"Nikos Panagiotareas House", as it is called in Google maps, is a traditional house on the beach in Mikri Mantineia.The closest house to the sea. Far from, but also close to the big city of Kalamata (10 km). It is situated in a extraordinary spot of a very picturesque village of the Kalamata's seaside. Living there is like you are travelling in a ship. Built on a rock it is between the mountain and the sea giving a relaxing sensation of being in the nature. The beach where the house is on is safe and clean for swimming. You can even fish from the balcony. It has many amenities for a creative life there.

The house is huge and our teenagers had their own world on the rooftop. Very “Instagramable”
location. My wife and I and our 8 year old boy enjoyed the rest of the house.
We never went to a beach - there is simply no need, because 3 meters from you door is the sea with outdoor shower, too. The little area in front of the house is not so deep and after 2 meters only sand, no rocks and there is fish to visit snorkeling. The water is between 60 cm and 2,5 meters deep and crystal clear. It was one of our best family holidays!! Only thing is the street which is loud in the night. Take something with you that you can put in you ears. Doing so, I slept very well.
La maison, pleine de charme, offre un accès direct à la mer: idéal pour se baigner à toute heure dans une eau calme et turquoise.
Terrasse ombragée, chaises longues et barbecue, tout est réuni pour un excellent séjour.
Les propriétaires sont accueillants et réactifs.

Nice house with direct access to the sea
charming house with stairs directly into the sea, located on a beautiful bay with crystal clear water. However, due to the direct street location, it can sometimes be a bit noisy and the small beach directly below the house is not private. This should perhaps be made clear in the advertisement.
We had a great time in Kalamata. The house was very clean and the views of the sea were spectacular. We were a little concerned about parking the car, but parking was always available at the same spot and there was plenty of space.
We parked very close to the home, about 75 feet. It was on a somewhat busy street, so we were careful to walk to the house from where we parked.
Overall, the house was beautiful and we already are planning to return. Also, the owners were very helpful and quickly responded to any questions. Thank you!
Auf 3 Etagen sehr gemütlich, tolle Terrassen, aus der Tür zum "Beach" direkt in einer sandig geschützten Bucht im Mittelmeer baden, sehr schöne Lage, Kleinversorger und Einige Restaurants alles in Fußwegweite.
The house is in a fantastic position Just down a flight of stairs from the kitchen to very clear and warm water we enjoyed our stay very much and would recommend this house for a very relaxing stay. Just one point if your hiring a car, parking can be a bit of a hit or miss at the property.
I had a very hard time leaving this property. I wanted to cancel the rest of our trip and stay. The house was a perfect place to spend our 30th anniversary. Theodore was so nice. The beach next to the house is so clean and nice. It wasn’t very busy, so we got to enjoy the water everyday without being crowded. The grocery store is nearby, along with plenty of restaurants. My husband who doesn’t really like to travel, said “ you finally brought me to the most beautiful place Ever!” That is a huge compliment from him. We started our days with coffee on the balcony. Then I would enjoy beach time for a couple hours. When the sun got too hot my husband would move to the patio in the shade and people watch, while I read my book on the sun balcony and took a nap. We ate lunch at the house and went out for dinner. It was the most relaxing vacation we have had in years. You can tell the house was built with love. Thank you for sharing the house your father built. We loved our time there. We will be back.
We really enjoyed this house! Just to step into the sea from the kitchen/living room. And the roof terrace was amazing. And for all lovers of history, it’s no more than one hours drive to Sparta, Mystras, Messene or Nestors Palace in Pylos. We would love to return some day!
Très belle et grande maison avec tout le confort, charme d’une vielle maison et accès à la mer direct. Deux bémols cependant : la proximité de la route avec une circulation intense qui rend la maison assez bruyante et la mauvaise surprise,à notre départ, du prix des nuitées supérieur à celui qui avait été affiché sur notre site de location (nous avons dû payer l’équivalent d’une nuit supplémentaire en cash).
Everything was great. Really nice house with a personal touch. View of the sea from almost all rooms. Clear blue water with sand on the bottom. Great for kids. And a really amazing rooftop terrace. for watching the sea or the stars at night. We would all love to go back!
We are having a run of luck at the moment, we cannot seem to do anything wrong and in choosing this property turned out to be the luckiest thing of all, we had a absolute lovely restful time in a absolute lovely property with a absolute lovely host,all the best Theodore see you again next year
Wir haben uns im Ferienobjekt alle sehr wohl gefühlt.
Sehr schönes romantisches Ferienobjekt mit Zugang zum Meer. Sehr nette Vermieter. Es war alles da, was gebraucht wird. Viel Platz für 6 Personen. Jederzeit wieder.
We had two weeks and absolutely loved staying at this property .... we felt like we were experiencing a bit of real Greece. The location is a delight, beautiful views, lovely swimming/snorkelling. Close enough to explore some of the wonders of the Ancient Greece (car required). Within walking distance of tavernas and a local shop. And at the end of the holiday we had lunch with Theodore and his family amongst his olive groves .... a perfect end to the holiday (thankyou). Missing it already and we will be visiting again. Thank you for making the time special. Rachel and the girls 😀
Die Lage ist einmalig für erholsame Tage direkt am Meer. Man tritt quasi aus dem Haus und kann (muss) schwimmen. Durch die direkte Meerlage ist das Klima auf der Terrasse deutlich angenehme als ansonsten in dieser Gegend.
We had a wonderful relaxing break. This homely, characterful property was charming. All the focus seemed to be around the amazing view on all levels straight out onto the sea. There are plenty of comfy corners inside and out to relax in the shade and sun. The deck on the top floor was great for stargazing. Jenny and Theodore were a pleasure too.
A traditionel house situated just at the seaborder, which gave fresh breeze and quick access to swim. Good with separated facilities.
Clean and everything worked.
A quirky, happy, welcoming house on the beach. We loved it. There is a separate, private little eyrie at the top with fabulous views across the bay and out to sea. The terrace overlooks calm, clear water and is shaded by two lovely trees. The house is full of charming places to sit an most of the rooms face the sea. There are steps down to a pebble beach where the water is perfect for swimming. It is tranquil and very relaxing and we hope to return.

Amazing house
2 meters from the sea.
Old house with all what is needed and a lot of charm.
When we had a problem with the heating the owner brought alternative heating at the same evening.

Haus am Meer mit ganz viel Charme und Charakter
Das Haus ist fabelhaft gelegen. Über eine Treppe gelangt man direkt zum Meer. Das Haus ist geräumig und sehr gemütlich eingerichtet. Man findet dort alles, was man für einen entspannten Urlaub braucht.

Wunderbare Bucht, altes Haus
Das Haus liegt in einer wunderschönen Bucht direkt am Meer. Der Zugang über eine Treppe ist fantastisch, die Terrasse auch sehr schön. Die Badezimmer sind leider alt und heruntergekommen und man kann nicht vernünftig duschen. Daher der Punktabzug.

About the host
Hosted by Jenny Panagiotarea
I live in Athens where my husband works and my son studies so I cannot live in Mikri Mantinia where I prefer to be.
Why they chose this property
This house was my father's house. Once I was a little girl, every summer I would come to this house. The feeling of freedom that I felt and the magic that the sea made me witness, are feelings that I've felt only in this place. Everytime someone comes to this house and I host them, I love how the place and the house make them feel the same feelings as those I feel about this amazing place.
What makes this property unique
This house is unique because of spectacular views of the sea (the whole Messinia bay can be seen by the terrace) ,as you will be able to see also the mountain.The sea offers a wide variety of activities such as swimming, fishing,surfing or just resting under the bright sun. However these are not the only activities possible.There are incredible excursions that one can do at this place, such as the so called Polilimnio (a group of some beautiful lakes), the mountain, the castle or some of the other nearby beaches.
