We had been to Kefalonia before but it was our first time at Villa Costa. We quickly found out that the majority of guests were regulars who repeat book. At first we found the owner/manager offhand but as the week went by you realised he was probably a bit shy. He certainly runs an impressive set up. Our room was... More

A very pleasant six roomed hotel, run by owner, with his mother doing everything else. good chef, but we wished we had gone out to skala more. Lovely place to stay. I really enjoyed a boat trip to Ithaca, from the beach just outside the hotel. Evening fishing is available off beach. All you would expect of a Greek island,... More

This place is an absolute gem to just chill out, catch the sun and enjoy great food. The gardens are beautiful and the rooms delightful. We were so lucky with the weather which helped us and enjoy our 1 week stay here, but if the weather was bad then it could have been a totally different story. Villa costa seemed... More

Breakfast eaten outside in the very well tended garden is very relaxing and the selection... More

I Wish I was back right now! I must admit when I first arrived I couldn't understand what all of the hipe was about. My first impressions of this pretty property was small, neat, very clean, friendly but very, very quite, although we did go in October which was at the end of the season and most hotels and shops...

We have just returned from one week at Villa Costa and felt we had to write a review on this wonderful hotel. The hotel itself is beautifully kept - everyday the garden and decking areas by the pool are swept and tidied. The rooms themselves are cleaned everyday and the whole place feels well looked after. Almost all of the... More

We have visited Kefalonia many times and this was our first stay in a boutique hotel which met with all our high expectations. Mario (the owner), Theo and Tashula the more prominent members of staff were attentive and professional making the whole holiday first class. Our week spent at Villa Costa was simply wonderful, the excellent and well presented food... More

Having just returned from Villa Costa with my husbandI can honestly say this is one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. The rooms and ground of the hotel are immaculate and Mario and his team keep everything running smoothly. Six rooms all have sea views and the town is only a short walk away. The food was superb...

Villa Costa is definitely one of the most beautiful hotels we have ever stayed at. I am not one for writing reviews and never have done so before, however our holiday was so enjoyable that I felt compelled to put "pen to paper". All of the reviews regarding this fabulous hotel really do "tell it as it really is". Mario... More
