This is a pretty Greek holiday resort, especially the area around the original village of Lourdata.
Lourdas is a clean and well-maintained village and as it is situated at the end of the road, there is little traffic passing through. The long beach, which is kept clean during the summer months, has white coarse sand and pebble and is one of the most beautiful beaches of Kefalonia (Cephalonia). It offers crystalline waters, sun beds, umbrellas, and a few shops. The surroundings are wonderful and the massive figure of Mount Ainos can be seen in the background which was declared a National Park by the Greek state in 1962 and is the highest mountain on Kefalonia (Cephalonia).
There are a number of good tavernas and bars in Lourdas, but it is a quiet holiday resort with no noisy nightclubs.
There are a couple of nice walks along the coast towards the Monastery of Sission and Katsonas beach but aside from that, you really will need a car if you are to do anything away from the beach at Lourdas. VillaPlus.com can offer competitive rates for car hire in Kefalonia which must be booked in the U.K. before your villa holiday.
VillaPlus has Villa Leanda and Villa Andrea which are next door to each other. These villas to rent with private pools are in a perfect location within easy walking distance of Lourdas, the beach, restaurants and bars.
