Villa Nireaus, Sami, Kefalonia

Set amongst the pine woodland that tops the descent into the fishing village of Sami, this outstanding location offers superb views over Sami Bay with Ithaki in the far distance and the lush hillsides embracing it on three sides. Electric gates ensure that stray members of the local goat herds don’t stray into the grounds, which are well tended, planted with flowering shrubs and citrus trees and with a neatly mown lawn. The light and spacious villa is furnished in an easy contemporary style throughout. Location It’s less than a 5 min drive down the hill into Sami where tavernas and cafes line the waterfront, prime position, in the morning, to sip a freddo cappuccino and watch the sailing boats come and go and to check the ferries are running on schedule. Although Sami does have a beach of its own beyond the harbour, it really is well worthwhile making the trip round to the next bay to Antisamos beach. Here pine cloaked mountains drop steeply down to the sea with their colours reflected in the crystal clear waters and edged by a crescent of white pebble beach. There are some sunbeds and a taverna backing the beach for lunch or a refreshing drink. Along the coast immediately north of Sami are several small coves and a little further on, the beach of Agia Paraskevi has water sport facilities.
