Aristomenis Studios ::...:: Lourdas ::...:: Kefalonia

		Alison Baldry (May 05, 2011)
Just wondered if anyone could help with a couple of questions. My friend and I have booked to holiday at the Aristomenis studios in September this year. Just wondering if any excursions of the island run from Lourdas and from these apartments, or if any other tours run from here. Also, does anyone know what the bus service or taxi service is like to get us back from the beach to the apartments (know the climb is rather steep) but very much looking forward to the holiday, cant wait.

Stayed for two weeks in September. The hosts Steve & Eleni were very welcoming & friendly and couldn't do enough for you. The studios are set in gorgeous grounds and the views are breathtaking. The rooms are kept spotless and this is the perfect place to relax. I recomend that you hire a car to explore this lovely island. The beach is a fair walk away and you need to be fit walking back up the hill to the studios. But this is a gem of a place well worth the visit.

Just had an excellent week at Aristomenis. Very friendly place, great pool, easy access to main street. The walk to the beach is a 'healthy' stroll and back up taken at leisure. Car hire was no problem, although probably better to have for longer to get the cheaper rates, even if you don't actually need it all your stay. The island has some great places to visit. This has got to be one of the nicest places to stay.

We have just got back, and loved it!!! Steve and Eleni were lovely people who couldn't do enough for you. Steve's vegetarian breakfasts were yummy. Stuart (my husband) enjoyed watching the world cup with Steve. We hired a car and went around the island, saw some beautiful places. Had some meals in some great tavernas, the Olive lounge and Andromeda being the best. We will be going back next June if we can.

My husband Fred and I were in Kefalonia in May of this year and stayed at the Aristomenis Studios. Our apartment was typical Greek style, very clean and comfortable. Maid service was excellent. Eleni was about to hire my husband as gardener/car washer until he quit when he heard he had to start as 5 am!!! We had great fun at the apartments, met some nice people, even though they were English (I jest). The beautiful gardens were very well tended. The highlight was the jasmine at the entrance. sniff . mmmmm. Our only was we felt the drink at the poolside a bit pricey which made us drink more in the apartment than at the poolside! Steve and Eleni work very hard at making the studios what they are and deserve a visit.

My husband and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday at the Aristomenis Studios. We booked last minute and were unsure what to expect but we were overwhelmed and had the most fantastic time. At home we regularly dine out and were not disappointed by the quality of food available in the local area. Steve and his family worked really hard to ensure that our time away was as relaxing as possible and took the time to make us feel extremely welcome. The rooms were of a very good standard, clean and comfortable and we would not hesitate to book there again. The pool area and grounds were well maintained and Steve and his family took a pride in the appearance of all areas of the complex. We met a lot of really lovely people and enjoyed their company. The barbecue night was fantastic and we have very fond memories that we will never forget. A fantastic holiday 10/10.

My son Mark and I have just returned from Arsistomenis after a last minute weeks holiday in August. The apartments were fantastic, spotlessly clean. The pool area was also kept beautiful and it was not uncommon for Steve the owner to be working at the maintaining the pool area until midnight. Nothing was ever a bother to Steve and his family. Steve and his family worked very long hours and were always willing to be helpful when asked. The bar around the pool area was very intimate and did not require any waiter/waitress service. As even while sunbathing the bar was approx 12 paces from it's furthest point. The toilet areas at the pool were also immaculate kept. It has been one of the most wonderful holidays we have been on and we have travelled far and wide including most of Europe, USA, and the far East. I would not hesitate to book again at these apartment and hopefully I will return with my whole family next year. How anyone could ever complain about Steve and his family or the apartments is beyond me. Within the week we meet and enjoyed the company of meny fantastic and interesting people and both my son who is only 21yrs have said that we had the time of our lives. Lordas is beautiful even though it is hilly and well worth a visit Well done and thank you to Steve and his family Thank you to all the lovely people we met and shared their companionship Missing you all Gillian and Mark

What a super holiday! Steve, Eleni and Sherry are quiet friendly people who do not impose themselves on you, but enjoy talking to you and love to see you having a super holiday. The whole place has a super atmosphere, calm and peaceful with people enjoying their holiday. Studios and complex well looked after, with superb views out to sea. The barbeque is good to go to, Steve, Eleni and Sherry made my birthday the best at this venue. Food at the bar is good, breakfasts really special! Cocktails really good! A steep incline to Kanelli beach, but well worth it, sandy, a clear sea, shallow for quite a way. Only one person was moaning whilst we were there and everyone could not understand why. I suppose you always get one!! It was one of the best holidays we have been on and we all cried when we left!! Looking forward to going again, which is unsual for us, as we normally try different places. We had a super time, met a lot of lovely people and had a good rest. We were in Room 301 as well for a fortnight. A lot of good tavernas for eating around as well. Would certainly recommend this to anyone. Shouldn't really as I may not be able to get in next year!!

My husband and I have just spent a week at the Aristomenis Studios, it is a fabulous location, we had pool and seaview from the room (301). Everything is spotless, the rooms, pool and grounds, Steve and Elani work very hard from morning to night and it is a credit to them (and the cleaner who works very hard too). We hired a car for 3 days and enjoyed getting out and about. Lourdas itself is fairly quiet with limited things to do, the beach is super and an ejoyable walk down hill, the walk back up however is rather gruelling! There are several tavernas within easy walking distance. Steves breakfast specials, especially the pancakes are fantastic. We had a couple of days by the pool and ate at the bar, prices for food were good but drinks more expensive than other places (small bottle mythos beer 2.50 euro, 0.5L water 1euro) The BBQ night on Thursday is well worth the 10 euro each, food is great and dancing very entertaining with a chance to join in!!. A lovely holiday, quiet and relaxing, no problems with noise. Thank you

Me and my partner just spent the last week of June 2009 at these apartments and were pleasently impressed. They were spacious, modern and kept very clean. The pool ( water temperature was perfect to spend hours in there )and bar area are ideal for just chilling and relaxing if that is your thing although we had a jeep and went off round the Island. The bar prices are on a par with surrounding tavernas, tried our best to work our way through the extensive cocktail list , I missed it by a couple of drinks, needed 10 days there and I would have cracked it. The BBQ night is a good laugh , food was great , should have tried Steve's breakfast menu, missed out there. We didn't really get to know Steve and Elena that well, shared a few conversations , but they work very hard and were very friendly and helpful. They have a good sense of humour and seemed to make everyone's stay a joy. Good luck to them both. I've been to numerous Greek Islands before and these apartments are the best I have personally stayed at and would recommend them to one and all. Views over to Zante spectacular, views to the mountains also impressive ( when clouds aren't covering them ) You will need a car to get about, it's quite a steep walk down to beach if you want to get about but nearest tavernas are walking distance. cheers for a good week Phil and Amanda

Dont know why there are some bad comments on Aristomenis Studios. We have just got back from a weeks stay there, and have no complaints whatsoever. We used to live in Vlachata village,so returned to have our marriage blessed.even though our 5 year old grandaughter wasnt well, Steve and Eleni couldnt have been better hosts. We even got a vase of fresh flowers from the garden and a bottle of champagne and cahampagne flutes in our room! We will return there again,as we fell in love with Kefalonia some years ago, we cant let a summer go by without a visit to the island,it is beautiful.

The apartments were very good, only spoiled by our arrival where the rep had failed to arrange with the owners an earlier arrival timedespite an assurance from our first rep in Lassi. We arrived -as agreed- at approx 11am, but our room was NOT cleaned until after 4pm, thus wasting 5 hours. We were the first arrival, having spent the first week in Lassi, therefore arrived FIVE hours before the latest UK arrivals....so when we left, why was our room one of the first to be cleaned? we couldn't even keep the room until noon. Sadly, although Steve worked very hard, we found the service from his 'team' dour and flat.

Hi Coming here on the 21st of september for 2 weeks. We usually go to Zante but fancied a change this year, but no doubt will be jumping the ferry across to see out friends while we are so close. Can anybody tell me if i need to bring a kettle with me or is one supplied? Also is there a cash point in the resort? Any info will be great IE best places to eat drink and buy bread etc
