This property is truly a little slice of heaven. It’s nestled in an area of Greece where amazing beaches abound, but it is somewhat off the beaten track for a lot of tourists. Some friends who are from the area gave us a list of recommendations, which is how we chose to visit this area of Greece. The property itself includes awesome sunrise views and a sky full of stars at night; the beach at the end of the property will be your own semi-private beach; no crowds! The beach has great swimming. There are 250-year-old olive trees growing on the gated property, as well as a swing set, basketball court, beach shower at the end of the property near the shore, and a beach bath house where there are some kayaks. There are also some lounge chairs you can pull out onto the beach. The owners are very hospitable and gracious, and truly couldn’t be nicer. Right down the shore is Skoutari Beach, where there are two restaurants right on the water. (We tried one and the food was excellent.) A bit farther away are many other beaches, such as Mavrovouni beach, which has more water sports stuff, and other places where you can catch the sunset on the other side of the peninsula. Gytheio also isn’t too far away, if you are looking for more restaurants or another place to wander. There are two nearby bakeries we found, as well as a market nearby, where you can pickup any necessities. Be prepared to map out your driving route in advance. We downloaded the “Here We Go” app and a full map of Greece to help us on our 12 day driving tour. We stayed only one night, en route to our next destination, but we easily could have enjoyed a week relaxing here. Our beds were comfortable, and the house has anything a family might need. It was really lovely and we feel lucky to have stopped here.

As we stopped several times on the way from Athens to Ktima Petalea, we arrived around midnight. Melina and Ilias were waiting for us to make sure that we arrived safely and received the keys without any problem. When we woke up, we saw that we were few steps away form the beach and the beutiful clean sea, no noise, no roads, no crowds. It was so peaceful. A simple breakfast with good cappuccino freddo was waiting for us in the cafeteria, where you can also find snacks for lunch. Ilias' daughters Maria and Stavroula help with the service with their beautiful smiles and made us feel home. It is very close to Gytheio, where you can find good restaurants and cafes. It is also very convenient to visit Mani or go East to see Monemvasia and Elafonisos Island. Ktima Patelea is the kind of place that you know you will visit again...

A great place for a family in a quiet location close to a very nice beach. The villa had everything we needed, we loved the pool, the flowers in the garden, the playground and the beach close by. Very friendly and welcoming owners and staff. Very tasty and diverse breakfast.
