I really do think that there are a lot of spoiled people out there,
because this hotel is not to bad as some people would like to do believe.
If you really want all the luxury that you think you diserve, then go to the bahamas....please why always this complaining?
I have had a real good time there,and believe me..I also had my doubts....but lets face it.....our standards are not their standards,
they also must learn and improve.
I gave the hotelmanagment some ideas to make things a little better....but then I talk about minor things.
People who don`t like to walk,should not complain afterworths,because there is enough information...and the pictures in the brochures are correct.
The only negative thing is are thoose disquisting people who eat like they never ate before....take as much as possible one one plate...you know?
Well...and there is always enough!!
I have read some comments about insects...haha...what do you think there are in country`s like this? flying marsmallows?
Give me a break...! Take a glass of wine ...relax ..enjoy the views and the sun ...and don`t be picky about every detail....
and.....arrogance takes you no where....bye
A happy traveller.

This was one of the worst hotels that my husband & I have ever stayed in. The staff were very unfriendly if not down right rude! The famed Greek hospitality does not exist here. The hotel employs many eastern European students who speak very little English - they must really hate their jobs as they all refuse to make eye contact with guests let alone smile at them. The pool area toilets did not appear to have been cleaned for weeks. The food was boring, very over cooked, over salted & of very poor quality it was usually cold & there was never any fresh fruit or vegetables- one morning at breakfast there was tinned fruit which was so old it was beginning to ferment/fizz in the bowl! Food in the pool bar was very limited, expensive & poor quality - plus as others have said a less than clean area. The hotel ran out of clean towels - when we phoned reception one evening after 6.00pm to say that the towels in our room had not been changed we were told they had run out of clean linen so we had to shower with wet towels. They ran out of glasses & took the water dispenser out of the dining room to cut down. They also took the extra pillow we had asked for from our room (I have a neck condition & need extra support) & refused to give another replacement as the hotel had not got enough pillows - even though the hotel was less than half full. When we stayed many many people complained..............& one couple made a formal complaint & were aiming to get a refund once back home......... need I say more? We both felt that this hotel seemed on the brink of closure. Also as others reviewers have said the 92 steps, from pool to reception, often at a 45 degree angle, are not for the faint hearted! HOWEVER Kephalonia is superb so do not let this put you off. Just do not stay at this hotel what ever you do!!!!

We stayed for a week at the Apostolata in September 2004 and how disappointed we were. It's refreshing to read how much other guests were disappointed, we were beginning to feel it was just us. The whole place needed some TLC. The pool bar area was filthy, I wouldn't have eaten anything from there! There were mouse or rat droppings in the pool area toilets.
The hot food in the restaurant was very disappointing (always cold), we paid for a taxi into Scala for 4 evenings out of 7 to get a decent meal. (Supposed to be All Inclusive).
The hotel bar was definitely lacking in atmosphere, as was the choice of drinks.

It's a shame really because this hotel could put you off kefalonia for good and it's a beautiful island!

We should have stayed at the NINE MUSES again in Scala, it's a far superior hotel which we cannot fault at all.

This hotel is advertised by Olympic Holidays as for the discerning traveller and was priced by them accordingly. We have never stayed at such a rubbish place, service poor, pool bar run down, no food at pool bar, staff sullen, not enough sun beds for number of guests staying. The only good thing about it that we had only booked for one week. Do not believe claims that you can get to the beach directly form the property, you can't the path end at the top of a cliffe. Very disappointed will never book with that company again and would not recommend them. Please do not go its horrible.
