Great family location

Large, spacious villa perfect for families with separate flat. Nikki was a wonderful host, bringing us delicious home baked treats from cakes to feta samosas! A short drive (5 minutes) from the beach and restaurants and good vase for exploring the historic sites.

A perfect family vacation

I have no reservations in recommending this property and the hosts. We had a great stay and the home was everything I was expecting. The host were gracious and friendly—they brought us home cooked Greek treats, which was an unexpected (and delicious!) surprise. It made fot the perfect base for our family vacation.

Incredible Experience!

Nikki and her husband were incredible hosts. The property was clean, well stocked, and had everything you could want. Nikki, the host, was very attentive and even made some baked goods for us while we were there (and they were incredible)! The walk to the beach and restaurants was not terrible, but is uphill. Overall we had a great stay and they were terrific hosts.

Nikki's Tower Review

We had an excellent time at Nilki's Tower. The house was clean and well-appointed. Niki was a very friendly host who lives on the property and was readily accessible. We particularly enjoyed the pool and outside spaces, including the porch and the rooftop patio, both overlooking the sea. We would definitely stay here again.

Can’t wait to come back!!!

There’s not enough words to express how amazing our stay was at Villa Nikki!! The home is exactly as described and more! From the moment we arrived, Nikki welcomed us with homemade jams from her garden and cake! Everything was spotless and organized. The rooms were well equipped with crisp sheets and the beds were very comfortable. We loved waking up every morning and enjoying our coffee on the veranda that had breathtaking views of the sea. Our boys especially loved their morning swim in the pool and afternoon walk to the beach. Mrs. Nikki had plenty of toys and games to keep them busy. Anything you can think of or need she has! We are beyond thankful for her hospitality and generosity, we can’t wait to come back next year!!!

Beautiful property and great host

We stayed at this home for 2 weeks, 4 adults and 4 children. The property has so much outdoor space, with beautiful gardens that we all enjoyed. The views are spectacular! The city of Kalamata is an easy 10-15 min scenic drive. The owner brought us fresh baked goods every day - how generous and lovely she is! We loved how this home is not in a very touristy area as we like to really “live” like the locals in the country we are visiting. The home was equipped with everything you could possibly need, very homey feeling, we cooked majority of our stay as we don’t eat out every day. Some other Vrbo properties we have stayed at in the past give you enough supplies for a day or two but Niki had supplies for our entire stay! Now that’s how it’s done well! Thank you SO SO much Niki for your hospitality! Much love from our 2 families!

Ein sehr eindrucksvoller Platz! Das Haus, die Lage, die Aussicht. Top!!! Die Gastgeber sehr hilfsbereit und überaus freundlich, epharisto!!! Nur eine von uns für angebliche Renovierungsarbeiten erhobene Gebühr war nicht nachvollziehbar. Das war bitter. Kam aber von der Agentur....
