Minies is not really a resort in the true sense of the word. Rather it is a quiet, totally uncommercialised location with an unspoilt beach and a small fishing harbour - the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday away from the crowds.
In addition to its own little beach, just a few kilometres away at Ammes there is another fantastic but much larger beach with a beach bar and sunbeds. There are also several other lovely beaches in the area, each just a short drive away.
For shopping, wining and dining - the beautiful little village of Sovranata has a good selection of restaurants, tavernas and shops and is easily accessible from Minies. Or for those looking for something a touch livelier, why not spend an evening in the bustling resort of Lassi with its great nightlife and busy bars and restaurants? We can also recommend a visit to Argostoli, the sophisticated cultural centre of Kefalonia, which again is close by.
So if you're looking for a retreat that allows you to have the best of all worlds - we think you'll find it in Minies.
