  Laid back and relaxing stay in a beautiful spot.

  22 Jul 2025

  We stayed here for five weeks, the apartments are basic but spacious and clean.Spyros the owner visited daily, a lovely friendly man.A lady cleaned each day and towels and sheets changed every three days.We were on the top, third floor so the at the front were sea views and Mountain View’s at the back.To us this was perfect.Parking was fine , but the gates had to be kept closed after entry and exit because of goat vandalism.The gardens were in full bloom during our visit , just beautiful.We could have done with more equipment, only one plate was provided so we bought two and left them there, an extra small saucepan would be good but we managed.Not worth complaining about , I’m sure Spyros would have provided this if we had mentioned it.Just a minor thing and did not affect our stay.Our front balcony is massive and had a small table and two chairs , so a lovely spot for morning tea/coffee to just sit and relax, we had our own alarm clock each morning, when Captain Vangellis left the mooring below on the beach with his ship and clients for the day trips, sounding the horn at 9 am daily.The hill is quite big, if anyone has mobility issues then probably not the place for them, but if you have a car no problem.We loved our time there and would recommend this lovely place. What would make it perfect would be a pool , but don’t think the owner wants the hassle of one..Shop and restaurant nearby plus in the centre many lovely restaurants and bars,beaches are nearby .

  Beautiful stay at the summer sun

  07 Jun 2025

  Had a lovely stay at the summer sun, Spyros who owns the place was really friendly and helpful. It’s about a 10 minute walk from town, there is a short steep hill up to the entrance, the views are amazing and as it’s out of the way it is really peaceful. I would highly recommend the summer sun

  Basic apartments but good value

  27 Aug 2023

  Apartment was very clean and having a cleaner in daily was an added bonus,She did a fantastic job. The view on the terrace is fantastic,having a morning coffee with the view of the sea is perfect.The apartments are in a fantastic location,the beach is just at the end of the road with a supermarket and lovely cafe.The apartment was smaller than I thought it would be,I also didn’t realise the 2 extra beds would be in the living room. My mistake thinking there would be 2 bedrooms. You would disturb people sleeping to make tea/ coffee in the morning.The hill up to the apartment was fine for me and my husband as we keep fit but could be challenging for elderly,disabled or unfit people.The bed was uncomfortable as the mattress was so hard.

  Stunning views lovely apartments

  05 Aug 2023

  2nd visit and just as good as the first. Lovely apartment, very friendly owners. The apartments are in a good location up a hill. Ideal spot for us with just a short walk into the centre. Booked already for our 3rd visit. Lovely quiet location with breath taking views. Highly recommend

  What a hidden gem!!!

  31 Jul 2023

  We have just returned from a 10 day stay at Summer Sun apartments in Skala, Kefalonia.I cannot recommend it enough!We stayed in the larger apartment which had a large living area with two beds and a separate bedroom with a double bed. Also in the apartment was a fairly spacious bathroom with a proper shower cubicle (virtually unheard of in Greece) and a good kitchen area.We arrived to be greeted by Tony and were shown to a spotlessly clean apartment which was so well equipped. Everything you could have needed including a double ringed hob, extractor fan and so many kitchen accessories even a cheese grater and toastie maker!The maid was excellent.The views from the first floor (huge) balcony were just breath taking. Sea views and very, very peaceful. Set in beautiful gardens (before the local goat herd demolished the flowers on our last morning ).Only two things could have made an excellent stay perfect.1. The hillside up to the apartment was very steep but probably made to feel worse as we were in the middle of a heatwave. If you are reasonably fit, it was no problem but if you struggle with hills, you might get a bit overwhelmed.2. A pool would be a fabulous addition to otherwise great accommodation. There seems to be plenty of room for one and it would be the cherry on the top. We found a pool to use on the beachfront so it didn't spoil it one bit to be honest. We would visit again in a heart beat - fabulous little place :)
