Olive Garden Apartments Reviews

We visited Kefalonia in early october, which was perfect because it was coming into low season but still had excellent weather for the vast majority of the time we were there. It was about 30 for 6 days out of 7 (thunder storm on last day!).

Olive Garden Apartments are perched on top of the hill that seperates Lassi from Argostoli and so had excellent views out to sea with the sunsets being particualy breathtaking. It was our first time to Kefalonia and we had read a great deal about its beauty. Suffice to say we werent disapointed and these apartments served us well as a base to explore the island by car (essential - get a jeep!).

We had one of the studios on the ground floor. Above us were two bedroom apartments with balconies. The rooms were perfectly adequate for us (a couple), although the bathroom was a touch basic. The kitchen was well equipped with a combi oven and hob if you want to cook for yourselves. We didnt do this very often as Kefalonia has so many places to eat that offer great value for money.

The pool was very clean and perfectly situated with great views and loads of sun loungers. We spent every morning taking a dip while the sun heated the air. The bar and eating area is next to the pool and Nick the owner provides enthusiastic Greek-American banter throughout the day.

the only real drawback about these apartments is their situation on a steep and winding hill. we had no problem walking up a few times but we are both in our 20s ( i even managed some shopping!). it may be more of a problem for elderly people or those with walking difficulties. having said that, taxis are only 5 euros to get up every time.

All in all a great place to stay to explore a beautiful place.
