This is the most beautiful place our family has ever vacationed in.
We were here with four of our kids between 12 and 25 - and they all loved it! Lot's of table tennis, table soccer playing and outdoor chess between swimming in sea&pool.
The house and the tower are set in a 10.000 m2+ (3 acres) nicely kept garten, 100 meters from a beach of pure sand, empty for miles and with crystal clear water. The property is situated in the middle of an EU-sponsored national park - delta of the Evrotas river, bird&sea turtle sancuary. "Seas" of orange and olive trees around. The next house is a mile away - and is a rural restaurant set right on the beach. Nice walk!
Nature meets culture here - the house offering a vast library of art books, a grand piano (freshly tuned, no less) and all technical amenities. The WLAN is slow - perfect for reading instead of the usual gaming for the kids.
Also, this is a cozy and highly tasteful family home, not a property developed for tourists. Rare privilege to stay at such a place.
The last kilometer on the access road is quite bumpy but safely doable with a normal car if you take care. We did not meet any mosquitos here! House&pool perfectly clean.
Greatly hosted by Jacqueline, the nice grandmother, who even personally introduced us to Monemvasia, a must-see. Thank you very much!
Excellent restaurants and sights pointed out in a guest-brief. Our favourites were the tavern in Drosopighi and in the small harbour of Eleia. Use of the maps supplied here is advised - our navigation system had trouble with the transcription of the Greek spelling of places here.
We intend to be back.
Highly recommended!
