Beautiful, quiet hotel with friendly and helpful hosts. They went out of our way to support our needs and catered to what we were looking for. Very quiet and picturesque location. If that's what you're looking for then look no further.

The best hotel we stayed in Greece
Amazing hotel and facilities. Staff very friendly and helpful for everything we needed. The view you get from the hotel is just something else. Watching the sunset from the pool was unforgettable. Very close to Petani Bay Beach with excelent bars and restaurants. We definitely recommend it to everyone.

A Perfect Honeymoon Stay
Petani Bay Hotel was our choice of destination for our honeymoon and we were delighted that we picked it!
The good:
- Excellent service and hospitality by the family and staff. I cannot stress how amazing they were.
- Quiet and relaxing, which is perfect if you're trying to get away from daily stress.
- Breathtaking view over Petany Bay.
- Clean and spacious room (we were in a junior suite).
- Plenty of beaches and beautiful surrounding areas to explore.
- Not many guests due to the small size of the hotel. This was really important to us.
- Though a limited menu, the food tasted amazing.
The bad:
- The western part of the island is a bit more secluded. Unless you rent a car, it will be difficult to get around. Luckily we did, but getting anywhere required driving through the mountain passes. If you're considering this hotel I strongly recommend renting a car.
- May not have been the hotel's fault, but on my Hotels.com receipt, it said we were going to be charged a specific amount for taxes. On checkout, however, we were charged more than double that. Don't have a problem with paying whatever is required for taxes, but what was advertised on Hotels.com did not match what we actually had to pay. Just a warning there.
- The shower in our room was constructed in an odd way. Showring for just a minute would lead to flooding in our bathroom which was quite annoying.
A beautiful hotel set in a stunning area. Voula, John,George,Christopher & Stella are a lovely welcoming family who obviously take pride in what they do. Nothing was too much trouble. All the staff were very friendly
Thank you so much for your hospitality

Soggiorno rilassante in una location a picco sul mare. Staff cordiale e disponibile, ogni mattina veniva preparata appositamente una colazione gluten free per un ospite celiaco. La spiaggia più vicina è raggiungibile a 5 minuti di macchina ed è tra le più belle dell'isola, mentre per il centro di Argostoli e l'aeroporto sono necessari circa 50 minuti di macchina, ma per la posizione tranquilla e la vista impagabile dalla location ne vale la pena. Siamo stati davvero benissimo e speriamo di ritornare!

Très bel hotel
Très bel hotel dans une partie sauvage de Cephalonie. Vue magnifique. Il faut absolument avoir une voiture. La chambre 'design' est très petite, ainsi que le lit, mais sinon elle est jolie. Le petit-déjeuner est très bon.

Muito bom
Para um hotel 4 estrelas, ele atende todas as expectativas. Não é um hotel de luxo, o quarto que fiquei é simples, porém muito bem limpo e com bom tamanho. As instalações também são simples, exceto a piscina que acredito ser o chamariz do hotel, com uma vista espetacular. A dona está sempre presente e é super atenciosa e simpática, disposta a ajudar e a oferecer dicas sobre a ilha. O café da manhã é simples porém gostoso. Jantamos uma noite no hotel e a comida estava saborosa. O hotel se encontra em uma área mais deserta da ilha, creio que seja fundamental estar de carro.
Bellissimo albergo per soli adulti con una vista straordinaria sulla baia. Vale la pena pagare di più per le camere con vista, con grazioso balconcino. Bella e rilassante la piscina, con i baldacchini.
L'unica nota dolente: dalle altre recensioni sembrava che la spiaggia fosse vicina 10-15 minuti. Per chi non ha l'automobile, ci vogliono 25 minuti a piedi in discesa e 35 in salita, sotto un sole cocente e sui tornanti a schivare auto. Il gentile direttore si è offerto comunque di venirci a prendere, molto gentile.
Colazione buona e con i prodotti (miele e fichi) del giardino.

Incredible Views!
This hotel has hands-down the most gorgeous views from a hotel I've ever seen. It really takes your breath away. The pool is perfect, the rooms are comfortable, and the staff is incredibly welcoming and kind.
This is a location where you will definitely want to have your own car due to very few things being within easy walking distance, but if driving is not your thing and you're willing to spend on cabs the hotel will happily arrange those for you.

The view and ambience are Phenomenal. The pool area absolutely wonderful, peaceful background music creates a Fabulously calming experience. Just MAGIC!!
Hotel muito bonito, com vista e piscina com borda infinita realmente imbatíveis. No entanto, quarto oferecido apenas com banheira, sem chuveiro, o que afetou o conforto. Gentilmente, fomos transferidos para um quarto bem mais confortável, contudo apenas para a última diária.
Por do sol indescritível, piscina incrível com vista linda. Os funcionários são muito atenciosos e contribuem para que você relaxe e aproveite ao máximo sua estadia.

This hotel is absolutely wonderful! Very kind staff , Breakfast delicious and the most amazing sunset from your pool area! The view of the Petani bay is gorgeous ! Very cozy reception! Must go in Petani beach! Loved!!!!!!!
We had an amazing experience at Petani bay. From management to every single employee everyone tried to make our stay there as best as it could be.
Location:
The hotel does not have restaurants at a walking distance, but by car you can be at the beach in 7min or so, where you can find two great options.
The view is spectacular for Petani beach. We were during cloudy days but it has a great sunset.
The pool are is great, you can enjoy and have a lot of fun there.
Food:
The breakfast was great, several options. We had a hard time trying to decide what to eat, and everything we tried was delicious.
Concierge:
Our host was very lovely, providing all the information we need to plan a daytrip through the island.
She was constantly making sure we are having a great time.
Accommodation:
Room was comfortable, clean, good space. It had even Netflix, but with that amazing sea we didn't used the tv. :)
Would definitely come back again when visiting Kefalonia.
