The hotel is very well situated near the ferry and near the seafront and the many restaurants. It is a family run hotel and the owner Eleni couldn’t have been nicer. Her elderly mother and father were also lovely.
The hotel is basic but very clean and the roof top is a lovely place to sip a glass of wine with a wonderful view.
Situated just less than 1 km from Cave Melissani, Maria's Apartments offers accommodation in Sami with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as a 24-hour front desk.

Views of the countryside and the mountains overlooking the water were amazing. Peaceful location just outside of the main town, but close enough that we were able to walk there for dinner every night. Spacious flat provided all of the amenities and was able to accommodate four people comfortably.
Offering an outdoor pool and barbecue, Sami View is set in Sami. Cave Melissani is 800 metres away. There is also a kitchen, equipped with a toaster, refrigerator and stovetop. Towels are provided.

Everything, lovely accommodating couple with lots of stories to tell, they gave us recommendations for food and taxis and also gave us lifts into the centre. The house is very clean and I genuinely couldn’t think of one thing they could improve on.

Short walk, 15(ish) minute walk to the centre of Sami. Amazing views of Sami and surrounds. Was in love with all the animals while I was there, especially the dogs
The studios Stalaktites are located in the area of Drogarati, near the Drogarati Cave, and only 3 km from the port of Sami.

What went well?..... Everything!
Communication was excellent.
Afrodite accommodated our requests prior to arrival - such as a ground floor apartment - and check in process was simple..... reception inside the gift shop for the caves and collect keys.
Car is a must, IMO, unless you're a walker but the heat can be dangerous so be sensible!
The apartment was pristine, comfortable and well equipped.
Cleaner comes every single day - unexpected but most welcome although, on some days we just said "No, thank you" as we'd hardly been there and there really wasn't anything that needed doing.
Bless her - the cleaner actually looked disappointed and I wondered if she only got paid per apartment but I checked and that was not the case.
Managed to drop my SIM card inside the apartment and didn't realise until next day when we were on an all day boat trip.
Hooked onto my friend's data, sent a message to Afrodite and, 12 minutes later, had a reply that it had been found!
Pool was immaculate and a really good size.
Plenty of sunbeds and shade and at the very tail end of the season and into October, we had the pool to ourselves most days.
Added bonus - it was lit at night until around 11pm which we took advantage of on our first night and several others.
It's a peaceful place and we had an absolutely fabulous time there.
We have both previously stayed at Pericles Hotel on each of our individual visits to Kef but our dates meant we couldn't this time. Always been happy enough there but Stalaktites surpassed it by a country mile.
Looking forward to returning next year!

Sami gave me what I wanted, small, quiet resort but with plenty of restaurants, cafes and a few shops/ bakeries. Fatto a Mano has the best spanikopita!
Scenery was beautiful, harbour very pretty. The beach is narrow but water is very clean and great for a swim (no facilities on beach)

Good middle base for visiting all parts of Kefalonia, right near Melisanni and Drogarati caves. Sami centre has lots of nice restaurants. Adonis was our favourite. Great beach Antisamos is nearby. Myrtos beach about 25 mins away in car. Showers on beach a nice touch. Pretty private coves, good snorkelling, clear turquoise waters. Lots of friendly cats 🐱
Had a beautiful holiday.

Sami is the main ferry port so is ideal for access to other islands. There is no beach only a narrow stretch of shingle
There are numerous Tavernas along the harbour edge which are very pleasant and enable watching of the boats.

Sami was a perfect base for North if the Island . Alancia Suites are perfect . Plenty of places to eat and drink . Supermarkets were good .
Places to hire cars, bikes etc .
Lovely walks along promenade and marina
Local beaches pebbled but lovely .clean and plenty of space .
More popular beaches close by .
We loved this place. The view, the balcony, the comfortable bed, and on the sea front. This place has all you could need for an amazing stay in the beautiful town of Sami.
Easy access and great communication from the owner added to one of our best stays. With plenty of fresh towels and linen brought to the apartment every few days, we highly rate this place in every way.
With beaches, taxis, shops, ferries, restaurants, and one of the best cake shops , this place is a perfect holiday stay.
Location Sami was great for accessing different areas of the island. Nice restaurant in Sami centre, especially ‘Adonis’ we went there 3 times.
Sami View was beautiful, we were in room 1, everything you need in the kitchenette. Super clean, lovely grounds, and swimming pool, plenty of sun beds. Two sweet friendly pet cats, would come to visit us in the morning. Host was very helpful and would get you anything you need. Would definitely go back, we had a lovely stay.
The studio is located in a house in the middle of a beautiful garden, so you feel like you are in a small oasis. High ceilings and pleasant colors make the studio larger than its square footage. The large balcony is very suitable for eating meals, and there are benches and tables for resting in the garden. The nearest beach is 10 minutes away and it is possible to walk to the center of Sami along the coast.
Wow, what a lovely place to stay! The location is perfect, quiet and close to town and the hosts are fantastic! Our room had everything we needed and breakfast in the garden every morning was a real treat. And Sami is the perfect place to stay to avoid the tourist crowds and explore the rest of the island. It's centrally located with many great taveranas and bars.
This property is so beautiful! Our room was extremely clean and comfortable. We loved sitting out on the balcony and looking out at the garden and the nice view. Afroditi was so kind and helpful to us! We had a special time here. It is an hour walk to Sami, so renting a scooter is advisable (unless you enjoy long walks/hikes).
First, Liana, the owner, is very friendly and prepares an amazing breakfast😊 Spacious , quite and clean rooms, the location is near by the center of Sami and its great taverns. Also, due to it’s position, you can visit many beaches / places on the island. I do recommend this accommodation!🤗 Livia, Dragoș, Claudiu
Fanatastic service from a friendly team. Everyone at Sami beach goes out of their way to help. It seemed most guests had been coming here for years which is a big testament to the Hotel.
Great location on a beautiful Island. Nice breakfast, Padel Boarding, Tennis, Table Tennis and a great well stocked beach bar.
Located in the middle of the East cost of Kefalonia, perfect location for visiting the entire Island. Very close ta Sami where you can find any service you need. The owner was kind and ready to resolve any problem or any our need during the journey.
Mary's Studios and Apartment is the first choice to stay when we visit Sami. Immaculately clean, fully equipped with everything you need and perfectly placed with just a few minutes walk to the seafront, tavernas, shops etc.
Great location: 5 minute drive to sami city center located in a quiet neighborhood (ots good if you have a car). The staff were friendly and responsive. The views of the landscape were awesome!
nice landlady who does not speak any english - but hey we are in greece so we actually should be able to speek greece....;-) great view and just round the corner you have the beach
BEST HOTEL we've ever had in Greece! Exactly like on photos, a brand new room with beautiful modern designs, an amazing bayview as well (second floor). Strongly recommend it!
Great value for our one night in Sami. We were going sailing to Isthaki the next day and the proximity to the harbor was great. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
very spacious and nice apartment with everything you could possibly need. Very friendly staff and good location, a short walk from the center of Sami and the port.
