The southern Peloponnese is known for its beautiful golden beaches, charming old-world villages and archaeological sites steeped in history. And from this spot in Valira, you'll be well-placed to make the most of it. Hop in the car to explore this picturesque region and you'll find something new at every turn. Head to Bouka Beach for a dip in the sea (just 18km away), nibble on the namesake olives in Kalamata's local eateries or step back in time at the ruins in Ancient Messene. 

Whatever you get up to, you'll love returning to this cosy home after a long day. Open a bottle of Greecian wine and enjoy it alfresco on the patio, breathing in the fresh air. Better yet, take a seat on the balcony and watch the sun dip below Valira's horizon as you dig into a feast prepared on the barbecue. The two outside spaces are hard to resist, but the open-plan layout inside is just as relaxing. Everyone can kick back, put their feet up and chill out together until bedtime, when the comfortable bedrooms are sure to be calling your name.

This cute little studio sits within the olive-grove countryside of the Peleponnese. With its own private terrace, you can gaze out over ancient olive trees, rugged hills and a patchwork of farmland. Out here, it’s pure peace and quiet, but you can head to Kritika Beach, a five-minute drive or half-hour walk away for a day on this popular stretch of sand. Or, head into the buzzing coastal town of Methoni for local tavernas and an ancient castle overlooking the beach (it’s a seven-minute drive).

Days here are designed to be spent outdoors. Your little studio may be kitted out with everything you need for a relaxing break – a full kitchen, comfy bed and distinctly Greecian traditional decor – but it’s the terrace that takes the biscuit. Flamingo-pink patio furniture enjoys an exceptional view of the surrounding countryside. Then there are the shared facilities for the whole complex. A turquoise pool invites you for a dip, and there’s a bar onsite for sundowners, snacks and your morning coffee.

This spectacular villa is sure to provide the perfect backdrop for your summer holiday. Just one look out over the water from your private pool deck will let you know you’re in a truly special place. This home is located 30 metres from the beach, and just outside pretty Petalidi, a little coastal village that offers a dreamy break to beach lovers and cobblestone street explorers alike. It offers the ideal retreat to return to when not out exploring the idyllic coast of this Greek haven.

Start your day by venturing out along the underground passage that goes directly from your home to the beach, and watch the sun come up over the gorgeous blue waves of the Messenian Gulf while you paddle on the shore. Come back up to your modern dwelling to grab yourself a delicious breakfast of Greek yoghurt with honey and granola, and tuck in at your stylish dining set. Make yourself up an ouzo cocktail and sit out on your stunning pool deck while gazing out over the sparkling sea view. Cool off from the midday sun with some lengths of your private pool, before reclining back on your hanging lounger chair. As the evening rolls in, make a pitcher of sundowners and sit out together on your outdoor table and chairs, and enjoy uninterrupted views of the sunset. 

Sunsets & Silhouettes

Nestled within a garden of olive trees with views across the Taïgetos mountains, everything about this home celebrates the rustic beauty of its setting.

Inside, the interiors are refreshingly simple with vistas that will leave you feeling captivated by the charm of the Peloponnese.

The picturesque port is also nearby and provides the perfect opportunity to mingle with locals in traditional tavernas. And for explorations further afield, the region is brimming with beautiful beaches, coves, picturesque hilltop villages and spectacular hiking trails. 

Wherever the day takes you, this home provides a sanctuary to rest, relax and enjoy the simple pleasures of coastal living. Gather for dreamy sunset drinks, enjoy cooking with fresh local produce in the fully equipped kitchen or rustle up a treat on the barbecue. And when you’re ready to retreat back inside, the air-conditioned rooms set the tone for a peaceful night’s rest, while the fire in the living room will keep you cosy in cooler months.

Balcony / Patio

This magnificent villa is nestled within a 13,000 square meter landscape covered with over 200 olive trees. Designed by a renowned architectural firm, it offers breathtaking views of the bay of Navarino and is a short drive from Kalamata's old town. The villa boasts modern lines, refined decor, and large sliding windows that provide ample natural light and panoramic views of the Ionian Sea from every room. Guests can relax in shaded outdoor lounges by the lengthy infinity pool or explore the nearby beaches and four golf courses located less than a kilometre away. Apart from ample outdoor space, there’s also a dedicated cinema room inside.

Grecian Gaze

Wine Cooler

Sleek, stylish, and centrally located, this Kalamata home is the perfect setting for your next group getaway to mainland Greece. You’ll get the best of both worlds here, benefitting from all the amenities you’d expect from a high-end hotel while experiencing the total privacy that comes with having your own home. 

Step inside and put your feet up on the comfy living room sofa or head straight through to the kitchen where you’ll find all the equipment you need to rustle up a delicious meal for you and your fellow guests. You'll love the views of the Messinian Bay here that serve as the perfect backdrop for your dinners and chilled-out lounging. Then, when it’s time to turn in for the night, make your way upstairs to your stylish loft bedroom and let the comfort of the king-size bed lull you to sleep. Bliss. 

If you fancy getting out and about, you’re within easy reach of the harbour and beach here, so why not step outside for some fresh air and soak in the spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea? Then, when you’ve had your fill of gorgeous sea vistas, embark on a spot of sightseeing in town before heading home for a well-deserved drink in the shared garden.

Messenian Magic

Just 300m from the sands of Kalamata sits this charming villa. Though there’s a second villa on the property, you’ll have complete privacy, your own entrance and parking. Enjoy unobstructed views of the majestic Peloponnese mountains while soaking up the sun on the terrace and sipping cocktails after a dip in the pool. This boho-style villa features contemporary designs and is equipped with all the mod cons you could need. With lush gardens and an alfresco dining area, you’ll enjoy endless moments of relaxation and make unforgettable summer memories.

Olive & Stone

This modern stone villa makes an instant impression. Situated in a holiday complex in Lefktro, overlooking the rugged landscape of West Mani, this villa is an idyllic spot for friends or family to spend quality time. You’ll need a car here to access Pantazi Beach and the mountainous village of Pigi – there’s parking for you here. The complex has been celebrated in several architectural features, which is clear from the contemporary designs and thoughtful use of space. We love the central cantilever staircase, the sunken terrace that merges with the infinity pool and the sleek interiors – it’s a unique spot to share Greek feasts and while away the days under the Ionian sun. 

The Garden of Gods

Desk / Workplace

Looking out over the picturesque village of Methoni in Messenia, Peloponnese, this striking villa looks like a dazzling sugar cube against the blue of the sky. 
 
One of three villas nestled amongst the surrounding scenic olive groves, you’ll have wide-sweeping views across the coast – best enjoyed from the main bedroom’s balcony at sunset – while the glistening private pool invites you to relax and unwind in its calming waters.
 
Inside, a sleek, contemporary decor in cool shades of white and pops of blue amplifies the ample natural light pouring through the windows. And we love the attention to detail your hosts have given to make you feel right at home – like the welcome basket of locally sourced goodies including fresh olive oil from the groves surrounding your home, handpicked and pressed for your enjoyment. 
 
While you could easily while away the whole day in your sugar cube sanctuary, venture into Methoni to visit the Bourtzi of Methoni Castle (a six-minute drive) or sink your toes in the sand at Paralia Methonis, a five-minute drive away or twenty-five minutes away on foot.


Cubic Splendour

Perched on top of a Peloponnese hillside surrounded by olive trees, this humble villa is one of four homes built from local stone that will sing to anyone after a quiet sojourn away from the crowds.

The whitewashed interior is instantly calming upon entrance and follows a minimalist approach to design. What few driftwood decorations and framed pictures there are do add a rustic charm. We should mention that the kitchen is certainly on the smaller side, but there's everything there needed to cook the group a hearty dinner. 

Although there's a table inside, there's another out on the terrace outside from which the locale's tranquillity can be truly appreciated. The invitingly blue outdoor swimming pool shared between all of the onsite villas is an equally pleasant spot to do this from, too.

When you fancy reentering civilisation, Mavrovouni Beach takes all of five minutes to reach in the car and the coastal town of Methoni is a twelve-minute drive when you're after restaurants and markets.

Nestled in the seaside village of Verga, near the Greek city of Kalámata, this charming villa awaits. Offering panoramic views of the Messenian gulf and the surrounding Taygetus mountains, this home offers a beautiful base from which to explore the southern coast.

The pebbly beaches nearby make for peaceful days out on the shore, but if you’re craving something a little more fast-paced, Kalámata Old Town's maze of cobbled streets are brimming with artisanal shops, museums, cafes and bars. For an insight into the city's rich history, the surrounding castles are also well worth a visit.

The terrace is definitely at the heart of this home, boasting a private swimming pool, comfy sun loungers and a barbecue. If you fancy a private dinner at home, grab some local seafood and fire up the grill. There are plenty of cosy spots from which to catch a sunset - pour yourself a glass of wine and take a seat on the balcony for the best views in the house.

A Piece of the Peloponnese

Resort Access

While The Peloponnese region certainly has its fair share of mountainous terrain, you’ll also love spending time on its sandy beaches and exploring dramatic coastlines. Dotted along its shores, quaint villages like Limeni make for postcard-ready scenes next to unbelievably clear blue waters. And just six minutes away by car, this villa also ebbs into the realm of something unbelievable.

Built in line with local architecture of the area, this home sits on a viewpoint that will make you gaze out in wonder and awe. Surrounded by lush vegetation and made from chunky, natural stone, it’s perched on a hillside where you can see miles upon miles of the Mediterranean Sea. Take a seat at one of three separate terrace areas, each with its own vista, and pour a glass of local wine to start your holiday.

After you’ve had your fill of panoramic views, step inside via a pretty blue, wooden front door – true to tradition. Follow the glossy wooden floors through to the cute, country kitchen where you can prepare fresh cuts of meat for the barbecue. Or wander through to the magnificent lounge, where wooden beams line the ceiling and cast a shadow on a superb mezzanine floor. Understated, traditional, and above all cosy, this villa offers Greek hospitality at its best.

Olives & Oranges

Umbrellas

It’s difficult to describe this home without seeming overly enthusiastic – it’s a one-in-a-million property. The glass exterior means that the building doesn’t overwhelm the natural surroundings – it seems as though this home has simply sprung up from the rocky hillside on which it sits. 

Inside, smooth concrete floors meet the floor-to-ceiling windows to give a light, earthy vibe. Natural wood tones add warmth, as does the mellow sunlight that streams through. Blackout curtains in the bedroom mean you’ll sleep like a baby, but when you’re ready to start the day you can step straight from bed to the sunny outside space. 

This home’s vantage point, and clever design, mean that you benefit from incredible views from almost every angle. Diving into the infinity pool gives you a glorious vista of the beautiful Peleponnese peninsula, while dining in the indoor-outdoor space showcases the lush countryside surroundings. 

Situated in the village of Pyla, you’re only five kilometres from the town of Pylos, where you can dine out or shop, and you can be in historic Messenia in under an hour. It’s hard to imagine tearing yourself away from the hammock here though… This is the kind of holiday home you never forget.

Perched on a hill overlooking Messinian bay, this sleek Greek villa boasts sweeping views of the breathtaking Peloponnesian landscape. Travel through ancient olive groves and lush pine fields to reach this halcyon home, where a private infinity pool and luminous living spaces await.

When you're not lounging poolside with the Grecian heat on your skin, hang out indoors and hit the air-con switch. Your hosts have opted for clean, contemporary decor that lets the outside in through floor-to-ceiling windows. Both of the sitting rooms and two double bedrooms look directly onto the expanse of sea, cradled by low hills on either side.

Behind the villa, you'll notice the impressive Mount Taygetos. The foot of this popular hiking route can be reached in a couple of hours – but it's not for the faint of heart, particularly in the height of summer. If you opt for an afternoon on the beach instead, no one will blame you. Your nearest include Foneas and Delfinia beaches.

Breathtaking Seaview Villa

Perched overlooking the Messinian Gulf, this dreamy villa presents a serene sight for sore eyes whichever way you look. A new build, it was only finished in 2020, yet manages to reflect the authentic character of its historic surroundings effortlessly impressively. 

One of the biggest highlights of this home is the undisturbed panoramic sea views, visible from everywhere on the terrace. You won't miss out on catching a glimpse of the sunset from inside the villa either, as the arched terrace frames the sparkling seascape like a piece of art hanging across the entire south-facing wall of the living area. 

Spend your days whiling away at one of the patio lounge areas, or better still, on the sunbeds by the pool. It's easy to unplug and reconnect with nature from here, as you'll be at liberty to take in views of both the sea and the mountains all day long. 

With added home luxuries, including an outdoor shower as well as luxurious towels and slippers – you might have to pinch yourself to believe you're not staying at a five-star spa hotel resort. 

When you can peel yourself away from this blissful retreat, head out to explore the Peloponnese peninsula. Located in Neochori Manis – you're only four kilometres away from the sandy shores and turquoise waters of Kalogria Beach. 

Pinch Me, I Must Be Dreaming

Mosquito Net

With sweeping sea views, this home has rest and relaxation at its core. Set on one level, a group of four fits comfortably here, and with both bedrooms boasting en-suites, there won’t be a queue for the bathroom in the mornings. After time spent cooling off in the private infinity pool, head to Petalidi (a ten-minute drive away) to sample some Greek cuisine in one of the many friendly tavernas. Before heading home, you’ll find the weekly market close to the beach – well worth a visit to stock up on some local delicacies.


The Golden Echo

A beautiful home overlooking the Messinian gulf, this villa provides you with the perfect way to start your day. Sip your morning coffee from your private patio as the sun rises, bathing you in warmth and fresh air. Settled in your garden, populated with beautiful flowers and greenery, you can enjoy the best of nature. With such a serene setting, you may choose to spend the day soaking up the sun from this peaceful spot, with a glass of wine in one hand and a good book in the other – just what holidays are made for. 

Inside, the home is charming and contemporary. The main bedroom with its olive green feature wall and door out onto the terrace promises a comfortable, quiet spot to rest your head at the end of a busy day exploring the Peloponnese peninsula. If you’re not tempted to one of the nearby restaurants to indulge in a spot of local cuisine, your kitchen is more than capable of testing your culinary skills. Friends and family can gather at the table sharing stories as the nominated cook for the evening rustles up a delicious home-cooked meal. With great food, great company and the benefit of such a calm setting, you’ll feel utterly relaxed and completely at home. 

Olive & Sand

And with the beach just a short walk away, you’ll find yourself in the perfect setting for a restorative retreat – one that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired from the moment of arrival. 

From quiet mornings watching the sunrise over the Taygetos mountains to lazy afternoons on a lounger, and idyllic drinks beneath the ancient olive trees, every detail of this home inspires a wonderful state of relaxation. And while the exterior sings with natural beauty, the interiors are thoughtfully designed to bring comfort and ease to your stay. You’ll find two living rooms provide an abundance of space to share quality time together, while the air-conditioned bedrooms will ensure you awaken feeling ready to explore. 

Stepping outside, it’s just a short walk to the beaches of Stoupa and Kalogria as well as the local shops, restaurants and bars. Adventure seekers will love the cycle routes and hiking trails along this majestic stretch of coastline, while those in search of a slow-paced getaway will love exploring the coves and beaches, as well as the picturesque villages of the region.  

The Peace Garden

Beach / Pool Towels

This luxurious villa is located in the Exclusive Villas Resort, a fabulous holiday complex on the Messenian Gulf, just 15 kilometres from the city of Kalamata and the airport Captain Vassilis Constantakopoulos. The villa has four bedrooms, a living room with dining area and kitchen, as well as ensuite and separate bathrooms. The views from the villa are spectacular, and there is a lovely private swimming pool and terrace. The Resort also features a tennis court, a basketball court, pathways to discover Mani natural beauty and every commodity you might need like parking spaces in all rooms and free WIFI.

The Mansion

With sweeping sea views and a sun-kissed terrace just inviting you to kick back and relax, you’ll leave this suite feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. It’s worth bearing in mind that the terrace and swimming pool are shared with the building’s other residents. These are situated just outside the living room where two guests will sleep at capacity, so if you prefer a bit more privacy this may not quite tick all your holiday boxes. Location-wise though, if the glittering blue vistas tempt you to the sea, you’ll find the beaches of Stoupa and Pantazis in Agios Nikolaos just five minutes away by car. 

Peppered Palms

Sun Umbrellas

Hidden between olive groves, and surrounded by gorgeous gardens, this majestic castle stands atop the Mikri Mantineia hill. The exterior is striking to say the least, with rustic stonework, turrets and terraces overlooking the Messinian Bay, whilst the inside boasts traditional furniture, wooden beamed ceilings and winding stone staircases. 

Start your mornings on the balcony, the perfect place to soak up the spectacular scenery with a cup of coffee. If you're looking for a way to energise yourself for the day ahead, nothing beats a swim in the cool waters of the private pool. If you do manage to tear yourself away from this incredible home, there's plenty to explore in Kalamata. 

A pretty pebble beach is a short walk away, offering crystal clear waters and an array of cafes and taverns serving fresh fish. If you're looking to soak up some of the local history and culture, there are plenty of landmarks within driving distance, from ancient temples built in the 1700s to museums offering a journey into the city's fascinating past. 

However you choose to spend your days, coming home to a castle is an experience in itself. The garden is the best place to wind down in the evenings. Pick some fresh fruits and vegetables from the trees, then cook an alfresco feast on the barbecue. Just as the sun begins to set choose a bottle of wine and watch the sky change colour over the ocean. 

The Castle Garden

Set on a small estate beside a second, near-identical villa, this home boasts a private infinity pool and stunning views toward the Messenian Gulf. The decor isn't the most soulful and the kitchen is on the smaller side, but there's space to dine by the pool, and your host offers a range of extra services including private chefs and bookings on local excursions. You'll be out of the way of Peloponnese's most popular tourist spots, but Pantazi beach, Agios Dimitrios, and Kalamata city are reachable by car.

Olive Clear Sky

The Peloponnesian Dream

Hot Tub

Set above the cliffs, this home in Neochori Village offers impressive views over the Messenian Gulf. There are multiple holiday homes here, so you’ll share the outdoor terrace and pool. Sun-soaked outdoor areas mean alfresco lounging and dining, while the interior of this home provides a welcome respite from the Mediterranean sun. The style is simple, with a well-equipped kitchen and living room – perfect for socialising after the sun goes down.

Something of the Marvellous

Streaming Services

Surrounded by flourishing greenery in a quiet corner of Kalamata, there's a refined sophistication to this villa. Much of this is down to the selection of furnishings and finishes to be found throughout, from the Venetian armchairs and the ornate chandelier to the selection of famous artistic prints dotted about the space.

However, it's not just an address that looks good on the surface – it's somewhere in which you'll find it wonderfully easy to turn off and relax. When the weather's warm, the verandah is the place to sit and gaze up at the Peloponesse skyline, but if the temperature takes a dip, you can retire next to the wood-burning fireplace or treat yourself to a long soak in the bathtub.

And of course, there will be some afternoons when the only place for it is the beach and Kalamata's main stretch of sand is only 800 metres away. You'll find a good selection of restaurants and bars along the seafront, too. Further afield, the towns of Ancient Thouria are only 30 kilometres away and well worth a visit.

Tap into the present moment of stability with yoga in your designated quiet area and embrace the stillness of the scenery, with the sound of birds chirping in the background.

Cook Moussaka for an evening of alfresco dining as the sun sets, then retire to the outdoor lounge to warm up around the fireplace while gazing up at the stars.


Nature to Sea

You'll find this modern gem situated in the hills above Methoni. With such an excellent location, you can expect the views to match, and there's no better spot to take it all in than the roof terrace. Not only can you catch a glimpse of the clear blue sea, but the village's famous 13th-century castle and the island of Sapienza are also on the horizon. It's the perfect place to toast your holiday with a glass of wine from the welcome basket and watch the glorious sunsets. Meanwhile, afternoons are best spent floating in the crystal clear pool and dining alfresco on the patio – if some fun in the sun is what you're after, you can't do much better.

Inside, it's as minimal and sleek as the exterior, with crisp white walls and big windows showing off the vistas. Both bedrooms are comfortable and stylish and boast luxe en-suite bathrooms to boot. The open-plan living area is a little compact, but with the doors open onto the garden and the breeze blowing through, indoor/outdoor living is effortless. Stroll down into Methoni when you fancy a change of pace – the castle, the beach and the town's array of eateries are twenty minutes away.

Your mornings will begin with a breakfast of freshly strained Greek yoghurt and fruit picked from your garden – choose to tuck in on the terrace or at the dining table in the elegant living space. 

Bob about in your private pool while soaking up the unobstructed views of the Messinian Gulf and when it’s time to kick back and relax, recline on a lounger in the glorious sunshine. Should you need to take a break from the heat, mix up refreshing cocktails in the kitchen as the big and little kids alike battle it out on the PlayStation Four. 

Spend afternoons exploring the coast – Kalamata Beach is only five minutes away – or head inland to the town of Sparti for its legendary history and quiet family-run tavernas. When it’s time to call it a day, return home to watch the sunset from your enviable vantage point as the city lights appear on the horizon.
