Overlooking the deep blue of the Ionian Sea and the charming fishing village of Agia Effimia on Kefalonia’s east coast, this beautiful villa is the perfect setting to enjoy the romance of this beautiful island’s rugged landscape. Panoramic vistas stretch out before you – best enjoyed from the private infinity pool or on one of its plump sun loungers. When the sun gets too hot, cool down beneath the outdoor shower or retreat to the shade of the pergola where seating provides the ideal spot to enjoy the complimentary breakfast provided or a starlit barbecue feast at the end of the night. Inside, meanwhile, the decor is pared-back and earthy and has been curated by a designer who's been in love with the magic of Kefalonia since childhood. Modern and minimalist, you’ll love how the surrounding rocks have been used to build this home and the way it’s been designed around those panoramic views that take centre stage from the glass windows. Whether you’re waking up in the comfortable bed here or falling asleep in it after a day of adventure, the Ionian provides the most incredible backdrop you’ll never tire of enjoying. When you’re not busy soaking up the... bliss of your slice of paradise, make a beeline for Ivo Beach, a ten-minute walk away, or stroll into town to enjoy the shops and tavernas three minutes away.
