Villa Dion is a beautiful eco-villa near the village of Karavados. The owners Maria and Dennis couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable. We went for the breakfast option, lovely local bread, fruit, honey, cheeses and yoghurt, which Maria left discretely outside the front door at a time of our choosing. The place is beautifully furnished, with pieces of artwork and all the kitchen equiptment and mod-cons you could possibly need. It is a three minute walk to St Thomas beach, where you can swim from the rocks or the sandy beach. There is also a taverna and a fish restaurant here. Argostoli, which is the capital, is a 15 minute drive, and the location is also very convenient for visiting other parts of the island.
