Only 250 metres away from the sandy beach of Stoupa, this hidden gem invites guests to enjoy a taste of traditional Greece alongside all of the modern home comforts required to kick back and relax with ease. First thing's first, we love the unique multi-levelled terrace and garden spaces here. Surrounded by an abundance of Mediterranean flowers, the natural environment of the villa offers a serene ambience to soak up utter seclusion. From the covered alfresco dining area to the patio lounge seating area, hammock, outside kitchen and lawned sunbathing terrace – each corner of the garden reveals a different atmospheric perching spot. Meanwhile, the home's interior features exposed stone and wooden beams alongside tiled flooring and white furniture – offering guests an authentic slice of the Mediterranean lifestyle from the moment you put down your bags. And with your location in the heart of Mani Peninsula, you'll get a real flavour of Greece here, with an abundance of natural beauty and many seaside restaurants and beach bars to sample. This part of Greece is recognised for its picturesque villages and breathtakingly beautiful beaches – but with Stoupa as your base, there'll be little need to venture beyond the town if you truly are looking to stay in one place. With the sea located two minutes from the villa in one direction and the local supermarket just two minutes away in the other direction – what more could you need?
