FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

When should I book my hotel?

Kefalonia is visited by thousands of tourists every year so booking early at your hotel is recommended. Especially if you are traveling during the high season (July- August) it is safer to have completed your reservation 4-5 months in advance.

When is the best time to visit?

The tourist season in Kefalonia starts at the end of May and finishes at the end of September. July and August are the busiest months on the island.
If you want a relaxed atmosphere during your holiday, you can avoid visiting during those two busy months.
We would suggest that probably the best time to visit the island is late June to mid-July when the weather is nice but the island is not yet too crowded.

Where should I book my hotel?

Is there another way to make a hotel reservation?

You can contact the hotel by phone or mail. In some cases, you might find some cheaper rates but it is not recommended.

Will I find last-minute availability?

Don’t wait until the last minute to book your lodging if you are traveling from July to early September.
Although there are many hotel units, it remains a popular destination and lodgings get sold out quickly.
Booking your stay 4-5 months in advance is safe and you will have a plethora of accommodations to choose from whereas price rates will be reasonable.

Is accommodation expensive?

It depends on the period and the type of hotel. Lower rates are found during May and after mid-September. Higher rates are found during the high season.

How much does accommodation cost?

It depends on many factors. An average estimation without including Luxury options, for 2 persons would be around 100-150 euros/per night in high season.

Where is the best place to stay if you are traveling on a budget?

You can find cheap options (60-120 euros) in different parts of the island. There are mostly clean and comfortable rooms-to-let that might not be very close to the sea or with a sea view and their design might be a bit basic.

Where is the best place to stay for a family with children?

There are many options ideal for a family traveling with kids. There is not a specific location that is more kid-friendly than another.
