Travelled with my husband during first week of season at beginning of May 2012. The Makis is made up of 5 separate blocks. The main one you see in Thomson brochure is the Reception/Bar/breakfast terrace which overlook the pool. The remaining 4 blocks are numbered for rooms 100, 200, 300 and 400's. We were in Room 410 which is on... More

Stayed in Skala for two weeks late June 2011.Gong back in 2012 but not to the Makis Hotel. The Hotel is on the sea front facing the fantastic beach, and only minutes away from the village with it's bars and tavernas. The hotel's pool area, the bar and public areas are very nice. Angelos works on reception, he also cleans... More

We stayed in the Makis hotel in June 2011, and celebrated our first wedding anniversary on this beautiful Island. Hotel was in a great location, just across the road from the beach and a short walk from Skala which meant you were out of the hustle and bustle, but not too far away from it. Rooms were clean and tidy,... More

My husband and I originally booked the Makis as a cheap last minute getaway in May. We were so overwhelmed by the hospitality, cleanliness, gorgeous breakfast, stunning views etc that we cancelled our plans to celebrate my 40th at the 'Wynn' in Las Vegas, where we have stayed many times before, and chose to return here instead. Five star luxury... More

I stayed in this hotel at the start of May 2010. I have nothing bad to say about it! Wonderful holiday! Hotel is lovely and clean, hotel staff are sooo lovely and make you feel very at home! The food served is very nice, lots of options. We took part in the watersports across the road from the hotel, great... More

We spent two weeks here in early September. Very nice hotel, run by lovely people. Literally just across the road from the excellent beach. Staff were unfailingly friendly, polite & helpful. Angelo the barman makes a particularly fine mojito by the way. Denis the owner is really nice too, but watch him; he's a bit of a prankster! Breakfast was... More

Recently back from celebrating a "special" birthday here. Well run, clean hotel with easy access to the beach and local restaurants. Our second visit to Skala. Excellent value, we are not used to having beach sunbeds, safe and air con included in the price unless going more upmarket. All helps with the spending money! Friendly staff and beautiful island.

My wife and I spent two weeks here 6-20 sept 2011. Thought we had found the perfect place in Menorca but glad we strayed to Kefalonia. We have done the kids bit and now like more of a "couples" holiday. First time we have ever been met off the transfer coach. Angelo the English speaking barman made us feel very... More

My husband and I went to the Thursday evening "Hollis rock show" while we were staying in Skala - lovely seating area surrounding the pool and pool bar - a very enjoyable time. Coming back again next year and hoping this entertainer will be booked for this hotel again.
