Venetiko

Offering everything needed to enjoy a fun-packed and relaxing holiday, the Messinian Riviera is an irresistible cocktail of spectacular scenery, fascinating archaeological sites, tantalising cuisine based on the freshest regional produce and long sandy beaches bathed in benign Greek sunshine. It is also home to some of the friendliest local people in all of Greece!

Sitting just above the pretty, traditional village of Petalidi (2.5km), Venetiko is one of only four identical properties privileged to occupy this hugely desirable hillside location and makes an ideal base for exploring one of Europe’s most celebrated and historic regions (Messinia is mentioned in one of European literature’s oldest works, ‘The Iliad’).
 
Looking out over verdant countryside to panoramic sea views with a backdrop of soaring mountain peaks, the sense of calm and tranquillity which permeates this lovely home will surely prove an inspiration to all who visit.

Designed across one level, modern and very appealing, Venetiko delivers good space, soothing décor and tasteful, comfortable furnishings. Allowing those sublime views to be enjoyed from all points of the property at any time of day (or night), patio doors in each room lead directly out to the sun terrace and infinity-edged private pool.

External open and shaded seating areas also allow full advantage of those remarkable vistas to be taken. Perhaps a morning beverage under the pergola as the sun rises? An after-dinner aperitif at the opposite end of the day? Holiday memories are guaranteed.

Largely untouched by tourism Petalidi (a ten minute drive) is home to good amenities that include several welcoming tavernas, cafés and coffee shops radiating off the pretty town square. A weekly market (usually Friday) takes over the harbourside near the sand/pebble beach or the gorgeous sweeping sandy beach of Paralia Velika is about a 20 minute drive along the coast.
