Villa Alexandra - Sarlata Villas Kefalonia - Luxurious Vacation Rentals

our Villa. Your Vacation. Your Memories.

Discover the beauty of Kefalonia and make your dream vacation a reality. Our luxurious 3-bedroom villas, nestled in this idyllic Mediterranean paradise, are the perfect escape for families, friends, and couples from all corners of the globe.
Imagine waking up to the gentle breeze of the Ionian Sea, surrounded by lush greenery, and being greeted by the breathtaking views of the deep azure waters. Sarlata Villas is strategically perched to offer you the best of both worlds - tranquility and proximity to the bustling attractions of Kefalonia.

Your Choice, Our Commitment

We have designed a unique villa experience for you and we're dedicated to making your vacation exceptional. Whether you're seeking adventure, romance, or relaxation, our villa is the perfect base for your Kefalonia adventure.

Luxury Living

Villa Alexandra & Villa Elina are two twin villas, private and exclusive, that share nothing but the stunning sea view. Step inside our elegantly designed villas, where comfort meets style. Modern minimalism goes harmonically hand in hand with the traditional Kefalonian architecture, featuring comfortable spaces, lavishly landscaped gardens and top quality Italian furnishing throughout. With 3 spacious bedrooms and 3 modern bathrooms, there's room for everyone. Unwind in the open-concept living area, enjoy cooking in the fully-equipped kitchen, and dine al fresco on the terrace as the sun sets over the horizon.

Private Paradise

Each villa has its own private entrance and parking area and stands on its own stunning grounds of 1000m2. The two villas are “mirror” - image built one next to the other and are separated by a dense Leyland fence, securing privacy.

Your very own oasis awaits in our private heated 45m2 pool with a relaxing Jacuzzi. Whether you're taking a refreshing dip or sipping cocktails by the poolside, you'll create memories to cherish. The sea and sunset views from Sarlata Villas are second to none, offering you the perfect backdrop for your vacation photos.

The villas comprise 3 floors with 3 double bedrooms capable of accommodating 2-6 people, and 3 luxury walk–in shower bathrooms, all fully air-conditioned. Entering this marvelous house, the ground floor offers a cozy living/ dining room with satellite TV and fireplace. The fully fitted kitchen with a hob, oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and NESPRESSO coffee maker benefits from its secluded space with its own patio door right next to the BBQ. All openings lead directly to the fully landscaped garden and the pool. A comfortable tiled staircase takes you to the upper floor which comprises two double bedrooms with a bathroom and balconies with amazing panoramic views, or to the lower floor which also offers a twin bedroom with a walk-in shower bathroom. The lower level room, however, benefits from the advantage of a private entrance, due to the exterior staircase that leads directly to the garden and pool.

The villas are intended for private use and are capable of accommodating 2- 6 people, but if taken together they are ideal for friends and extended families.

E.O.T certified (Greek Tourist Board).

Undoubtedly, Kefalonia is a treasure trove of adventure and relaxation. Explore nearby beaches, charming villages, and vibrant markets. Sarlata is a picturesque, traditional little village located 8km southwestern from Argostoli and 2km from the International Airport of Kefalonia at the district department of “Livathos”. Known as a settlement since the 19th century, it was traditionally the home of mainly top stone craftsmen and builders and of course seamen and sailors. Sarlata has now approx. 300 residences that of course double during summer.

The village is tiered built on the hillside slope that starts from the village of Lakithra and reaches down the Valley of Livatho, boasting of 180o uncut panoramic views to the Ionian Sea. Sarlata Village are known for its marvelous churches, the oldest being the pre-earthquake Church of Virgin Mary. The area of Livathos is a historic place that dates back to the prehistoric eras. Among the must –see spots are:

Mazarakata, where the founding’s of the excavations revealed vaulted mass graves of the late Mycenean period with 84 chamber tombs.

The Castle of Saint George, which dates back to the military and administrative area of the island up to 1757, it is built on the well-fortified top of the highest hill in the region (320m).

The Monastery of Saint Andreas Milapidia, built around 1579.

Our neighboring settlement, Kourkoumelata, been also called the most beautiful village in the Balkans. The original village having been totally destroyed in the 1953 earthquakes, it was rebuilt with donations from the ship-owner, George Vergoti, who gave the new houses to landowners free of charge.

The main village of Lakithra. 500 meters above, where Lord Byron sat in the place we now call “Byron’s Rock” and composed poetry.

In a ratio between 2 – 8km around you, the coastline of Livathos offers some of the most beautiful beaches of the island: Minies at 2 km, Ammes at 2 km, Ai Helis at 4 km and Makris Gialos in Lassi at 8km.

Restaurants and mini markets, also bars and wineries complement the facilities this amazing area can offer.

Wunderschöne Villa mit mega Aussicht

Wir hatten eine super tolle Woche in der Villa. Das Highlight ist natürlich der Garten mit Pool und der wunderschöne Ausblick, vor allem bei Sonnenuntergang. Die Lage war etwas außerhalb, aber mit dem Mietwagen erreicht man schnell Strände, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter lief reibungslos. Auch spontan wurden alle unsere Fragen geklärt. Ganz besonderen Dank auch an Rubina, die täglich im Hintergrund alles sauber gehalten hat.

Perfection

Everything about this villa is superb, from the view to the amazing outdoor space, the very useful welcome pack and Rubina the maid’s daily visits. The villa is conveniently close to the airport (4 minutes drive) which is very handy if you’re landing after midnight as we did. The planes do not disturb the tranquility but rather offer an occasional diversion. Kefalonia is a fantastic destination with so many beautiful beaches to explore and the island remains unspoilt. Highlights for us were a trip to Assos and Myrtos Beach and an amazing meal at Anemos Taverna at Kaminia beach. Definitely hope to return to the island and villa soon.

Wonderful stay and beautiful villa. Perfect for a family getaway

We very much enjoyed the villa. The highlight is definitely the pool and garden area and the beautiful views. We travelled with two 5 year old girls, and it was really great having both a small and a big pool. Also, loved the fact that there were sun lounges on two sides of the pool. We used the BBQ outside nearly every day. It requires charcoal, so had to find somewhere to buy that. It's a definite bonus that the villa gets a daily clean as well as 2x weekly pool clean and gardening. It truly felt like being in paradise. And we were pleasantly surprised about the limited noise from the airport, but rather fun seeing the few planes come in (only about 20 a day). You definitely need to have a rental car to stay here, and the road is fairly steep and narrow up to the house. The wifi disconnects every hour and it would be nice if we didn't have to log back on every hour for the full week. In terms of beds and facilities, the house has everything you need. There are no nearby cafes, so you're either at the house or out somewhere with the car. We enjoyed having a few full days at the house and otherwise got to explore the beautiful island. There were a few insects around, so recommend insect repellent to avoid bites. All in all a wonderful holiday and would definitely recommend the house to families looking for a great pool villa experience in the sunshine.

A Great Place to Stay

Excellent info in run up to stay from owner and meet on on arrival. Villa superb, quiet and private and met our exact needs for 6 adults. Stayed for 7 nts with our family for 25th wedding anniversary. Villa is well equipped, modern, spacious and tastefully decorated. Pool and jacuzzi lovely in well kept gardens with exterior sun deck, patio, bbq area and outside seating for six. Views beautiful of sea, nearby islands and evening sunsets, although only 10 mins for airport you don't notice it really. Good places to eat only 10 mins away or travel to Agostoli, which is 15 mins away, for quay side dining plus restaurants in main square and shopping. You must visit Fiskardo, even though it's a trek, plus Mytros beach, dramatic views on coast road back to Agostoli, both are very beautiful, Skala beach is good also. Tips - you need a car and access is via very steep hill but don't let this put you off!

fabulous property amazing pool

After a short drive from the airport we arrived at villa Alexandra, where we were warmly greeted by Alexandra and Rubina bearing fresh fruit and flowers. The kitchen was stocked with a selection of refrigerated items, bread and crackers along with a welcome bottle of wine. The villla is beautiful with great views and and an amazing pool with jacuzzi looking out to sea.Rubina kept everything immaculately clean, regular sheet changes and fresh towels, without intruding, the beds are really comfortable and the pillows a dream. It is airy and spacious, we were a group of 4 adults and two teenagers, there was room for us all to sunbathe or chill out and there are plenty of shady spots to relax out of the sun. Ate out at Vinaries, Casa grec Sto Psito and Paparrazzi, a fabulous little italian just off Argostoli square. The local eaterie Dum Spiros is good but for a special night Vinaries just along the Piccolo Giro out of Argostoli is great. Must recommend the nearby supermarket saggitarius super friendly staff with help choosing wines, the bakery at Peratata and buy your fruit and veg from the waterside market in Argostoli, you can catch the turtles swimming while you are there. Local cat and his heavily pregnant wife, were regular visitors and were both given affectionate names, he tends to leave cat dribble if you leave the sunbed cushions out at night. We had a fantastic week here and would highly recommend it. Top tip hang any open food, bread crisps cracker etc, from the curtain poles in the kitchen or the ants will get in.

Luxury home from home

June 2017, 4 of us stayed at the Villa. It is literally a few minutes from the airport. Elina kindly arranged for a taxi to pick us up (20 euros) and also liaised with the car hire company (Greekstones - rent a car) to delivery the car to the villa on the morning of day 2. Villa Alexandra was perfect for our week in the sun. It is well equipped both internally and externally as the website shows (photos are accurate). The proximity to Lassi is great (5-10mins) as there is a superb beach there with excellent facilities, Argastoli is a further few minutes by car. We ventured to the north of the island to visit the picturesque fishing port of Fiskardo, passing the amazing view/beach at Myrtos. The journey took around 2 hours and is not for the faint hearted. There are a few large supermarkets outside of Argostoli, I would give Lldl a miss and go across the road to A&B Supermarket (i think that was the name) cleaner, greater choice and better value. Something to note, there's a family of cats that live around the villa, mum dad and a kitten. They were very thin when we arrived but we bought tins of food for then from the shops. They actually completed our holiday, as pet people we very much warmed to them and by the end of the week, they'd all put on a lot of weight. There's a guest book in the villa that mentions the cat's and someone actually bragged about NOT feeding them, pretty heartless in my opinion. To sum up, a great villa, perfect location, excellent amenities, caring owners. Would I go back? Definitely.

Wunderschöne Villa mit traumhaften Außenbereich und Meerblick

Wir haben im Oktober 13 Tage lang einen schönen und erholsamen Urlaub in der Villa Alexandra verbracht. Die Villa ist sehr schön und wohnlich eingerichtet. Der Außenbereich ist außergewöhnlich schön. Fast jeden Abend konnten wir den traumhaften Sonnenuntergang über dem Meer bei einem Glas Wein genießen. Bedanken müssen wir uns noch einmal bei Rubina, die sich jeden Tag um die Bäder, die Schlafzimmer und den Rest des Hauses kümmerte und dabei völlig im Hintergrund arbeitete. Auch die Insel Kefalonia hat uns gut gefallen. Im Oktober ist es dort sehr ruhig, aber auch sehr erholsam. An den vielen kleinen Stränden ist man fast alleine. Uns - wir waren sechs Personen - hat der Urlaub sehr gut gefallen. Wir werden bestimmt zurückkehren.

5 Star Villa near airport

Booked Villa Alexandra for two weeks in July. I at the time didn't realise how close the Villa is to the Airport but fear not fellow travellers although its close it does not disturb your stay at all. You can see the runway from the garden but the Villa is above the airport on a hill which makes for interesting viewing. Beds comfortable AC worked well (it was in the 30's every day) BBQ area fantastic, maid service great but we asked for every other day which was enough, the maid even tided my teenagers bedroom every visit ! . Location is good for Capital which has many great resturants and a very good food market and bakers. Elina booked us a day on a yacht from Argistoli which was a great way of seeing the Island. Pool is by far the best we have had at a Villa and we loved the spa pool at night. Plenty of parking and private gates which work on a remote is a great Idea. Would highly recommend the villa.

Fantastic setting and Villa - no regrets

This is a great villa, perfect for families and groups alike. Its well maintained and equipped, very close to the airport - but far enough away not to be affected by the arrivals and departures, at least for us it didn't have an impact. While the interior is well furnished, its the outside space that is the real winner and if like us you spend most of your time outside then you can't ask for a better setting with great views and pool/jacuzzi. Cleaned daily and our rooms were tidied also. Although its located just a few kilometers from the airport and shops, you will probably struggle without a car or some form of transport (scooter is perfect for travelling around the local area and island) due to the steep hill its located on - this is probably the only thing you will need to take into consideration when booking. On the flip side you wouldn't get views like you do if you were not on such a hill! its just 10mins drive to the capital Argostoli and all the amenities and restaurants there, with Lassi, the largest local resort with the best beach in the area (Makris Gialos) also on the same road about 7 mins drive away. Highly recommended!

As stunning as the pictures suggest!

What can we say. The villas are as perfect as they look. We got married on the island through mygreekwedding & these villas made the day & the whole stay more than we could have hoped for. They are so easy to find literally 5 minutes to the airport. Don't worry though if you haven't been to Kefalonia the airport is tiny so you hear maybe 2 planes a day & to be honest you enjoy watching them. They don't fly over you at all. The villas are set up on the hill with stunning views, 3 eagles fly above daily & all you hear is the ringing of bells on goats down below. The villas are not really overlooked by other properties or each other. You drive up quite a steep hill to a private gate but explore as there are 2 ways to the villas so you can avoid the hill. The interior of the villas is slightly smaller than the photos suggest but this is NOT a negative. They are still spacious & as beautiful as in the photos. Each room has AC & the upstairs rooms have balconies. We had our baby in the master bedroom with us in a travel cot provided & still had plenty of room. Kitchen lacked storage for food but that is because so much equipment is provided. Stick it all in one cupboard! The pool....bigger than expected! Nice & shallow at one end for kids then deep at the other. Im 6'3 & could just touch the bottom. The jacuzzi was a really good size too. Villa Elina has more grassed area for games but Alexandra's pool catches the morning sun so was slightly warmer so depends what you prefer. We stayed for 2 weeks in villa Elina then some more friends & family came in our second week to stay in Alexandra. Our ages ranged from 2 years old to 81 years old & every person loved & enjoyed the villas. We don't think you will find anything nicer! Enjoy your stay Benn & Helen Darnbrough

Wow - fantastic!

Our first reaction walking into the villa was 'wow'. Looks so much better than the photos. Views were amazing. Flowers in garden beautiful. Attention to detail of the villa fantastic. We had such a lovely relaxing holiday at this villa with our two boys aged 4 and 5. They just loved the pool. Really enjoyed having evening bbq's then watching lovely sunsets. Everything you needed had been thought of in this villa and more. Thought it was a great central base to visit the beautiful island of Kefalonia. We have already booked to go again! You do need a car as nothing is in walking distance but this was not a problem for us as enjoyed exploring.

Recommendation for Villa Elina

My husband and I (ages 60 & 54) stayed at Villa Elina 21/9 - 5/10. It really is a lovely villa; in fact the best we've stayed in. The pool and jacuzzi are excellent - very well maintained and beautifully clean. The BBQ area again is the best we've had. A lot of thought has gone into the design and the quality of the finish is excellent. The property is very well maintained. The cleaner does a thorough job twice a week, as does the pool man. The owners - Elina and Alexandra - are both very helpful and friendly. They really seem to care that you have a good holiday. The provision of pool towels was a welcome touch. The views from the villa are excellent - over to Zakynthos to the left and Argostoli Bay to the right, where you can sit and watch some lovely sunsets. I was a little nervous that you can see the airport runway from the villa but there was no need; it is not in the least intrusive. In fact, you hardly notice the planes. It's certainly not Heathrow so no need to be concerned. It's a good base for sightseeing. Over the 2 weeks we saw the whole island. The local Avithos beach is beautifully clean and sandy. There are 2 good tavernas there. Skala also has a lovely beach and is nice for a wander. Drogarati cave was disappointing but Melissani lake is worth a visit. The boatmen were a hoot! Myrtos beach and Assos are also lovely. There are lots of restaurants and tavernas in Argostoli. We ate in Mythos, Taverna Diana and Portside and were not disappointed. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. The only downside to our holiday was the weather, but that's outside of the owner's control and we did go very late in the season. The guest book had entries from June onwards and everyone said what wonderful weather they'd had. We'd definitely go again but earlier in the year. We'd highly recommend Villa Elina or it's sister Villa, Alexandra.

Every year we hire holiday villa`s but this one is quite special.Everything has been finished to a very high standard,the layout of the villa is very easy and the pool and pool area is one of the best we have had.A lot of hard work has gone into this villa(the photos of the view`s do not do them justice)and for once the advert is right, thay are breathtaking! The owner`s where very friendly and helpfull and made us feel at home as soon as we arrived at the villa, in fact every one we came in contact with were great.We thought LASSI just down the road had the best sandy beaches with afordable sun beds, some really good restaurants, `oh` and i must not forget lassi supermarket who were alway`s friendly and heplfull no matter what.You really must check out SPRIOS in SVORONATA! Those are not the only places that we visited but it is a start, all i can say is you just have to get out there and you will not be disappointed. We would recommend this villa holiday to anyone,we will definatly come again. Thank you all very much for a lovely holiday.
