"With its olive grove, villa, tree-shaded pool, and various cottages sleeping between two and six, Mani HNG in the foothills of Mount Taygetus might be the most beautiful in Southern Greece. Everything has been designed to harmonize with the landscape of sea and mountain in the Mani Peninsula. There's lavender, bees, and the soporific scent of rosemary; breakfasts of honey and peaches; history tours with owner James Heneage; and the sparkle of the distant water."
"The Mani Peninsula in Greece is a perfect, deserted location offering a glorious experience, especially during the fall."
"Located at the southernmost tip of mainland Greece (and of the European continent east of Spain), I found the Mani Peninsula to feel like the end of the road, where the rustic charm of Greece is most apparent: a timeless region of rustic villages and untrampled beaches, with empty, ghostly hill towns clinging, barnacle-like, onto distant ridges still fortified against centuries-old threats. A day's drive around this desolate, rural peninsula delivers dramatic mountain scenery and bloody history wrapped in a hardscrabble, evocative package, making hedonism on the Mani coast feel all the more hedonistic." - RICKSTEVES
"▲ Remote, rustic region with dramatic hill towns, spectacular caves (Pyrgos Dirou), and breathtaking jagged coastlines." - Rick Steves' Europe
