Photos and Description of the Agios Nikolaos vacation house rental 2 Bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 4 -5

Set amid olive trees, the house is a stone tower house, newly built in the traditional Mani style, but with all modern conveniences. The bedrooms are downstairs so they benefit from the cooler air in summer, and the bathroom and separate WC are also on the ground floor. The sitting room has French doors which open onto the balcony, which has a barbecue and super views to the sea and along the coast to Agios Nikolaos and Agios Dimitrios. The kitchen is small (but perfectly formed!) with fridge, sink, electric cooker and washer/dryer. It is fully equipped with crockery, cutlery, glassware, linen, electric kettle and toaster. The sitting/dining room has an open fireplace and electric radiator for the winter months. There is a double sofa bed which can sleep an additional person if required, and the dining table seats six. The master bedroom has a double bed and fitted wardrobes & the second bedroom has twin beds and freestanding wardrobe. French doors lead to the patio and garden.

The house is 10 min stroll from Pantazi beach, a sandy beach fringed and shaded by tamarisk trees, which has a beach bar in summer and a taverna all year. Pantazi is in between the village of Agios Dimitrios and the picturesque fishing village of Agios Nikolaos, which has several supermarkets, tavernas & bars, a post office, pharmacy and clinic. The Taigetos Mountains run down the spine of the Mani peninsula, and there are many delightful walks in the area, from easy and flat to demanding and strenuous - all amidst wonderful scenery. Olympia is about 3 hours drive away, Monemvassia about 2.5 hours and the ruined Byzantine city of Mystras is within 2 hours drive. There are numerous charter flights into Kalamata on Sundays (May to October), and scheduled flights (Inc. Easyjet) into Athens from where it is a pleasant 4.5 hours drive through spectacular scenery. We can organise a taxi or hire car to meet you at Kalamata, or provide route information from Athens if you drive from there.

Beaucoup de style

Review Submitted: May 24, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
Nous avons passé une delicieuse semaine dans cette maison parmi les oliviers. Le style architectural de la region Mani est tout à fait respeté, le jardin tres agreable et la plage au bout d'un petit chemin (10mn). La vue sur la mer de la terrasse est tres paisible. Excellent rapport qualité / prix.
