The Amoni are two houses built in traditional Mani-style stone and wood, approximately 150 metres south of the village centre, a unique position that offers breathtaking views of the dramatic sunsets of the Messinian Gulf and total relaxation, within walking distance of the village. Owned by a local family who built The Amoni on land originally used by their great grandfather to offer hospitality to farmers from all over the Mani peninsula, they used this place as a resting place for their livestock on their way to the farmers market in Kalamata. Before the road to Kalamata existed, farmers from the Mani would normally spend days walking their livestock through the peninsula to Kalamata. Nowadays, it is owned by Alexandros the grandson, who carries on the tradition of hospitality along with the rest of the family.

Alekos is an olive farmer who produces his own olive oil every year. We also have eating olive trees which we collect every November and produce our own eating olives. This is something we enjoy sharing with our guests at the Amoni.

The Limanaki is just a short walk downhill from The Amoni, perfect for swimming and snorkelling and exploring the small coves around the shoreline. Those who wish to explore a little further afield can drive through the Taygetos mountain range and forest, or to the Diros Caverns, the city of Kalamata, or to the Byzantine capital of Mistra. You can also take a short stroll to the restored old town of Kardamili to visit our small museum; there are also many hiking paths through the surrounding mountains in the area
