Avithos resort is a brand new complex built in the traditional Kefalonian style, set in spacious gardens and grouped around a large swimming pool. The resort is located in southern Kefalonia close to Avithos beach. This is a lovely, fertile region where olive trees and citrus orchards abound. The coastline faces the tiny island of Dias and offers magnificent views to the island of Zakynthos across the channel.
The resort's location makes an ideal setting for a peaceful and tranquil holiday. The nearby village of Svoronata is never crowded with tourists so there are no intrusive noises or sights to hamper your relaxation and private time.

The nearby villages of Kaligata, Kourkoumelata and Metaxata are charming local villages each with its own character and history.
