Most supermarkets in Kefalos are well stocked if youre looking for tourist shops theres a few up in the village, not sure what end of Kefalos you're staying but there's a fantasic shop called ART HOUSE SUN the club med end it's on the same side of the road as club med just before Jimmys supermarket it sells jewelery,ceramics,paintings,hand made items,bags just to name a few things lt's like an aladdins cave and very well priced, very different from your usual supermarket/tourist shop tat and you'll not find one thing that says I LOVE KEFALOS

If I have the right hotel it's called HERMES i've found a web address4u hermes@kefalos.com or hermeshtl@hol.gr or failing that a phone number +302242071102 Hope this info helps

The prices for food & drink in Kefalos are very similar to Zante, there are some lovely  restaurants all with very friendly owners. I always find it very cheap to eat & drink, though fresh fish Can be pricey. Where are you going to stay in Kefalos? I can let you know where some of my favourites are. 

Also the ATM machines i've found reliable & there's a bank up in the village with a machine. Travellers cheques can be changed very easily in many places, I always change mine in Manolis car hire the commision rate is always good only usually is a couple of euros, they have 2 shops so doesn't really matter what end of Kef you're staying. They're also great for car hire only 20 euros a day for nice car with air con & usually give discounts for a week or more hire.

     Hope this helps you.

The Stop In is great with a lovely owner, The Wave and also Captain Johns they're all fairly near to you.

I couln't have said it better myself you have summed Kefalos up perfectly. I also plan to live in Kefalos as soon as possible I love it , I visit 2 -4 times a year. I also stay the same end of Kefalos as you  it's the best end away from the main bars so you can go home & chill after a great night out. Is also the best end for the beach less shingle & I love to walk along the beach & ruins late evening is very peaceful. We're due to go again for 2weeks in October I can't wait we're counting the days!

Is a lovely peaceful end to stay about a ten min walk to main resort for restaurants/bars but is a pleasant walk or you could be lazy like me and hire a car. You have the best gift shop in Kefalos practically on your doorstep the 'ART HOUSE SUN' I often help out in there when i'm around  so if  you get served by a 30 something!!!!! dark haired woman make yourself known. Hope you have a fantastic time.

Yes that was me. I do remember your son and you and your candle holder wire with coloured stones. were you on the same flight home as me, to Bristol?  It's my boyfriends shop(before that he was a waiter in a restaurant just up the road, it's closed at the mo but was called aghios stefanos if anyone out there remembers him he was quite popular) it's only his 2nd year open but he's getting really disheartend cause kefalos seems even quieter than last year & people just don't seem to want to spend their money(obviously haven't got my obsession with shopping). It would be a crime if he has to close it's the only decent gift shop in Kefalos. Was that your 1st time to Kef?

 

I like your sons style! Kids eh!!!! I have a few of my own, they dominate the cases when we go away. Have just managed to get some time off work so back out to Kos 6th Aug for a week - can't wait!!!!!!!!! You don't live in Somerset do you?? saw a boy very similar to your son today.

Take care
