We had four generations together under on roof and had a wonderful time. Enjoyed the home, pool, and surrounding areas. The pool is treacherous slippery. A hand rail or traction on the stairs is desperately needed. We had old people really hurt themselves on the stairs.

Une vue sublime à 180 degrés sur la mer, y compris depuis la piscine et le jacuzzi. Maison très spacieuse, très moderne (réfrigérateur américain, TV, climatisation dans toutes les pièces). Chacun peut se reposer tranquillement dans sa chambre avec vue et/ou balcon, sans être gêné par le bruit des espaces communs. Séjour inoubliable.

This was the perfect way to escape the craziness of 2020! This villa is lovely. We travelled as two families with kids ranging from 8-17. There is plenty of space (and bathrooms) for everyone, several terraces for relaxing, eating and cocktails. Fabulous views, sunsets and pool. The area itself is relatively quiet, but in easy reach of some great restaurants. The beaches are mainly pebbles, but the water is beautiful. The nearest one is at the bottom of the hill, we were able to walk to / from it (but it’s a steep climb at the end of the day!). Our older teenagers liked the Hobo beach bar and jumping off the cliffs on the headland (there is also a little cave you can swim through!). Joanne, the host, was very helpful.

Our 2-week stay at Olive Tree House was fantastic in every way, a real first class experience, and Joanna was a superb local host. We were 2 families (8 adults and 2 teens) sharing, and found lots of space and flexibility in the accommodation, which is kitted out to a very high standard with all mod cons. We loved the location with the fabulous views, 4 very authentic-Greek Tavernas within walking distance (Taverna Anavriti was our fave...you'll need Google Maps to find it in the back streets of Megali!!), and the beaches within a short drive...Kitries is particularly picturesque. We spent many days lazing by the pool, followed by BBQs while enjoying the absolutely stunning sunsets. We loved Kalamata market for fresh meat, fish, fruit and veg, and it was great to experience a very real Greek holiday location... Highly recommended!!

Stayed for 2 weeks in August, adults , teens and kids. Very easy booking and excellent communication with Ann , the owner and Joanna, the local contact. Really helpful with all our enquiries. Couldn't have asked for better., House has everything you could need , there was really nothing that was missing. All the rooms are air conditioned and have their own private balcony space. The pool and gardens were lovely, we spent a lot of time relaxing outside. The kids loved the Apple TV and there are lots of DVDs to enjoy. The views from there house are stunning, I can’t stress this enough . Really really amazing and very calming! Ok , on to the practicalities. You MUST MUST have a car. The property is up in the hills. It’s a car drive to anywhere apart from the local restaurants. , the local village to get bread is a 5 minute drive. The nearest supermarket of decent size is at least 30 minutes away in Kalamata. When you are feeding a large group, you need lots of trips ! The local ( pebbly) beach is again about 5 mins drive, you can walk down but not back in the summer heat. There is loads of parking at the local beach. The pool at the house is shallow at one and and at least 3 m at the deep end. I am not sure how happy I would b having toddlers there as there are quite a few walls on the property with drops on the other side. Lastly we flew into Athens and it is a good 3 hour drive to the house, if you need to consider this. All in all a great holiday but be prepared to drive if you want to do any visiting.

Wir haben mit 6 Erwachsenen, 3 Teenagern und 4 Kindern eine wunderschöne Woche im Olive Tree House verbracht. Joanne hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und war stets ein guter Ansprechpartner für Tipps und Hilfe bei kleineren Problemen. Wir haben in der gut ausgestatteten Küche viel gekocht und der Kühlschrank mit dem Eiswürfelbereiter war sehr beliebt. Auf der Dachterrasse hat man einen tollen Blick in die Umgebung, den wir sehr oft genossen haben. Auch Pool und Whirlpool waren so schön, dass wir kaum das Anwesen verlassen haben. Sehr anstrengend, aber auch wunderschön war unsere Wanderung durch die Viros Schlucht. Insgesamt können wir das Haus nur empfehlen. Danke an die Eigentümer, die mit viel Liebe zum Detail einen herrlichen Ort zum Entspannen geschaffen haben! Die Kinder haben sich natürlich auch über die Tischtennisplatte, den Kicker und die DVD-Sammlung gefreut. Obwohl Schach spielen im/am Pool am Ende am Schönsten war😉

It was our second time at OTH and it was wonderful - a super house with a lovely pool and view that it a joy to wake up to.We ate in a couple of local tavernas, which were both very good; it's a hugely relaxing place. Thanks again!

We enjoyed The Olive Tree House for a week in August 2018. We were 11 people, and the house was perfect in terms of comfort, privacy, surroundings and views. Wonderful sunsets from the pool, fantastic barbecues in the garden, comfort in the great living room, the dining room, the kitchen that had everything and the bedrooms. It was very convenient to have a restaurant so close, and the supermarket is also nearby. The property manager Joanna was very kind and her help has been really useful, during and after our stay. We are very grateful. I will recommend it.

Olive Tree is beautiful and peaceful with a range of facilities to keep everyone entertained. The house was spotless surrounded by stunning mountains and sea views. We found it hard to drag ourselves away from the luxuries of the house but when we did Kalamata had plenty to offer. It's great for drinks, restaurants, activities and Sightseeing. We especially enjoyed a day at the waterfalls. I'd recommend the water sports at cosi club which is a short drive from the house. I don't normally write reviews but I was so impressed I couldn't not. The owners were a dream and just one of the factors for us going back!!

Having arrived in the middle of the night, the next morning we walked on the balcony and was staggered by beautiful views. Rolling hillsides with Olive trees, mountains in the background and a wonderful view of the Messiniakos Gulf. The view of the infinity pool and jacuzzi was eye catching too!The accommodation was perfect, we had 8 adults and 5 children in our party, all our requirements for a happy stay were met. The bedrooms were comfortable, the lounge areas were large, and the kitchen was more than adequate. We particularly like the dining area outside, and the barbecue area. The position of the villa is ideal for coastal towns and beaches. In particular Kardamili and Stoupa. The boat trip out of Kalamata to Kitries is a must. The pedalos at Kalamata were fun for the children ( ages 6 to 12 ). We also found excellent restaurants at Kardamili and Stoupa, but our best one was 300metres away on the hill above us.Excellent food and views, and wonderful service! Dirou caves are worth a visit too. On a more practical note, we found Lidl's very convenient for our main shopping, on the coast road towards Kalamata. We discovered an untapped Greece to the south of the Peloponnese, which we loved.Above all our contact Joanna was excellent, she couldn't do enough to help us enjoy our wonderful holiday

We were 2 families that rented this house for about 1 1/2 weeks and had an amazing time there. The house is large. It has a great layout and incredible views - from the pool, from the balconies, from everywhere. There was space for everyone (12 people including kids/teenagers) both inside and outside. Every bedroom was done well and comfortable to be in. The pool is close to the house and it was easy to run back and forth. The photos do not do justice to the house. The area is lovely and we didn't feel it was very touristy, which is what we had wanted. Having someone available to answer questions throughout our stay both about the house, the area, restaurants, store, etc. was very helpful. We've rented summer houses for a number of years now and everyone agreed that this was the nicest property we've been in. Definitely a place to return to!

We stayed at Olive tree house for 9 nights with a group of 12 friends. The villa was absolutely beautiful, with an amazing view, breathtaking pool, jacuzzi and really nice seating areas for eating and socializing with our group. Indoors were great too, it was easy to cook for such a big group, the AC worked well and the beds were comfy. All communication with the owners and the local contact was easy and helpful. All of us who stayed at the villa were extremely happy with the choice and will recommend Olive tree house to anyone who is looking for a relaxing holiday in Greece!

Absolutly beautiful villa! Spacious with a fantastic sea view in a quiet area, infinity pool and great outdoor area with bbq facility, hot tub, seating areas and balconys. Rooms are spacious and clean with a modern on suit bathrooms. The living areas are comfortable and large enough to cook and socialise if you would prefer to stay in. The villa has everything you need it's like a home from home and has air con which is a blessing when it's hot! It is in a fab location, around 25-30 mins drive to the airport which is great! Shops, bars and restaurants aren't far either if you want to go out for lunch or dinner, we hired a car during our stay which was helpful. I also felt safe staying at the villa as it has a private Gate and security alarm. I would definitely stay again and recommend, there is plenty to do in the area and the villa is in the perfect location.

We hired the villa as a family group aged from 2 to 60, wanting to experience real Greece away from the typical tourist traps. My family totally adored the villa and call it the 5 star heaven. The owners have thought of everything to keep all the family entertained from the fantastic infinity pool, games, a kitchen equipped for any eventuality to the wonderful air conditioning. The local tavernas and shops were exceptionally welcoming as were the staff who look after the property, all of whom made my family feel like they were in a home away from home.. It is simply the best.

We were totally taken aback when we arrived at the house, it was even better than the pictures. The bedrooms are all large with ensuites and balconies and the views from the balconies are to die for. The well equipt kitchen is also huge, perfect for cooking for large numbers. The double height living room with large flatscreen tv, good range of DVDs and comfortable sofas got a lot of use on the rare occassion it rained. But the best part was the infinity pool, we spent many a day and night around it, in it and admiring it. A great place to watch the beautiful sunsets and sunrises. We also had a BBQ every night and sat out under the stars drinking the local wine. The house is so good we barely left, only to get supplies and for a dip in the sea. There are plenty of things to do in the region and we went on one day trip but couldn't wait to get to back to the pool. You definately need a car to get here as it is quite isolated. We drove from Athens, an easy 3 1/2 hour drive and plenty of things to see on the way. It was an amazing holiday and I would highly recommend it, in fact I think we will go back next year.
