Located in the small village of Karavomylos, next to the lake with the watermill, just in front of a small pebble beach (30m from the apartment) and within 10min walk there is another organized beach. The apartment has excellent sea view to the bay of Sami and Ithaka and the only thing someone can hear is the sound of the crystal clear waters of the Ionian Sea in the tranquil beach with huge Eucalyptus trees just in front of the apartment. No car is necessary as they are set in walking distance from the popular bay of Sami unless you want to explore the whole island. Perfect for families & couples enjoying nature & seeking tranquility and relaxation in a friendly environment. The site is ideally located for a stay in Kefalonia, since it is at the center of the island. The place is surrounded by small taverns, restaurants, small shops, church and a bakery shop. Karavomylos is about 1.5 km away from the bustling port of Sami with regular ferries connecting to the Greek mainland, Ithaka and Italy. In Sami, one can also find a pharmacy, bank, a small hospital, etc. Karavomylos has traditional taverns (the one in 50m distance). Within walking distance is a bakery near the apartment. Melissani the cave lake is only 500 meters away and Drogarati cave with stalactites & stalagmites is 3.5 km. Next to the apartment are located tennis courts, and a basketball and football court. Kefalonia is the largest and most beautiful island of the Ionian. It is deeply influenced by the people that passed through like the Venetians, French and British. It offers various activities such as extreme water sports, guided tours, day cruises to the rest of the Ionian islands, fishing, snorkeling, horse riding, wine tasting, private boat and yacht rentals, mountain hiking and biking. It has a distinct tradition, cuisine and architecture and lots of hidden secrets. Vast olive groves, mount escapes, iridescent waters, picturesque alleyways and traditional arcades. It surprises you with the scenic beaches, the roman ruins, the stunning caves, the Byzantine churches, the Homeric sites and the Venetian fortresses. Kefalonia is spread with amazingly good tavernas (maybe the best food you have ever eaten in vacation). You can also discover walking trails with running waters inside the mountains, bird watching areas and vineyards with excellent wines. But most importantly Kefalonia will give you a taste of what greek philoxenia (hospitality) is after all. The Capital of Kefalonia is Argostoli at 27km. The famous Myrtos beach is just 20km from the house, the airport 37km and Agia Efimia 6km and Fiskardo seaside village 35km.

The apartment is fine, except that the bathroom is very small. The location has a small minus, in that it is on quite a busy road, but a very large plus, because the lower road, by the shore, is absolutely lovely - quiet, shaded by magnificent eucalyptus trees and with a wonderful view over to Ithaca.
Sami is a very nice port, but Agia Evfimia is also charming and within easy reach of Karavomilos, with some wonderful (pebbly) beaches on the way.
