Large 4 bedroom family villa, fabulous Sea views private pool with Jacuzzi seat

Our Villa Fengaraki is a fabulous villa, ideal for larger families and extended family holidays. The size and layout of the villa is also prefect for wedding parties and events. It is located in the natural Livadi plane only a short stroll from the unspoilt Livadi bay, located in an ideal position for touring the whole of Kefalonia island. We are less than 10 minutes drive from the bustling traditional town of Lixouri, where you will find a large selection of restaurants and shops. Down at the harbour every morning, for those fish lovers you can purchase fresh catches from the local fishermen, great for an evening BBQ. When your feeling lazy the local taverna Paliki is only a couple of minutes stroll away from the villa. The grounds of the property are walled with private parking and the whole villa is equiped with broadband Wifi and internet T.V. The covered veranda offers shade during the hot summer days and the large patio area is ideal for outdoor cooking on the brick built barbecue. The upper patio is great for those who adore basking in the sun, as this is a sun trap almost all day. The pool is kept crystal clear and has a tiled step for easy access. There is also a power jet seating area where you can relax and take in the amazing sea views. The whole property overlooks the Paliki bay and on towards some of the highest mountains on Kefalonia. It's a great family villa. The bay of Livadi is a natural plane which attracts many varieties of birds and wildlife (great for birdwatchers and naturalists). The location of Villa Fengaraki is ideal for visiting many of the areas of Kefalonia island such as Fiscardo, Assos, Agia Efimia and Sami with the caves and lake. The Paliki peninsular is a very traditional area of Kefalonia and is ideal for those looking to capture the old Greek style. You may even be able to still catch a glimpse of the old gentleman riding his donkey into town. In the area there is the fabulous beach of Petani with it's small coves ideal for snorkling, as is the Atheras bay just up the road. Xi beach is perfect for small children with particularly shallow waters. For those easy days try out the four slide water park at Kounopetra to keep the family entertained. There are so many places to visit on this part of the island that you may not even get chance to explore further afield.

Could Not Have Asked For More
We were a late booking August 2023 and were so pleased with the villa and owners attention to any issues and our enjoyment. Great property in a pretty and peaceful location, just a short drive from wonderful Lixouri and beaches. As 5 adults we had plenty of room and 3 out of 4 bedrooms with en-suites was a luxury we hardly expected when searching for the villa. The only minor gripe would be fridge space. The standard fridge freezer was a little restrictive for 5 adults and would be inadequate for more occupants. All the same this in no way detracted from a wonderful holiday and thank Frances and Barry for their hospitality and Ralph the lovely stray dog for his company! Martyn & Shirley

Amazing week in Kefalonia
We had a fantastic week and made great memories. The villa is a good size, nicely furnished, clean and tidy. The pool is great, our kids spent hours in there. They especially loved the blue light at night. The location and views of this villa are stunning. It’s in an Ideal spot to get around the island. We loved hiring a car and using the ferry at Lixouri. Myrtos beach is stunning (taking beach shoes are an absolute must) Frances is a great host. Always on hand to sort any problem or answer any questions. We loved the 3 umbrellas taverna. It’s only a 10 minute walk along the road. The food is amazing and the owners make you feel so welcome. We loved Kefalonia and will be back!

A good experience
We stayed in Aug 23 as a family. Upon arrival I was impressed by the welcome hamper. It was more the usual bottle of wine, bread and milk. As we travelled with teens it was nice to have a half decent TV to for downtime or when it was too hot to go out. The house was clean and well presented. The flowers on each bed was a nice touch. The location was perfect for us. A quiet location with a great view of the lagoon. The local area is not as touristy as other parts of the island but there is a nice taverna about 10 mins walk away. The big plus was the distance to some nice beaches. Less than 15 mins drive you'll find Petani Beach but there a loads of other options very close.

Excellent villa and location
We are two families of 4 with kids from 3-6. We stayed 2 weeks at Villa Fengaraki and had a fabulous time. The villa has everything you need in it, the rooms are spacious (smallest bedroom is the twin on the ground floor) and the beds are very comfortable. Air con in the bedrooms. The pool is fantastic and just the right size for younger kids. Plenty of sun loungers and eating outside was fab. We did have a few issues with electricity fuses etc but Frances was extremely quick to respond and told us how to fix it. Lovely welcome package on arrival and plenty of towels and sheets. The location is good for exploring the island and the beaches which are beautiful and great for kids (XI, Mega Lakos and our favourite Atheros) all within 20 mins drive. There is the 3 Unbrellas close by and plenty of places to eat and supermarkets etc in Lixouri. We had a wonderful holiday and would not hesitate to recommend this villa to our friends and family. My only request...more pegs for the washing line!!

Lovely stay
6 of us stayed here for a very enjoyable week. The villa was spotless and well equipped. Communication with the owner was excellent and they were very accommodating about our request for early check in. Car essential to explore the area - lots of lovely beaches and tavernas locally . I would recommend the ferry rather than the longer drive from the airport . It may have been my driving but it took us an hour, and the ferry is enjoyable and relaxing .

Lovely Villa - Great For Families
Very clean and spacious villa in quiet surroundings just 10 mins drive from Lixouri. Well maintained including the pool and fresh linen changed midweek. Local, friendly, family run tavern is 10 mins walk away with excellent fresh food. Lovely welcome package supplied on pre-arrival. We were a family of 3 couples plus an adult daughter and we all loved it and would highly recommend this property :0)

Amazing views and good location
We had a lovely time here! Everything was very easy to complete from booking the villa to accessing the directions were easy to follow to locate the villa, The villa is very clean and the linen was changed twice over our 12 day stay. You will need a car to get around. The xi beach is a lovely sandy beach not too far away. The restaurant down the road is very welcoming. There are numerous places to see we visited argostoli, the messini cave, skala to name a few! This is a beautiful island which has not been commercialised. The owner of the villa is very helpful when we had a few queries.

Lovely property with beautifull pool.
Loved our stay here for one week. The villa has everything you will need. There was a delicious food pack waiting for us when we arrived including wine. We received a bottle of bubbly also as we were celebrating our wedding anniversary. You will need a car to go around the island. Lixouri is around 10 minutes away by car. Plenty of good restauraunts there and shops and supermarket. None within walking distant. We had 3 teenage sons with us and they loved the clear blue pool that was maintained throughout our holiday. In July the water was lovely and warm! I enjoyd the small jacuzi tub. Really relaxing on a hot day and warm evening. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was a necessity in July. It was a shame there was none for the living area. Would highly recommend for a family get together. Thankyou.
