Small town but with a lot of character #beach
View from the top of the fortress Fourio in Cephalonia, Greece. Easy paved path makes for a wheelchair friendly hike to top of this fort. Worth the effort. Stunning view.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (201 reviews)
Our second stay, room a little tired. The breakfast is very good, staff helpful and friendly. We loved the adults only pool. The only this that spoilt it was the penny pinching attitude to in-room drinks; charging €1 each for tea bags is beyond mean! We went out and bought our own.

Sami is a great place to stay for a holiday, it has everything you need but not too touristy. You can access all the other villages easily and amazing beaches surround it!

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

A pretty port with quiet pebbly beaches where the water is clear and clean. Many great tavernas with fresh fish and local delicious food.

5/5 - Excellent

Mick

A relay friendly relaxed port town with great dinning options. This is not a lively place (loud music etc) which suites me just fine. I will be returning.

Lovely town which despite tourism has still retained its Greek charm. Lots to keep you busy and good transport links. Will return again soon.
