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!

It’s absurdly expensive.

It’s a quite extraordinary position which it exploits brilliantly. The staff are superb and the breakfasts incredible.

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 !

A beautifully restored Mani tower. Only 4 rooms so intimate. Kostas the owner was a very knowledgeable and welcoming host. The food was excellent…. 5 course breakfast and an extensive evening menu, cooked to order…. Perfection! The views are totally amazing. Kostas is a perfectionist and this place is perfection.

I cannot think of anything negative about the hotel / personnel / food / rooms. Everything was beyond expectations!

Every single experience we had at Tainaron Blue was unique. From the 1st minute you enter the facilities you get to feel the true meaning of hospitality by Mr Kostas (the owner) who is taking care of you and has paid attention to every single detail of your stay. The room was very cozy, minimalistic and nicely decorated with super comfortable beds and linen. Our best time of the day was when we had to eat. Both breakfast and dinner (both days), were served with such care from the all staff and Mr Kostas himself explaining every dish and giving you the full experience. All dishes were just mesmerizing, we just wanted to taste everything (a great reason to visit again!) I can keep on talking but I am sure you get the idea. Tainaron Blue is one of best experiences I had so far and is located in one of the most beautiful places in Greece, Mani! Worth every single euro you pay!

The location is unique, with an amazing view and a great charm. The tower has been beautifully restored. The food was exceptional, the best we had in Greece.

The pool could have been heated seeing it was a hydrotherapy pool.

Attention to detail was outstanding. The view was spectacular and position of accommodation was unique. The bedding was the most comfortable that I have experienced in Greece. Service was First class. Would recommend this to a couple that would like tranquility for a relaxing getaway.

The place is a combination of some the most amazing scenery we ever saw and some the best food we ever had. In fact, every detail is of the best quality: the room’s design, the bed and mattress, the landscape and the hospitality. Talking to Kostas, it’s clear that he cares deeply about every aspect. And again, the food was unbelievable. We kept talking about it long after we left. We had breakfast AND dinner, and highly recommend both.

nothing. the tower room does have steep ladder type stairs so just bear this in mind if booking this particular room.

everything! the view, the staff, the food, the remoteness, the attention to detail is everywhere, the stunning infinity pool and the total peace and quiet. the balcony was also very special.

We were welcomed by Kostas (Architect Hotelier) who showed us the place, our room, and offered us the welcome drink. After a few minutes I immediately understood that I would like to stay at Tainaron Blue Retreat forever! Everything is position in his correct place, and studied perfectly, to make you feel comfortable and totally relax. Incredible location, breathtaking view. You can recognize the architect's touch, both in the exterior (seats, swimming pool, disposition of the external area) and in the bedroom, full of design objects and very functional. The dinner was also perfect, very good, we were able to taste the authentic and genuine Greek cuisine. The breakfast was delicious and planty, with special and refined food. Kostas and all the staff are really kind and at your disposal. You can feel that Kostas loves his work and puts his heart into what he does! I hope to return to Tainaron Blue Retreat soon to relive this unique experience.
