    The most beautiful view and super host

    This isn’t the newest, sparkliest rental house - it’s a home, and feels like it…everything you need, well equipped kitchen, lots of comfy furniture and places to relax. It’s not far from great beaches, Methoni town is quiet, and lovely, but near the main road so good for accessing supermarkets and other places to visit. Simon was there when you needed him, but discreetly available (he lives on site) and really friendly. The pool is great, and we had it to ourselves a lot. Amazing wildlife! And fab fruit trees (I lived on passion fruit). You won’t want to leave the view though, quiet and contemplative dawns, beautiful sunsets, and starry skies at night. We could have stayed forever. Thanks Simon (and cats).x

    Great place for a family getaway in South-West Peloponnese

    We stayed at Simon’s villa with our two children, 5 and 7. We had a fab time. The house is equiped with all basic amenities, lovely pool, and in a great location, close to wonderful family beaches and central for visiting the area. Would highly recommend without a doubt!

    Relax amongst the olive trees

    We had a wonderful holiday exploring the uncrowded sandy beaches nearby, pottering around the small town of Methoni and visiting amazing venetian and ottoman forts. The sea is the cleanest that I think I have ever swum in. A highlight was taking the boat from Methoni across to the island of Sapienza; Vassilis the boatman stopped over the shipwreck of 2000 year old stone sarcophogi, which could clearly be seen in 8 metres of water. We stayed in Gaia Cottage: the cottage was simply furnished and had everything we needed (no microwave or dishwasher but we didn't mind that). What really matters to us are things like mattresses, and they were very comfortable. The setting in the olive grove is lovely. There are views across the countryside and to the sea from the cottage patio, from its small and exposed roof terrace (too hot for us during the day), from the pool area and a truly remarkable view, from the front of the Sea Breeze property, of Methoni bay and town. Simon is friendly and approachable and took very good care of us, with advice about where to go and what to do. We really enjoyed his olive oil, eggs, passion fruit and aubergines. The shared pool worked really well for us and was a good way to meet other people staying there. We shall definitely go back to this area of of the Peleponnese and to Seabreeze.

    Great accommodation in a beautiful setting!

    We had a great experience staying at Seabreeze. Very comfortable accommodation set in a tranquil olive grove. Our family of 4 enjoyed the facilities, the pool and the lovely views. Our hosts were most helpful with useful tips to secret beaches and recommended tavernas, thank you. We would recommend this property and surrounding area for anyone who would like to stay in a quiet part of Greece away from the tourist crowds. With plenty to explore in the local area and also a great setting to relax on the lazy days.

    Großartig!

    Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in dem Haus. Auf einer Anhöhe gelegen mit Rundumblick auf das Meer und Methoni haben wir uns auf der Dachterasse gefühlt, als wenn wir über den Olivenhainen schweben würden. Das Haus ist großzügig und geht über zwei Etagen, so dass jeder sich auch einmal zurückziehen konnte. Die Farbgebung der Innenräume ist sehr gut abgestimmt, was erheblich zur Wohfühlatmosphäre beiträgt. Der Garten mit Pool ist ein Ort der Entspannung, Simon ein aufmerksamer Gastgeber und stets zur Stelle, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Es ist sicher eines der schönsten Häuser, in denen wir Urlaub gemacht haben.

    Great view, spacious vila

    We, couple ( 65 years) stayed in Vila Shani for 2 weeks with our sons, their wifes, and a baby (11 months). We had a wonderful time together, swimming in the pool, cooking, eating, playing together. The Vila is located on the top of the hill and we had a great view to the landscape with thousands of olive trees, over Methoni, where we watched the sun set and to the Coast and the sea. In the area we had lots of beautiful beaches we could choose every day. The distance to the beaches is about 2 km. We enjoyed our stay!

    Ein Haus mit herrlichem Ambiente in einer wundervollen Gegend.

    Ein liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus mit vielen Möglichkeiten zum Draußen sitzen. Die Kinder und auch wir Großen haben den Pool genossen und die herrliche Rundumsicht. Von der Dachterrasse konnten wir uns jeden Tag an Sonnenauf- und untergängen erfreuen. Simon ist ein offener und herzlicher Gastgeber - gerne kommen wir wieder. Vielen Dank!

    Absolute Entspannung in fantastischer Umgebung

    Meine Freundin und ich haben im September eine Woche in Simons wundervollem Häuschen verbracht und es war einfach nur großartig. Das Grundstück ist riesig, voller Olivenbäume, 5 Minuten vom nächsten (herrlichen) Strand entfernt und bietet jede Menge Platz und Aussicht, um sich zu entspannen. Das Haus ist wirklich gemütlich und sehr sauber. Die Region ist fantastisch. Kleine schöne Dörfer am Meer, herrliche Sandstrände und jede Menge Ausflugsorte. Alles in Allem also eine sehr empfehlenswerte Unterkunft in einer traumhaften Region. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

    Unacceptable situation

    I'm sorry to say that the premise is totally unacceptable by any standard. The Villa Shani is in a splendid location, but this is the only positive thing. Literally everything is going in ruins and lacks maintenance since many years. All the windows are in bad condition and don't close, or close thank to a rope. Moreover, the bath situation is very bad. In a corner inside a room you have a shower with a door that would be adequate for a camping. In a toilet you have a sink so small that would be adequate for an airplane. Moreover, also hygiene is a problem: bed pillows under the sheet are really filthy and owner's dog dejections are left to dry in that should be a garden, but is substantially a rubbish tip. For letting everybody understand the situation, I post some photos, but believe me, I took some pictures.
