About this property

This 250 m2 villa is built in traditional Mani (stone) style and lovingly restored from its original 1770 castle with wood fire oven still intact! The house is in a tranquil surrounding, surrounded by untouched nature with just the sound of the birds and the goat bells in the distance. The whole vibe of Villa Onor is 'far way from everything and everyone!' It is for someone who really want to relax and let go, read, sleep. cook and explore the nearby attractions. In the winter enjoy the cozy taverns, the fireplace and some red wine and in the summer go diving in the caves and soak up the soon by our pool or on a beach nearby!
The architecture is very traditional stone style yet the villa has also made sure it is still minimal and modern where it has to be. In the winter enjoy the cozy taverns, the fireplace and some red wine and in the summer go diving in the caves and soak up the sun by our pool or on a beach nearby! Flomochori village is 5 minutes away, Kotrona is 10 minutes away and Areopoli town is 15 minutes away and is a must see with beautiful cafes, taverns and small bars for those that want to be more adventurous.

Cooking is definitely a must in the villa in this top of the line Gagganeau kitchen so make sure you stock up on food and wine and get the board games (some are provided in the villa) out. The bedrooms all have en-suite bathrooms (the master bath tub/rain shower). The outdoor dining is perfect in the summer or huddled by the fire inside in the winter!

The villa consists of 4 bedrooms. The first two bedrooms are opposite each other, one with two single beds and one with a double and both come with en suite bathrooms and couches that could also easily be made in a bed for a young child.

The third bedroom is in the main house by kitchen and living room and is a double with en-suite bathroom and the master bedroom on the top floor of the villa has a walk in closet and a huge bathroom with bathtub and shower.

All rooms are spaciously spread out around the villa property so as not to bother one another. An extra pull out comfy single bed is also available for a 9th person upon request.

All bathrooms are design Veloudis from Italy and are corian.

The living room is a cozy hangout with a fireplace where Thomas, our caretaker, can provide you wood should you need it, with a flat screen tv and a dvd system. We also have books, board games and some dvd’s for your pleasure.

The kitchen is an island design with corian surfaces and state of the art appliances by Gaggenau where you can all hang out with the cook and the dining outside for breakfast is facing the sea.

A Delight in The Deep Mani

If there is anywhere as nice as this converted tower house to stay in The Mani then I would be surprised. In fact I think this house rates as one of the best of it's kind in Greece. Secluded, breath-taking vista, immaculately maintained (very comfortable, perfect pool, stunning kitchen, very nice bedrooms), terrific on-site couple who clean/maintain, excellent connectivity - this house is a delight to stay in. But the real marvel of this place is it's location. The Mani is an eye-opener to those who like to get away from the regular trail of tourist destination Greece. The beaches, swimming, tavernas all very good and what you would expect but the majesty of the mountains, the hill top fortified villages, the welcoming people and the absence of other hordes of tourists made this a stunning and memorable holiday. In fact having been to Greece every year for nearly twenty years this stands out as a major highlight. I can't wait to go back and explore more and I would really like to stay in this house again. Thank you Chiana for lending us your family home - what you have created is something unique and very special. I could not recommend this house more highly.

Serenity

Peaceful bliss (except for the wasps who made it difficult to use the pool during the day). The house is superbly equipped and Thomas and Linka maintain it to the highest standards. The views from the terrace are hypnotically magnificent .

Magical Mani!

This house is the perfect balance of luxury and solitude. I rented it for my extended family for a week in early May. The weather was a bit iffy, but this did not take away from the beauty and comfort of the location. We enjoyed the surrounding landscape with hiking and sitting on the nearby beaches, and savored our every moment in this luxurious home. Hope to make it back again soon!

MAGNIFIQUE!!!

Je n'ai pas assez de mots pour exprimer la beauté de l'emplacement et de la villa en elle-même... La vue est à couper le souffle. La villa est isolée, parfait pour la tranquillité... Comme il faisait très chaud, nous passions de la piscine à un saut dans la mer dans les petits criques à proximité... La villa est rénovée avec tellement de soucis du détail... La qualité des matériaux et de la finition est de très grand luxe... Chaque détail a été réfléchi pour s'harmoniser avec l'environnement. Nous avons pu faire quelques visites autour... Mais surtout de profiter de la villa et de son emplacement extraordinaire! La cuisine est super bien équipée, ce qui fait que c'est très facile d'y faire à manger! Chaque chambre à sa salle de bain ce qui est parfait pour l'intimité de chacun. Le couple qui s'occupe de la villa est très charmant et attachant et s'assure qu'on soit bien. Les propriétaires s'assurent aussi qu'on ait tout ce dont on a besoin et s'assurent qu'on soit heureux... Je recommande sans aucune hésitation aux amoureux de la nature, de la tranquillité, de la beauté des paysages et à ceux qui aiment vivre dans une villa de haut standing.

About the host

Your host

I spend my time between Mani - Athens - Mykonos and when it all gets a little too crazy I hide out here, @ Villa Onor and I catch up on sleep, read my favourite books and go in to the town to see my local buddies. This place is truly unique and I am almost certain that you will relax and unwind - oh and smile - as much as I do when I am here! I am an avid traveller, love my country Greece and love my bulldog Lola!
If you need local tips, let me know, I would be glad to help!

Why they chose this property

It's a hideaway/getaway retreat in a mountain in the middle of tranquility! All you can hear is the sound of the birds and the bells of the goats nearby. The property is really private and there are no other properties near it. The views in front of the sea and the vast mountains behind add contrast. The kitchen is phenomenal for cooking and hanging out with friends and the fireplace in the winter with wine and board games is also perfect. The summer and winter have incredible hikes you can choose from, water sports, caves, cycling, and of course tavernas serving fresh fish and Greek village meats cooked in traditional pots!

What makes this property unique

Therapeutic, energising, tranquil. A place to unwind, restore and let go. Privacy for acres around and our staff, Thomas and his wife are on site for your every need. Breakfast/dinner upon request for an extra fee and hampering before arriving at villa can also be arranged. Owner also available for any tips and arrangements! Daily cleaning included.
