Good to know before you book.
Anything else, just ask. The owners answer every message themselves.
How many people can stay?
Up to four guests. The villa has two bedrooms, each with a full bed, and two bathrooms.
How much does it cost?
€110 a night from November to May, €140 from 1 June to 20 July, and €160 from 21 July to 30 October. Rates are for the whole villa.
Is there a pool?
Yes. Guests share the pool at Ermolaos Hillside Villas, a few steps from the villa.
How do I book?
Send your dates on WhatsApp or by email. The owners confirm availability directly and take it from there. No third-party platform involved.
How do I get to the villa?
Fly into Kefalonia Airport (EFL). Livadi is just outside Lixouri, which connects to Argostoli by ferry. A taxi in Lixouri is +30 694 544 5646, and the owners will send directions before you arrive.
Do I need a car?
A car is the easiest way to explore the beaches and villages of the Paliki Peninsula. Livadi is about 5 km from Lixouri, and local buses and the ferry give you some options without one.
How long is the ferry to Argostoli?
The Lixouri to Argostoli ferry takes around 20 to 30 minutes and runs often during the travel season, so a day in the island's capital is easy.
Is it quiet?
Very. Livadi is a small village in the countryside of the Paliki Peninsula, away from the busier tourist areas, yet only minutes from Lixouri and the coast.
Is there parking and air conditioning?
Yes to both. There is parking at the villa, plus air conditioning for summer and central heating for the cooler months.
