Half way between Kalamata and Stoupa in the Messinia region of the Peloponnese, Greece, you will find our modern, one bedroom, self-catering holiday apartment. Set amongst the olive groves near a small hillside village, with the sea to the west (so you should get some spectacular sunsets) and the Taigetos mountains to the east, you have superb all round views. There are excellent tavernas only 5 minutes drive down the hill in the charming fishing village of Kitries, and the gently sloping Santava beach is just 5kms away. The popular, sandy beaches of Stoupa and Kalogria are 20km away, after passing through the picturesque town of Kardamili with its traditional Mani tower houses in the old town.

This is rural Greece at its best, where the villagers wave to you as they pass by on their way to work in the olive groves or to tend their sheep and goats. The nightlife here is listening to the cicadas and watching the lights of the fishing boats in the bay.

This beautiful area of Greece begs to be explored, with the historic sites of Mystra, Ancient Messini and Olympia all easily reached for a day trip, and walking the Taigetos gorges is not to be missed.

Olive Grove apartment has everything you need for a great holiday, and its rural setting between the cosmopolitan city of Kalamata and the sandy beaches of Stoupa, together with the stunning views, make it a very special place for you to relax and unwind.
