Barefoot Contessa

Great spot. Handy having the bar/taverna right in front. Host empties the trash and brings fresh towels daily. Only disappoin**ent was that the sun beds shown in the photos are not included with the room rate. Beds in the room left us with a bit of a back ache as well.

We absolutely loved our stay at Barefoot Contessa, waking up to the most beautiful view of the sea and mountains and listening to the waves of the sea it was truly perfect. We had everything we needed in the apar**ent apart from a toaster, but we didn’t miss it. You’re moments away from a beautiful beach and a few tavernas and little bars. There are more up the hill which is a bit of a trek but having a car allowed us to explore everywhere much more easily. The only negatives we had were on arrival the shower had hairs still in it but as it was very late we didn’t get this rectified as we both wanted to shower before bed, it didn’t look like it had been cleaned very well. Towels are changed daily which is great but quite a few of the towels were frayed/stained. The only thing we think that would also need improving cleaning wise is having the apar**ent floor mopped half way during the week as it did get dirty when staying for the week. Other than those small negatives everything else was perfect and we would most definitely come and stay again. This was our first time in Kefalonia but won’t be our last!

The property was perfect for our needs having visited Lourdas a number of times, we know the area well. So close to the beach and local bars and tavernas. The property is very tastefully furnished and extremely clean. Towels changed daily, bins emptied daily and bedding once during our weeks stay. Would definitely, without hesitation, stay here again.

Location of the accommodation was absolutely perfect along one of the best stretch of beaches on Kefalonia. The apar**ent itself was immaculate with everything you could want for a comfortable holiday. The staff at both the apar**ent and the beach bar were welcoming and friendly and went out of their way to offer help. The availability of food and drinks served at the bar was extensive and everything we ate and drank was freshly cooked and delicious as well as beautifully presented. We will definitely return!

The apar**ent was very spacious and clean with towels changed daily. The views were panoramic as described and everything we needed was close at hand...especially the beach which was merely steps away ! Our panoramic view though meant we had 2 flights of stairs to climb so not suitable for those with mobility issues. There were also some very young children in other apar**ents in spite of the website saying 'children over 12 welcomed'. We will definitely be back!

Barefoot contessa was a perfect place to stay. Location was opposite the beach and behind Hemingway Rooms were spacious with kitchen area and bathrooms were reasonable. Shower at times felt claustrophobic with limited movement Bedroom had space to move. Housekeeping ladies were fantastic and did a great job, flexible and approachable, would help at a drop of a hat! This is not a 5 star hotel so do not expect linen to be changed daily which didn’t bother me at all, however would have liked the floors to be swept and bed just made for the day. Apart from that, totally recommend staying here! Even had a very cute little sitting area outside of each apar**ent.. I loved it here! Would suggest residents be offered free sun lounge and umbrellas out the front..

This is an excellent place to stay, the people who run it and the bar/restaurant nearby are friendly and super accommodating- even waiting for me to arrive for check in after my flight was delayed. The place itself is big and clean and comfortable. The best thing about it for me was the fact that the beach with cheap say beds was 2 mins from the room, it really helped ease us into holiday mode as soon as we got there. The food in the area was great as well. It was a really wonderful stay

It was amazing. Confortable, relaxing and very convenient. And lovely owner !

Nothing too relaxing very bad experience. If you choose that apar**ent in Lourdas you will get a minimum of equipment, bar very expensive and redness from owners. We ordered Greek salad but they give us without oil and olive no taste only veg Shame on you. The first time we have something like this. I do not know maybe you have a problem with people like us. The beach is beautiful and the seawater is amazing and the view is unforgettable with the mountain in the back of your place but you can get better accodomnetion in Lourdas than this. For the sunbed, you pay € 8 per day if you use it. Other than accommodation have or for free. Only one toaster for the whole 10 rooms??? Glass limits available. One little square kitchen towel to clean your dishes?? Most important the Air conditioning old fashion very old-fashioned and if you use makes horrible noise! the kitchen area yes has its windows but it's very warm, the owner should think about it. No that's enough. We could give more, that it's our opinion. We will be back with no option but no barefoot contessa We get information from different accordaminations and we notice the better place for that money. We travel a lot and we can compare, it poorly. Internet rubbish:(
