Petani Bay Hotel - Adults Only

A really great hotel with fantastic views and fabulous pool area. The staff were friendly and attentive, lovely pool bar, and good breakfast. Very comfortable and clean, spacious rooms. A 3 minute drive (don’t walk !) down to the beach which is really nice with loungers and tavernas. The taverna up the hill, 8 minute walk, is excellent, and well worth visiting. Would certainly return to this hotel.

The best hotel we stayed in Greece Amazing hotel and facilities. Staff very friendly and helpful for everything we needed. The view you get from the hotel is just something else. Watching the sunset from the pool was unforgettable. Very close to Petani Bay Beach with excelent bars and restaurants. We definitely recommend it to everyone.

What a gem of a hotel on the west coast of Kefalonia. We were looking for a small adult only place to stay and were lucky to find this lovely boutique hotel. It is a family run affair, with Voula and her husband George at the helm, and their lovely adult children George & Elena helping to provide a seamless, relaxing and happy stay. Nothing was too much trouble for them to organise including arranging a private speedboat trip, booking restaurants and even giving us lifts down to the stunning beach just below the hotel before we decided we needed to hire a car, which Voula kindly organised for us. We had a lovely small suite with breathtaking panoramic views across the bay. The room had a small kitchen area with a fridge and there was a small dining table and chairs. The bed was very comfortable (even the pillows which I’m normally very critical of In hotels!). Breakfasts (included) were a delight with traditional Greek pastries, meats and cheeses available, alongside eggs, bacon, pastries and bread. Sitting on the terrace overlooking the stunning Petani Bay, eating watermelon, Greek honey & Yoghurt has got to be one of the best ways to start the day! The pool bar is lovely and open from 11 until 11. They serve drinks and coffees and then hot and cold food From their “snack” menu from 13.00. They are happy to provide iced water free of charge which is a bonus, especially in very hot weather. Relaxing chill out music plays which enhances the holiday vibe. The only downside to the hotel is that it is built on a hill (hence the staggering views) and therefore has many stairs and steps to get to the accommodation. It wasn’t a problem for us but for one of our adult daughters, who has a disability, it did present a few challenges. However Voula was very helpful and managed to relocate the two girls to a lower level room which we were very grateful for. Also, the hotel is in a very quiet location with only two tavernas within walking distance (the closest one of which you would NOT want to eat at!) and two others on the lovely beach below the hotel (the one we tried was great). The beach is down a very steep hill so not really suitable for walking, especially at night so all in all it is advisable (if not essential) to hire a car. There is a secure car provided for guests above the hotel (more stairs!). We will definitely return - as it seems many of their guests do! A really lovely place to stay!
