Hotel Pelagos Bay

Warm welcome on arrival, friendly owners, family and staff always willing to chat and help. Rooms are adequate and comfortable and contain everything necessary. Nice pool and bar area, all in all nice. What I really liked though was the location a 20/30 min walk in to Scala town with it's shops and abundance of restaurants (although the best called Old Times is right next door!) But the cherry on top is that directly opposite the hotel down a flight of steps is the most beautiful secluded bay I have ever seen with crystal clear water perfect for swimming and snorkeling . I would highly recommend just for this.

My partner and I spent a week at the Pelagos Bay in early September and enjoyed it very much. The hotel is very quiet, with a huge pool. Just across the road is a path down to the most beautiful cove, which was lovely for swimming. Our room was quite basic, but perfectly acceptable. It was cleaned frequently and had efficient aircon and a fridge, and the whole hotel and grounds are well maintained. You can hire pool towels, but these won't be changed daily unless paid for again, so just take your own! As others have said breakfast is very basic indeed (toast and cornflakes, basically!), and I'm not quite sure why - it surely wouldn't be too much to offer a little more variety. We had lunch a couple of times at the poolside bar and it was fine. Yiannis the barman is lovely, very friendly and helpful. We went into Skala to eat in the evening, it's at least a 30 minute walk or a 5 euro taxi ride, and there is a large selection of nice restaurants there - we didn't have a bad meal anywhere. Kefalonia is a lovely, unspoilt island. All in all, we had a great time and I could recommend the Pelagos Bay for a chilled-out holiday.
