Smoking friendly vacation rentals in Agia Effimia

Great home! It is located close to the city of Argostoli and has amazing views to the harbor. We had a lovely time at Anesis and would definitely recommend staying here. The check-in and check-out process were smooth and fast. The house was in great condition with new furniture and very clean. The provided amenities such as the washing machine and fully equiped kitched made our stay even better. We were pleasantly surprised to find the fridge stocked with a few bottles of water, juice and even a nice bottle of wine. There were also cookies and biscuits along with jam left for us! Marinos and Maria were super helpful and gave us some recommendations on the beaches to visit as well as some restaurants in the area.

Incredible place so nice and peaceful. A nice short walk into Lixouri. Theo was a great host and always contactable. We’ll 100% be booking to come back!

Mark and his wife were amazing, very careful to our needs and always ready to help and provide great tips on the best beaches! Great spot to visit the island if you like to change place every day, very recommended!:)

Anna’s place was exactly as described, the bed was very comfortable and the linen and towels provided were of a high standard. The kitchen is fine, no microwave but that was no problem for us. The owners were friendly and helpful, they left us supplies in the fridge on our arrival and dropped off some orange juice & pastries one morning. The AC works well, the bathroom is excellent, the shower is superb, with a wonderful view if you open the window at head height. The road outside is too tight to park outside but there was always room 50 yards down the road so not a problem. Lastly there was a beautiful cat that visited every morning & evening, she always sat on the doormat and never went indoors, we named her Tinker as she has a bell around her neck, we found her adorable, on our last evening we walked down the slope in front of the property and found her with her 3 kittens, they were shy, Tinks let us give her one last stroke to say goodbye, please buy her some food, it’s very cheap

Beautiful private villa. Car is a necessity as this location is remote with no buses and limited taxis. Walking distance to beach. Simply stunning and relaxing.

As we arrived in the dark, Konstantinos waited at the airport to guide us to the apartment. We got many local recommendations. We stayed for a week and had the possibility to get our lines changed halfway through our stay if necessary. The apartment had everything needed and was close to some beaches and restaurants by car. All in all, he went out of his way to make our stay perfect.

Nice homely approach. excelent communication. For me it is place, where i will definitely like to return.

The hospitality was great. And the lady Lia was friendly. We love everything.

Beautiful rustic cottage with panoramic views of the north east coastline, just a short drive from Nebolos and Madraikas. The interior is comfortable and thoughtfully furnished including air conditioning, local products, and a cafetiere. If you're looking for a peaceful place to unwind after a day exploring Zakynthos' beaches and tavernas then this it. Fantastic value for money.

We had a wonderful week in George's villa, starting with a warm welcome from his lovely mum who showed us around. We were then left in peace for the rest of the trip, although George always responded quickly when we sent him questions. The villa is even nicer than the pictures, great AC and plenty of towels. It is atop a hill, with no other villas or roads close by, so you're not overlooked and the view is breathtaking. We didn't hear traffic noise or even dogs barking at night, you feel tucked away in your own private space. The pool is perfect, and stays really clean thanks to the infinity design. The loungers are comfy with the grapevine shade. We used the outdoor BBQ and sat out on the terrace every day, though if you're eating outside you will attract some flies. The location is rural, so there were lots of bugs outside and occasionally inside - not a problem, but something to be aware of and bring insect repellent! There are screens on doors and windows to keep them out.

Over all, I would highly recommend staying here. There are, however, a few things to be aware of. 1. The walk to the house is up pretty steep set of stairs. This is nothing major, but some may struggle, especially if they’re carrying heavy luggage. 2. The people outside around the house are quite noisy at night. Surprisingly so. We weren’t overly bothered by it, and it did seem to die down on the second night (our first night was a Saturday, so I guess that goes with the territory). 3. The host asks that the hot water breaker be left off until 30 minutes before you want to shower, after which it should be turned off again. This is obviously a bit inconvenient if you’ve been out and about all day and would like to shower then get right to bed. All that being said, this place is 100% worth booking. The setting is fantastic and the host is very nice.

An absolute gem of a place. Emma and her mother made our stay simply perfect by providing everything we could have asked for and more. The spacious and comfy house was easy to find and super clean, offering every comfort needed. It offers a lot of privacy and quiet, along with incredible views of the surrounding sea and mountains (the visiting cats were a big plus!). It's location also makes it easy to get to one of the beautiful beaches or a great place to eat after only a short drive. We had an amazing time here and can't wait for a chance to return. Thank you for having us! =D

An amazing holiday, with friendly and very helpful hosts in Sybille and Eckhard. The house was spotless and extremely well equipped, the pool is stunning and the views to die for. Lots of seating around the property to maximise the shade and fans or air con in the bedrooms at night. We spent time in Agios Nikolais at the beach and in the friendly cafe perched over the water. Favourite restaurant among many only 10 minutes drive away was The Old Windmill. Definitely the best holiday we have had for a long time.

We loved the house and had a great stay. Thank you!

Staying at Vasilis’s accommodation was really nice. It was super clean and comfortable. Vasilis was friendly, flexible and gave us great hospitality. We fell in love with a small kitty in the house, so she made it even nicer. The location was in a quite place, which we preferred. Amazing stay!

My boyfriend and I had a very good and nice stay. We loved it, both the island and the house, very intimate and equipped with everything you need. We rented a scooter and got to the center very quickly and to the shops. We liked the most how the house was so arranged, both architecturally and aesthetically. The only thing in the home would be the fact that the bed was much too soft than we are used to, because we sleep on a semi-soft bed is much more suitable for the column/body ( which caused back pain) and sometimes we found cockroaches in the house, which stressed us, because we had to kill them. Otherwise it was great!

Great accommodation, we were very well located and very well looked after!

Liebe Anna, Thank you for everything. You were always easily accessible. The apartment was perfect for us. The location is close to We liked the city center and the harbor. Cheers, Thomas and Karin

Excellent stay in a super clean and well located apartment. Everything was in order and well supplied. Had a great stay here - Highly recommended host!

great view, beautiful garden with BBQ, private parking, air-conditioning in all rooms (though we never used them cause it always had a nice breeze). Dionysis was a great host and the place overlooks the bay, and it's 5mins from Argostoli town.

We had a lovely stay at Manolis's house. It is within walking distance of everything that Sami has to offer and close to many of the local beaches. Highly recommend for both short and long stays in Keflonia.

Mister Efthimios was very proactive and responsive when it came to communication before arriving at the place. When we arrived, he greeted us warmly and gave us a small tour of the apartment. I had to work from home during my stay, and the Internet was being a bit spotty but Mister Efthimios came over more than three times to help me with the issue. He was super helpful, kind, respectful and polite. many, many thanks for the lovely stay! 5/⭐

Absolutely perfect stay in the heart of Lixouri! This house exceeded all expectations — immaculately clean, beautifully decorated with a stylish and modern touch, and incredibly convenient for everything you could need. It’s ideally located for exploring all the stunning nearby beaches, yet peaceful and quiet at night. What made it even more special was the thoughtful attention to families: the house was wonderfully equipped for a little toddler, with a comfy crib, toys, and little touches that made us feel completely at home. It’s clear the hosts truly care and go the extra mile. Highly recommended for anyone, including families — you’ll feel relaxed, welcomed, and truly taken care of in this lovely home. We can’t wait to visit again!

Stavros was wonderful. He checked us in smoothly and gave us some useful tips about the island for our stay. Our stay was very pleasant! We will definitely consider to be his guests one more, next time my wife and I will visit Kefalonia.
