Waterfront holiday rentals in Agia Effimia

What a wonderful experience ! The agent Dimitra was so responsive and the owners Maria and George own the Rotsis bakery up the road. Maria came every morning with fresh omelettes ( mine were shrimp) amazing local yoghurt , warm bread and pastries and fresh espressos. Nothing was too much and we were very spoiled. The location is perfect ! Its own private beach and a two minute walk along the water front to the port and amazing restaurants. Absolutely stunning in every way !!!!! Thank you Maria , George , Dimitra and Vasiliki who works at the bakery for all your warm kindness and care. Michael and Alana Hyde Australia

Amazing place. Views from the rooftop are incredible and inside very spacious. Located right on water surrounded by restaurants. Vera was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend.

This was the most beautiful place that we could ever have hoped to have spent our honeymoon. The setting and studio are stunning and with easy reach of everything that we needed. The pool area was wonderful place to spend time with it's - out of this world view! Anna arranged our taxi transfers to and from the port so we had no worries on getting to her studio and greeted us on arrival. Everything and more had been thought of for our stay and we were welcomed with an array of provisions to get us started. We loved the ingredients that were either made by Anna or family and used them in preparing salads.We have never stayed somewhere that has been so well equipped, immaculate and the thoughtful extra touches. Anna was so helpful and knowledgable and gave us a huge amount of information, what to visit, how to book with local boat companies and local restaurants etc. We felt very lucky to have found this gem of a place and will return to stay and see the lovely Anna and her husband.

Отличное расположение, вдали от шума, до порта и остановки автобуса в аэропорт 10 минут, рядом есть место для купания. Квартира чистая, удобные кровати, чистое белье,в кухне минимум необходимое для приготовления еды. Хозяева всегда на связи, помогают советами. Цена соответствует качеству. Рекомендую.

Ivana and Dionisis are fantastic hosts. Their accommodations are spotless with high-end linens and their restaurant serves wonderful traditional Greek food at reasonable prices. A snorkel is a must to explore the crystal clear coves right where they are located. There is a fair bit of traffic on the main road, but the general area is remote with fantastic villages and authentic Greek traditions, warmth and caring. I would definitely stay here again. I wish they had a two-bedroom to bring my daughter. Mostly, these people are so warm you feel like you are at home.

Gianni’s place is superb. Better even than the photos, exceptional use of space and standout stocked kitchen made it comfortable and delightful beyond, local touches and incredibly thoughtful hosts from the greeting to the check ins throughout the stay, unbeatable location, cush outdoor space, and so much else. I simply can’t wait to come back!!

Great communications with clear arrangements for meeting us on arrival, after the journey from the airport. Good local restaurants and a supermarket/ bakery 5 minutes walk. Also 5 minutes walk from the underground lakes. 1.5km from Sami on foot - you can stroll there and back for a huge choice of bars, shops and restaurants. The apartment itself was great. Welcome wine, juice and water in the fridge and 4 coffee pods with UHT creams. Butter and jam portions also in the fridge. Decent parking around the apartment as well. I would highly recommend. Great for two - we had our son on the sofa bed, so can accommodate 4. If you see Piggy the Dog, say hello. He had the uncanny ability to walk us to the nearest restaurant where he then enjoyed the leftovers.

Schöne und saubere Unterkunft in toller Lage. Einzig die Straße war nachts manchmal etwas laut, da hier getunte Fahrzeuge immer wieder Vollgas geben. Dafür kann aber die Gastgeberin und die Unterkunft nichts und ändert auch nichts an der guten Gesamtbewertung!

Beautiful rustic cottage with panoramic views of the north east coastline, just a short drive from Nebolos and Madraikas. The interior is comfortable and thoughtfully furnished including air conditioning, local products, and a cafetiere. If you're looking for a peaceful place to unwind after a day exploring Zakynthos' beaches and tavernas then this it. Fantastic value for money.

Lovely apartment, exactly like photos and description, that makes a great base while staying in Vathy. The upside down living arrangement makes full use of location allowing for a gorgeous patio area and great watching platform for all the yachts that moor right outside the apartment. As others have said you are on the main road which at the time of our visit wasn’t very busy, but had usual port side activities, it’s close to the centre and great for taxi pick ups. If you like being close to facilities and enjoy people watching it’s a perfect place to stay. We had a few minor maintenance issues we report, ie light in bathroom, which Christina responded to and sorted straight away without any inconvenience to us. Would highly recommend.

What a beautiful place to call home for a week! Everything looked just like the photos and it's always really helpful to have as many photos as this listing does. Breakfasts in the sunshine on the balcony were a highlight of the trip! We enjoyed the local food and drinks left for us, it was a lovely gesture. The house was spotlessly clean and we found the beds very comfortable. We appreciated the emails before we travelled with local suggestions and useful house information so that we could find everything we might need. The town is lovely with more open in early October than we had anticipated so we thoroughly enjoyed all of the loacel restaurants and amenities without it being crowded. We found it to be a great location to visit the rest of the island and we always parked outside the house. I highly recommend this home!!

We are a family of five and we all agreed that the house is a perfect size. We occupied 3 of the bedrooms leaving one unused. The bathrooms were a really good size and well equipped with a thoughtful variety of toiletries, and there is a well stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook or bake should you wish to. We thoroughly enjoyed the two verandas/terraces - the sunrises here are spectacular. The location was fabulous for swimming, snorkelling, seeing other parts of Kefalonia, and resting. Eleni was incredibly responsive, very flexible with our arrival and departure and very informative regarding the locality. We will definitely love to return. Thank you Eleni!

Absolutely beautiful villa - sadly we were only staying for two nights and could quite happily have stayed longer. So clean and extremely well equipped with manicured garden. Stunning.

Stunning villa with a view that steals the show. All round a very well equipped property. Cracking beach with snorkelling, cliff jumping, and free sun loungers just a short walk away.

A beautiful place. Very clean and tidy. Great host who welcomed us with lots of amenities and essentials. Loved the swimming pool and the outdoor area. Definitely a 5 stars stay and would be coming back for sure. Thank you Elena.

Our hosts were wonderful and so helpful. They booked our taxi for us who met us at the airport and knew exactly where to go. Galini and Dimitris met us at the apartment and showed us around when we arrived. The location and view is amazing. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. The apartment is simple and comfortable for a short stay. They also have a daily cleaning service We would come back and stay longer.

We stayed for a week at Kostas's place with two children under 4. Kostas's place was perfect for us. Everything we needed was provided for including toys for the beach! Kostas is a great host providing incredible local knowledge - everywhere we went and ate was recommended by him and all were very good. The house is extremely comfortable with all amenities in good condition and all your needs catered for. There is a small beach just outside the house which was quite private and suitable for small children to play. We would recommend a stay at Kostas's place without hesitation

This was the perfect location to explore the island of Kefalonia from. The accommodations were spacious, clean and both decks had fabulous views of the sea. It is located in a quite location with comfortable beds and it was stocked with all the necessities we required. The host was easy to communicate with and very punctual in filling any requests. Mrs. Sophia was lovely and kept the unit very clean for us.

Perfect Location . The view from our balcony was stunning! The room was clean. Housekeeping checked in daily. We would love to come back once again.

In summation, Maria Thalia's Airbnb is a haven of beauty, luxury, and convenience that offers an enchanting escape from the ordinary. The exquisite interiors, complemented by captivating architecture, create an environment that speaks to both aesthetics and functionality. Its proximity to the main beach is a privilege that sets it apart, providing us with easy access to the island's natural splendor. The hospitality extended by our hostess was the proverbial cherry on top. Her guidance, recommendations, and genuine warmth transformed our stay into an experience that transcended traditional hospitality. We left Maria Thalia's Airbnb not only with memories of a beautiful stay but with a sense of having been truly cared for. Our deepest gratitude to Maria Thalia for curating such an exceptional retreat, and to our hostess for embodying the spirit of gracious hosting. Our stay was a testament to the fact that a perfect vacation will definitely stay there in our next visit.

The spacious ground floor apartment is an amazing place for a vacation. The apartment is very modern, feels very new, spotlessly clean, with a lot of love that has gone into making this apartment a home from home. 1 minute walk to the sea, 2 minutes walk to some amazing restaurants by the sea. The apartment had everything you would need for a truly amazing vacation. 5 stars plus! Hoping to return next year!

Marianne's place was utterly delightful, a calm, peaceful oasis whilst not being isolated. The apartment was clean, tidy and had all of the amenities we needed. It is located in a block of serviced apartments but it doesn't feel overlooked or crowded. The beach opposite has a narrow shingle beach and has crystal clear, calm water and it was lovely to spend some time there. It is also not far from Antisamos beach and we also went to Myrtos beach a couple of times. We ate out in Sami, where there are lots of restaurants along the waters edge and is around a 5 minute drive but I believe you can also walk along the beach to get there. Litsa gave us loads of helpful advice & tips on where to visit and places to eat. Kefalonia is a stunning island and we would absolutely love to stay there again.

Très bel endroit, on y dort parfaitement tant il est paisible.

Athena’s apartment was wonderful, spacious, comfortable and a stone’s throw from the beach with many options for food and drink nearby. The area was peaceful and safe and was a perfect base for exploring the island. I’d like to make a special mention for the wonderful Yianna the property manager who was super helpful, responsive and went out of her way to make sure I felt at home. I’d thoroughly recommend staying here. I’ll be back!
