“We were moved to the hosts hotel due to noisy work going on next door to the alta vista at no extra charges. So unable to give a review for the Alta Vista. But the hotel was lovely. And it had a pool. We were very happy.”
“Marianta House in Areopoli is more than just a stay—it’s an immersion into history, beauty, and inspiration.
This 18th-century stone home sits in the very heart of Areopoli, once called Tzimova under Ottoman rule. The architecture tells its story: thick stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and a terrace opening to sweeping sea views. Every corner feels authentic, yet the restoration has been done with impeccable taste and respect for tradition.
From the sunlit patio with its rustic stone walls to the elegant bathroom carved out of whitewashed rock, the house feels like a timeless retreat. Writers, artists, and architects will find endless textures and details to spark creativity; historians will recognize the weight of a revolutionary past; botanists and nature lovers will be drawn to the wild herbs of Mani, especially in spring.
Despite its historic soul, the home is perfectly equipped for modern life. Appliances are brand-new and flawless, WiFi is strong—ideal for teleworkers and digital nomads. Comfort is everywhere: thick towels and robes, quality mattresses, a fridge generously stocked like in a five-star hotel, and the joy of a proper Nespresso machine with plenty of capsules.
The hostess, Katerina, is a botanist and artisan, offering handmade soaps and candles infused with local plants, adding a deeply personal and ecological touch. And just steps away, you’ll find the best bakery in town for warm bread and morning indulgence.
Marianta House is not simply accommodation—it’s a sanctuary. A rare blend of history, nature, and comfort, it welcomes explorers of the mind and spirit: writers, artists, botanists, architects, historians, perfumers, photographers, musicians, designers, gastronomes, digital nomads, couples and anyone seeking beauty off the beaten path.”
