The location and the villa are perfect for a quiet relaxed holiday. Enough far from the crowd places but still near to almost everything: local places to visit, restaurants, tavernas, bars...I think that the pictures accurately reflect the property. There is also a beautiful beach within a few minutes walk where we enjoyed an early morning stroll. We found the people of Katelios very friendly and the local food tasty. We also liked their local wines, you have to try them while you are there. Do not hesitate to book this place and villa. Would highly recommend it to everybody (couples, families, retirees...)

The property was in an ideal place immaculate and well looked after. Very quiet neighborhood, near a village called Katelios with great tavernas and local food specialties. Also, Katelios Beach is only a 3-minute drive away(or 10 mins walk). We liked the charming Katelios and Skala, very friendly people and nice local cuisine. We enjoyed local specialties, beverages and sweets served in local popular tavernas and cafes. Overall the location and the villa are perfect for a quiet relaxed holiday. We will be returning next year!

I work a lot of hours and was in need of a breakaway and time to relax with my family. Great relaxed holiday at a nice quiet location. Nice terrace and pool, we enjoyed relaxing in the day and evening by the pool. We loved alternating days between exploring different places and beaches and having relaxing days at the villa. The villa and Katelios were perfect for my family. We loved the area and as well the places like Katelios, Skala, and Argostolion. We enjoyed visiting them often and tasting their local food, drinking some of the local wines, swimming, sunbathing, snorkeling, etc. Overall the villa is spotless, has more than everything you need, wonderful grounds, pool everything! Very satisfied that we booked this villa for our current holiday destination and we definitely book it again for the next year.

The location fully met our desires to where we could do day trips with ease and still have time to take advantage of the private pool and more local things to do. Set in beautiful countryside, the villa was very comfortable and private. We really enjoyed the outdoor spaces both around the BBQ, pool, and terrace! We had a great time there and were every day amazed by how lovely the places Skala and Katelios are ( both reachable within a short 5-10 minutes drive) The villa is cozy, has more than everything you need, wonderful grounds, pool everything! Very satisfied that we booked this villa for our current holiday destination and we definitely book it again for the next year.

Sitting on the balcony on what is our last day watching the clouds approach with promised thunder and rain is just as stunning as the sunny days we have enjoyed over the past two weeks in this beautiful villa on the outskirts of quaint Katelios. It’s our second time here - it won’t be our last. It’s cool, the beds are so soft, the pool delicious and the kitchen equipped for any recipe you may wish to try. There’s even an outdoor kitchen BBQ and pizza oven. You are looked after ( at a distance of course!), the cats make friends ( please feed them especially the little black and white lady who had lost meow). Hire a car from Kostas at Venus just down the road and explore this beautiful island from top to bottom. If I could- I’d stay!

The overall service from Agni was extremely good and I will definitely be travelling with you again and will recommend you to other people. The way you handled the fact that our originally booked villa was no longer available and you had to find us another villa, was exceptional. You even provide us with a rebate on the difference in cost within 2 days!! When we locked ourselves out of the villa one night, we called the out of hours number and within 10 minutes someone had arrived at the villa to let us in. We all agreed that the holiday was one of the best we have ever had. Thank you very much for everything, you have a great team. Doug

Comfortable, well equipped and secure villa with a great pool and terrace. The bedrooms are a little small but there is plenty of space overall. We didnt use the outdoor kitchen as it was too hot in August to contemplate burning wood or charcoal! Really useful having an "open all hours" mini market just down the road and a good quality restaurant (Persas) on the doorstep. Kato Katelios (15 minute walk) is a bustling little place with plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from. The bay is beautiful but the beach is quite shingly so we drove to sandy Kaminia beach just round the headland on a couple of days. An excellent holiday overall on a beautiful island.

Kefalonia is a beautiful island and Villa Ismini is in a superb location as near a few tavernas and a supermarket to stock up on essentials for our stay. The beach and beachside tavernas are only a short walk away. Villa Ismini is a lovely villa with a superb pool which our two kids (age 6 and 9) couldnt keep away from! It was very hot when we were there so the air conditioning in the bedrooms was much needed. A beautiful villa in a superb location.

In August 2017 we had a fantastic 9 day stay at Ismini Villa and would highly recommend it. The Villa is ideal for 4 people. It is perfect for a relaxing holiday close to excellent restaurants a mini market and a wonderful bakery. You can walk to the beach but we preferred the 5 minute drive. We would definitely visit again.

Semi detached house with all facilities one would ask for. Easy drive from Agostoli and easy to find. Lovely well kept pool and area. Good location close to Katelios beach with plenty of tavernas and good safe swimming. Free sunbeds to for Taverna users which is a bonus. Car hire would be essential if you wanted to more of Kefalonia.

Our third stay at Villa Ismini and as always a wonderful holiday. The villa is very well equipped and always clean and well maintained. The views are wonderful and it is in a quiet setting with a great pool area that gets the sun all day but has plenty of shade from the heat of the day too. A fifteen minute stroll down to the seafront and lovely tavernas. We would definitely recommend Villa Ismini to anyone wanting a quiet holiday in lovely surroundings and everything you need within walking distance if you do not want to rely on a car every day.
As always great service from the Agni Team and maintenance of the villa.

Vila Ismini is the most amazing villa. The villa was scrupulously clean on arrival and this was maintained throughout our stay by the excellent maid Ada. The caretaker Thimios too was excellent - meeting us on arrival (an early check in) and showing us around the house. He was very attentive to our needs and sorted problems very promptly. The views from the villa are wonderful and the surrounding area peaceful. There is a wonderful pool and an excellent and well equipped kitchen. It is conveniently near a mini market and a short (15 minute) walk into Katelios with beach bars and a wide range of restaurants.
Thank you to Ada Thimios at the villa who made our holiday special and to Megan at the Isle of Wight office who helped us when there was a threatened airstrike. The car hire rep was waiting for us in the arrivals hall and the only car hire company who has talked us through the car features routes and any road difficulties. An excellent service. The car was in excellent condition.

We had a fabulous week staying at Villa Ismini in Katelios. The Villa is immaculate and ideally suited for four adults. The spiral staircase gave our legs a great workout The villa was cleaned and fresh towels were provided every day. The village is small but has enough choice of bars and restaurants to visit over our weeks stay. Best food - Dreams beach bar. Delicious home cooked food. Fresh sardines caught that morning by the owners son. Best Bar - cocktails at the bar overlooking the beach with a view across to Zakynthos. Highlight of the holiday was seeing turtles in the harbor in Argostoli. Amazing. Thank you Agni Travel for a great holiday. Everything was exactly as described on the website.

We have just returned from a week in Villa Ismini on the beautiful island of Kefalonia. The villa was outstanding. Very clean and well equipped with a lovely outside area. There was a nice, friendly maid who came in and a very helpful caretaker. The resort of Katalios is small and friendly. There are loads of tavernas by the beach and a nice stretch of beach at the other end of the bay. The beach was quite stoney as you walk into the sea so beach shoes would be advisable. Only a short walk from the villa is a very well equipped mini market and a bit further along is a bakery. There are 2 tavernas within easy walking distance. We can recommend Jerrys where you can sit in the garden surrounded by beautiful plants and flowers. Kefalonia is beautiful and the villa is in a lovely setting with mountains on one side and the sea on the other. We can highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed. We are already planning another trip next year.

What a wonderful villa in a wonderful place. From the moment we were greeted by the owner and the maintenance man, to the huge hugs we received when leaving, it was two weeks of sheer bliss. Even the three cats made us welcome. A small mini-market provided all that we could want and the walk into the main village took us past villas and tavernas - even a melon field. This is the second year that we have stayed in Katelios and we are seriously thinking about returning next year - to the same villa. Thank you again - we would recommend Agni Travel to everyone.

We absolutely love Kefalonia having been twice before to Katelios. The couple who looked after the villa were just wonderful, so friendly and kind. The villa had everything we could possibly want for a good holiday. I have put a review on Trip advisor which I hope will be read by others.
