Villa Forestata is situated near the exceptionally beautiful beaches of Petani, Platia Ammos and Myrtos of the Kouvalates residential area in Livadi, Palliki.
The Villa Forestata apartment, is placed 7 km away from Lixouri of Kefalonia, inside of the Foresti’s family old farm, and is waiting to give you hospitality with love and make you have unforgivable vacations in the beautiful Kefalonia.

You can find any supplies necessary for a comfortable and pleasant stay like linen, furniture, cupboards etc., as well as electric appliances, plus a TV set , internet access and of course an air conditioner.
The block of flats is situated at an exceptionally peaceful area at Kouvalata, a village of only a few farmhouses.
Around it there is a large orchard full of olive trees and various local fruit trees, absolutely suitable for families with children. There is also a barbecue for grilling meat or fish alone with your family or with other residents you may know while staying in 'Villa Forestata'.
Its main advantage is its location with a wonderful view to the open horizons all around.
Just below there is the Livadi plain, north of which you can find a reserve of migratory birds, like herms and various other species. From there to the east you can have a spectacular view to the edge of Argostoli gulf (Fanari Lassis area) as well as the mountains across it where Faraklata, Delinata, Farsa and other villages are located.
To the South you can find the Palliki southern clay plain up to the Xi and Mega Lakkos beaches with their special red sand and the small island of Vardiani.
Last but not least, on its west side you can see the half-mountainous area of northern Palliki with its green idyllic villages. Many of our visitors have been completely amazed at that view and they have been talking about the absolute peace and quiet they experienced during their stay in “Villa Forestata”.

The Ionian Islands region


Kefalonia is the largest of this group of islands. This is one island that far exceeds its reputation and really is as pretty as a picture or should we say the picture.The island is a natural wonderland with many aims waiting to be discovered. There are underground lakes and limestone caves and all along its 250 kms of coast azure sea meets limestone cliffs or pine clad hills in a wash of turquoise at an abundance of small undeveloped bays.
Many of the long sandy south and east coast beaches have grown into small and sophisticated beach resorts but with no building over 3 stories permitted maintaining a pleasant atmosphere. Opportunities for cycling, walking, windsurfing, riding and caving will keep the active busy. For a more leisurely pace you can hire a small boat and take off to discover your own beach.
For those with an interest in the past, Kefalonia has a diverse history which can be explored in the Museum in Argostoli the capital.
The Kefalonians themselves are known for their hospitality.
The Kefalonia / Lixouri-Havdata area
The group of our apartments and studios is placed nearby Lixouri just few minutes away by car.
Le strutture degli appartamenti si trovano 7km di distanza da Lixouri e hanno una meravigliosa vista sul mare in un terreno di quasi 200 ettari. E' un'occasione vivere a contatto con la natura in un ambiente di serenita' e tranquilita'.
Lixouri is very traditional, offering all the amenities and facilities of a working town. In the main square you will find a large selection of snack and coffee bars. A number of pedestrianized side streets offering numerous shops, taverns and snack-bars.
Argostoli is the capital of the island very closed to Lixouri.There you can find most of the nightlife, cafes, the cinema, banks, bus station and harbor. Sami is the main harbor of the island where you will find many bars and taverns as well. Fiscardo offers the perfect idyll, it is small and very cozy, and so is Ag Efimia, Skala and Poros.
