ethically built using found objects and has a lovely atmosphere. The sunrise and views at night are stunning. You are completely alone in a private natural world, which is a real privilege. However, we did find the facilities to be very basic - even more so than we were expecting, and we are quite used to these kinds of set-ups. In the summer months, it gets very hot here and there is no fridge or fan. We had only a drop loo and an outdoor hose for a shower. Some of our group found these conditions challenging. For the right kind of person, this is a fantastic holiday destination but we recommend you check first that it is for you.Victoria 2013-08-04T00:00:00Z

Awesome host and incredibly beautiful place overlooking Turtle island. Very cosy and spaciousMikhail2016-10-09T00:00:00Z
You get more than you pay for! Personally I leave in zante so I know the location pretty well. It's the perfect place if you want to relax just by the sea. If you happen to be there near a full moon date I promise that you will never forget it as the moon rays are reflected by the sea just in front of your eyes!Thomas2016-03-16T00:00:00Z
Thanos was very welcoming and even helped me with my baggage up the stairs. The house even had spaces and everything i needed to use toiletry wise including a blow dryer. I had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend.Antria2016-03-18T00:00:00Z
I had a really nice stay. Thank you Thanos.Georgio2016-04-02T00:00:00Z
More stunning view than even the pictures can convey. We were there for a week and Thanos made us feel at home. Any problems we had were fixed immediately. It was like staying at 5 star hotel with concierge service. He gave our clothes to his Grandmother to wash and fold neatly for us when the washer broke down!! The welcome package gave us a recommendation itinerary which we followed and it made our vacation. You really need a car to visit all the island and his home but it is worth it because you are away from all the tourist traps. I have already sent the link to 3 friends who saw my pictures and were floored. Thanks again Thanos.zhiwen2016-09-28T00:00:00Z

We were blessed to have chosen this house for our 2 days vacation in Karpenissi. It is in the best location of the town, where you can enjoy the nice view to the green mountains :). The home is very beautifully decorated and supplied with all a guest may need. It has great views all around, it is warm all the time (even though the weather was a little bit cold), and most importantly it has Maria, the perfect host, who is always ready to make the best for her guests, Maria was really willing to help wherever and whenever we need any thing, this was highly appreciated. Everything was as described. Easy to find, easy to access, basically it is really a nice house:). If going to visit Karpenissi, it is the best place to stay.Waleed2017-03-02T00:00:00Z
Maria is very responsive, she gave us a detailed description of how to reach the place and she was also available on the phone when we got a little bit lost on the way. The house is lovely and comfortable and met all our expectations. We loved the fire place!Nada2016-04-11T00:00:00Z

It was indeed a cosy and comfortable house, and we very much enjoyed our stay. The kitchen, and whole house, was very well-furnished and clean. I wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the homey feeling. Close to a large grocery for supplies, and away from the city center, so quiet and peaceful at night.Mary2016-08-19T00:00:00Z
Sweet and fully equipped country house. We loved the fireplace and the corner sofa. We had a very helpful communication with the owner before we arrived at the house. It is located in a 3' car ride from Karpenissi center. It has a lovely mountain view. Maria had already warmed up the place before our arrival!Niovi2015-12-14T00:00:00Z

Spyrosand his parents were so kind ,nice and always ready for help. We were living at the 4th floor in a very clean room with kitchen and a big balcony. His parents prepared a welcoming water, bread and juice. They helped us contacted Spyros and his friend. Spyros was not in Zakyntjos at that time. But he kept contacting with us every day. Actually, it was a very nice stay at Spyros's house.If you will rent a car, from here you can get to everywhere you want. Btw, the house is very close to the port and supermarket. We loved his house,his family and his island, rather than Santorini. Thank you Spyros. We will recommend everyone of our friends to your house.Ji2016-04-02T00:00:00Z
Spyros's apartment is a wonderfull place to enjoy your vacations in Zakhyntos. It has a big terrace with views of port. Spyros helped me to organize the trip with indications of beaches, boats, (URL HIDDEN) easy comunication with him. I recomended Spyros's apartment if you will travel to Zakhyntos.Daniel2014-06-05T00:00:00Z
Have been in Europe now for almost 30 days and have stayed at numerous Airbnbs throughout , Spyros and his family have by far been the most welcoming and best hosts you could ask for . I never got to meet Spyros but his mother greeted us when we arrived and Spyros sent us all the information we would need on restaurants, supermarkets, day trips, and more according to what we told him we wanted to do. The apartment was very nice and the view outside was great, I really don't think the pictures do it justice. It is right by the port so most of the tours for the island leave from there which was perfect ! His brother even offered to take me and my friend to Athens because he was going the same time. I would highly recommend this place, it was great.Brooke2015-06-10T00:00:00Z

Spyros and his family were amazing during our stay in Zakynthos. The apartment is very nice and although Spyros was not there during our stay, his parents and his brother were so hospitable. He also was really helpful in guiding us to and from Athens, sending useful info and links via email. Highly recommend.Alexis2014-09-05T00:00:00Z

Homemade products made our breakfast very well worth it! Bed was very confortable. Thanks again Dionysia!!Diego2014-10-27T00:00:00Z
Our holiday was brilliant. My partner and I are expecting our first child so we were looking for a holiday which would be very relaxing and that's what we got. Dionysia's kindly picked us up from the airport, her apartment was very nice and the garden where she grows lots of flowers is really beautiful. Kafelonia is a lovely island and we would recommend hiring a car for at least a few days so that you can visit other beaches and other interesting areas, we drove to the top of mount Ainios and the views were incredible. Dionysia is a very generous and caring host and we would recommend trying her delicious home cooked food all of which is grown in her gardens. We ate an evening meal and it was one of the tastiest of our holiday. All in all we had a great time Thank Dionysia Phil & AnhPhillip2015-06-27T00:00:00Z
very easy access to the great location of Katelios, Dionysia welcomes you really warmly with many kind attentions, in her peaceful beautiful home. Her magic dinner with all the homegrown products from her garden is a must!Emmanuel2017-03-08T00:00:00Z
We spent a week with Dionysia in her beautiful home. She picked us up from the airport and we were immediately greeted with a lot of love, hugs and food.

Dionysia is a very warm caring host who loves her country and wants her guests to see and 'feel' all it has to offer. She puts her heart and soul into providing the best possible experience at her home. The grounds are beautiful. The apartments spotlessly clean. In a good location. A nice walk to the beach (where sun beds are provided free by most bars and restaurants) and a good selection of restaurants, fresh fish plentiful and lots of local specialities. Will not hesitate to recommendangela2016-09-25T00:00:00Z
Just returned from a week in paradise and yes it was perfect....our room was lovely and kept very clean every day. Each day a little gift was left outside our room, coffee and fresh fruit....the grapes were so sweet. Our host was brilliant and allowed us to use her bathroom as weren't leaving until late afternoon. I have never slept so well, the location was so quiet and relaxing. I will definitely be back......Dawn2014-09-16T00:00:00Z

The accommodation is perfect. Really clean and peaceful and lots of flowers. Breakfast is really nice too. She picked lots of vegetables and fruits from her garden, milk and chees from her goat, lovely coffe. I highly recommend this place. Thank you Dionysia!Roku2016-09-04T00:00:00Z

One of the best holidays, I've ever had. Top location, very close to the sea (you can jump in the sea from your balcony:) ) restaurants, shops and bars and FANTASTIC sea view. Exceptional hospitality and every-day cleaning. My top recomendations, especially if you search nice and quiet place for your holiday. We feel refreshment of mind and body and definetely want to visit Keri Beach one more time. Thank you, Olympia.Dmitry2015-07-10T00:00:00Z
We had such an amazing stay here with Olympia at the seaside apartments. The photos show how amazing they are and how spectacular the views are but they are surpassed when viewed in person. I would only recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to Zakinthos, limni kerou is breath taking and starting your day in one of these magic apartments is a waking dream. Each room has a balcony with an enchanting seaview and view of turtle island across the water. The sitcom in the apartments are excellent and I cannot imagine our trip to Greece being as memorable or lovely without having stayed as a guest of Olympiad at the seaside apartments. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be coming back to stay again. A wonderful apartment run and kept by a wonderful woman. A thousand thank you's for making my first time in Greece, and our trip so welcoming and memorable.Kellie2016-04-30T00:00:00Z
My husband and I couldn't be happier about our stay at Seaside. We were greeted with smiles and hugs from Olympia upon our arrival. The room was perfect! The location right above the hustle and bustle of the village with a view that is stunning and the accommodations had everything we needed. The local village was a wonderful place to spend a few days. We met some wonderful people during our stay, the places to eat were little gems along the coastline, we rented a boat to visit the many beautiful beaches, caves and turtle island, swam in the bluest water, strolled through the village. Our only regret is only staying for 2 days. We definitely want to come back.Amy2015-10-06T00:00:00Z
This place is the best. The host was very personable and helpful. The view and location are amazing. Apartment was clean and comfortable. We met a very nice family there and hated to leave that wonderful island.Timothy2015-06-22T00:00:00Z
The apartment has a value for the wonderful view of the sea and the turtle island! The room is cleaned and arranged every day, it's fantastic! Only relax for us! Olympia is delicious! A woman available, approachable and always ready to give us information on places to visit and to give us a good morning every morning! Unfortunately we have not met Dennis, but we have been in internet contact with him and was attentive and helpful to solve all our problems before we arrived and during the stay. Thaks a lot Olympia e Dennis!Clementina2016-09-01T00:00:00Z
We had the most wonderful 5 nights stay here at seaside apartments! We were warmly greeted by Olympia on our arrival and she really made our stay so special! Nothing was too much trouble and she kindly recommended so many amazing places to visit on the island. The apartment was perfect - it was extremely clean and tidy with beautiful sea views. We both highly recommend seaside apartments and want to go back to see Olympia ! Many thanks again.Lucy2016-07-04T00:00:00Z

My girlfriend and I visited Zakynthos for a week in July and our stay at the Seaside Apartments in Limni Keriou couldn't have been better. Olympia was so warm and friendly and made us feel at home, giving us loads of tips on what to do and where to go. The studio apartment itself was exactly what we had hoped for - spacious, clean, and comfortable. The balcony looked right out onto the beach and the local pier in Limni Keriou, so you woke up to a nice view every morning. The apartment is meters from the beach and plenty of local restaurants, all very cheap and with great local food. If you are looking for a relaxing location in Zakynthos, then I would high suggest booking these apartments. My girlfriend and I had a lovely time; we will definitely be back!Conor2014-07-18T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at Angelo's place. He made us feel very special. He is a stunning host with attention to small details. The place was clean and with a stunning view to the ocean. The apartment had small accessories which made our stay even more comfortable. The neighborhood, the garden, the BBQ was all very nice, which you cannot really get in any hotels or "commercial" apartment. For the adventurous there is a hidden "mini" beach which you can approach through the garden and a small stair. Its your own private beach. Its covered with rocks and trees but personally i adored it. Thank You Angelo for your warm welcome and for the lovely stay. Zakyntos is a great place, with beautiful beaches and very-very clean water. Its in the top. Hope to see you again. :) Best wishes, Vencel and EmeseVencel2015-06-24T00:00:00Z
Angelo made us feel very welcome. He was very helpful in coordinating directions and we enjoyed his company. The place is an ideal spot of beauty and relaxation.Tyler2014-08-19T00:00:00Z
We were very excited about this appartments .Angelo provided the pick up us from the airport to the house and help us with order a taxi - if you need. The place is quiet and close to the Tsilivi also to the Zakinthos city (45 min walking). Simply amazing place with great view. The appartments was very nice and clean. The absolutely number one surprise is the fact that there is private beach under the house. Angelo is very friendly and helpful. Also be sure, it's much more nicer than on the photos and you will get the same room. Never go to some hotel on holiday.... If we want to go Zakinthos and Tsilivi again, we want to go there again. Will reccomend for everyone... Thank you :-)David2014-09-12T00:00:00Z
The garden is amazing:beautiful plants and trees and a breathtaking view of the ionian sea.lots of cosy seats and dining areas. Location is just perfect, away from the tourist husttle but still close to shops, bars and restaurants. Only noise you hear are birds and the waves. Room has everything you need and Angelo and his family are great hosts. Highly recommended!Lennart2015-11-02T00:00:00Z
Sterre of the sea, exactly as in the photos, and even more beautiful 'in real life', this accommodation and location are an absolute gem! The views are breathtaking. Angelo and his family live on site and we were privileged enough to get to know them - wonderful people! Angelo has to be one of the best hosts ever and nothing is too much trouble - we were kindly offered his own apartment when our intended one had to undergo repairs and what a wonderful apartment! We wanted for nothing. If you are travelling by car it's impossible to find but Angelo is easily available on the end of a phone and will come out to meet you on his bike to direct you - easy peasy! Best place to meet is in the nearby Akrotiri taverna car park (happens to be a really good restaurant but you would need transport to get there as it's a bit dicey walking on the busy road with all the cars and quad bikes whizzing past and no pavement!). Tsilivi beach is 2 mins away by car and is vast - you can find enough sun loungers/parasols if you prefer to pay for this privilege or you can find your own area of beach to set up your towels for free! We cannot recommend this listing highly enough and it's great value.Isabel2016-07-24T00:00:00Z
Quiet, simple and with a wonderful view!!!Enrico2014-08-27T00:00:00Z
We loved our stay at Angelo's. We went there for our honeymoon of 8 days. It was perfect, the weather was good, the views are spectacular and it was very relaxing. We drove around the island and discovered some nice beaches. (Marathias was our favourite, we were the only ones there!) I liked that the island was still quiet, not a lot of tourism. At Angelo's you can easily hangout all day in the nice chairs and views, if your getting hot you can walk down for a swim. I would definitely recommend this place!Loïs2015-05-12T00:00:00Z
Angelo was the best host we could have possibly imagined. He went above and beyond time and time again. He picked us up when we arrived in Zante, drove us to the hospital when one os us (me) got food poisoning (from a dodgy restaurant in the town). We couldn't have asked for more! Rent this place. It is so beautiful, nicer than the pictures.Philip2016-06-08T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Villa Eora was fabulous! Costas is the sweetest, most helpful host. He made us feel so welcome and helped us with some transportation needs and restaurant recommendations. The view is also hard to beat. It's quiet and removed from the crowds around the beach, yet you still can enjoy the view of the sea from the pool or your balcony. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone!Rachel2015-09-10T00:00:00Z
Villa Eora is in a lovely and peaceful part of Zakynthos, above Limni Keriou. The rooms are very comfortable and cool in the heat and have a beautiful outlook over the bay. We very much enjoyed cycling around the locality (on Costas' bicycles), visiting neighbouring beaches and tavernas, and we would recommend you hire a boat and explore the coastline and visit Turtle Island (Marathonisi) to swim from the beach. Our host Costas was warm, welcoming and genuinely friendly. He was always available and met every request speedily. No problem was too much, even rescuing us from a countryside bicycle puncture. His villa is a stunning position and the pool is perfect. Guests need strong muscles (or powered transport) to return up the hill home after dinner! We look forward to returning soon.Ellon2015-06-10T00:00:00Z
Wonderful stay! Most amazing view! Very friendly host, Costos, helped us plan things to do and made us feel right at home. The only problem we had was not being able to stay longer. Would recommend to everyone.Sarah2016-09-29T00:00:00Z
The Villa is set in beautiful surroundings with local amenities and the beach only a short walk away. The room was very clean and opened out to excellent views and the swimming pool. Marie & Costas could not be more hospitable hosts, they made us feel very welcome and helped us with any queries we had. They are a lovely couple and both myself and my girlfriend Terra happily recommend the property to anyone lucky enough to stay here. Thanks again them to anyone who of thinkSam2014-04-29T00:00:00Z
Villa Eora is a pearl of the Keri village. Our perfect experience in Zakynthos wouldn't have been the same without a passage there. Besides the calm atmosphere and a swimming pool with wonderful view, the human experience was also great. Costas and Marie are amongst the best hosts we've ever had: super helpful and always available to meet their guests' needs. I warmly recommend Villa Eora.Bianca2015-07-18T00:00:00Z

Thanks to Marie and Costas, I and my mom spent precious time in Zakynthos. We stayed there for 5 days. Thanks to Marie's help, we could book the tour and get much information. One of the days, we stayed all day in the villa, listening to music and swimming while viewing the spectacular ocean view from the sunbed. Every morning, we could see sunrising over the see and mountains. Villa eora is really quiet and cozy place. To anyone who wants to be relaxed and relieve stress from busy life, i definitely would recommend Villa eora. Thank you so much Marie!Eunji2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

Lovely setting up in the hills above Aigion. Peaceful and great balance tp two days in hotel just off the beach which was much louder. It is 15 mins from market in bigger town etc. but no need for this with delicious meals that are prepared on request. Great views and feel for pace of village life. We would return!Stacy2016-07-25T00:00:00Z
Although Dimitris was tied up with family business he left us information and a key so we could get access to the Inn.

The place far exceeded our expectations. Unique, clean, open space that's situated right above a cafe against beautiful hills. It's certainly a trek getting to the place as its a long, winding drive up the mountain. But the views and perspective on the city are worthwhile. Mado is also great--we got in later than we'd originally said and she was super flexible and waited for us at the place. Thanks, Mado!Jenna2015-09-13T00:00:00Z
A lovely apartment with an amazing view. Was really worth staying one night here. The restaurant beneath the apartment was really good and worth a try!! I definitely recommend this apartment.Shaun2016-08-24T00:00:00Z
The village and the apartment are both beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay, only wishing that it could have been longer. Unfortunately we couldn't get in touch with Mado before our arrival (probably due in part to some technology issues on our side) and we were a bit concerned about finding it. However, upon parking in the centre of Ano Kastritsi we walked into the closest cafe to ask and were immediately pointed in the right direction. Everyone was really friendly and helpful and, although the apartment wasn't ready for us, we had a lovely dinner downstairs and a tea with Mado while it was put in order. The views are spectacular and there's just a great atmosphere in the place. It was definitely a highlight of our trip.Charlotte2016-04-25T00:00:00Z

The view from the door is spectacular, get there before sunset. Go the the University of Patras and take the road up to the village from there-it's easy to find. The facilities are all newly renovated, the tub was awesome, and the room was clean and spacious. Mado was very easy to contact and was accessible during our stay...right next door! The village taverna was delicious and the coffee cafe made yummy coffees for our early morning departure. As usual, a wonderfully folksy Greek Airbnb experience!Jane2015-09-01T00:00:00Z
Mado and her family ensured that we had a great experience! Even though we arrived after midnight, Mado welcomed us and was eager to show us around. With her grandmother living next door, our days were enriched with local traditional products. Our 15 minute curvy drive up the mountains was rewarded by splendid views and crystal clear spring water!Ruya2016-09-05T00:00:00Z
Mado's home is beautiful, modern and very cosy. It's near Patras, the road up to the village is not easy, but the apartment worth it :) Views from the terrace are incredible and stunning. The staff of the restaurant below our apartment don't speak English, but we found people who helped us :) The food was delicious and really perfect. Mado is very friendly and helpful, she made our stay as pleasant as possible. So when we saw her and the apartment, we decided to spend there one more night! Wireless Internet was available from the cafe below our apartment only after 15.00, cause it's closed till 15.00. But it's ok, cause we weren't at home and were travelling around the city.

Best stay ever. The host picked us up at the port and left us at the airport. He helped us to rent a car, and gave many tips on how to explore better the island. The room was perfect, everything as described, and on top of that we had a great view from our balcony. It was a pleasure to stay in Zakinthos with them, I would definitely come back and stay there without thinking twice.Matteo2016-06-28T00:00:00Z
This was a fantastic stay. The apartment was as advertised, with a balcony and a lovely view of the sunrise. Argassi is a great beach town with easy access to the rest of the island (rent a scooter!). But more importantly, Panagiotis and his brother were outstanding hosts. They picked me up from the airport when I arrived and were very helpful with recommendations around town. They also brought me back to the airport for my originally scheduled departure flight. When that flight ended up being cancelled, within fifteen minutes they were back at the airport to pick me up again. They generously and without hesitation extended my stay by two additional nights, saving me a massive headache. Zakynthos is an amazing place in its own right, but I hope to return solely so I can stay with these amazing people again. They made sure my trip to their island was perfect even in the face of complications. I am very grateful.Dylan2016-09-02T00:00:00Z
Though it was already november, the stay in Panagiotis place was great. He made sure that I had everything alright, and took me to different places to get to know the island. His family was very welcoming and nice :)Atte2016-11-05T00:00:00Z
I would recommend this apartment if you wanna spend a few days on a greek island. Panagiotis, his family and the neighbours are all very helpful and welcoming! Room is clean as well as the bathroom and the view from the balcony is wonderful. I had a wonderful stay!Martin2013-06-25T00:00:00Z
Panagiotis and his family were really kind souls who went out of their way to make us feel at home in their home. We would recommend this apartment to anyone!Felix2015-09-19T00:00:00Z
I had a great stay at Olive Tree Apartments. I was picked up at the airport by Panagiotis' brother and within 15 minutes admiring the view from the balcony. The room is clean and spacious and within walking distance of all the restaurants, bars, shops and beach. The first day I did the boat trip all around the coast: fantastic, swimming in the bluest sea ever!!! and then return to the very friendly family, nice shower and bed. I definitely recommend this location. Thanks very much, also for driving me to my next stop on this beautiful island!Daphne2013-08-30T00:00:00Z
Best Airbnb hosts we've ever had! The hospitality we received at The Olive Tree was amazing. Every need was catered to and every question was helpfully answered. Not to mention the view and location was incredible! The welcoming and accepting nature given from them and their family was so lovely allowing us to experience the local Greek way of life and their relaxing attitude. Not only were they our very accommodating hosts but they also became great friends. We would 200% recommend a stay at these apartments! Much love, Dean & MaryMary2016-09-14T00:00:00Z

Paul and I wanted a week to relax and unwind. After the stresses of our working weeks we were both exhausted and ready to leave London behind. From the moment we stepped off the plane we felt at home. Being on the first easyjet flight into Kefalonia we were welcomed by local ladies in traditional dress and offering fresh kefalonian products like cheese, olives sweet almonds and rebola wine. Dionysia was waiting for us as prearranged to take us back to her home in Katelios - on route she showed us some beautiful views and we were privileged to be shown a traditional Greek home and sipped coffee on the balcony looking out to the amazing blue green sea below. Such a warm and friendly host and nothing was too much effort throughout our whole week. Suggesting things to do and sharing the fruits of her beautiful garden. Each day we were treated to a delicious experience of breakfast, herb teas freshly picked from the garden, homemade rice puddings, jams and bread. She even baked us a cake for Easter Sunday and took us to a festival for locals to eat, drink and dance together. This time of year, the town of Katelios is just preparing for the tourist season so there wasn't much open and it was a shame we didn't get to eat in any of the taverners on the beach front. Instead we sampled many traditional kefalonia dishes and homemade liqueurs that Dionysia lovingly prepared for us. It really was a wonderful experience. We take the point about hiring a car, something we'd consider for next time but despite not much going on we were very content to walk the local areas of Katelios, Skala and Mavrata. Dionysia also offered to be our guide and take us to see the rest of the island definately worth doing this as she knows her island inside our and you'll see a greece out of reach to most tourists. The pictures of this place really don't do it justice and everything is as described and more besides. The apartment was very comfortable with everything you need to be self catered if you wish. The nearest shop is just a short walk down the road. One of the greatest charms is the fully equipped (URL HIDDEN) the garden! Whether having breakfast, lunch or drinks the views are wonderful sitting between sea, lushush gardens and the mountains - listening to the sounds of the river and wildlife. We know we now have to return to Kefalonia to see the rest of the island and would definately consider renting a place in paradise once more! Thank you Dionysia, we l(PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN)e you!Laura2015-04-07T00:00:00Z
We were welcomed with open arms at this bewitching home. Dionysia is such a wonderful host who left treats in the fridge every day, and plied us with goods from her garden - olives, home made jam and so on. It was the perfect place to spend a week, explore the island and know there was a comfortable, welcoming home to return to at the end of each day.Richard 2014-09-28T00:00:00Z
Stayed for 12 days late July /early Aug. Eleni was very patient with my queries. It was all we could dream for and more. Especially greek hospitality. Eleni had already arranged for her mum Dionysia to organise a birthday cake for my daughter, which was lovely chocolate from the bread house with sparklers and candles. She did more taking Angelica for a scooter ride and coming back from katelios sea front with a new dress! In addition she kindly put some cut flowers and a bottle of wine wrapped up with a ribbon in our apartment for our wedding anniversary. Lots of times little treats like fresh passion fruit left on our veranda. Made to feel part of the extended family Angelica playing with nephew Stefanos and having home made fresh orange ice lollies and homemade greek style chips with herbs. Accomodation We had a lovely 1 bedroom apartment ( second bed in open plan kitchen area) in the delightful flower filled garden overlooking the hill watching buzzards in the sky and listening to the crickets, with additional luxury of a hammock under the shade of willow trees. Those extras like a clothes hanger & pegs to aid hand washing, quickly drying on the veranda. A bbq out house where Eleni's day Stefanos helped me with an eco bbq using local wood, cooking swordfish I bought from Argostoli fish market. (lovely place to visit to see local pets of sea turtles in the harbour) Dionysia is so hard working regularly cleaning the apartment. Nice having other greek and european guests to share the surroundings with, but still secluded. Why choose Katelios It is peaceful and laid back village, not even an atm (skala 10mins away). Close to Kaminia beach - lovely expanse of sand, not busy reachable by car 5 mins away, really shallow, turquoise clear warm sea. A canteen in flower setting or take picnic on the rocks. Koroni beach for sunsets although car hire may restrict on unpaved roads so a long walk. Sea breeze boats to go for a day trip with your own small speed boat discovering coast line to Poros - plus sighting turtle Great bakery - Bread House, lovely doughnuts and special greek style pasties of feta cheese and peppers. A mini market for beach accessories and breakfast groceries. Wonderful restaurants - marias for swordfish kefalonia style - katelios taverna / blu sea - medusa - for greek food like moussaka, lamb kleftiko - house wine robola made in kefalonia. Alexis cocktail bar -family friendly making a hand picked mix of fruit non alcoholic for daughter and moijtos with organic mint and local limes for the adults Souvenirs - Stella - cottage industry modern style olive oil soap and wonderful designs of candles - Skala sirius jewellery- silver aquamarine ring. Venus car rentals for modern hyundai car Day trips to Myrtos beach with big blue waves, wonderful views to Assos. Or inland to San Gerassimo monastery and vineyards. Thank you for an unforgettable trip.Helen2013-08-06T00:00:00Z
Our stay in Katelios was wonderful! Although we could only spend one night, we felt really at home. Eleni's mother, Dionysia, gave us the most warm welcome with a cold drink and fresh fruit from the garden. The place is truly beautiful, with stunning views and the apartment is nice, clean and pretty. The views, warm welcome, candles and fresh flowers, combined with fresh orange juice makes it truly a place in paradise. We would really recommend staying here! We were on Kefalonia in October, with still very beautiful weather (24C). We were among the last tourists on the island, which made us feel like we were the only one. If you like tranquility and peacefulness, visit the island early or late in the season!Rosanne2013-10-26T00:00:00Z
the welcome by Dionysia was very warmly, we got something to drink and she cooked a lovely meal for us. Dionysia makes you really feel very welcome.Maja 2016-04-12T00:00:00Z
Dionysia is really a what anyone would call a great woman. Her home is just a perfect place in Paradise. She receives you with a bottle of home made red wine, fruits and flowers form her garden, which are just amazing! You can also ask her to prepare you a typical greek breakfast o dinner for the third of the price you would find anywhere else!!Martin2015-05-01T00:00:00Z
What a lovely welcome for our first time in Kefalonia. Eleni and her mother were so kind and showered us with fruit, flowers and even traditional meat pie during our 12 day stay. The apartment was clean and comfortable and the air conditioning was such a relief for the August heat and humidity. The gardens were absolutely beautiful and full of colour. We managed to get some great photographs of swallow winged butterflies and the odd lizard. The view from the apartment looked across at the mountains and we spent many an hour spotting the bird of prey Eleonora's Falcon. We also went to the adjoining bay at dawn to try and see the baby loggerhead turtles emerging from the sand to make their journey to the sea. We missed them but saw their tracks! The hammock was an absolute (URL HIDDEN) relaxing. Kefalonia is a truly beautiful island and the people as so friendly. Katelios is a great resort as it's quite with just a handful of tavernas. 4 tips though: only go in August if you can cope with 40 degrees + and high humidity otherwise visit in June or September, wear something on your feet to get across the stony beach or go to the next bay which has miles of sand, hire a car with a bit of oomph if you want to explore as the Hyundai Getz we had was pitiful and follow these directions to get to the apartment.... we struggled with maps and directions given so on the approach into the resort, at the junction with a road to Ano Katelios and where the Greek flag flies over a memorial to a firefighter, you will see the Stefanios Apartments. That is Paradise!Heather2013-08-28T00:00:00Z

Our stay with David and Karen was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, we felt so incredibly relaxed that we didn't leave for the next two days! We ate dinner cooked by David three nights in a row under the stars and it was amazing. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The staff were completely charming. It really was a perfect bolt hole for a couple of days of complete relaxation- we will be back!Ruth2016-09-22T00:00:00Z
It was an AMAZING stay :) David and Karen are truly the nicest host that you can imagine :) Donkey Bay Club in reality is even more beautiful and cosy that on the photos. If you want to have a perfect sunrise view from you balcony and eat tasty breakfast with the seaside view it's definitely your destination. One of the nicest memories from the whole stay is an excelent home made dinner by David that you can eat while watching the sunset. The place, hospitality and greek attitude to life that you can find there is a must see! Overall, stay at Donkey Bay Club exceeded our most optimistic expextations by a ten raised to a power :) P.S. David, please send kindest regards from us to Jorgos the Pop :)Katarzyna2015-06-20T00:00:00Z
Although the house is a little bit away from town, while it's worth for everyone to stay for a relaxing holiday. David and his wife are so nice, all the things were well prepared for us, they seems like our Greek father & mum, we love them so much!!!! The house is so beautiful , and you can just walk to the beach within 2 minutes, or you can relax yourself in the house. Although we have only 2 days in Zakynthos, David arranged very well so that we can have nice experience here. Thanks so much to them!!! I will come back again!!! Make promise to you!!!Pauline2016-06-12T00:00:00Z
What a nice stay! It was so relaxing. The view is amazing. We were ten days in Zakinthos and never ate better than here! Room is small, but cosy and super clean. Astrid & PieterAstrid2016-07-23T00:00:00Z
If IDE had to describe it in one word then I would Choose P-E-R-F-E-C-T. From the amazing rooms, beautiful view and delicious food Donkey Bay Hotel is the place to be. More then all the above mentioned the hosts David & Karin (the kindest and nicest hosts I've ever been with) will show you places on the island which only locals know of. So if your looking for a place in Zakynthos don't think twice :) you wont regret it !Tomer2014-10-02T00:00:00Z
Donkey Bay Club is beautiful. With views of the crystal clear waters lower down the hill, this is definitely a place for rest and relaxation. Our welcome from David, the staff and the other guests was very warm. Donkey bay has a relaxed and homely feel. Although the room was small, it was represented well by the photos, and with drinks and snacks on offer from the kitchen, we had everything we needed, and the room was kept clean by the maid daily. Wifi wasn't great in the room but was fine by the pool. David was very helpful with questions whilst we tried to plan our days for boat trips or visiting the town. On the first few nights, we went to the nearest town Tsilivi for dinner, a walk away from Donkey Bay. The food and ambiance there was lacking so on the fourth night we had dinner at Donkey Bay. Following the reviews i'd read and input from other guests, I had high expectations for David's cooking and it did not disappoint! Having a strict vegan diet, I was unsure I would get anything that spectacular, but the starter in particular was divine and resembled something you might see on Masterchef. The final nigh we took a taxi ride to Zante Town where I would definitely suggest going over Tsilivi but still lacked the charm of other other places I have visited. Donkey Bay allowed us a peaceful, restful and friendly holiday, with top class food and a beautiful beach minutes away.Rowena2016-09-18T00:00:00Z
My time at Donkey Bay, with David and his lovely wife Karin was a wonderful experience. I truly felt like part of the family. Each night I ate with David, Karin and the other guests - the food was superb. We always had a good laugh. The room was exactly as pictured, comfortable and clean; each day it was cleaned and left as it was when I first arrived. This is where you want to relax and rest your head when it is that you are not enjoying the beautiful island of Zakynthos.simon2016-06-26T00:00:00Z

My Last Breath
By: Fae Elric, the Steel Alchemist
Disclaimer: If I owned Fullmetal Alchemist, it would be a huge RoyEd blowout bonanza. But it's not, ergo, I don't own it. Funny how these things work.
It doesn't really hurt, you know. Getting stabbed. It only looks like it does. It's just a little uncomfortable. I must be insane for thinking that at a time like this.
Envy pulls his blade out of my chest, causing me to fall to the floor. I hear you yell, hear the snap, and smell burning flesh not much after that.
And as I lay there on the cold tile I can't help but wonder exactly how much time I have left?
Hold on to me, love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?
And suddenly there you are, at my side in an instant. I can feel you pull me into your arms. How nice they feel. Do you know the only time I ever feel truly safe is when you're holding me like this? You probably feel it, too. You always know everything, bastard colonel.
It's not as easy to draw breath anymore. I'll breathe for as long as I can. I don't want to leave you.
But I'll never have to live a day without you. That in itself would kill me, were I not already dying right in front of you, darling.
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight
I can feel myself getting weaker with every second that passes. You can sense it, too. I know you do.
Your eyes fill with tears. You never cry, not even when you dream of Ishbal and death and battlefields and Hughes's funeral.
Do I really mean that much to you?
I lift my flesh hand to your face as those glistening tears run down your face. I want to brush them away, to tell you that everything will be all right, but I don't even have the strength to do that. I can only lie here as you press my palm to the side of your face.
I hear you beg me to stay with you, to hold on until Al comes with the Philosopher's Stone.
You never beg, either.
And suddenly I realize how much you need me, as much as either of us hates to admit it. We're both so painfully stubborn, aren't we?
I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
I know you hear me
I can taste it in your tears
Taking breath is so terribly hard now. I can hear my ragged attempts, and the tears that stream down your face fall even harder now.
Cold. I feel so cold, even with you holding me as you do.
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight
It's true what they say about your life flashing before your eyes. I recall every minute we've ever spent together, happy or otherwise. Like that time I put salt in your coffee. You weren't as amused as I was, were you? You got me back by giving me milk and telling me it was a new kind of energy drink from Drachma. Even I have to admit that it was funny.
I can remember every kiss, every touch.
I remember every passion-filled night we spent together, and I only regret they hadn't lasted longer.
Does it really have to end this way?
Why can't I stay with you?
If there really is a God, why can't you be merciful like they say you are and let me stay here with him?
Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here
But still you wake and know the truth
No one's there
You turn your head to press your lips to my palm. You shift to press them to my forehead, then once more to my lips for a lingering kiss.
You know that my time is up, don't you?
I draw in what I know is to be my last breath on this earth.
Say goodnight
Don't be afraid
Calling me, calling me as you fade to black
And with my last breath I confess the only thing I wish I had said sooner. I would've liked to hear you say it, too.
"I love you…"
Then… nothing.
A/N: I know, I hate me too. I was feeling rather emo this morning as I listened to Evanescence on the bus to school this morning. Hate mail is totally welcomed for this one, guys. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go flog myself for killing Ed.

non-volatile solutions group Job Reviews
Women who work in non-volatile solutions group departments have an overall job satisfaction level of 5, 100% of them believe there is gender equality in their firms, and make an average salary range of >$150k.
I advanced at a reasonable pace for the first 10 years I worked at the company and was being groomed for further advancement. For family reasons I had to move to a less optimal location, but the groups I worked with were very flexible and found ways to keep me engaged, although advancement slowed due to not being able to take on the most challenging projects remotely. Other women who did not relocate appeared able to continue to advance despite having children. There does seem to be a bit more of a barrier to the top technical positions, however, based on few women technical fellows.
