Due to the recent health and safety regulations, breakfast was conveniently served in our suite. We had to place the order at the Reception on the night before and had everything delivered in special packing the following morning.
Facilities and Services
The resort features a beautiful laid-back pool and a small private beach shaded by olive trees.
We especially loved the quaint relaxation area with sun-loungers spread out in the gardens amidst the olive groves – the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing afternoon getting lost in the pages of a great book.
Wining and Dining
The resort’s main Lupino restaurant features an indoor and an outdoor area, where guests can enjoy a fabulous dining experience under the starry Maniot sky. The peaceful area surrounding the resort, means that there aren’t too many lights interfering with the overall setting – gifting you with the purest pleasure of enjoying the remarkable silence.
A truly wonderful experience for all the senses. The Mediterranean menu showcases the region’s bounty — presenting the finest local ingredients and flavors. The Chef and his team have prepared a fine selection of dishes that highlight the unique traditions of the Mani peninsula.
After a busy day exploring the dramatic coastline of Mani we enjoyed the inviting ambience while sipping cocktails under the moonlight. A priceless experience, indeed.
