Villa with Private Pool & Sea Views – Peaceful Retreat in Kefalonia - Sleeps 5
Welcome to Villa Vounaki – your private retreat in the heart of Kefalonia.
Nestled on a secluded 2,000 m² estate at the edge of the traditional village of Makriotika, Villa Vounaki offers peace, privacy, and panoramic views of the lush Pylaros valley, the shimmering Ionian Sea, and the surrounding mountains. This is the perfect place to unwind and experience authentic Greek life—far from mass tourism.
Just a 10-minute drive brings you to the charming harbor of Agia Efimia, with its cafés, restaurants, and shops. The world-famous Myrtos Beach and several idyllic white-pebble coves with crystal-clear waters—ideal for swimming and snorkeling—are also nearby. For a taste of local cuisine, the beloved taverna Maklithari is just a short walk (5 min) from the villa.
🏡 The Villa
Villa Vounaki is built and furnished to a high standard, combining traditional charm with modern comfort. Spread over two floors and approximately 110 m² of living space, the villa is fully air-conditioned (bedrooms and living room) and offers fast, free Wi-Fi throughout.
Upstairs:
• 3 individually styled bedrooms (1 double, 1 twin, 1 single), each with air-conditioning, ample storage, and balconies with sea or countryside views
• 1 bathroom with shower, WC, and hairdryer
Downstairs:
• Elegant living room with air-conditioning, fireplace, two comfortable sofas, armchair, and wooden dining table
• Entertainment: 36" Smart TV (Astra & Hotbird satellite), DVD/CD player
• Open-plan kitchen, fully equipped for passionate cooks
• 1 bathroom with shower, WC, and hairdryer
🌞 Outdoor Living
The private pool (4 × 7 m, depth 0.50–1.50 m) is located on the sun-drenched southwest side of the property. Just a few steps lead to a shaded pergola lounge with panoramic mountain views—perfect for relaxing with a breeze and a book.
Two additional terraces (east and west) offer sun and shade throughout the day, furnished with comfortable wooden seating, umbrellas, and a mobile gas grill.
The beautifully landscaped Mediterranean garden features vibrant geraniums, roses, oleanders, and aromatic herbs—creating a serene and fragrant environment.

About the host
Hosted by Lida Kougianou (kefalonia-holidayhomes)
My husband Peter and I live during the winter time in Germany. We love to return to Kefalonia and spend our summer time here in Makriotika, this picturesque little village with unique authentic Greek atmosphere and warm hospitality of the people.
We have travelled a lot around the world and our dream has been to return sometime here to this beautiful place and create a Kefalonian holiday accommodation to remember. The project has been designed personally by us with careful consideration of all possible needs of our guests. Though, our aim has been to nest the property harmoniously in its unique wild-romantic environment without changing this.
Since then, we concentrate our efforts on improving and enhancing the accommodation over time. Peter is a keen gardener, so he created a magnificent garden surrounding the villa with colourful Mediterranean flowers and local sweet herbs. A magical place to relax!
Quite simply, "Our priority,...is Your enjoyment... ! " We invite you to to share with us the Kefalonian experience.
