The large private infinity style swimming pool has a shallow end perfect for children but is also ideal for swimming. In addition to the large terrace downstairs and large balcony upstairs, the pool has a sun patio and there is a large garden with a variety of fruit and olive trees.
If you enjoy walking there are countless beaches and mountain tracks to explore.

The Ionian Islands region


Zola is a unique Kefalonian hideaway seaside village. With its own beautiful sandy beaches, coves, harbour and tavernas this is a real get-away-from-it-all location. Yet it’s idyllic location on the island is only 20mins drive from Lixouri and 30 mins to Argostoli or Sami. The beach of Aghia Kiriaki is only a 5 minutes drive down into the bay.
Wherever you are in Zola you have the most fantastic views. Hiding round a headland is the world renowned
Myrtos Beach and only a short way over the bay is Assos with its hilltop castle. On the northern horizon lies Lefkas, whilst majestic mountains rise to the east and west.
The island of Kefalonia enjoys long hot summers and you are never far from any number of fabulous beaches. Don't forget to bring your snorkel! The sea is so clear and blue you won't be able to resist taking a dip.
The Kefalonia / Zola area
There are a number of tavernas in the Zola area offering a varied menu from fish to succulent steaks and traditional Greek cuisine. Try a wonderful sea-food meal at the small harbour-side taverna or rent a small motor-boat to explore the secluded coves along the coast. You may be lucky enough to spot some of the numerous dolphins or turtles that can be found there.
Just up the coastline is the picturesque village of Assos with its quaint harbour. The adventurous may wish to hike up to the Venetian fortress to take in the views over the whole coastline. Continuing northwards from Assos will eventually bring you to the harbour of Fiscardo, famous for its Venetian architecture which has survived over the years.
More Kefalonia:
Stunning beaches, Diving, Monastery of Agios Gerasimos and Vineyard, Melassani Lake, Drogarati Caves, ‘Captain Correlli’ at Sami and Antisamos and much much more. Voted one of the top 10 places in the world to holiday. Once you’ve been you’ll know why....

Guestbook for Villa Drakondas
"We stayed at Villa Drakondas for a week, at the end of May. The Villa surpassed all our expectations. Every detail within the villa had been carefully thought out, so it was a home from home experience. The views and location, absolutely stunning, and the customer care we received out there was second to none. Our only negative point would be that the pool was quite cold, as it was early on in the season. We plan to return as we feel we have found a gem here and would whole heartedly recommend Villa Drakondas. The owners have been very friendly throughout the booking and we are still in touch, . We fell in love with Kefalonia and the area of Zola. Thank you to everybody involved in making our holiday such a wonderful one.
Linda, Ashley, Amber and Oliver Howard, Steeton, West Yorks"
"Just a quick note to say we all had a great time in Kefalonia. Your villa is lovely,such a perfect spot! Also spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Kefalonia was as beautiful as we remembered and the sun shone all week. All in all a perfect weeks break!
Regards Ian and Mary."
"We like to tell you that we have had a wonderful holiday on Kafelonia in your villa. First we visited Athens a couple of days and then we went to Kefalonia. You really have a very nice house on a very special and quiet spot! The quality of your house was more than we expected. The house was bigger than we expected – with a very nice pool - and we very liked the location and the view on the mountain, the beach and the sea – and every hour the colors changed a bit – wonderful!!
We rented a little Suzuki Jeep and two scooters –so we made a lot of trips all over the island. Also we rented a boat for one day and went for special beaches. And almost every evening we used the barbeque! So we enjoyed our holiday very much – thanks for all!!
Kind regards Caroline la Chapelle and Jaap Ruiter, Holland "
