About this property

Villakalimera - Charming traditional stone house -up to 6 People

Located in the typical greek village of Tselendata , surrounded by a forest of cypresses, Villakalimera is distinguished by its traditional stone houses’s character and charme.
Here you can relax in the several outdoor , articulated under the shadow of two apricot trees between cypresses and olive trees , just few steps from Foki beach . The house is spread over two floors: on the ground floor there is a large living room and kitchen; on the first floor there are two large bedrooms, with its own bathroom each .
Full equipped with facilities for barbecue , breakfast and lunch outdoors with friends ; for children to play , for reading under the trees, swaying lazily in the hammock.
Villakalimera is only 2 kilometers from Fiskardo, the lovely marina destination for the most experienced sailors and pleasure craft the most prestigious of the Mediterranean sea. Many small pubs and restaurants animate the picturesque sea front .
Villakalimera therefore has the double advantage to remain hidden from the more massive tourism but at the same time so close to Fiskardo to allow, to those who want ,to immerse themselves in the comings and goings of the many visitors that animate the picturesque harbor .
The welcome is guaranteed at Villakalimera by custodial staff that provides water and linen cleaning on arrival and departure of guests who stay there . It should be noted that the water on the island of Kefalonia is a precious good to be consumed with care and attention . It is stowed in the ancient cistern and is not drinkable but can be used for all needs: cleaning and cooking of visitors.
We wait for you and we are sure that you will spend happy hours and an unforgettable stay in opur woods and sea.

A blissful retreat
We booked Villa Kalimera at the last minute due to a French holiday being cancelled and were definitely not disappointed! If you love the old Greece this ancient village house is perfect and gives you the feeling that Pelagia might be drawing some water from the (locked ) well in the courtyard. Despite being traditional, Villa Kalimera has been rebuilt internally and has every comfort with good showers and a compact but good kitchen. It is furnished beautifully with antiques and a combination of whites and blues giving a bright mediterranean feel. It was lovely to have breakfast and lunch under the bougainvillea with huge stripey butterflies perusing the flowers nearby and the terrace with several different seating areas and refreshing pool was perfect. It's a 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to Foki beach for a sublime early morning swim and Fiskado with its array of restaurants is just further round the corner.

Gorgeous villa, perfect family holiday.
Thank you so much Marzia and Piero. We all loved staying in your beautiful villa and really didn't want to leave. Its a perfect mix of traditional and modern, clean, light and had everything we needed. Short drive to Foki beach and fab restaurant (don't walk with young kids in summer) I preferred Emplisi beach. Fiskardo is stunning. The girls were ecstatic when the kittens appeared with their mum and as you know spent hours playing with them all. We will always remember your kind hospitality and Villakalimera and hope to return one day. Hodgson family (Thank you for the lovely beach bag) x

A lovely relaxing break
We really enjoyed our time at Villa Kalimera - Piero and Marzia have designed a beautiful outside garden and seating areas around the small pool where everyone can find a place to relax and read and enjoy the day. There was always a lovely spot for sun or shade or both with plenty of outside eating spaces for all our meals. We were a family of four and we all had space. The kitchen had all we needed and Piero and Marzia were great hosts. We were surprised by all the small wild kittens in the area but after a few days got used to them in and out of the house and enjoyed watching them lounge in the sun. It was a great break and a beautifully and authentic stylish home. We know Piero is hoping to install air conditioning and with that he would have 5 stars from us.

Why they chose this property

I hang out the island of Kefalonia For many years , Fiskardo particularly. I arrived almost 35 years ago when the houses were still all white and free camping still permitted. Slowly I watched tourism and facilities to accommodate grow. There where many buldings partially destroyed in the past by an earthquake and one by one they has been renovated . So was Villakalimera that appeared to me immediately beautiful: surrounded by a forest of cypress and so close to the amazing beach of Foki. The house has been declared 'traditional home' by the greek government and therefore protected in its forms and details.

What makes this property unique

The finishing and details are left as much as possible related to its past: the ancient cistern, the entrance to the lane facing to the village track, the small blue windows. The interiors are simple and there are mixed objects collected by the owner over many trips in Africa. The renovation of the house, built in 2006, has endowed it with important works in order to make anti-seismic reinforcement structures. The respect of the traditional forms of rural house did not prevent, however, to provide it with every modern comfort.
