Assos is a picturesque small fishing village overlooked by the
ruins of a Venetian fortress dating from 1595. The fortress
commands breathtaking views of the western coast of Kefalonia and
down as far as Myrtos beach. It is an ideal spot for birdwatchers
and magnificent sunsets can also be viewed from this point. The
village of around a hundred inhabitants contains some fine examples
of Venetian architecture commonly found on Kefalonia before the
devastation of the 1953 earthquake. The area around the horseshoe
harbour with its pebble beach also serves as the main village
square and is officially known as Paris Square. Poplar and plane
trees provide wonderful shade and at springtime there are dazzling
displays of tropical flowers around the little fishing port.
Situated in the village and around the harbour are four tavernas, a
bar, and a mini-market. Please note, there is not an ATM or money
changing facilitiy in Assos, the nearest resort being Fiskardo,
there is also an ATM at Kefalonia airport.
Of the few holiday properties in Assos, Apollonia is positioned
in one of the most desirable locations, right on the edge of a
beautiful sand and shingle beach. The resort offers several
tavernas, one serving excellent fresh fish, a minimarket and a gift
shop, so with no noisy bars or other activity, its appeal is
obvious to those who desperately feel the need to relax and unwind
for a week or so.
Vicky and Nikos, the proud owners of this property have
tastefully created four comfortable studios, each with a verandah
with stunning seaviews. On the first and second floor and also
directly behind Apollonia, there are one, two and three bedroom
apartments for accommodation only rental. These may be booked
directly from their website, www.apartment-in-kefalonia.com, but
not available through Greek Options.
Most buildings in Assos have conservation orders so it takes
some thought and imagination to create such pleasant accommodation
and you cannot fail to be impressed by its spectacular location on
the waters edge.
The resort offers several tavernas, one serving excellent fresh
fish, a minimarket and a gift shop, so with no noisy bars or other
activity its appeal is to those who just wish to lie back and relax
for a week or two. The twin bedded studios consist of an open plan
kitchenette with a dining area and an en-suite bathroom with shower
and verandah to the front. One step down from the verandah to
a common path for access to each studio and the beach.
Please note that there are a number of steps down to the
studios from the drop off point, on the lane
above.
