Sami
Along the eastern edge of Kefalonia, seafront Sami is a stone’s throw from one of Kefalonia’s most iconic and beautiful beaches – Antisamos. This curling bay of bright white pebbles promises to wow, as do the famous Melissani Lake and Drograti Cave nearby. It’s all rather chic in town, with go-slow water’s edge tavernas.
A charming town with naturally beautiful surroundings, Sami was selected as one of the main filming sites for Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. Its old villages and bright white beaches proved to be such stunning settings that they had many cinema-goers jumping on the next plane to Kefalonia!
Talk of the town
Sami is the third-largest town in Kefalonia, but that doesn’t mean it’s just full of crowds. You’ll find that its port serves as the main link to nearby islands, with staggering scenes of the place Odysseus called home. There are even sailing routes to southern Italy and the Greek mainland.
Ancient attractions
This corner of Greece has a long legacy in mythology and ancient times. Get ready to check out the Acropolis of Sami for yourself! The stone structures are just rubble now, but you’ll still see breathtaking views from the top of the mountain, plus awesome ageing monasteries.

We spent 10 glorious days at the Athens Hotel in Karavomylos and it was amazing. The hotel is simple but very clean and our room and balcony were lovely. The owner, Makis, is a lively, generous man who is always very helpful. The evening walk into Sami is beautiful with stunning views of the sea and surrounding mountains. To be recommended.

Wonderful relaxing holiday

Hotel basic but very clean. It has charm and is very peaceful. Has everything you need, if not just ask, they will do there upmost to get it. Makis or Astrid will ensure you are happy with your room and includes offering you a choice on arrival ( if he is not full) .. Very welcoming arrival.... View from the breakfast terrace is amazing. Continental breakfast with plenty of choice and all fresh. Defiantly will be returning.
