Palace is a newly built and traditionally designed stone villa with five bedrooms. The villa is situated on an estate, right on the coast above the spectacular Blue Caves, in the north east of the island. There is a stone pathway leading directly to the sea and the legendary Priest’s Cave which, back in olden times, was used for meditation by a monk. The sea here is blue-green in colour and crystal clear, beautiful for swimming off the rocks. The owner is a water-ski instructor and is able to provide water-ski lessons on request. There are also motorboats which can be hired by guests to visit a nearby private, sandy beach or other nearby beaches at Maktis Gialos and Xigia, or the fishing village of Agios Nikolaos with a beach and taverna. There are also ferry connections from Agios Nikolaos to Kefalonia (one hour away), where there is a good choice of local tavernas, cafes and shops.
The villa is surrounded by grounds of olive groves and herbs and offers wonderful views over the sea. Palace has its own swimming pool and hydro-massage area. There are areas for relaxing and dining outdoors, a traditional village oven and a barbecue. There are canoes, snorkelling and fishing equipment, mountain bikes and an astronomical observatory available for guests' use. Use of a speedboat can be arranged, at extra cost, as well as watersports activities, fishing trips and boat excursions.
Constructed in stone and wood, the villa is furnished very tastefully. Amenities include satellite TV, DVD and a live scuba transmission of the Blue Caves' underwater world on LCD TV.
