Family-friendly vacation rentals in Mani Peninsula

Fantastic accommodation, a beautiful peaceful location in walking distance of restaurants and basic essentials. George was helpful and flexible and we will definitely be going back

lovely location breathtaking view, practically in the water. house equipped with every detail fully equipped terrace

An amazing castle like home over a very large olive gorge overlooking the ocean. Absolutely stunning scenery all around us. Home had all the amenities one would hope for and then some. Very large space for our family of 9. Pool and hot tub were a hit plus tons of games including foosball and ping ball. The upper deck was perfect for sunsets. And while we did not use they had this amazing wood fire BBQ and sitting area one could use. The location was great. We were basically on side of mountain in a secluded area but close enough to small villages and beaches. Lots of tavernas within 10 mins…4 tavernas within 1/4 mile (although 2 were closed due to slow season). Getting into Kalamata city center was about 25 mins and well worth it. Ann provided several suggestions on her Airbnb page. While there is taxi service i would highly recommend having your own vehicle Ann has a local host, Joanna, helping out and was super helpful and very responsive. Don’t hesitate to rent this place!

We had been travelling for 3 weeks and we arrived in Chrani, Peloponnese by bus very tired and looking for total relaxation for a good few days. We 100% achieved this. The view was stunning, the sea was flat like velvet and in the distance the beautiful mountains. The free umbrella’s & sun loungers on the beach a great add on & the peace and quiet was just what we needed. The sea is crystal clear & once in you don’t want to come out. The lady who cleaned was fabulous, changing sheets and towels/beach towels every 3 days, sweeping, changing bin bags & mopping everyday. She was truly a star. The other guests were people that have been coming to the same apartments for many years. Meeting friends they have met before. Very friendly, relaxed, chilled & highly recommend if you want to experience peace and quiet & beautiful scenery

What a pleasant stay with wonderful host. Georgia’s home provides all you need. The spa in the courtyard was enjoyed every night of our stay! Thank you.

Stavros managed to make us feel at home, I not only recommend it, but if I get the chance, I'll go back again

Great place, awesome view and an amazing host

Great location with incredible views.

Fantastic experience at this location, the host were easy to communicate with and the rental was just as advertised, we had a wonderful time. They did little things that really stood out for us who travel the world a lot like having aluminum foil and Saran wrap, having Tupperware we could use and an ice pack in the freezer . We cook a lot when we travel and having a functioning kitchen is very important and they definitely had that. The gift of bananas and apples were quite tasty. there is even a nice chilled bottle of Chardonnay on the table waiting for us, but we don't drink. The dog and cats were very friendly and made our stay even more enjoyable. Perfect distance to the city and then away from all the noise. Don't forget to look for the sunset around evening time because it's quite beautiful. If we ever find ourselves on the west coast of Greece again you can believe that we will definitely rent from these guys again.

Great place for those who look to the opposite direction of trends. we will come back!

This traditional house has a private courtyard, situated in a small village with only a few residences. Perfect for us, but maybee not for everyone. We hade a car, so the house was perfect as a base, for island exploring, and as a retreat when we just wanted to read a book in the shade. We often made our own breakfeast and enjoyed it in the courtyard shade before going out for the day to the beaches and the the willages of this beatiful island. One windy day we just stayed at home and sun bathed in total privacy. The hosts lovely mother lives in this willage, Pitsinades, and she greeted us on arrival and got us installed properly. She was such a lovely lady, and so was every else on the island. The islanders are just so lovely, and warm and helpfull.

Great place to stay and awesome host! Located just up the road from good food and the castle.

Anastasios's home was comfortable, with exquisite views, safe parking, a short drive to Gythio town and a range of sights and restaurants, but also walking distance to 2 great tavernas in the local village. His restaurant recommendations and suggestions for things to do were excellent. We would definitely love to visit again.

Maria's house was very clean and welcoming. Everything was working very well. It is located in a beautiful area just outside the center and so you can park easily. For a couple with a car, I think it's the best!

Amazing place, incredible location and tranquility while sipping morning coffee. Happy hosting and amazing owners. We'll definitely go back!!!!!!

Beautiful house made out of rock in the heart of Taygetos' mountain. The nature around it is amazing and there are many pathways if you want to explore the mountain. Pantelis was a great host and the whole experience was amazing.

It is a beautiful house with a large garden and great pool, a real oasis, quiet location but still everything (beaches, place, restaurants, shop...) is quickly and easily accessible from there. So the perfect combo for us. We (family of 4) spent our summer vacation there and felt very comfortable. Many thanks to the hosts also for their helpfulness in all our questions.

This is the second time we've stayed here, and the fourth time in the area. It is an absolutely beautiful location. Perfect weather and everything within 10 minutes drive. The house itself has everything and is flawlessly presented. We'll be back again.

The location is extraordinary - with a magnificent view over the sea and the surrounding hills. There is nothing around except a few cows, wild goats and some derelict stone stables. The house is about 15min drive from the nearest village (Potamos) throught a steep dirt/rocky road. Absolutely fine with a small SUV or regular car even if a few tricky bends on the way up when car is heavy loaded. Going up and down twice a day for shopping/beach outing is something to think about however. The house is well equipped and we had no issues at all with the solar power. The rooms are great, on different levels, each with their own terrace and feel very private. The plunge pool is lovely. The house gets sun from all sides through the day and it can get very hot - Stefano was kind to provide extra fans for us. 2 accesses to the sea from the house via a 20/30 min steep walk, - rocks, no sand. not for small kids but several A-mazing beaches on Kithira. Remote, beautiful, calm, super night skies.

Words can't describe this place and Dia our hostess. Before we got there, Dia went above and beyond to help us with our plans, both on our travel there and during our stay. From the minute we stepped in we felt right at home. Everything you need is there and the surroundings are simply magnificent. From the view from the apartment to the private beach below. It was everything we could ask for. A true paradise we would like to keep to ourselves for future trips.. and of course Dia who made our vacation even more enjoyable and made sure we have everything we need. Thank you Dia!

We had an amazing stay. We had the ground floor apartment of a three storey property where Stathis family resides- even though this was the case, we had our own privacy to the grounds and the pool. The family were extremely lovely and we hardly saw them. The property was spotless and the grounds were extremely beautiful and peaceful with the fruit and herb trees surrounding the property. The kids had a great time in the pool. We loved our stay and we loved Kalamata!

We had a wonderful week with our 2 children in Efi's apartment. The location is beautiful, sunrise in bed, absolute tranquility, 10min walk to a beautiful beach and great pool in the complex. Efi is a great hostess and was very accommodating, the service provided by her housekeeper was great. An absolute tip for climbers, the climbing areas of Leonidio can be reached in less than 15 minutes. Thank you we would love to come back!

We had a fabulous few days at the end of our road trip, a great place to relax. The location is fantastic, just a short walk away from the tavernas and shops. The apartment contained everything you could need including the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. The pool was warm, situated in a lovely well kept garden with beautiful lighting at night. We had a lovely welcome when we arrived and it was great knowing that Eleni was close by in case we needed anything - but we didn’t! Highly recommended. Greece at its best ❤️🇬🇷

In 63 years I have traveled extensively, in many countries, and this was overall the most beautiful surprise of any place my husband and I have rented. Our hosts, Vincent and Jean-Claude, were present, warm, generous and responsive, and the house and location are beyond magical. We will return every year, for certain.
