Some homes really do have it all and this is one such example. Not only does the stone villa have a covetable location right on the western coastline of Kefalonia, but this means beautiful views of the Ionian Sea and Dias Island. As you would hope, there are plenty of spots from which you can appreciate this stunning panorama. Doing so while gliding through the infinity swimming pool is a stellar option, but there are more options on dry land, whether it's while lying back on one of the loungers or tending to the barbecue underneath the verandah. Although it's easy to embrace alfresco living here, the villa's interior is noteworthy too for its contemporary decor, all soothing neutral tones, chic furnishings and eye-catching light fixtures. In the wider resort, there are even communal gym and yoga facilities that guests are welcome to use. When you can muster up the willpower to drag yourself away from this incredible home, Paliolinos Beach sits only twelve minutes' walk away and is one of a huge number of coves and seaside spots to be discovered nearby. The city of Argostolion is only a twenty-minute drive away, as well.
