"Manis Nature's Jewel: Experience Adventure and Serenity at Filanthis Retreat!

Welcome to Filanthi’s Retreat in Mani’s Nature – Your Perfect Escape to Tranquility and Charm

Nestled in the heart of Mani’s breathtaking landscape, Filanthi’s Retreat offers a serene haven where nature’s beauty and traditional Greek hospitality come together. Whether you’re seeking relaxation, adventure, or a bit of both, our home promises an unforgettable experience.

The Space:
Our lovingly restored stone house exudes rustic charm while providing all the modern comforts. With three beautifully designed bedrooms featuring touches of local artistry, including wildflower-inspired décor, you’ll feel at home the moment you arrive. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped for preparing meals with fresh, local ingredients, and the cozy living spaces invite you to unwind after a day of exploring.

Step outside to discover our lush garden, brimming with seasonal fruits like lemons, dragon fruits, and prickly pears, perfect for a refreshing snack or a picturesque photo. The outdoor seating areas offer stunning views of the surrounding olive groves, where you can enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of local wine under the starlit sky.

Location:
Situated just 13 km from the charming harbor town of Gythio, Filanthi’s Retreat is perfectly positioned for you to explore the treasures of the Mani Peninsula and beyond. Visit the iconic Monemvasia, a medieval castle-town perched on a rock island, or step back in time at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Mystras, where Byzantine ruins tell tales of a glorious past.

Discover the enchanting villages of Areopolis and Oitylo, each steeped in history and traditional charm, or take a short trip to Limeni, known for its crystal-clear waters and picturesque seafront. Explore the mesmerizing Caves of Diros, one of Greece’s most impressive natural wonders, and let the serenity of Gerolimenas transport you to another era.

For beach lovers, a visit to the pristine shores of Elafonisos is a must, with its white sands and turquoise waters creating a little piece of paradise. From cultural landmarks to natural beauty, Filanthi’s Retreat is your gateway to the wonders of the Mani Peninsula.

Experience the Mani Lifestyle:
At Filanthi’s Retreat, every detail is crafted to help you immerse yourself in the magic of Mani. Whether it’s savoring breakfast with fruits from our garden, witnessing the golden hues of the sunset over the hills, or simply listening to the gentle whispers of nature, this is a place where memories are made.

Wonderful Hostess Beautiful Location
What a wonderful stay we had. It is out there in the countryside up in the mountains away from everything. Very easy to find though. Beautiful views. Filanthi provided so many treats for us. We had a small problem with the washer, but it was probably just our lack of knowledge of European washers. Would highly recommend!!

Great house in a quiet area of Mani
We spend two weeks in Filanthi´s house. The house of Filanthi is located in a little village, almost on the top of the mountain which includes a 20min drive to the next town of Gythio. A wonderful retreat if you love nature and quiet places. Filanthi, her sister (which lives next to the house) and the whole neighbarhood are very nice and kind persons. Filanthis was always available and gave us and really warm welcome and some really nice advices of the places to visit. The house is lovely with lots of nice areas and we spend a fantasitc time there. As we travel with 5 persons we always book holiday houses for our stay but Filanthis house was the cleanest. My wife is a little bit fussy on this but had absolutely nothing to complain. The house is very well equipped and there is nothing you won´t find in this house with one exception. There is an air condition at the lower floor with works fine but in the sleeping rooms there is no air condition but just ceiling fans. They work pretty well but if you expect air condition in all rooms you will be disappointed. All sleeping rooms have a nice size and are equipped with TV. There is also a nice sitting area outside which you could use. It´s a yard but with a grill, table, chairs and a lot of nice details. In total we collected a lot of nice memories in Filanthis house and we would alsolutely recommend it. Thanks for everything!
