Location
About the surrounding area of Villa Paliki SunsetVilla Paliki Sunset is located on the stunning island of Kefalonia in the peninsula of Paliki, not far from the historic hilltop village of Chavriata. The property is situated on a 20-acre plot of land in a private and secluded area with unobstructed beautiful sea views, a great place if you are looking for some peace and quiet. There are restaurants, cafes, bars and supermarkets available within a short drive.
One of the closest beaches to the villa is Lagadakia beach; this is a small and secluded beach with white pebbles and clear water. It is a great spot if you are looking for somewhere quiet away from the main tourist sites or if you fancy a bit of scuba diving or snorkelling. If you are looking for somewhere more bustly then head to Xi beach, this long beach is known for its dramatic white rocky cliff backdrop and its red sand. The water here is clear and shallow ideal for swimming and for the little ones to splash about in. The on-site facilities include a variety of bars, restaurants and watersports.
.
Lixouri is the main town on the Paliki peninsula and can be reached in under 20 minutes by car. Here you will find plenty of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and bars. This charming town's main attractions include Iakovatios Library and museum, the Philharmonic School, Agios Charalambos church and the statue of the poet Andreas Laskaratos. Don't forget to take a stroll to the port and pause in the main town square for some lunch and to watch the world go by.
The Monastery of Kipoureon is located at an 18-minute drive from the villa and is well worth a visit. This 17th-century monastery constructed on a cliff edge 90 metres above sea level offers magnificent views of the coastline and sea. The monastery is home to several important religious artefacts, and the gardens are a nice place to take a stroll. The yard is a great spot to stop and watch the sunset over the Ionian Sea, a sight you won't want to miss.

Getting There
How to reach Kefalonia island
There are two ways to get to Kefalonia island: either by flight or by ferry.
By plane: During the busy months, the airport of Kefalonia (EFL) receives a great number of domestic but also charter flights. The airport is located 7 km outside Argostoli, the capital of the island.
By ferry: Kefalonia has three ports: Sami (SMI), Argostoli (ARM), and Poros (PKE). If you want to arrive in Sami you should depart from Patra (GRA). In case you want to arrive to Poros or Argostoli you can depart from Killini (KIL). The trips last from 1.5 to 3 hours. You can easily book your ferry tickets using the link below or the booking engine.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Paliki Sunset is a fantastic and spacious property for a large family to go away together and it offers plenty of great extra features the kids are definitely going to enjoy. Indoors there is a pool table and a selection of board games, great for a bit of fun competition on those days you just want to stay in and relax. The kids will also have fun exploring the views from all the different balconies. The outdoor space is guaranteed to be the kids favourite with a spacious garden to run around in and a large private swimming pool to splash about in. There is also a table tennis table, a children playground with a swing and slide set and a built-in platform in one of the trees for the kids to explore.
The villa comes with bicycles for adults and children, great if you want to head out for the day or if the little ones simply want to cycle and race within the property grounds. For the older kids, there is the opportunity to go horse riding or, for an even more energetic activity, there are kayaks available in the villa.
Even though the access to the sea is only 50 metres away, it isn't ideal for children as it is a very rocky area. Instead, why not head to Xi beach with its long sandy shore which is great for playing on and its clear shallow waters that are suitable for the little ones to splash about in.
If you want to have a fun family day out then there is a small water park located at about a 20-minute drive from the villa, it is part of the Ionian Sea Hotel but day visitors are welcome. Here you will find five water slides, swimming pools including one for children, a snack bar, umbrellas and sunbeds.

Kat‘s a perfect host - try’s to make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as it could be - nothing to complain at all - we‘ll surely come back ! Remarkable place - if you could go there: do it ! One of the best - if not the best - places we‘ve ever been on holidays...

Excellent
Excellent view, lots of activities within the property, fantastic pool, fantastically equipped kitchen, spacious, added interest of being able to visit the farm and horses. Particularly enjoyed the property being off the beaten track.

Wonderful, perfect, the best!
Everything was amazing! The house, the location, the pool, the host!! Such beautiful house with a stunning location. The house was absolutely perfect for our hen party, it was exactly what we wanted, great house with plenty of space around us so we could make noise without disturbing the neighbours! The owner was wonderful, she was always there to help us when we needed but left us to it for the most of the trip. She even took us to see a beautiful beach on the last day and took us to a lovely restaurant so we could eat authentic Greek food. Could not have asked for a better host!!
Perfect, perfect, perfect!!!
