Description

Driftwood is a luxurious Eco Villa in Kefalonia.

Nested in a 4000m2 plot, among olive, and fig trees, is the perfect getaway destination for those who seek to enjoy nature, privacy and tranquility.

It is just 200m (3min walking distance) from the picturesque beach of St Thomas.

Built by wood and stone and surrounded by local herbs is in absolute harmony with the environment, giving away the feeling of oneness with the Greek country side.

A unique combination of comfort, art and eco-living,

Driftwood Villa is the perfect retreat for couples and for honeymoon. Privacy, nature, candles and aromas create the atmospheric conditions for romantic getaways.

The stunning views of the Ionian Sea as well as the imposing mountain Ainos add to the experience.

On the arrival, a welcome pack is waiting for you. Freshly made herbal beverage, organic Kefalonian wine, snacks, fresh fruit, a light traditional snack and a pair of organic cotton slippers!

We can cater traditional breakfast every morning: herbal tea (hot or cold) free range eggs, bread, fresh fruit, local dairy products (3 types of the famous Kefalonian cheese and yogurt), nuts, dried fruit, sweet delicacies, fresh butter and homemade marmalade or kefalonian honey.

Alternatives treatments such as reflexology, massage and bio-resonance can be provided on site.
