Beautiful greek house in Pelopones

Beautiful greek house, nothing fancy, with all you need, excellent option for a family. A large terrace with a splendid view to the garden and sea. Perfect beaches nearby if you're looking for quiet and solitude standing. I'll be glad to spend some time again here.

Fully equipped private home, air condition, big balcony with bougainvilleas all over.

Nice house, two nice sandy beaches about 2km. away. There you find a café or restaurant where you can use deck chairs and umbrellas on the beach for free. Good starting point for excursions to archeological sites. Tip: Olympia is very crowded, much nicer with many more and better preserved artefacts to see is Messini to the South. Methoni is also worth a trip. We did not meet the owners in person since they were in Athens at the time, but they left us a very nice note with three bottles of wine and enough food in the fridge for breakfast and made us welcome by phone. The only drawback: It is a bit noisy because it is close to the main road.

La maison est toujours très bien

Après un premier séjour en 2017, nous avons réitéré en 2018, preuve que l'endroit est très bien. Bon point pour partir en excursion dans tout le Péloponnèse (cette année Messène, Mystra, Le Magne, Mycènes, etc.) et la plage à environ 1 km est toujours peu peuplée (d'ailleurs surtout des touristes grecs), grande et propre. Seul point négatif : la route qui borde la maison devient de plus en plus bruyante (beaucoup de trafic) à toute heure de la journée, parfois pénible selon les moments. Et le bougainvillier qui grimpe sur le balcon était complètement sec cette année: un peu triste pour de si belles fleurs que l'on n'arrive pas à faire pousser chez nous.

A place with very personal touch

We have just finished a one week stay here and absolutely loved it. When we arrived, we were met by the owners parents. They took time to shown us around, explained how things work, and answered any questions. Speaking English is not an issue. They were very thoughful in that they supplied us with breakfast items for the following day. The wine was also a very nice touch. Arriving in late afternoon and not having to grocery shop until the next day, was a gift to us. During our stay, we always had quick access to the owner, if needed. We were actually contacted by the owner, Nikos, to both welcome us and to see if we were fine and also on leaving, he contacted us to make sure things went well. We found the accommodations very clean and comfortable to stay. The wi-fi was very fast and met any needs we required. The nearby beach is apparently the longest beach on the Peloponnese. It was very pretty setting. It was located about 2km away. Accessable by car, or we preferred to walk via quite small roadways. The town of Zacharo was very close and had all we needed, to get supplies. We got fresh fish from a fishery store that was just awesome. English was not common, but for me, it adds to the flavour. Struggling through a foreign language and getting the result of your request, makes it that much sweeter. All in all, I highly recommend staying here. You can see that the family/owners clearly love their place and want it taken care of, and in turn, they took care us. You will not be sorry. Enjoy Robert (Canada)

A soul property!

I have to say that I'm not used to stay in the same place two holidays in a row, ever! BUT I COULDN'T RESIST! Beautiful places, excellent beaches, not crowded, exquisite if you want to find your peace. House warm and beautiful as I knew it and the welcoming warm and friendly. I cannot say that I will be able to resist come here again.

Accueil très agréable et maison parfaite

Très bel endroit. La maison est très propre, spacieuse, avec tout le confort et l'utilitaire complet. La vue est magnifique au milieu des oliviers et l'accès est facile. La maison surmonte un autre petit logement de vacances qui appartient à un membre de la famille des propriétaires, que nous avons eu l'occasion de côtoyer et qui étaient charmants. La route qui longe la propriété est parfois un peu bruyante (mais rien à voir avec une grande ville! Il s'avère que nous vivons pour ainsi dire à la campagne, donc cela faisait un peu plus de bruit), mais on s'y habitue vite, tout comme aux coqs des environs qui chantent tous les matins au lever du soleil. Plage de sable fin et mer très propre à moins d'un kilomètre. Site d'Olympie à 40 minutes en voiture, temple de Bassae (le mieux conservé de Grèce) à 1h10, gorges de Loussios à 2h15. Une très belle région pour des vacances variées pour ceux qui apprécient la mer, mais aiment aussi agrémenter leur séjour de quelques balades et visites.

Lovely and comfortable house

We - a family of four - had a very good time in this lovely house. We received a warm welcome by the very nice owners, who had even done some shopping for us and surprised us with home-made biological wine. The house is very comfortable and has a beautiful garden, with flowers and fruit and olive trees. From the terrace you can see the Mediterranean. This coast offers miles of quiet and sandy beaches, and the beach of the nice village of Kakovatos is very nearby. You will also find some good tavernas there. We enjoyed doing our daily shopping in Zacharo. We saw few tourists there and in the area, which suited us just fine :) The archaeological sites of Olympia and Vassae are not far away, and we made some beautiful trips through the mountains. Many thanks to Nikos and his parents for their hospitality. We hope to return some day!
