Stella Hotel Apartments, Kefalonia

Advantages: Quiet, Relaxing, Close to Shops & Beach
Disadvantages: Hilly Landscape

...Have you seen the film? If you have, you would have had to have fallen asleep to notice the beauty of this island! Kefalonia is one of the small Greek islands, offering picturesque scenery, clear blue seas and not to mention peace! One of the hotels on the island is the Princess.

...Pelagos Bay has been the best holiday I have ever had! Billy,Barbara,Yanni,asthper made our holiday! This was not my usual type of holiday but we have booked later in the year Pelagos Bay Hotel is 4km out of Scala centre about 20mins pleasant walk, I suggest a taxi for the return journey! Tip ask the driver before hand how much it should be no more than 5 euro. Book yourself in for the bbq night on thursdays and Sean plays mondays (very good) If you want proper greek kebab ask Billy or Yanni they will order them in for you Breakfast is simple toast coffee cornflakes but what more do you want? The snack bar is excellent! Try the bannana pancake and the greek mezza is good for 2 lunch Everyone speaks very good english and make your stay very pleasent. Air con in every room only works with the patio door shut... Read review
