A quiet hillside home for your Kefalonian summer

Sami View sits in a magnificent spot on the hill above Sami — close enough to walk to the harbour front and its tavernas, yet far enough for complete calm. From the balconies you look out over the village rooftops, the Ionian Sea, the lower valley, and across the water to Ithaca.

Pick tomatoes, herbs and fruit from our organic garden and bring them straight to your kitchenette.

There's a pretty swimming pool with sunbeds and umbrellas, BBQ facilities and large private parking. Melissani Lake and Drogarati Cave are a four-minute drive; Antisamos beach just beyond.
