The Tower Mani...Tainaron Blue

Surrounded by a beautiful landscape and breathtaking views, Tainaron Blue Retreat welcomes its guests offering excellent cuisine combined with impeccable service and 
warm hospitality.
Unwind and rejuvenate in the midst of nature with a glass of wine, enjoying the unobstructed view in one of the most exciting locations in Greece.Tainaron Blue Retreat 
is housed in an early 19th-century stone tower that boasts stunning panoramic views of 
the southernmost slope of Taygetos mountain and the sea. Perfectly situated in an idyllic location, it is an ideal place to watch the magical sunset over the sea or witness the 
serene beauty of a new day dawning.This traditional tower is a perfect example of the defensive architecture of the area. With their simple and austere beauty, the imposing towers of Mani resist the passage of time and offer a fascinating journey into the past. 
In times of conflict, they served to control and repel hostile attacks, while in times of 
peace and prosperity they were used as residential places and courtyards.During the conversion of this three-story tower into a guest house we encountered considerable difficulties. We had to adapt to the specific characteristics of the architecture of Mani 
and at the same time ensure that the interior spaces keep pace with modern aesthetics.

The structure inside and outside of the tower had to remain unchanged, while all 
modern facilities and infrastructure had to be settled imperceptibly.As the formation 
of the exterior spaces had to ensure minimum interference, the addition of a water 
surface area was adapted to the specific environment and respected the topography 
of the landscape, resulting in an even and unified set of buildings and space with 
intensity and character.
 
The Tainaron Blue Retreat offers you the quaint and unique experience of staying 
in a tower that comes from the past, with its traditional narrow stairs and wooden ladders. 
Its three vintage rooms, with unobstructed sea and mountain views, are equipped with beautiful Coco-mat linen and ecological O-live toiletries and are embellished with works 
of art created by sculptor Nikos Karalis.
