About this property
Villa Seagull
We fell in love with Skala the first time we visited, with its great beach, beachside tavernas and laid back atmosphere. Modern and bright with a sparkling pool set in its garden, Villa Seagull is the perfect Villa to combine sea and pool, meals out with self catering, privacy with the livelier atmosphere of the resort tavernas and cafes. The villa is ideal for groups of friends and families with each comfortable bedroom having its own shower room.
Villa Seagull has a view second to none, set on the rising coast line, overlooking the sea where on clear days, you can see right across to the Greek mainland.
It’s just 1.2 kms along the coast from the laid back resort of Skala and a pleasant evening stroll can be followed by a short taxi ride back.
If you’d rather not move even that far from the Villa (perfectly understandable), then within a very few minutes walk there is a lovely little relatively undiscovered pebbly cove with beautiful clear water and two excellent tavernas.

Fabulous location, wonderful views of the sea, easy to walk to some great tavernas and a lovely little cove. Villa was very clean. Outdoor area was brilliant with plenty of beds, chairs and shade.
Would be helpful to know when gardener was due to come so that we could have arranged to go out. Could do with a bit more kitchen equipment.

Summer Holiday in Villa Seagull
Villa Seagull was a very comfortable and spacious accommodation overlooking the sea and close enough to local restaurants and beaches. Denise, the owner, was super friendly and helpful ensuring the Villa remained serviced and clean.
I can’t think of anything that would have improved the stay. It was fantastic.

First time on Kefalonia
Villa spotlessly clean with good beds and pillows. Bedrooms were bright and spacious and all had sea/pool views. It was good to have one bedroom on the ground floor.
Good location on the edge of the village, very quiet at night, but still handy for local services.
There were a lot of steps down to the front door which made heaving luggage up and down hard work. The gate with a slope was locked. The indoor stairs would be safer with a handrail on the upper section.
Lounge seating area very small for full occupancy.
Maybe it's a little old fashioned but we find that a villa guide with physical pages is so much easier to peruse than via a QR code.

3rd holiday in Villa Seagull in 12 months
Skala is like a home from home. We stayed twice in Villa Seagull 2022, and couldn't resist another this year.
Denise the owner is a very good friend from many years ago
Can think of a thing

Outstanding Location
Location so close to the water’s edge is hard to beat. Skala centre is easily accessible and right next door is a great cove for snorkelling. Patio and pool area is fantastic.
Bathrooms in particular need modernisation. Shabby fixtures, shower heads need replacement, leaking plumbing. Overall interior feel of villa is rather tired and dated. Compensated by the rear patio area which is great!

Skala and old friends revisited
We have visited Skala many times over the years but not since 2005. Following a call from Denise the owner we decided to visit and stay at Villa Seagull.
The villa was perfect much better than any accommodation we have stayed in.
Skala has changed but in a good way, but not too much.
Many restaurants and Tavernas much as we remembered along with new ones.
Was just great to relax.

Beautiful villa with amazing sea views
This is a beautiful villa with amazing sea views. The outdoor space in particular, with a fantastic 10m pool, was very welcomed by the whole family. All 3 bedrooms are a good size and come with their own bathroom. The downstairs living space is compact, but was not an issue as we spent most of our time outdoors. Denise in particular was extremely supportive during the whole stay and always on hand to help in anyway. The town of Skala is a short 2-3 min drivea 20 minute walk and has plenty of shops/bars/restaurants. I highly recommend this property !.

Second holiday 2022
Four of us stayed at Villa Seagull in May having stayed in Skala many times in the 90s and 2000
My wife and I decided to celebrate our 50th anniversary and a big birthday in Villa Seagull in September.
We spent 7days relaxing and doing not a lot which was our intention after the past 2 or 3 years of covid and lockdowns.
It was made more special spending time catching up on lost time with the owner Denise.
Cannot think of one thing.
