About this villa rental

My family and I (9 of us total) stayed here while visiting for 3 weeks. The hosts were amazing, very friendly and would check in to see how our stay was. The check in/check out process was seamless. The house spotless and comfortable and the AC was perfect (you know how important that is with the heat in Greece!) would definitely stay there again!

All I can say is the place was "perfect" and our hosts are wonderful people. We were greeted with warm Greek hospitality. They had the house ready for us in all respects. Including chilled wine, beverages and pastries. The property is even more beautiful than the pictures on the VRBO site. It is central to everything Mani. The interior decor was gorgeous. The patios have beautiful views of the sea and Gytheio. Our two week stay was not enough, I did not want to leave, they had to drag me away, lol (just kidding of course). My family will be certainly returning. I highly recommend this vacation home to anyone who wants to experience a true Mani vacation. Thank you Skeparnis Family. Theo M

We had a lovely time staying at Thanos and Margareta's home. They welcomed us graciously, had the house ready and stocked with wine, juice, water and condiments. Additionally, they provided us with many recommendations of things to do. We had rain and wind while we were staying at their home, so we didn't get to do as much as we would have liked, but there's much to do in the area, convenient markets as well as places to eat. It's a fun area to explore and when you get back to the wonderful home, it's a relaxing and comfortable space to be. I would highly recommend staying here.

What an incredible place to stay during our Greek vacation! Mr. Thanos and his son Efthymis were the ultimate hosts - attention was paid to every detail from a beautiful interior decor to a very well-equipped kitchen that they so thoughtfully stocked with water, coffee, milk, juices, etc., before our arrival. Even a welcome box of exquisite fresh pastries! Efthymis was quick to answer any question or need we had via text. We stayed for almost three weeks, and found the house to be a true sanctuary away…we definitely needed our car to see the many lovely sights in the area but found wonderful food in nearby Gytheio. There was a nice and affordable private beach nearby as well with excellent seafood. The Skaparnis family represents the Greek ideal of filotimo- the idea of being gracious and generous to all because it is the right thing to do. We would return in a heartbeat and hope we will have the opportunity! And the house (and views) was as lovely as the photos show. Maybe lovelier. Our highest recommendation.
