Great for families and couples
Villa Forestata sits above the town of Lixouri which is opposite a small stretch of water from the capital Argostoli. Note that the inter-island ferry port of Poros is a 50 minute drive over the mountains to Argostoli, and although you can drive around the gulf to get to Lixouri, it is quicker to get the 15 minute ferry ... less driving and a better experience. Needless to say, you need a car. Villa Forestata is 10 minutes away from the town, with a fantastic view of the water. It is quiet, clean and best of all run by a couple of local sisters who are terrific hosts. The dinners were home-made and delicious. We will be back.

Fantastic location with great views across the Gulf of Paliki towards the mountains. Well maintained spacious studio apartment which was serviced regularly. The villa and the 6 apartments could be described as ecotourism anywhere else with solar power and solar heating . A daily highlight was a breakfast buffet provided by the host on the sunny terrace - which was fresh and mostly sourced from the surrounding orchards and olive groves. An Idyllic peaceful setting. The host was very accomodating and explained everything in English. Nothing seemed too much trouble for her.
