Home description
Avisania Villa is a brand-new country house (completed in October 2006) and ready for the first season 2007. It is situated in the small and typical Greek village of Vassilopoulata: a peaceful and tranquil village, approx. 5 km form the picturesque yachting port of Agia Efimia, embedded in the high mountains of Pylaros.
The famous beach of Myrtos, definitely the most beautiful beach of Kefalonia, is only 10 min drive form the villa. Surrounding Agia Efimia there are numerous clear blue pebble coves and beaches, ideal for snorkelling. The location is also ideal for nature lovers and hikers. You can walk for example the main road to Agia Efimia. You will pass through an old traditionl village, above the valley of Pylaros and facing Agia Efimia and the sea. Or you can leave the main road and take one of the several paths going through the valley to Agia Efimia. You can also walk to the beautiful monastery of Themata (approx. 4 km), which offers spectacular views.

The Ionian Islands region
Kefalonia is the largest of the 7 Ionian islands. It maintains its own individual character and is untainted by mass toursism. The island is full of contrasts: high, wild mountains in the centre, green valleys and long sand beaches in the south, dramatically dropping cliff coast-line in the west, cypress scenery and charming ports in the north, olive groves and small flint bays with crystal-clear water in the east. It is the perfect place to swim, walk, enjoy glorious vistas, visit historical sites and make new friendships.
