Luxurious 2 bedroom villa, walking distance to village and sea, with private pool and sublime views
Villa Tethys is located on the outskirts of the fishing village of Assos - one of the prettiest villages in the Ionian. The villa is situated in an elevated position above the crystalline waters of Assos and has sublime views over the bay and the remains of the old Venetian castle.
The villa itself is very stylish and exceptionally well equipped. The central living space is bright and airy with cool terracotta tiles on the floors, simple white walls, comfortable furnishings and terraces on either side which benefit from the wonderful views. A large french window offers views to the south and Myrtos bay, whilst the one to the north can be opened to allow a refreshing breeze throughout the property. The kitchen area is well equipped with refrigerator, microwave, cooker, kettle, dishwasher, washing machine, toaster and sandwich maker. The living room/dining area offers Satellite TV , Video/DVD and IPOD, and there is air-conditioning throughout the villa.
The property has one bathroom which is located behind the kitchen so that the two sleeping spaces can easilly share it.
From the living area, steps lead to a twin bedroom which has an external wardrobe/dressing area.
On the upper floor, the galleried master double bedroom is set in a spacious attic overlooking the living room with windows facing both north and south.
Surrounding the property are colourful Mediterranean plants and shrubs. The pool terrace offers a shaded pergola with sun loungers and has fabulous views across the Ionian Sea and to the Venetian Castle of Assos. There is a separate BBQ terrace equipped with table and sun umbrella, with stunning views of Myrtia bay and Assos village below.
The bay of Assos is frequented by all kinds of marine life and it is common to spot a lazy monk seal or a dolphin in the waters below after the yachts depart for safe anchorage. It’s a wonderful area for snorkeling and the sea-shore can be reached easily by a series of steps that meander through bushes of wild thyme, rosemary, cedar and sage. The path leads past the remains of an old lighthouse before arriving at a swimming platform next to the sea. Steps carved into the rock give easy access to the sublime waters.
Lying enticingly in the bay opposite is a small island which can be accessed from Assos by a narrow causeway. This is a wonderful place to walk in the cool of the evening whilst the sun sets over the Lagonissi peninsula.
Assos village itself is host to a small number of traditional eateries, cafes and bars, all walking distance from the villa.
The clever layout of villa Tethys is perfect for a family of four wanting a lovely villa, with private swimming pool in exceptional surroundings.
Situated in one of the most beautiful villages on the island of Kefalonia in an exceptional position, overlooking the bay, Villa Tethys provides a high level of self catering accommodation for 4 guests, making it perfect for a small family wanting a private villa holiday in a unique and wonderful setting.

First of all I want to thank you and all the team for all your help and information related to our recent holiday. It has been a real pleasure dealing with your company, thank you!
With regards to the holiday it was fantastic, we had such a good time. The Villa was perfect, location was amazing, we really had a great time. Very relaxing. Even the last bit of the hill got easier by the end!
Also would like to mention Carina, who could not do enough to make our stay clean and comfortable. She worked so hard to make sure everything was in order.
Its going to be tough where we go next time, however rest assured I will be in touch with Pretty Greek Villas!
Once again many thanks for helping make a wonderful holiday happen.
Regards
Phil.

The overall experience was really good, the villa and all the surrounding context were great. The assistance we received from the girl there (I cannot recall the name now.) was perfect, she was really supportive and ready without being intrusive.
Best regards

We had such a lovely time at Villa Tethys, Kefalonia.
The villa is lovely, the views and setting is amazing and the service from Adrianna was perfect - she was adequately attentive without getting in the way and always available, even dealing with a sand storm with no fuss or drama!!!
We would have no hesitation in using you guys at Pretty Greek or indeed Katrina and her villas and car hire again in the future - we will also be putting up very positive feedback on 'trip advisor' about all of you and the great time we had.
Please pass on our comments to Katerina, who took time to phone us during our stay to ensure that we were happy and comfortable.
Thank you again for everything you did to make it such a memorable holiday for all of us, and I hope you all have a succesful season and that we have the opportunity to deal with you again in the near future!
Kind Regards
Bill, Julie, Alfie and Esme
