Perantzada Hotel
Getting there
- Planes There is no airport on Ithaca, so you’ll need to fly to neighbouring Kefalonia. There are direct flights from London Gatwick and various regional airports in the UK with Monarch (www.monarch.co.uk) and Thomson (http://flights.thomson.co.uk). If you’re arriving from elsewhere, you’ll probably have to fly to Athens and catch a domestic flight to Kefalonia with Aegean Airlines (www.aegeanair.com) or Olympic Air (www.olympicair.com). From Kefalonia airport, it’s less than an hour's drive/taxi ride to the port, then a 30-minute ferry hop to Vathi. The hotel can arrange full transfers from the airport, including cars to and from the harbour, for €70.
- Automobiles It’s difficult to hire a car on Ithaca, so if you want some wheels it’s easier to pick them up on Kefalonia, and take the ferry across. There is National rental desk at the airport (www.nationalcar.co.uk).
- Others If you’re island-hopping around Greece there are car and passenger ferry services to Vathi from Kefalonia, Patra, Astakos (near Athens) and Lefkada. If you don’t want to share a deck with anyone else, you can charter the hotel’s private speedboat for €150, one-way.
