Perched on a hillside with breathtaking views of the Bay of Navarino and the Ionian Sea, this villa offers a comfortable base for those looking to explore the beauty of the west coast of Messinia. A private pool and lawn complete the idyllic scene outside, and a balcony accessed from two of the bedrooms offers the ideal spot to watch the sunset over the water’s edge. The decor inside isn’t half as inspiring as its setting, but we reckon you’ll be spending most of your time soaking up the views here anyway. The nearby village of Gialova offers a selection of waterside tavernas, and when you’re ready to explore further afield, Pylos is 8 kilometres away.
