About this property

Korianna (near Spartia): Luxury boutique villa with incredible views

Korianna House is the dream property of a well-travelled company director who fell in love with Kefalonia and spent 10 years seeking the perfect location to build. After staying in some of the world's finest hotels she was able to translate her vision of a modern, stylish escape into one of Kefalonia's most beautiful villas.
The property enjoys the benefits of both a tranquil, rural location with spectacular unspoiled views with local amenities within walking distance. The sunsets it enjoys are simply amazing.

The property has been furnished with no expense spared, with furnishings from Feather & Black, Indian Ocean, The White Company and John Lewis among others. A unique feature wall with spotlights adds a special romantic touch, as do the many candles at the villa. The kitchen is well-equipped with incredible attention to detail, including a black granite worktop and top-of-the-range Neff appliances.
Perfect for a romantic retreat or a honeymoon but also well suited to families.

What a gem of a villa - beautiful home in a lovely location - fantastic views and stunning sunsets. The villa is so well appointed and Margot and Isobel (and Thermee) couldn't be more welcoming. Planning our trip next year already.

A perfect peaceful holiday property.
Korianna House is a beautiful and extremely comfortable property with a fabulous view. A quiet, peaceful setting only fifteen minutes from the airport and bustling capital Argostoli. A perfect base from which to enjoy the beautiful island of Kefalonia.

Lovely, lovely place to stay
Excellent booking and checking in experience, the property manager was present when we arrived and showed us everything. Very well equipped villa. Extremely comfortable and everything worked as it should. The welcome pack was very generous and the inclusion of Netflix and appletv a good idea as there were a couple of storms during my stay. The house is close to lots of great places to go and being elevated gives a feeling of being more remote than you are. Loads of information about good restaurants etc too. Thanks Margot and Emma for a lovely holiday.

Beautiful villa in a charming corner of Kefalonia
Thoroughly recommend this very well equipped villa with all of the amenities you could want (and some you had not thought of). Lovely pool and sea views, comfy bed, stylish living area and very well equipped kitchen. The Spartia area hosts or is close to a large number of excellent tavernas and Avithos beach nearby is the perfect balance between too busy and too spartan. Argostoli, the island's capital is only 15 minutes drive and the airport is close by too (although no aircraft noise) so getting there is really easy. Been 2 years in a row and rebooked for 2020 already. When we consider other Greek destinations we ask ourselves "are we going to wish we were back in Korianna House" and the answer is always yes.

We spent a week but wished it had been a month.... a luxury home from home
My wife and two kids (9 & 7) simply loved this place. It's a great location on top of the hill, so it makes the most of the breeze if there is one (we were there in Aug 32-35 degrees). The house itself is the most well equipped we've come across, air-con in every room (other than bathrooms), Apple Tv, DVD, Bose speaker. Open plan downstairs and super comfortable. The bedrooms are a decent size with good wardrobe/draws space. The local village is a few minutes walk away and there is a load of beaches all within 10 - 15 min drive. I'd suggest you hire a small car as the roads are very narrow when you get close to the coast. Looking through the guest book, there is a load of families that have revisited the house over the years and I can completely see why. It really is a home from home. The house is managed by Isobel, who is so nice, extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. Book this place and enjoy!

About the host

Hosted by Margot Raggett

Host profile image
Based in London, I worked in the city in PR for 20 years. In 2010 I left that world, bought Korianna House in Kefalonia and started a new life working in conservation. I now split my time (covid-permitted) between the UK, Africa and Kefalonia.

Why they chose this property

I had been intending to buy in Kefalonia for many years but never quite found the right place until the day I stumbled on the half-built property which is now Korianna House. As soon as I stood in the area that would become the pool and took one glance at that view down to the sea, I was sold. The peace and tranquility, the view, the sunsets...there is no-where else quite like it.

What makes this property unique

A village location and yet privacy and tranquility, walking distance to the sea and local tavernas and yet not a tourist resort. Live like a local and you'll never want to leave.
