An absolute perfect stay when in Kefalos, walkable to any of the lovely restaurants and bars. Location is perfect, the pool is an ideal size with enough sun beds around for more than enough people. The room was really clean, all amenities work perfectly and the cleaning staff were lovely. Would highly recommend staying here

Wonderful

We loved the Kontessa, it was clean, perfectly positioned with a beautiful view of the pool and sea, a beautiful sunrise from the balcony, sheets and towels changed regularly. A safe and a/c. We will definitely be back. We had 2 rooms and neither could be faulted.

I have already booked to go back there next year 😊

Liked: Cleanliness
I could say a few negative things, about toilet rolls and the doors being near impossible to lock. But it's great value for money and the pool is a proper job, not the glorified paddling pool that you get with some appartments. Good location, would go there again.

Nice quiet and convenient location

We have stayed at the Kontessa a few times and keep going back. It's lovely and quiet in the pool most days, great for kids while being 3 minutes walk from a number of good bars and places to eat and about the same to the beach. Facilities in the room are typically Greek but the addition of air con is a great addition. Really good resort for a peaceful break and a really good place to stay.

Good Location with nice pool

The apartment was pretty standard, but spacious, for Greek islands, but with the advantage of 3 beds and separate bedroom for 2 of them. Well maintained and clean. Sea view room on first floor had balcony view over the bay. Only a short walk to the Promenade (maybe 100m) and plenty of taverna choices. Friendly staff. Nice quiet location and really good size pool with separate shallow pool for kids. Decent size carpark if you're driving yourself. Would definitely recommend or use again. Beds would be a bit short if your 6 foot plus (but I'm not - so it was fine!!).

Lovely apartment, great views

Once we got past the confusion on whether the booking had been cancelled and paid for all was good. The cancellation confusion came when I changed booking from one person to two. When I was told I had not paid I produced my paperwork to confirm payment had been made there was no further problems. Would definitely recommend the apartment and the resort of Kefalos, very peaceful and laid back. Lovely people.

Struttura tranquilla ben tenuta, spartana.

All'arrivo siamo stati accolti con gentilezza, anche se arrivata alla sera abbiamo trovato il benvenuto sulla porta dell'appartamento ed una fetta di torta, Abbiamo trovato quanto richiesto con i letti aggiunti per le bambine, gli appartamenti sono comodi e funzionali. La posizione lato piscina è buona, al mattino batte un bel sole, un po' caldo. La piscina ed il giardino sono ben tenuti. Il bar apre un po' tardi al mattino, quindi abbiamo optato per la colazione all'aperto preparandola in autonomia. Il residence è vicino al mare alla baia di Kamari è comodo e strategico per le varie spiagge sulla parte est dell'isola, mare calmo e turchino. E' comodo anche per escursioni in auto dall'altra parte dell'isola, Kos e per raggiungere sia l'isola vulcanica di Nasyros molto suggestiva e Kalimnos, l'isola delle spugne e dell'arrampicata sportiva.
