Overall we had a great time. Villa and pool were excellent in a quiet location. Plenty of good restaurants although car required for some of them. Good central location to tour the south of the island.

A wonderful villa in a lovely location

We had a great holiday at this lovely villa. The views from all angles were picturesque, we were sad to leave them behind! The village itself was quiet, which we like, and had all the necessary amenities close by. The restaurants we used were all great and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. We really liked the beach, it was large and not too busy, perfect for the kids. We all enjoyed a boat trip to a secluded beach where we did some snorkelling, the views en route were lovely. The villa itself was a perfect holiday home, big enough for the five of us with a clean pool and good facilities throughout. The couple that manage the villa were really nice and most helpful. All in all in wonderful 12 days were spent here.

Toller Urlaub in wunderschöner Villa

Wir waren als Familie mit 3 Generationen zwischen 26 und 82 Jahren hier und waren alle begeistert. Hier gibt es wirklich nichts zu beanstanden. Die Villa Magdalena ist ein wunderschönes Haus mit tollem Pool (4mx9m, max. 1,60m tief) und einer grandiosen Aussicht. Vielen Dank für die "Erstausstattung" mit Getränken und Lebensmitteln für das erste Frühstück. Wenn man nachts um 23 Uhr ankommt ist man sehr froh darüber. Das ganze Haus ist hell, modern und freundlich eingerichtet mit vielen liebenswerten Details. Alle 3 Badezimmer und auch das Gäste-WC sind mit Fenstern ausgestattet. Ebenfalls vorhanden sind CD-Player, X-Box, Bügelbrett und - eisen. In den 12 Tagen, die wir hier verbrachten, wurden 2x die Handtücher und 1xdie Bettwäsche und Geschirrtücher gewechselt, ausserdem wurde 3x der Pool gesäubert. Vielen Dank auch an Sam, an die man sich jederzeit wenden konnte und die sofort geholfen hat. Auch der Aussenbereich ist schön gestaltet und bietet jederzeit Liegen im Schatten oder in der Sonne. Zitronen-und Orangenbaum, Bougainvillea etc. Eine Tischtennisplatte im Schatten. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht (Tiefkühlfächer, Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher, Kaffeemaschine, Mixer etc.). Wir haben daher auch gerne abends gekocht oder gegrillt, weil wir garnicht wegwollten. Tavernen sind fußläufig zu erreichen (eine ca. 7 Min, andere ca. 15 Min). Zum Strand muss man ebenfalls ca. 15 Min. rechnen. Beim Schnorcheln ist uns dort auch eine unechte Karettschildkröte begegnet. Beim Rückweg geht es allerdings schon ziemlich steil hoch. Kleine Supermärkte sind in Lourdata, wenn man allerdings frische Wurst, Käse einkaufen will oder einfach eine größere Auswahl haben möchte, muss man nach Argostoli fahren(15 km, ca. 25Min.). Ein Auto ist auf jeden empfehlenswert, da Kefalonia und seine Strände es wert sind, die Insel zu erkunden. Agios Thomas Beach in 5 km Entfernung, Argostoli, Assos(!), Fiskardo etc. In den Buchten ist das Wasser glasklar und toll zum schnorcheln. Wir haben den Aufenthalt hier sehr genossen und kommen gerne wieder.

Villa Magdalani, Spacious 3 bed Villa with great views

We had a great time at this very well equipped, stylishly decorated, well maintained villa. It really suited our family, upstairs was a king sized bedroom and a twin, both en-suite. Downstairs there was a double, also en-suite, with double doors opening out onto the pool. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The air conditioning worked very well and there was a mid week change of towels and bed linen. You really need a car to stay here, you can walk down to the beach and tavernas, but the walk back up is very tiring in the heat as the hill is VERY steep, I did it once on the first day. I would really recommend visiting the Capital Argostoli to see the loggerhead turtles in the bay, there are about 30 of them and we saw 3 or 4 each time we went! I would also recommend eating at Taverna Patsouras, a small taverna selling traditional home made greek food in Argostoli. I would also recommend eating at The Olive Lounge, near St Georges Castle which is a 25 minute drive, but very much worth it for the fabulous food and views. You can book with the owners directly, they have a website, you can find it by just searching for the name of the villa. We didn't but I wish I had because I could have saved some money.

Beautiful Villa with a Great View

Lovely villa in a quiet but not isolated position and the view was far better than expected. The villa was very well equipped with more than enough tableware and cooking equipment and everything clean and modern. Villa Magdalani has a beautifully maintained garden that surrounds all sides meaning there is always somewhere to sit in sun or shade. There was a variety of different seating and loungers and the table tennis table is fun to use. Lourdas is a reasonably short walk but quite a steep walk up from the beach, which I imagine would be a struggle for some, particularly in the main summer months. Lots of nice restaurants and small supermarkets within a short drive and some walkable distance. Parking was easy at the beach when we were there in June but don't know what it would be like in high season. After being a little bit apprehensive about booking direct with the owners, I needn't have worried. Jo and Darren made the whole process straightforward and I would thoroughly recommend Villa Magdalani. I would have no hesitation in returning to this property if visiting Kefalonia in the future. Thank you.

Lovely return to Lourdas

Second stay at Villa Magdalani, still beautifully kept and looks new. Everything you could need from great bbq and wonderfully equipped kitchen. Secluded spot with awesome views of the sea and the mountains. Table tennis was great in the high heat as covered. Will be back!

Absolutely Superb

A really first class villa that has everything you could need for a great holiday. Less than 30 mins drive from the airport and spotlessly clean with a generous welcome pack. Loads of excellent bars and restaurants within walking distance and Lourdas beach is great. A car is recommended to cope with the hills in the heat plus to get around the beautiful island. Owners a pleasure to deal with and have loads of helpful information and tips. If you are looking for a brilliant villa to enjoy a great holiday you have found it.

Well presented property with amazing sea views.

Great villa with amazing views, short walk to local tavernas. Good sized pool and patio, the table tennis table was a real hit with our children ! Much nicer to stay in a family owned property as it always feels more homely. Would love to visit again had a brilliant family holiday.

Really lovely villa

The villa, it's setting and views, the pool and outside areas are first class. It is also extremely well equipped, clean, bright and the table tennis table is a bonus. Watching the sunset from the balconies is something not to be missed. There are lots of taverns within walking distance and the mini markets and bakers have everything you might need if you're bar b Q ing or eating in. A car is useful not just for getting shopping up the hill but to explore this lovely island, but as long as your relatively fit it's not essential. The neighbours are also very nice, but not at all intrusive and have helpful suggestions about places to visit and how to get there. They also gave us a jar of homemade apricot jam! The owners are very quick to respond and helpful. I cannot recommend this villa highly enough.

Absolutely Beautiful

Villa Magdalani is a delightful home from home. A stunning location with lovely views from every aspect. On arrival it was exactly as described and spotlessly clean. The owners were easy to contact and quick to reply. I would recommend to others and may even come back myself one day. You do need a car for carrying your shopping back up the steep hills and for exploring the island but for the relatively fit, the walk to the beach and the shops is manageable. My 8 and 5 year old children as well as my 70 year old father included. Had lovely food in all of the tavernas we visited but especially Lorraines Magic Hill, Olive Lounge, Zorbas and Klimatis. Boat trip to Fiscardo is well worth it as is the drive up to the top of Mount Ainos National Park. Lourdas beach is very clean with plenty of sunbeds at a reasonable daily rate. Mini markets in the town are well stocked and reasonably priced. Fresh bread was delicious as were the enormous tomatoes. Robola wine definitely worth sampling too. A great holiday and a shame to have to go home.
