Who would have imagined that this breathtaking house, boasting what many call the best view in the world, is nestled in the heart of Kefalonia, overlooking the iconic Myrtos Beach?
Renowned across the globe, Myrtos Beach draws thousands of visitors each year — travelers from every corner of the planet eager to experience its unparalleled beauty. And perched right above it sits what might just be the most enchanting house in all of Greece.
A Home Straight Out of a Fairytale
One of those captivated visitors was a French writer who, during his trip to Kefalonia, fell under the island’s spell. Mesmerized by the scenery, he decided to purchase a truly unique property right above the beach — a home that quickly became legendary.
Locals affectionately refer to it as “the house at Xomiti”, but online, you’ll find it under the names "Myrtilo", "Mythos", or "Wild Rose".
Where Design Meets Dreamlike Views
Inside and out, the house is dressed in calming shades of white and gray, creating a serene and sophisticated atmosphere. It features three spacious bedrooms, a modern, fully-equipped kitchen, luxurious bathrooms, and fireplaces tucked into cozy corners — all designed with comfort in mind. But the true stars of the home are its expansive terraces, which offer uninterrupted views of the vast Ionian Sea.
The architect found inspiration in the traditional stone guesthouses found nearby, blending rustic charm with elegant modernity. From the main terrace, visitors are treated to a scene so beautiful, it almost doesn’t feel real.
A Cliffside Jacuzzi Like No Other
Ask anyone who’s stayed there, and they’ll tell you: the cliffside jacuzzi is the crown jewel of the property. Suspended at the edge of the world, it’s a place where sunsets are golden, and every soak is unforgettable.
And if you ever tire of the house (though we can’t imagine how), a short stroll down takes you directly to one of Greece’s most stunning beaches — a ribbon of turquoise and white that looks like it leapt off a postcard.
With its magical location, dreamy interior, and soul-stirring views, this house isn’t just a home — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
