Villa Lithia

Stayed September 2018

Beautiful villa with stunning views!

We have just returned from our two week stay at Villa Lithia and would highly recommend. The villa offers everything you need to make your stay comfortable and is well equipped. It was cleaned regularly providing fresh linen and towels and the pool was well maintained. The view from the terrace is stunning - it’s very relaxing to sit and watch the boats coming and going, whilst listening to the tinkling of the sheep and goat bells in the distance! Lots of lovely eating places in Fiscardo which was only a ten minute drive away and a couple of small shops and tavernas in the nearby village which was only a fifteen minute walk. Bob made the booking process easy and always answered all our questions promptly. Overall we had a wonderful experience and would love to return again some day.

Beautiful Villa

We've just returned from an 11 day stay from this fab villa and already know we'll be back there!
Amazing views, fantastic pool area - with umbrellas if shade is needed, wifi, well equipped kitchen, comfy bed and air conditioning. Basically everything you need.
Fiskardo is a 45 minute walk through some wooded area and path - it's hilly on the way home! The most amazing beaches are a short drive away .... the colour of the water is breathtaking.
Thanks Bob for all your help. Oh - and for future visitors, given Paul the cat an extra cuddle from me. I am not a cat person (more of a dog person) but Paul is such a cutey!
Already looking forward to the next visit. :-)
Handy tip - we arrived very late at night - Bob gives great directions, but we found it just fine by putting Katsarata into Google Maps and then following Bob's excellent directions from there.

A Fantastic Brilliant and perfect place.

Just returned from a fantastic week at Villa Lithia. The villa was well furnished and equipped with everything I could think of right down to hairdryers and conversion plugs, the cleaner came in twice while I was there to do a big clean and change the linen and I have to say the property was spotless. Loads of places to sit and eat and a large pool and deck to sunbathe, the front veranda has a large pergola when a bit of shade is necessary and also has a large table and chairs, the views over to Ithaca are among the best on the island and change daily with the yachts and motor boats leaving Fiscardo.
We had no difficulty finding the villa thanks to very accurate driving directions from Bob Avaient the owner who also sorted out our car hire, and any questions we had before we left about the area or villa were answered promptly and with a great degree of local knowledge. With a couple of tavernas within walking distance and Fiscardo a 4 minute drive away we were never short of somewhere to eat or just sit with a coffee and watch island life go by, trips to Assos and Ithaca are a great day out.
My security was returned quickly with no fuss and I would certainly recommend this property to anyone.

Wonderful villa in an ideal location!

Villa Lithia is lovely, the facilities are excellent and it is in a beautiful position with fantastic views and convenient also to get to local beaches and restaurants too, either in nearby villages or in Fiscardo where there is a larger selection of restaurants in the harbour area. There is a small supermarket nearby and larger ones in nearby Fiscardo too, which is about 15 minutes drive away. The villa is kept very clean and the pool cleaned regularly too. We would definitely recommend Villa Lithia to our family and friends and most certainly will be returning. Bob was wonderful and made booking this villa very easy, he was so helpful. He also helped us sort out a hire car too which was great and gave us some recommendations for local beaches, restaurants etc too, which we found very useful.

Hi Bob

A quick note to tell you that we had a wonderful two weeks at Villa Lithia, from 17/8 to 31/8. 

Everything was just right, from the outset. The location and villa were perfect. The pool was simply fantastic: my two grandchildren of very differing ages, loved it. They would have been more than happy to do nothing else for the two weeks but splash about, playing my 6 year old’s imaginary pirates and treasure games. 

Watching the sunrise from the top bedroom was as wonderful as seeing a sky full of stars at night: reminded me of how much we miss out on in London! 

Once we got to grips with the driving, it was great to explore the various beaches. The walk from the villa to Fiskardo was a challenge, but after breakfast at
The Captain’s Cabin, my daughter and I decided to walk back as well; excellent bonding time, if a little foolhardy!

Your villa is beautiful and I have recommended it; can’t sing its praises enough. 

Kind regards,
Jeanne

Beautiful villa and location

We have just returned from a wonderful weeks stay at this lovely villa. We loved the beautiful views and the villa is in a very peaceful location centrally placed for Fiscardo and also beaches on the west coast. We loved Jerusalem beach and Tavern and also enjoyed sunset at Aqua Atlaties Tavern and beach. Hired a boat for the day from Regina boats in Fiscardo which was fab and enjoyed meals in Fiscardo at Elli’s, Iridas and the Captains cabin ( the stifado here was the best meal of all ). The villa also isn’t far for day trip visits to Assos, Mythos, the caves near Sami and Anti Samos for days out. All in all a lovely weeks stay in a beautiful villa and location.We have just returned from a wonderful weeks stay at this lovely villa.

Beautiful Kefalonia

Villa Lithia is just beautiful, fabulous set up and a great pool. It was perfect for our family, within easy driving distance to Fiskardo and other surrounding villages. The ‘blue and white’ (as our 2 year old called them) walking trails start at the doorstep and are all over. They are a great way to get about if you don’t want to drive. It is peaceful and has everything that you need. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. The Howarth Family

Lithia 2025

First time on Kefalonia and didn't let us down.

Bob was great from start to finish organised our hire car and a few restaurant reservations. Villa was great for our family of 5 large grounds big pool and nice and private, 10 minute walk to Maganos for some great tavernas and a well stocked mini mart. Would have given a 5 but nothings perfect.

Would definitely recommend.

We have just returned from a wonderful week at Villa Lithia.

The villa was very well appointed, but most of our time was spent outside.  There were several seating areas, depending if you wanted sun or shade.

Our favourite was to sit on the front veranda under the pergola. The view is spectacular over the sea to the other islands. Good fun was to watch the yachts coming and going out of Fiscardo.

The pool, of course was a winner with our two young children. My parents accompanied us and stayed in the Guest House which gave them privacy and space.

Our best was waking up to the sound of the goat bells in the morning.

We will definitely return!

Review

We have just returned from a truly fabulous holiday to Kefalonia.  Our stay in Villa Lithia could not have been more perfect and Bob arranged everything for us including superb car hire.

The views from the Villa will stay with me forever!!!

We can’t recommend Greek Island Retreats highly enough.

Can’t wait to return!!!!

Thank you …….
