Stone-built cottage in Gythio, Mani | ‘Liopetra’

A stunning cottage (380sq.m.) in a 4,000sq.m. plot of land full of olive trees, traditionally built in hand cut local stone (castle-like) with breathtaking view of Gythio - the Laconia Gulf, where even Kythira island is visible. Its spacious rooms can accommodate up to 12 people making it the ideal choice for families or large groups who wish to discover southern Peloponnese -especially Inner Mani, and at the same time looking for a relaxing and luxurious vacation.
'Liopetra' is the name of the cottage as abbreviation of the Greek words ilios (sun), elia (olive) and petra (stone) describing its fundamental features.
The cottage extends over 3 levels, featuring 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms; on the ground floor there is a living room with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, a cosy bedroom with a semi-double bed, a bathroom with jacuzzi shower head; on the 1st floor there is a large and spacious living room with fireplace and 3 couches (the L-shaped couch converts easily to a double bed), a dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, a bedroom with a double bed and a bathroom with bathtub; on the 2nd floor there are two bedrooms, one master with a private bathroom and a private balcony, and another one with either 2 singles or 1 double-bed plus a bathroom with jacuzzi bathtub and on the hall between them a fully functional kitchenette (electric hob, small fridge, washing machine, no oven) .
All bathrooms are equipped with glass shower screens and toilet facilities (such as hair dryers) and 2 laundries are located in the ground floor and in the 2nd floor.
The residence additionally has a portable crib, feeding chair, and baby toilet for infants, wi-fi connection, 2 smart TVs with NETFLIX connection & PS3, A/C, boiler and large private parking space while all floors are fully air conditioned.
Outdoors, there are independent porches on each floor equipped with outdoor furniture surrounded by olive trees, more specifically a dining table on the 1st floor and a rooftop balcony offering moments of relaxation and mesmerizing 360-degree view of the Gulf and its surrounding hills. The land has been tastefully planted with an abundance of local flowers, pick-your-own herbs and olive trees!

Beautiful, well appointed and relaxing home.
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.

Magnifique maison du Magne
Accueillis par Thanos et Margerita avec beaucoup de gentillesse et d'attentions, nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette maison superbe, très grande et très fonctionnelle. L'environnement est lui aussi très beau, les plages charmantes et la petite cité balnéaire de Gythio très attrayante. Efthymis leur fils est lui aussi charmant et très réactif en cas de problème. Bref nous garderons un souvenir merveilleux de ce petit coin de paradis !

A Beautiful and Peaceful Mountain Sanctuary
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.

Amazing!!!!
This place is absolutely amazing. The amount of detail and beautiful architecture put into this home is astonishing. The views and property is breathtaking. We literally felt like we were living the life of a movie star. The hosts could not be more helpful and accommodating. Definitely one of my best short term rentals I’ve been to.

Traum-Villa mit tollem Ausblick! / Dream Villa with a great view!
Beginnend mit einer perfekten Kommunikation mit dem Eigentümer, über die flexible Anreisezeit und die exponierte Lage des Hauses mit traumhaftem Panorama-Blick , bis hin zur wirklich exzellenten Ausstattung , lässt dieses Feriendomozil keine Wünsche offen! Sehr freundlicher Umgang mit den Gästen! Absolut empfehlenswert! Starting with perfect communication with the owner, through the flexible arrival time and the exposed location of the house with a fantastic panoramic view, to the really excellent equipment, this holiday home leaves nothing to be desired! Very friendly interaction with the guests! Highly Recommended!

Wunderbare Villa in perfekter Lage
Das Haus ist einfach perfekt… hochwertig ausgestattet, voller liebevoller Details, makellos sauber und mehr als großzügig geschnitten. Die Lage ist toll, fußläufig findet sich ein Strand, weitere traumhafte Buchten in kurzer Entfernung und auch viele Ausflugsziele sind gut erreichbar. In wenigen Minuten ist man in Githio mit netten Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Die Vermieter sind sehr herzlich und zuvorkommend, es hat uns einfach rundherum super gefallen! Ein perfekter Ort für Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene gleichermaßen!

Wonderful! Top quality!!
Both Mr. Thanos and Efthimis were very friendly, welcoming and accommodating! We spent 8 days at the house with family and children - everything was very carefully thought out to the last detail on all levels - giving us a much needed cosy and ‘homey’ feeling. The kitchen was fully equipped and very well stocked upon arrival. The house was crystal clean and the view from the verandas (and most windows for that matter) simply stunning!! Thank you for a great stay! We would definitely recommend this property!

Room with a view!
First, this is a lovely and spacious home. All 4 bedrooms have their own bath, kitchen and patio. The owner provided gifts of pastry on our first day and bottles of olive oil from their own trees. He was very responsive to any questions and clearly wanted us to enjoy our stay. The outdoor patios overlook the bay and we ate dinner there often. Stay here … you won’t regret it! So very lovely.
