FAQ

Manifest sits above a quiet cove at Karavostasi, beside the village of Oitylo, in East Mani in the southern Peloponnese (Greece, postal code 23062). It rests at the foot of Mount Taygetos, with the Mediterranean and the bay of Limeni spread out below every suite.

The nearest airport is Kalamata International (KLX), about 73 km away, roughly a 1 hour 40 minute drive along the Kalamata to Areopoli road. Athens International Airport is about 325 km away.

Most guests arrive by car, which is also the most natural way to explore Mani. From Kalamata, follow the national road toward Areopoli, then continue past Oitylo to Karavostasi. Car hire and private transfers can be arranged in advance on request.

The fishing harbour of Limeni is about 4 minutes away by car, and the stone town of Areopoli about 15 minutes. The beach at Oitylo lies roughly 1.4 km below, and the Caves of Diros around 19 km to the south.
