About this house rental
Truly breathtaking views of sea, beach, castle and mountains. Secluded location, on private path but less than one min walk to Zaga beach. Large traditional style house, in two spacious separate apartments connected by external staircase with extensive balcony upstairs with views over sea, castle and mountains to Mani. Downstairs sitting room has large terrace for sunbeds, eating and view over garden and partial view of sea. Garden has large dining area on terrace for al fresco eating. Only 15 mins walk to historic Koroni harbour with its colourful waterfront tavernas and shops. Large, private sun terrace set in a spacious garden with olive and lemon trees. Two huge living rooms with fully fitted kitchens. One first floor double bedroom with A/C, two twin bedded double rooms on lower floor with ceiling fans, one with A/C. Two bathrooms and two kitchens, large sitting rooms and wonderful balcony. House is reached by footpath with some steps, steep in parts so no passing traffic and magical tranquility; just the sound of sea at night. Travel reasonably light as it is 400m to road and parking above at school or 200m flat walk along beach by beach bar, but the seclusion and proximity to beach and amenities are worth it. Not suitable for very young children.
House is well stocked for all holiday needs, has books, maps, sun umbrellas, loungers and games.
Please note there is NO WIFI. The nearest internet connection in the summer is the beach bar about 200 metres along the beach. Nearly all the cafes, restaurants and bars in Koroni have wifi and are happy for you to sit with a drink and use it.
Drainage: On no account can any paper, sanitary materials etc be put down the toilets. We are on natural drainage and if the pipes are blocked the current occupiers will be held responsible. So you will need to use the bins provided as with most of Greece.
Rubbish: Rubbish needs to be taken from the house and placed in the bins by beach bar about 150m or in the bins at top of path. Good idea to do daily as in hot weather it can encourage wildlife!

Right by a beautiful beach, with the sound of cicadas all around. This 2 storey house is far from any traffic (it's a substantial walk up narrow paths to the lovely.town, good exercise but hot in the summer) and feels like part of a special flower-filled beach community. The house itself has delightful views to the sea across olive and other trees. Many windows and shutters. Narrow balcony around 3 sides. The air con as effective. The accomodation is not fancy, but it is functional, although the balcony chairs could do with being replaced. We loved it but don't expect luxury fittings. Really interesting guide books and maps. Backgammon and other games much appreciated.

If you like the sea, this is the property for you. Fantastic place to swim and enjoy the sea. It is quite hard to access the house but probably one of the reasons why the beach is so fantastic.

We had a wonderful holiday in Koroni. Our accommodation was perfect, plently of space for all the family, well equipped and stunning views.

Everything we could have wanted for a superb week in the sun. The beach being just a couple of minutes walk was a huge bonus. Lovely uninterrupted views of the sea.

This is a lovely house in a peaceful spot very close to the beach. The beautiful garden surrounding the house and the wonderful balcony overlooking the sea make this a really relaxing place to stay. Koroni is 10 minutes walk away. We hope to be back!

The property was perfect for our holiday. Lovely garden, great setting, wonderful views from the balcony. We loved the easy access to the beach (2 minutes) and looking out for stray hatching turtles - we were lucky on two mornings, but need to get up early for that.
The property had enough to be comfortable and to allow us to barbecue. Richard's map and advice were really helpful.
Koroni had enough restaurants and shops.
Thank you

The house is situated 3 minutes walk from the spectacular, Loggerhead Turtle nesting site of Zaga beach just outside Koroni in the Peloponnese. It is very peaceful here and one can hear the sound of the sea lapping on the shore
The house has uninterrupted 180 degree views of the sea from the upstairs shady veranda.
The owners use this as their own holiday home & it is well kitted out.
Split into separate upstairs & downstairs apartments which both have kitchens & indoor sitting/ eating space, full size electric ovens with 4 rings, generous size fridge freezer, electric kettle, toaster & plenty of utensils, pots & pans.
Upstairs is a double bedroom with air conditioning & good storage space. There is bathroom with a hand held shower & bath, toilet & washbasin.
The owners have many guide books & maps and have been very helpful in providing useful information for us including a hand made map of Koroni highlighting the key places to eat, drink & visit.
The downstairs apartment consists of 2 twin bedrooms with ceiling fans and a bathroom with a hand held shower & bath, toilet & washbasin.
The Zaga Beach Taverna is located about 200 metres along the beach. The path up to the top of the hill is fairly steep in places but takes less than 10 minutes and once there a Mini market is a further minute away which can provide for most of one's needs. Walking into Koroni takes around 15 minutes on the road.
Overall a very good property in a fantastic tranquil location.

Thank you Lauren for a great week. The house contained everything we needed. The access is a bit of a challenge but we were made aware of it before we booked. It is within walking distance of good restaurants and a secluded beach. The upstairs balcony looks over the sea and it is a peaceful and relaxing place to sit in the evening, chatting and enjoying a glass of good greek wine.

We have stayed at the house twice - once in the summer of 2006 and once in October 2009. The weather was fab for both visits, which was great, as the house is on a lovely beach (with turtles!). Very private location, within walking distance of the town, which has some lovely restaurants and bars. The house itself has all of the necessary amenities, and comfortably sleeps 6 with lots of living space. You can either fly to Kalamata or to Athens and hire a car; we have done both.
In all, this makes a perfect holiday for small groups of friends or young families seeking relaxation. We love it there!
