Filanthi's Retreat In Mani's Nature Stone House in Silence & Olive Trees | Cottage in Gytheio
3 Bedroom Cottage in Karvelas, Gytheio
This is not a holiday rental.
It’s a stone house made for people who need silence, nature and time.
Surrounded by olive trees, mountains and open sky,
Filanthi’s Retreat is a place to slow down and live simply.
Ideal for couples, nature lovers, writers and anyone who values calm over crowds.
This is a home for unhurried stays – not for one-night stopovers.
Nestled in the quiet countryside of Mani, Filanthi’s Retreat is a place where traditional Greek hospitality meets everyday simplicity.
The stone house has been carefully restored to remain true to its roots, offering warmth, comfort and a sense of home rather than luxury. Three peaceful bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and cozy indoor spaces invite you to live at a slower rhythm.
Outside, the garden offers seasonal fruits, olive trees and open views of the surrounding hills. Mornings are for coffee in silence, evenings for simple meals, wine and stars.
Located just 13 km from Gythio, the house allows easy access to the Mani peninsula, while remaining far from crowds and noise. Villages such as Areopolis, Oitylo and Limeni, as well as Monemvasia, Mystras and the Diros Caves, are perfect for slow, unhurried excursions.
Filanthi’s Retreat is ideal for guests who appreciate authenticity, nature and quiet living — and who understand that the real luxury here is time and peace.
