Experiences that await you

The Ilia House is located on the western slope of the mountain range of Taygetos, in the municipality of Avia, in western Mani; in particular, in the picturesque village of Altomira, situated opposite gorge Ridomo. The village is a perfect example of Mani’s house architecture. One of these houses is the complex "Ilia", an excellent sample of local traditional architecture, dating from the late 19th century, which since 2005 has been identified as preservable by the Ministry of Culture. Today it has been restored and is a traditional two-storey stone house that can accommodate up to 9 guests, whichever season you choose to enjoy the activities in the area. The traditional architecture is harmoniously tied with the modern amenities to provide the best possible hospitality. The warmth of the premises is everywhere, both in the colours and objects that decorate and function in the house. The area is ideal for nature lovers and hikers since it’s the center for your excursions to the central Taygetos that is still remains largely unspoiled. Pigadia, Rizana, Kria Vrysi, Ridomo, Zekia, Kossyfalona with the dominating crated of the slaked volcano and many other beautiful locations transform the stay to a unique experience. The Altomira and Ilia House is your ideal starting point to explore the Messinian nature, all year long!
