With excellent sea views, this beautifully designed and furnished villa provides guests with modern, stylish accommodation in sought-after Trapezaki.
The small village of Trapezaki lies between the harbour at Pessada and the village of Lourdas on the southern shores of Kefalonia. This coastline boasts some of the island's best sandy beaches and we recommend booking a hire car with your villa to explore the area.
Set just above Trapezaki beach, Villa Petalida is a smart villa providing cool, airy accommodation which makes the most of its peaceful setting. The ground floor living space is open plan with lofty timber ceilings and a modern kitchen area with pretty breakfast table and chairs. There is room to relax too, with two recliners and a comfy sofa through a stone archway.
Sliding glass doors give access from the living area onto the pool terrace which runs the full length of the villa. Here you can enjoy an al fresco lunch of Greek salad with locally-produced olive oil or stretch out on a sun lounger and laze by the pool.
The first of Villa Petalida's two bedrooms is the ground floor double complete with ensuite shower and w.c. The room has sliding glass doors which open directly onto the pool terrace. From the lounge, stone steps lead up to a large mezzanine twin bedroom suitable for children or adults and an ensuite bathroom with a shower and w.c.
Whether as a romantic week for two or a family holiday for up to four, Villa Petalida has earned consistently good feedback from customers and staff alike!
