A fabulous stay at Villa Yasmina! We loved it so much last year that we knew we had to come back! We loved hiring a boat in Agia Efimia! Once again Mike was extremely helpful with everything. The pool was our favourite…Mummy and Daddy had to tear us away to explore the rest of the island ha ha! Fave beaches were Agios Thomas, Liminali Beach near Lassi where we swam with turtles and saw a seal! Also Paliostafida Beach. Villa Yasmina is so much like home with so many useful things. We hope to come back again – will start saving as soon as we get home! Thea
Thank you for a fabulous stay at Villa Yasmina! Perfect location for a “chill-out” holiday….we could not have asked for more! Lovely beaches, nice restaurants, and wonderful afternoons and evenings by the pool! Thanks to Mike for his communications. We would love to come back soon!
What a fantastic villa – everything you need and more!! Fabulous place! We loved Sirtaki taverna in Lassi…eat in the Secret Garden there – it’s magical! Also Preview at Avithos beach has great views and food was lovely. Mounda beach on the Skala Road is our fave if you want space and beautiful warm clear water. Went snorkelling and saw lots of fish. Thanks for a great holiday!
Villa Yasmina has been the perfect base for our 2 weeks in Kefalonia. The pool and the views are fantastic and the villa is very comfortable and the kitchen well-stocked with everything we needed and more. We managed to explore lots of places on the island and also on neighbouring Ithica. We’ve enjoyed lots of lovely meals out in a variety of tavernas, cafes, and restaurants. The Castle (Kastro) Café was a particular favourite for breakfast, lunch, and brunch!! All in all we have had a fabulous holiday and would highly recommend Villa Yasmina to anyone coming to Kefalonia. Thank you!!!
A wonderful week in Villa Yasmina – first time staying here but second visit to Kefalonia. Fab set-up at the villa, so many helpful items! Mike was wonderful at communicating and answering all our queries. Our recommendations……Agios Thomas, 5min drive, fab beach for snorkelling and swimming…we loved Makris Gialos too in Lassi. Fiskardo (north of the island) is well worth a visit and Antisamos beach is great! We also hired a self-drive boat which was great fun. Elainos taverna and Kastro Café were our favourites. Go to Argostoli in the morning to see the turtles in the harbour. We can’t wait to come back…the girls loved the pool – we had to drag them away! Thank you Mike & Lesley for loaning us this piece of Kefalonian Paradise. See you next time Villa Yasmina!! xxx
Villa Yasmina has been amazing and we have enjoyed our 3 weeks playing in the pool and watching the sun set by the Castle each evening. We have also visited lots of beaches and our favourite was Assos where we had a lovely swim in the clear waters. We also liked going to the Kastro Café up by the Castle where the food was amazing. I rate this holiday 10/10…thank you Villa Yasmina!! Grace & Lyla.
THAT WAS AMAZING!! We can’t wait to come back. The view...WOW, the pool...fantastic, the villa was so well equipped. Straighteners!...thank you!
The boat we hired in Aghia Effemia was the best day ever...I ended up swimming with turtles in the sea! We loved how well equipped the kitchen was and you could find everything you wanted at AB supermarket.
I just want to be back...open those shutters to the view and drink in the sunshine and greenery. We arrived at the villa late at night so the Welcome Pack was really appreciated.
The villa really is a home-from-home and we all enjoyed the pool immensely.
We will be back! Thank you.
We are here celebrating our Ruby Wedding Anniversary. Villa Yasmina is everything you could wish for. Its location and views are just beautiful. The lovely pool was perfect. The villa was immaculate with a well-equipped kitchen and the welcome pack was a nice touch.
The villa is lovely, everything you need is available and the pool is fantastic. Kefalonia is beautiful and the views and beaches are stunning. Pam & Ivor, the property managers, are very friendly and helpful with places to eat and to visit. Thanks for a wonderful holiday.
Thank you for an amazing holiday...we don't want to leave!! We love the villa and Kefalonia in general. We've done a lot of relaxing by the pool but have also managed to see a great deal of the island. Our highlights were Avithos beach, Sami, Assos, and the kids loved the water park at the Ionian Sea Hotel on the Lixouri peninsular. It's only small with 5 slides but perfect for our 6 and 8 year olds.
The Castle of St George is well worth a visit too...free entry, very interesting and great views. We have found Villa Yasmina to be the perfect escape...beautiful, quiet, and peaceful.
Great sunset views every night...stunning. Thank you!
Amazing villa! We have had the most relaxing week in this beautiful villa. Villa Yasmina has everything you need and more. We can't think of anything that was missing.
Ivor (villa manager) and Keith (pool maintenance) were very helpful with their advice while we were there and the owner, Mike (in the UK) communicated lots with all the relevant info we needed prior to coming out to Kefalonia.
This is our second time coming to the island and this area and we were once again "wowed" by the scenery and views. We re-visited a few places but spent the majority of the time enjoying Villa Yasmina. When life is so busy and hectic at home this is the perfect place to escape to and recharge your batteries.
We would definitely return and we highly recommend Villa Yasmina to others.
Thank you from both of us.
What an amazing villa, very clean, lovely views, a real find. We have been to the island several times and just keep coming back, it's all unspoilt with nice people...they're so polite and helpful. We've tried to re-book for September but of course the villa is fully booked. We will definitely be returning to Villa Yasmina...thank you Mike & Lesley for allowing us to share your wonderful villa.
This was my first visit to Kefalonia and after seeing pictures of Villa Yasmina I was not disappointed to discover it in real life. The villa is stunning with amazing views and equipped with more luxuries than I have at home! The gardens are beautiful with birds and butterflies in abundance, and the pool is immaculate. Thank you for a wonderful holiday and cherished memories.
On the Saturday we arrived at thew villa and were greeted by Pam & Ivor who gave us a great low down on the local area, lots of useful tips and recommendations. We spent many days by the pool-great views and very relaxing-a real retreat. We were lucky enough to catch the fishermen feeding the turtles in Argostoli and purchased some fresh fish to BBQ for our evening meal. Kefalonia is a beautiful island and Villa Yasmina has been a great stay for us-lots of thought has gone into making this a real holiday home.
This is our third time to this wonderful country, but the first time to a villa. We have had the most relaxing time here. It is fantastic. We cannot thank Pam & Ivor (property managers) enough for all their help- thank you. Also the pool guy, Keith, was really helpful with wonderful ideas of places to visit. We have had a great break- just the 4 of us and it has been exactly as we had hoped. I'm sure we shall return soon.
This is our second trip to Villa Yasmina and Kefalonia and it was just as beautiful the second time around. We've spent our time between Avithos Beach and the villa pool during the day. Having visited a number of the Greek Islands the beauty and hospitality of Kefalonia is one of the best.
We’ve had a lovely week in Kefalonia. The weather has been lovely all the time. The pool is really big and was always clear and clean. My favourite place to visit was Argostoli. There were huge turtles in the harbour and the museum was interesting. We had bread from the local bakery everyday for breakfast and grapes from the mini market. I really want to come again next year.
Thank you so much for the villa. I really enjoyed it especially the pool. I really want to come here next year. 10/10
