Kefalonia is the largest of the Ionian Islands, the location for the film adaptation of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin and home to some glorious beaches; if you’re keen to see all that it has to offer, it makes sense to pick a reasonably central location. Step forward the Avithos Hotel, beautifully styled and located in Svoronata, on the south west coast. Set amongst a tranquil landscape of olive groves and cypress trees, this stylishly designed hotel is a luxurious oasis of attractive buildings and pretty gardens boasting an impressive swimming pool and separate children’s pool. Days here feel delightfully decadent in the shade of the comfortable cabanas spaced around the edge, with massage available while you lie there – or in your room if you prefer.
A choice of deluxe suites and maisonettes, each with kitchen and private balcony or veranda, makes the hotel an ideal choice for couples and families (2 adults, 2 children) seeking the flexibility of self-catering accommodation combined with the services of a well-run hotel. Interiors are light and airy; contemporary in style, with a restful blend of earthy tones and natural materials creating a sense of discreet luxury and harmony. Breakfast is included, served in the attractive dining area or on the pool terrace and a tempting choice of light meals and drinks are available throughout the day at the poolside snack bar.
Avithos Beach and its two delightful tavernas are within easy walking distance of the property and just a short drive from the lively island capital Argostoli, a vibrant and attractive venue for shopping, boat trips or a sophisticated evening out. Day trips to many of the island’s famous beaches are a realistic possibility too, thanks to the convenient location, and pretty Fiskardo, in the far north of the island, is about an hour and 15-minutes away by car. Avithos Hotel is an exciting addition to our hotel collection, and we are delighted to welcome it to our portfolio for 2021.

Densely forested hills dotted with traditional hamlets and a coastline of small, quiet coves make Kefalonia an unspoilt Greek holiday delight. Its northeastern tip shelters picture-perfect Fiskardo, whose 18th-century houses stand proud with their flower-festooned balconies and carved doors. South Kefalonia hosts Argostoli, the vibrant island capital that still has an active fishing fleet alongside its buzzing cafes and restaurants. Come early and you’ll probably spot a loggerhead turtle in the harbour, or stay late and take a stroll down the waterfront promenade. Trapezaki is a little southern secret, with beautiful views over the sea to Zakynthos and up to Mount Ainos, the highest peak on the island. There’s an unspoilt sandy beach here with a single taverna, and if you’re looking for more choice, try Lourdas, a lovely long sandy/shingle beach lined with waterfront cafes and restaurants.
