Inaccurate listing, building works, slow internet
The location is good, as others have said and we love the Mani. But there is only one bathroom, not two and we expected two. A previous review states this so they should have responded. The internet was so slow we could not watch any films or work so had to use own data. Fixable issues. Final straw was planned roadworks sll along road, causing noise and dust everwhere all holiday. The water pressure reduced to a dribble for 2 days. Pipe work which is not unexpected but has to be agreed- owners should NOT have rented house at this time. When i contacted owners, they did not address any of this but called it ‘force majeur’ which it is not as it was planned works. Frustrating and time taken up dealing with them and VRBO, who have escalated our complaint. Very very disappointing and assuming we will be recompensed.

Fantastic holiday
Totally exactly as described. Wonderful quiet position, amazing villa, selection of balcony’s to take in the sun, sea views, cleanliness was exceptional, lovely pebble beach just down the road and warm waters to enjoy. Had a car but you could have walked into Agios Nickolas for a lovely harbour, restaurants and friendly local people.

Beautiful home, amazing view!
The house was very comfortable and exactly as described. The view from the deck on the upper floor is amazing. Everything that you need is there. There is a large grocery store in Stoupa on the main road. We really enjoyed Agios Nikolaos. We also ate in a taverna by the harbor in Stoupa that was really nice. Everyone is very friendly. We loved our stay here. The Mani peninsula is unbelievably gorgeous! The only issue we had is that the front door was a little tricky to get open. You unlock the door and then turn a little more and push to get the door open. You cannot remove the key from the lock in the door and then push the door open. You have to still be turning the lock while pushing on the door. . I don’t know if that explains it well or not. We figured it out after a little time using it.

Wonderful villa in best location
We loved our stay in beautiful Villa Lida! It was absolutely spotless, in fact the cleanest house we have ever stayed in. The villa is very comfortable and charming and has amazing views from all rooms and verandas. The location is very quiet and peaceful and yet within walking-distance to the beaches and the supermarket and many tavernas in Ag. Nikolaos. Pefect location for exploring the stunning Mani-peninsula too! We hade a wonderful time and we would love to return to Villa Lida very soon again!

Lovely week in Mani
The house is comfortable and well appointed, with two bedrooms and adjoining terraces. The bathrooms, as others have noted, are not very well designed, but we did not find this to be a problem - it may be if you are more than two. The kitchen is well equipped. The internet is a bit slow, but we did not come to Mani to watch the screen! We found it to be perfectly adequate for our needs. The house is located between Ag. Nikolaus and the small town of Ag. Dimitrios. The former has plenty of nice restaurants and is a 20 minute walk from the house, if you don't want to use your car. Note that the driveway, to park your car beside the house, is not well constructed on the left side, so you will want to enter and leave staying as far right as possible. The house can get quite hot and does not much benefit from the breeze nearer the sea or higher on the mountain. But the air conditioning works very well, so you can cool it down as you wish. Overall, it's a fine place to stay in an exceptionally beautiful and interesting region of Greece.

Luxus ist anders
Toll: die Lage und der Blick in alle Richtungen, sehr bequeme Betten! Schwach: 1 Bad (nicht 2!) und das auch sehr klein. Ausstattung der Küche extrem schlecht, keine Gartenliegen, Kommunikation mit den Ansprechpartnern sehr schwierig und unpersönlich.

House for great vacations in the Mani
The house in Agios Dimitrios/Agios Nikolaos was very spacios and well equipped. We found 4-5 possibilities to have breakfast or dinner right outside the house or indoor. Way to the beach is about 300 meters. Next supermarket in Ag. Nikolaos about 1 km . Good local restaurants in Ag. Nikolaos directly at the small local harbour. Good basis for enjoying beach life or walks in gorges up to sleepy mountain villages or visite historical sites on Peloponnes which founded our european culture.

Superbe séjour
Nous avons apprécié notre sejour de 4 nuits; -les lits sont hyper confortables -Les volets ne laissent pas entrer les rayons du soleil le matin ( un gros plus pour une famille avec enfants) -accessoires de cuisine et vaisselle permettant de cuisiner -eau chaude dans la douche -plusieurs terrasses agréables ou il fait bon manger et relaxer -de petites attentions ( fleurs, biscottes et confitures a notre arrivée ) -plage a environ 20 minutes a pied Quelques points à améliorer : -communication; la personne responsable de la maison ne parle presque pas anglais et nous avons petdu beaucoup de temps à trouver la maison puisqu’un courriel a été envoyé le jour même pour nous transmettre les donnes exactes de la localisation mais nous navons pas regardé ce courriel avant d’arriver au mauvais endroit en nous fiant aux infos de l’annonce. -aucune indication de l’endroit où deposer les dechets -aucune mention que l’eau nest pas potable ; nous avons posé la question en voyant les bouteilles d’eau dans le frigo… -l’entretien entre les réservations doit etre revu; il y avait de la nourriture sur le plancher à notre arrivée et des savons utilisés par les locataires précédents dans la douche.
