Katelios Studios
(Apartments in Katelios)
 | 9/10 |
  
We stayed at Katelios Studios for 2 weeks and it was our best holiday ever. The owners were very helpful and friendly. The studios were kept very clean (at least 4 changes of bedding and towels during our stay). The pool is very clean and basic snacks/drinks are available from the poolside bar. The weekly barbeque is a must the food is great. Katelios Studios is a great base in a quiet resort for a relaxing holiday. | |

Hi everyone We stayed here in 2004 on our 2nd trip to Kefalonia, what can i say it was the best holiday ever.
If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the place to stay.
Aris and his family are so welcoming and friendly, and cannot do enough to make you feel welcome :)
The apartments are clean and the pool is lovely, I fail to see how anyone could be disapointed if they were to stay here
I am so excited we are going back on the 10th of june and I can't wait, we have left it far to long
We have been to other islands, but have always felt a little disapointed that we had not returned, and definitly did not enjoy it quite as much as we have here.
Roll on the 10th  | |

| Ari, Loula and thier son George are still there and are very friendly.and their BBQ night is a must. The apartments are clean, all face the sea in the distanace and all are sun facing which is great when sitting out having a drink or two. The pool is clean and in the sun all day, its all very quiet and relaxing and you can stroll down to the beach in 15 mins to the front and there are some very good places to eat and drink. No night clubs or fast foods which suited us. Only a few gift shops/ mini markets. We hired a car and went around the island but we liked Katelios the best. It felt safe, quite and at our pace. The weather good have been a bit better there were 3 days of thunder storms but we were told the week before there were none. We would go again but may be a week before 19th Sep. As we were leaving the place had about another week to go then the whole place would close for the winter. | ||||||||||

My wife and I used this web-site to make a choice of accomodation in Katelios and we were not let down at all. The Katelios Studios remain very good value for money and the owners provided a very friendly welcome. Quite how this web-site marks it as 4/10 I cannot imagine as everyone who has commented on it seems to like the place. More like 9/10 I would say. | ||||||||||

| My husband Chris and I, together with daughter and son in law visited this magical, beautiful island in September. I'm almost lost for words in what to say about this place and the people we met. The owners of the studios, Ari and Loula, along with their son George, were so friendly and helpful. Their bbq nights were brilliant! Gerasimos (he's 82, lives in the village and comes to the bbq every Wednesday) dances all night and is a real character.I even learned from Mandy (an expat)a Greek dance - she's a great teacher! The food is all home cooked and I noted in another website someone going on about Loula's cakes - they were right - her walnut cake is mouth-watering (I badgered her for the recipe!!)Go to the bakery - it's a definite MUST. Their goodies are out of this world and prices very reasonable. The people who own it are wonderful and we made great friends with them. So much so, that we popped in every night for a chat with the grandmother Doula, her granddaughter Mytro and her boyfriend Christos, which resulted in (a) Doula baking us a cake and (b) being invited one evening to their home for supper - Greek hospitality just knocks me out - can you just imagine that happening in this country - I don't think so!!! If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet holiday, this is the place for you, although everyone chats away to everyone else, so it's not a boring place by any means. We will definitely go back and after 8 Greek islands, this is the only one I have felt so strongly about. Don't hesitate - make that booking NOW !!!! I know you will have a wonderful time. | ||||||||||

| My husband Les (who really didn't want to come to Kefalonia and arrived on sufferance just to keep the peace!! 7 years ago) & I made our first of 4 visits over a period of 6 years need I say more, I will, this is the only place that we ever returned to again and again each time wishing were were staying just a little bit longer. The locals became our friends and it is good to return and be greeted by name even after a 2 year break made it the happiest holidays that we have ever enjoyed. Les had been suffering ill health for the last 4 years but even though it was quite a long journey for him he still wanted to go back to see his old friend Arry to enjoy his tales and to walk around the village of Katelio and to visit other seaside towns in our hire car, the views across the island are spectacular and everyone welcomes you with friendly courtesy. Sadly this year I will be returning without Les, he passed away January but I am bringing his eldest son to Katelio as he has been courious to know just what the attraction was that caused us to want to return again & again. Perhaps Les is chatting to Jimmy on a parralel plain (anyone who had been going to Katelios would have known this super man, he was the one with natural air conditioning bar on the front near the funny little harbour) he has also gone now a few years ago, I hope whoever takes/has taken the bar over will try to keep it's quaint old way. But like anywhere else Katelios is growing and younger owners are taking over, but so far the village has remained quiet and slow paced. Arry & Loula I can't wait to see you again.

| last summer my mother and i took our first holiday together. we stayed in appartments that did not have a pool or bar and were extreemly pleased to find that the Ferderigos family,of the neighbouring complex katelios studios were more than happy for us to join their clan, the friendly atmosphere created by the family and friends and the wonderfull food makes barbecue night one not to be missed! the island is truely magnificient and sea breeze, where Iannis will hire you a small boat, is a perfect way to view the coast, see local towns or find your own secluded beaches. we are returning in april, and i can't wait to go back and see all the dear friends we have made in beatifull Cephallonia. | ||||||||||

| My daughter and I visited Kefalonia for the first time in August last year. Alhough we didn't stay at Katelios Studios it was our closest pool and bar so we spent quite a lot of time there. We were made so welcome by the owner Aris and his wife Lula and two sons Vagellis and Yourgas that we went back again in October and stayed there! The apartments were very clean and well maintained and contained everything that we needed. There were some great barbecue nights with dancing and wonderful food (Lula cooked vegetarian especially for my daughter and myself). We are going back to stay at Katelios Studios again in April and are counting the days! | ||||||||||
