Lixouri Hotels and Accommodation
Lixouri is the second largest town on the Ionian island of Cephalonia, to the west of mainland Greece, and has a population of around 3000 inhabitants. It is situated on the southwestern peninsula of Paliki on the site of the ancient city of Pali, and is built around a port. The greatest part of the town, and most of its beautiful Venetian buildings, were sadly destroyed during the earthquake which shook the area in 1953, although the library and icon museum, housed in an old mansion, did survive and are well worth a visit. The area also has some of the best beaches that the island has to offer, particularly those at Lepeda, Xi and Mega Lakos.
Customers of EasyToBook.com who choose to visit this stunning island, made famous as the setting for the book and the film Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, are assured of excellent accommodation at discount hotels. Using your hotel in Lixouri as your base, you will be free to visit the largest town, the capital of Cephalonia, Argostoli. Here you will find most of the island’s nightlife, as well as cafés, tavernas, banks, hotels and shops. Just outside Poros, you will find the tomb of Odysseus, and in the village of Assos you can visit a Venetian Citadel. Assos, incidentally, is also called the Honeymoon Village, as it was here that Prince Charles and Lady Diana stopped off in their yacht as newlyweds. A paradise for nature lovers, Cephalonia is an island which visitors return to year after year, and it remains one of the most lush and majestic of the Greek islands.
