Staying at Tainaron Blue Retreat was an absolute dream! It combines breathtaking mountain and sea views with a serene, rustic charm that’s impossible to forget. The room was luxurious with unique decor and attention to every detail. The food was equally spectacular, with local, fresh ingredients that highlighted Mani’s culinary heritage. Dining under olive trees was unforgettable. This place is a hidden gem that beautifully combines history, nature, and luxury.

It was perfect

HEAVENLY. This place is a gem, an extremely special and unique stay in a fabulously restored old Tower, with so much attention to detail; note the stone mortar is the best! It is located in an unbelievably beautiful spot on the Mani peninsula. Food, incredibly delicious and beautiful. Costa the owner, and the architect is completely brilliant and all the staff are courteous. Thank you.

Nothing.

We booked this hotel wanting absolute serenity and relaxation and it delivered 100%. The size of the property is perfect for those looking to escape - only 4 rooms - and the aspect and views are breathtaking. Photos do not do it justice. The rooms are well sized given that the hotel is an old Mani Tower. Because of the size it feels like most of the shared space around the pool area is private. Special mention to go to owner Kostas who has bought this place to life - he is engaging, knowledgeable about the local area and passionate about the region and his guests hospitality. We did quite a bit of exploring during our stay but it would be perfectly possible to spend your entire stay within the walls of the property and have your every need catered for. The food we had on our first night was delicious, and so to was the breakfast every morning. We have been hesitant to mention the address to too many people only because we selfishly want it to remain a hidden gem! We can’t wait to come back and stay again and enjoy Deep Mani knowing that we have paradise to go back to at the end of a day exploring.

Amazing Host, Very kind staff and the desire to make your stay as memorable as possible. During the day, swallows sometimes dance around the breeze and dip into the pool, like out of a Disney movie

Room was a little tight, but it’s the one we selected.

There are man things to like, including: the drive to the hotel, the architecture, the amazing view, the cleanliness, the delicious food, and the amicable staff. The proximity to Marmari beach and the Tainaron Cape was great. Most importantly, Kostas and his staff are amazing hosts.

The tower room is a little hard to get in and out of, due to stairs and low entranceway. The room is also on 2 levels, which makes it hard to appreciate the total size. We would try a different room next time.

Great, scenic location, super friendly and knowledgeable host/owner and super helpful staff. The food was awesome, we had a spectacular dinner and the setting is magical. Breakfast was an incredible, unique experience.

Cannot think of anything

The wonderful location, the old beautifully restored old Mani tower, the intimacy of the place with only four rooms, the exquisite dinners and the elaborate breakfasts, the wonderful and very attentive host and the four other staff members.

Mani is "Greece within Greece", and Tainaron Blue is like "a small Mani inside Mani". If you want to really live, see, feel and taste Mani then Tainaron Blue is that one place to be. Outstanding, impeccable, stunning. Many thanks to Kostas who is doing an impressive work here. What a Retreat!

An amazing, dreamy place that stands like an oasis of peace and serenity amidst the rugged and harsh terrain of Mani. Even more impressive than the structure itself and the breathtaking view was the treatment we received by the staff who did everything to make us feel like royalty.

Big crush for Kostas’s place - as beautiful as on the pictures - even more once you are in front of the unique sea view - we stayed 3 nights and I think one more would have been the perfect time to plenty enjoy Tainaron blue’s spot. We slept in the tour - A very unique experience which is part of the place’s charm - you have the feeling to sleep in a lighthouse - but with all the expected comfort you are looking for during holidays - if you are very very tall, it might be a bit narrow - with my husband we are both tall (1m85 and 1m75) and it was fine - anyway there are three other rooms where to stay ! Kostas and his team are doing everything to make you feel good and they think about all small, but important, details that make your stay special. And the food... no words how all the starters, mains and desserts were delicious - everything is home made and all receipes are refined. ( I am gluten free and they kindly found alternatives for me ) What we loved about this place is how peaceful it is - it was our first time in Greece and we started with the discover of Vathia’s area - best decision. It is still very preserved, several beautiful not busy coves - you feel very lucky to be part of the few to discover the landscapes and enjoy the sea. Tainaron blue’s hotel is the kind of spot you would like to keep for you !
