Villa Apollonia

A feast for the senses! Spend your days exploring the historic village of Fiskardo and the many beautiful beaches and water activities that the northern Kefalonian region of Erissos has to offer. Enjoy magical evenings in Fiskardo as the harbor comes to life and you dine beneath the stars with the beautiful island of Ithaca and a harbour full of boats as your backdrop. Or enjoy drinks and dinner at the villa as you watch the sun slowly disappear into the sea.

Peaceful and nestled amid acres of serene cypress, olive, and cedar trees, gazing out to the Ionian Sea and Lefkada, Villa Apollonia’s elevation above the rugged unspoiled Fiskardo shoreline, provides stunning sea and mountain views with mesmerizing sunsets.

An ideal escape – private, secure, relaxing, tranquil – promising a leisurely and reviving stay!

Having fallen in love with Fiskardo, the owners of Villa Apollonia found an unspoiled plot at the top of a bluff overlooking the Ionian Sea and constructed a masterpiece that was finished in June 2019. Only a five-minute drive from the bustling eateries, shops, and yachts of Fiskardo, the villa is nestled in a quiet and serene setting down a small private road in the village of Antipata. Villa Apollonia was meticulously designed and constructed to take advantage of the stunning sea views, picturesque Kefalonian landscape, and breathtaking sunsets. The house was built in a combination of the Venetian style that is quintessential Fiskardo with modern design elements such as expansive windows and luxury finishes.

Villa Apollonia began as an idea to marry the traditional and contemporary with a result that is truly spectacular. The villa was meticulously & lovingly created, using the best European construction materials and finishes to create a spacious Venetian style home, with a breathtaking infinity pool and jacuzzi overlooking the sea.

The house was designed to take full advantage of the surrounding views and abundant Greek summer light. Villa Apollonia was furnished with high-end furniture, all Cocomat beds and linens, air-conditioning throughout, WiFi, Smart TV’s, Bluetooth speakers, BOSCH appliances and complete and fully-equipped kitchen amenities.

Villa Apollonia is carved into a bluff that rises dramatically above the Ionian Sea and extends over two levels and contains over 250 square meters of living space. The design of the villa allows for privacy inside and outside, as well as various additional living areas throughout. There are no other inhabited houses that could obstruct the view from the back of the villa. Other than the sea and island views your only back-drop is the historical church of Saint John and a wild, untouched Mediterranean forest, forming part of the property.
