Reviews for Panorama Fanari Studios and Apartments

Review 1：We were there during the worse storm that they had in many years, flooded roads, landslides...had to stay indoorsfor the whole three days. Had a car package, but due to the rain had some dammage...and manager tried to make us pay more than necessary foe repairs!! Too many cats, cant open a door without them running in!

Review 2：Sea turtle at the port/pier and the cake/bakery and coffee shop. View from our room.

Review 3：Didn't like leaving!

Review 4：So many good things at Panorama Fanari. Staff and Dionesi were all lovely, very helpful and friendly. Apartment was clean and comfortable, with an amazing view from the balcony. Good breakfasts with great coffee at poolside bar; and very welcome 'honesty bar' for delicious cold beer etc. Pickups and drop offs at airport made travel trouble free. Would certainly recommend Panorama Fanari for a relaxing and stress free holiday.

Review 5：BBQ was fun getting to know each other but the food was disappointing and therefore made it poor value for money.

Review 6：Clean apartment, fresh bedding and towels daily. Lovely pool area and the most beautiful view from the apartment. Friendly, helpful staff. Honesty bar. Free collection from airport. Relaxed environment.

Review 7：Super location with good parking. Wonderful hosts, so welcoming and keen to make your stay as good as it can be. Very close to Argostoli, although we didn't walk in, you probably could quite easily but would maybe want to take a taxi back, particularly at night.

Review 8：Personale veramente gentile e disponibile!!! posizione ottima, un panorama mozzafiato.. Very kind people!! Good position and the apartment is very confortable with a fantastic view on the see!!!

Review 9：Was a bit cramped for 3 adults.

Review 10：Dionysi and his wife Chryssa were very welcoming and helpful. The apartments had a lovely pool and the clientele were very friendly. The location was beautiful however if you do not have a car it is approx 25 min walk to Argostoli or 6 euro taxi drive one way.

Review 11：nothing

Review 12：If you looking for peacefull location with breathtaking views this is the place for you. It is a family run business and they will make you feel like their long time not seen cousin. Nothing is a problem for Dionisy and his staff. When our little girl get poorly he stay with us at the hospital until we saw the doctor. Free airport transfer is very helpfull. Goraco polecam. Doskonala lokalizacja i zapierajace dech widoki. Nic nie jest za duzym problemem dla wlasciciela i obslugi. Kiedy nasza coreczka zle sie poczula i musielismy jechac do szpitala Dionisy zostal z nami do czasu az zobaczyl ja lekarz. Darmowy transfer z i na lotnisko jest bardzo pomocny.

Review 13：Shower fittings were poor which was a shame.

Review 14：Location was excellent. Great pool and pool area Friendly staff Easy car hire Pick up from airport Free safe

Review 15：Nothing.........

Review 16：warm , friendly welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for Dionisi and his family. Fantastic buffet breakfast. Quite peaceful location , fantastic views. Apartment cleaned and towels changed every couple of days. Lovely pool , plenty of sunbeds.

Review 17：It is a good 20 minute walk down a pretty windy steep road so not quite as easy to get into Argostoli as we anticipate but we often just walked in (which was a beauitful walk) and then got a taxi back which cost €6

Review 18：We had a great stay in this lovely apartment. It was clean and comfortable and the pool and bar was a great facility. We hired a car too which was so easy and stress free to do. The views from the balcony are fantastic. Great that you could help yourself to beer, soft drinks and water and pay later. We loved that. Thanks to Dionisi for everything, he was a great host. Very friendly and welcoming and picked us up from the airport despite being 4 hours delayed! We will be back!

Review 19：We checked-in around 10pm and felt so welcome despite the late hour. The view from our balcony was simply charming. Dionisis, our host, was very helpful, responsive and polite at all times. A great place to stay if you visit the island of Cephalonia!

Review 20：Nothing not to like.

Review 21：Wonderful view from balcony. Amazingly friendly - but not intrusive at all - owner. And spotlessly clean apartment with great facilities.

Review 22：Make sure you like rustic and real, apartment not modern, but immaculately clean. Need car to see rest of island but ideal for a blissful retreat.

Review 23：Uninterrupted views of the bay in a charming little home-from-home! The owner and his wife welcomed us from the start. We were able to switch off and totally unwind. Just 10mins scenic stroll to Argostoli port. 15min drive from airport. Definitely booking back soon! We didn't want to leave!!

Review 24：Combination appartment And hire car, conveniënt solution. The owner made it an excellent very welcoming stay throughout as described in other reviews. Really true And absolutely recommended! Pick up And drop off from/to airport made THE entire stay easy And relaxing

Review 25：-too far to walk everyday to Argostoli for dinner: you need car

Review 26：-the owner is very helpful, kind and knows English, and German - the possibility to rent a car at a reasonable PRICE - transfer to harbour -breakfast at 5 euro -views -My husband was taken to hospital and we die NOT have to pay the BBQ and Dionysis was very helpful

Review 27：Dionissis, the owner, was mostly welcoming (he is quite a character!) and helpful. The rooms are simply furnished and maybe a bit old-fashioned as for the style, but comfortable in the end. The location is totally quiet (it takes 5 minutes to get to the center of Argostoli by car) and we always enjoyed a good sleep. The view you get from the balcony is a plus.

Review 28：Nothing, all good

Review 29：Dionysus is the most helpful and welcoming person, he put on a BBQ one night, fantastic 3 course meal, beautiful views from the balcony. Clothes drying racks. Great value for money.

Review 30：the staffs here are very kind, Dionisis is a very good host to answer all your questions about the island and could give you some recommendations. it's no more than 10 min to Argostoli. one the other side, if you like walking, you could easily find some quiet routs to the sea shore to explor some beauties.

Review 31：The studios are conveniently located only a 15-minute drive from the airport and 5 minutes away from Platis & Makris Gialos, two of the island's most popular sandy beaches. The hosts were extremely welcoming, volunteered to drive us to the beach and the airport as we did not have a car. The breakfast is served near the pool and the views from the balcony of the Ionian Sea are amazing!

Review 32：Equipment in kitchenette very basic - but not a problem as excellent breakfast provided and very reasonable and plenty of places to eat on a night

Review 33：Warmth, friendliness and helpfulness of staff Car hire The view from the apartment The BBQ The pool An "honesty fridge" for drinks Local knowledge and excellent English spoken by all staff

Review 34：Please do not confuse these apartments with other apartments of a similar name in Lassi.

Review 35：The Panorama Fanari Apartments are fabulous apartments. Dionisis is extremely friendly, kind and helpful and he and his team went out of their way to make our holiday experience just so wonderful. The view from the apartments is truly outstanding. We have no hesitation in recommending.

Review 36：The breakfast options weren't amazing but satisfactory

Review 37：The owner was amazingly friendly and couldn't do enough to help us. The location was perfect and it felt like home!

Review 38：We stayed one night before returning on a late flight. Friendly owner welcomed us to use the pool and showers until early eve on day 2, then gave us a lift into town to a restaurant with our luggage! Pleasant quiet location near the Italian memorial, but still easily walkable into town.

Review 39：Convenient location, hospitality and professional assistance in any question, general and room facilities, car rent possibility, friendship spirit and magic nature ......................

Review 40：Sometimes we had strong wind, which apparently is not so unusual. However if makes temperature quite acceptable.

Review 41：Argostoli is the right place to stay in Kefalonia, since leaving from there you can easily reach the several, fantastic beaches of the island, one of them, Makris Gialos Beach, at 10' driving distance. Panorama studios is located on the hill behind Argostoli, with a very nice view of the bay and of Lixouri village in front. The premises are spacious, with a pleasant garden and a swimming pool with bar and breakfast tables. Our room was perfect, with windows on two sides and a balcony with an exceptional view. Also the bathroom had a window. The owners, Dionisis and Makis, have been very kind with us. For instance they took care of jumper cables and power when our battery failed. Also they printed our boarding pass as required by the air company.

Review 42：. Keys on the door (no welcome) . No breakfast when we were there . Hard to find (with gps and a car)

Review 58：Dionysis was so helpful, great location, great service

Review 59：No reception, had to call The Owner to come Poor wifi

Review 60：Decent breakfast Good location Quiet area Good value Great staff

Review 61：Kitchen, balcony, washing machine and so on

Review 62：... very friendly guy. Great view. In Kefalonia car is "must have". You can rent it from the apartments owner.

Review 63：No real kitchen area, just a sink/bar fridge/hotplate cupboard in the entryway. No place to store any food or to prepare anything. Microwave stored in the cupboard under the sink but no where to put it to use it! Apartment felt cramped compared to others we had. No where to eat if too cool to sit on the balcony. Garbage was not emptied daily even though toilet paper can't go in toilet.

Review 64：We booked the car & stay package for 2 nights. Dionisis is a superb host who would go the extra mile to make sure that the guests have most pleasant stay. Knowing that we are celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary, he upgraded us to the suite which is a 2-bed apartments. The apartment is very well maintained and has superb water view. It is about 1km from Argostoli at the edge of town and has a nice village feels to it. I would highly recommend the apartment to anyone looking for affordable luxury in or around Argostoli.

Review 65：Car hire is essential (unless one wishes to rely on taxis), as it is a good mile into town on a steep, unlit country road. Wi-fi reception is fitful.

Review 66：Wonderful view over the bay in a country environment. Well-appointed apartment. The owner is friendly and very helpful with an entrepreneurial spirit.

Review 67：Stayed for a week, package included a hire car. Met at airport, apartmet was about a 20min drive. Our room overlooked the bay, room clean and tidy, quiet location away from the main tourist We didnt use the pool, seemed to have a "green" problem, lots of Great restaurants near by. The owner is very helpful and has regular BBQ evenings for family and guests, highly recommend you attend...plenty of freshly cooked fish and meat and drinks.. .

Review 68：The Greek people were absolutely wonderful second to none helpful fun loving delightful in every way so much so we are returning next year nothing was wrong with this hol but you really need a car.

Review 69：Difficult to find our way back to the studios in the dark after dinner on the first night, but the solution as always was get a taxi (6 euro) After that we could find our own way.

Review 70：Comfortable rooms with adequate facilities for making breakfast. Quiet position with a view of the bay, The 15min walk up the hill after eating in town was good for us.

Review 71：Our stay at Panorama felt as though we were staying with family. We have been travelling for two months now and had great experiences with most place we have stayed, but our time at Panorama with Dionisis and his family was exceptional with the friendliness and service they provided us. We will be guaranteed to return to Panorama for any future stays at Kefalonia. Thank you once again for your outstanding service.

Review 72：There is nothing not to like... The accommodation was fantastic!

Review 73：Panorama is a wonderful accommodation, set in a beautiful location andrun by lovely family man. You will not be disappointed if you book tostay at the Panorama Fanari. The accommodation has the best views wehave ever had during our visits to Kefalonia and the room we stayed inwas fantastic. The room itself was fairly small, however the space wasused very well and at no point did we feel crammed. The room facilitieswere the best we have had in an apartment. There was even foodprocessor! - Dionysis, who owns the accommodation, is very welcoming andfriendly. We were getting married while on the island and so had anumber of friends and family visiting the island at the same time. Assuch ourselves and a small group of our friends attended theaccommodation's pool bbq one evening... It was a brilliant eveningand ludicrous value for money! In sum, we would highly recommend thisaccommodation to anyone visiting the Lassi/Argostoli area.

Review 74：We were unlucky with the restaurants in Argostoli (unfriendly staff, low quality despite the good first impressions of the restaurants) and we were unlucky with Ionian Pelagos ferries; departure of ferry Sami-Ithaka was a few hours earlier than their distributed schedule (missed it), despite the fact that we checked in Sami two days in advance. Tourist services on Kefalonia are clearly much worse than on neighboring islands Corfu and Zakynthos. Panorama-apartments is a clear exception: very friendly and helfull staff.

Review 75：Excellent location, nice swimming pool, very good apartment and very friendly staff.

Review 76：Great location with nice view over the bay. 2min drive from downtown and at the same time set in a peaceful and quiet environment. Owner is very nice and he makes all the effort to ensure you have a pleasant stay.

Review 77：We had a great stay at Panorama studios staff was so helpful & friendly. Rooms had everything you needed with a great balcony. Great little studio apartment. Would defiantly stay again

Review 78：Owner's commitment to helping and providing service above and beyond location is perfect for what we wanted views price/value can't be beat

Review 79：Dionysis who runs Panorama is nothing short of being a God ofhospitality. From arrival to departure he insisted on making my comforthis priority - many thanks. I enjoyed the location, along the 800m walkto Argostoli there are some breathtaking views, some moving memorials tothe Aqui Division and many nice bars and mini-markets for groceries.Taking a turn the other side of the headland one reaching some gorgeoussandy beaches and coves with crystal clear water, olive groves andunspoilt countryside. I found all the local people I met charming andfriendly, I was in fact humbled. I fell in love with Kefalonia and lookforward to returning. The apartments are well equipped and serviceddaily by a multi-lingual made and the views are indeed panoramic!

Review 80：The manager Dion is a very kind man! Quite and good sea view room. Free transfer from/to airport.

Review 81：What a beautiful view from the balcony! Excellent service at the hotel. Thanks for a nice holiday!

Review 82：The situation is perfect for a relaxing holiday. The owner couldn't have been more helpful - all in all a wonderful low key holiday.
