My favorite part of the island of Kefalonia in Greece is "Paliki". A western peninsula that you can easily reach by ferry or by car, and a little less touristy than the eastern side of this summer destination. The ideal base for your trip, as it is wonderfully quiet here. I recommend the "Petani Beach Suites": a few cozy apartments right by one of the most beautiful bays of Kefalonia. While day tourists have to search for a parking space to spend a day here, as a hotel guest, you can walk to the beach in just a few seconds. Did you know that Petani Beach is one of the most beautiful sunset spots in Kefalonia? Ideal to stay until the end of the day. Afterwards, you can eat something at the traditional restaurant "Ksouras Tavern". The eggplant dip and fresh octopus are to die for!
