Diros Caves holiday rentals

The location of this house is great if you want get away from the holiday crowds in Greece. Yet it is only 5 minutes drive to a very pleasant low key sandy beach with two seaside restaurants and a lovely byzantine church on the waterfront. There is a small mini market and restaurant in Skoutari a few ks away but best to get supplies in one of the bigger towns like Gythieo or Sparta. This is the second time we have stayed in this house and we will return again because it is in one of the most beautiful parts of Greece and suits us we don't like big tourist locations. The view from the terrace is spectacular and we had breakfast and dinner there each day watching the light change over the bay. The house is like a home, it has most things that you need and is safe and functional. The air-conditioning is a little inadequate on a hot day but the breezes on the terrace cool things down in the evening. This is the real Greece and driving the Mani Peninsular is wonderful. It is the kind of place one could hang out in for a few weeks and we will definitely be back.

I do not know where to start with my praise ... everything was perfect. The house is well-situated with beautiful beaches nearby while being absolutely tranquil with a superb view over the sea and the wonderful landscape. We loved the open loft-like interior with spaceous kitchen area, we loved all the lovingly planned details such as the walk-in shower, we loved the tasteful outfit, we loved the large terrace with sun and shade, perfect for every time of the day, we loved the excellent olive oil provided by our hosts and their caring but inobtrusive introduction to the facilities. This week in September was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable experiences I've ever had. Ah, and we played Rummicub with the vintage set provided, thumbed through the art books and spent many hours in hammocks under the oak trees, listening to the song of birds and cicadas. Communication with the hosts was always easy, quick and straightforward, the house was spotlessly clean, the beds comfortable.
