Welcome to ANCHOR STUDIOS A complex of comfortable and modern studios and apartments wait for you in Kounopetra,Lixouri, only 350 meters away from the beach. You can have the most beautiful holiday of your life in a friendly environment among the pines smelling the fresh air of the Ionian sea. Our Studios were built in June 2002 and are still new and modern. All of the apartments and studios have front and rear balconies. Large parking facilities available for you to park your car.
The ANCHOR STUDIOS are located in the Lixouri region at the west side of Kefalonia. Lixouri is one of two big cities on the island. It was first mentioned as Lixari in 1534, in a complaining document to the English senate.
The Kounopetra of Kefalonia island, also known as the “stone that moves”, is a natural phenomenon of its kind that is unique worldwide. The Kounopetra consists of alarge flat-shaped rock that comes just from the sea and is located in the west of Kefalonia, opposite the village of Manzavinata. Since the past has attracted the attention and curiosity of many scientists, so that the distinguished scholar GreekKostantakatos describes the Kounopetra as follows: “The Kounopetra is a gigantic monolithic rock with a circumference of 20 meters just emerging from the sea and moves constantly from east to west. The slow move of the rock is visible from the coast, but stationed on it is even possible to hear the vibrations; the Kounopetra moves with a frequency of 20 times per minute. This amazing rock, which since 1867 has gradually moved away from the coast, has been in the past an attempt by the British navy to tow it away, but has turned into a stalemate. With the terrible earthquake of 1953 there has been a shift at the base of Kounopetra that has since taken a firm stance
