Liberatos Village

Wowwww! I can only say amazing things about this place... the owner Mr George, the staff Mina, Makis and the others are just great! The freshly made food and drinks are priceless with the breathtaking view "Window to Kephalonia" as someone called it there! Sunsets by the pool are unique here. The rooms have safe, fire jackets, small stove and oven with everything for cooking and a refrigerator... but why cook when they are such good cooks 🤩. I didn't need the ac, but there is one, as well as extra blankets if you need. If you need a hair dryer or iron they can lend you one at the front desk. If you cam drive manual cars I strongly recommend Alex from Via Venetia for great cars at amazing prices if you have International drivers license, otherwise get a well known car company Enterprice etc. A car is only recommended if you want to see the island. Liberatos Village is up a hill that will keep your body in shape and that bathingsuit looking great! Get a hat here and bring your sunblock! They offer small soaps, towels and bedsheets. I stayed here 7 nights and really felt at home... room F4 had an amazing balcony and spacious/comfortable room! Make sure to visit the Church up the hill and the cave inside the church!

LV offered us very basic, no-frills accommodation at a decent price. The landscaping and buildings were nice and the pool and bar were clean and well-operated. Our actual “apartment” was not nice. There was a twin bed in the kitchen (no headboard, no linens, no pillow). The bedroom had a full-size bed with linens and two pillows, but no blanket, just sheets. The shower and toilet worked fine, but there was no shampoo or any other amentities. No hair dryer. There was a small refrigerator and a toaster oven with a couple of burners attached. We had rented a car, so we could get into the little town (about a five minute drive) and there were several nice tavernas and bars, as well as a nice beach about ten minutes away. It was an adequate accommodation, but don’t expect charm.

Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Lovely location. And service was brilliant.

Liberatos Village has so nearly got it right! Staff were fantastic, pool and area around it was amazing. The apartment itself was fine but a couple of tweaks would have made it really good. The bed was comfortable for us and the sheets spotlessly clean and regularly changed. Housekeeping every day. Shower was great, no issues with pressure or hot water. We were in I block so the furthest away from reception, there is a hill to climb to it but it is very manageable and soon felt like nothing ( we are 57 and 71 years old). The apartment felt tired , handles coming off when you opened the doors. Our biggest ‘gripe’ is that it is advertised as self catering but the equipment there made it very hard to self cater. Two tea, spoons and four of everything else. These were not clean when we arrived hence a three star for cleanliness. There was no equipment to wash up with - no cloth, washing up liquid etc- come on guys it doesn’t take much to provide those basics. The ‘sofa’ is a day bed, comfy enough to sit on but the cover is just a sheet so if someone was using it as a bed it would be very unpleasant for them. The balcony was a good size. A parasol would have been helpful as it was too hot to sit outside at times. All that being said the complex was quiet and felt safe. The pool area was great, clean, great bar area with reasonably priced tasty food. Not sure what’s in the advertised mini market as didn’t use it. Walk from road to complex took us only 10 minutes and no issues.

The apartment were good and the pool excellent. However, the location requires to you either get taxi or rent a car, unless you like hiking.

I don’t think I can recommend it to anyone else.

This large complex is at the top of a very steep hill and you either need a car or are very fit to climb up and down twice a day. Upon arrival our room needed replacement lightbulbs, towels, toilet roll and hangers (we had 4). These requests were dealt with immediately. There is nowhere to put your small clothing items, there are no drawers / no furniture apart from the bed, so you either hang everything or you live out of the suitcase for your smaller items, or you could use the shelf over the kitchen area, as we did. You are supplied with tea bags/coffee/sugar and a small bottle of water per person. The pool was freezing cold in early Sept. The breakfast that comes with pre-payers is awful, see pic. The eggs are greasy, the juice is from concentrate and the coffee (not filter / you only get that when you pay). Even the pastries were rank.
