About this villa rental
Aleiki is an imposing traditional stone townhouse with a secluded walled garden with mature orange trees, jasmine and bougainvillea. There's a breakfast terrace right outside the kitchen door shaded by a grape vine pergola. It's the perfect location for a relaxed holiday and is within easy walking distance ( 8 - 10 minutes ) of the beach and castle. There's a fabulous bakery, wonderful tavernas and all local amenities on your doorstep as Aleiki is just up a little lane off the main street in the centre of the village. With everything on your doorstep, many of our guests do not feel the need to rent a car.
The light, bright front bedroom ( open beamed ceiling ) faces the sea and has a double bed and a single bed. The back bedroom overlooks the garden and little lane ( leading down to the main street ) and has a super king bed ( 2 x 2 metres ). There's also room for a cot ( which we can provide. ) There is one bathroom upstairs. Both bedrooms have air-con, varnished wooden floors and shutters.
Downstairs there's a kitchen and steps leading down to the lounge. The third bedroom opens off the lounge and has a small double bed. A washroom opens off the lounge ( toilet with sink ) . There's a double sofa bed and space to add a fold-down bed if needed.
The second full bathroom ( original to the property and therefore not modern - with new shower and toilet ) is in the garden above the kitchen terrace. It's particularly great for showering children after the beach and for hanging wet towels straight on the washing lines. There's also a washing machine, towels and toiletries.
Aleiki is a lovingly restored house in a beautiful village of special interest. We have tried to retain the original character and atmosphere of the property ( there are strict rules for the renovation of old stone properties in Methoni ). If it's New York style chic and en-suite bathrooms you're after, this may not be the property for you .

We stayed 5 nights in Methoni and 2 at Fiona's other property up in the olive groves of Gialova. Both were fantastic and a great mix and match for our wonderful holiday in the Peloponnese.
Our Methoni stay felt as traditional as it gets! A beautifully rustic and welcoming home with loads of space and character. Lizards in the gorgeous back garden, church bells at regular(ish) intervals and comfy beds in cool rooms.
Best of all, Fiona was bang on time for check in, charming, warm, funny and full of great suggestions for things to do locally.
Despite my best intentions, life on holiday with three children means I still haven't finished Gerald Durrell's 'My Family and Other Animals' but a small part of me felt like I'd lived a bit of that same simple, curious, life staying at this wonderful house in a charming seaside setting.
Thank you Fiona, we hope to meet again.

Nothing to add to that title. Oh just maybe Fiona the landlord (landlady?) whose presence is reassuring, efficient, and friendly (meaning you want her to be your friend). Perfect stay.

The house is just amazing - this was our second time and we hope to be back. Very clean and well equipped traditional house. A lavish garden to relax. Child friendly with lots of toys. Three toilets which is a real bonus with kids. Just perfect. The hosts Nigel and his wife Fiona are very helpful and kind. On arrival a bowl of cherry and melons were waiting for us - thank you.

We had a great holiday. House is brilliant for families - lots of space and a garden for kids to play. Family who owns the house is very helpful and nice. House was clean and the kitchen had a wide range of utensils. Lots to see and do in the area. I would return tomorrow : ).
