Our stay at Casa Sophia was everything we had hoped it would be. The accommodations and location were perfect. We felt at home immediately and found that everything needed was provided including a well equipped kitchen for cooking. Sophia and Mogen’s were wonderful hosts. Communication was excellent throughout our stay. Feel like we have made new friends.We could have spent our entire summer here. And who knows, we may in the future. Thank you Sophia & Mogen.

Beautiful traditional stone house with a wonderful sea view from the spacious terrace. Sophia and Mogens were wonderful hosts and welcomed us with a very generous welcome pack of food in the fridge and other essentials like bread, wine and beer - a lifesaver seeing as we arrived very late. Being longstanding residents themselves they were able to give us endless insider tips on what to see and where to eat. The kitchen was very well equipped so it was no problem to take full advantage of all the excellent food, fruit and vegetables available locally and enjoy leisurely home cooked meals on the terrace. They also provided us with very effective battery powered fans which were very good for keeping the mosquitos at bay outdoors and keeping us cool at night as we aren't too keen on sleeping with air-conditioning all night. The built in in air-con though was very effective. Sophia very kindly did our washing for us, provided beach towels and changed the linen in the middle of our stay. The village of Pyrgos is really charming and a very good base to explore this wonderful region. There is everything you need here for a really great holiday.

The property owner cannot be faulted with her kindness and consideration. We felt that the cleanliness could be improved, and we felt that there was an excess of clutter contained in the residence.

Relaxing days guaranteed at Casa Sophia

We spent ten days in mid-May 2023 in the well-equipped house of Sophia and Mogens who received us very friendly and provided us with good tips, interesting information and small attentions. We don’t miss anything. The house is very individually furnished with a lot of love. Highly recommended.

My wife and I totally enjoyed our stay at Casa Sophia. It's a setting where time slows remarkably and you feel a guilt-free pleasure in having an equally slow pace to your days.I first discovered Casa Sophia back in 2017 while searching the internet for places to stay in Europe. We elected to go to Italy that time but I kept an eye on Casa Sophia. As the years went by I continued to check the VRBO site for the listing, hoping to take advantage of it sometime. There was one year I couldn't find the listing and panic set in. Had the property been sold? Had the owners retired? The next year I found the listing again and I relaxed.We made our decision to go to Greece in November of 2024 and shortly after I made our booking for Casa Sophia for September of 2025. Our hosts, Sophia and Mogens, were very good about keeping in contact with us prior to our visit, answering questions that only hosts could answer. Some people might be concerned that the hosts at Casa Sophia live downstairs from the rental property itself. Not to worry; church mice would be louder than the hosts. Seriously. And when you do want to interact with them, they are right there to answer your questions and assist you in any way that they can.If there are times when you want to add a little action to your day, the coastal towns of Stoupa and Agios Nikolaos are less than a ten minute drive away.

Paradise with a view

Our first impression of Casa Sophia was the description and photo on the website. Following our booking we received a wonderful description of Sophia and Mogens home and, the surrounding area. We drove from the North West of The Peleonnese using the descriptive guide from Sophia and Mogens and arrived, with no hickups, late in the afternoon. The surprise awaited us!!!!! We parked our car out of the village and walked slowly through the narrow, cobbled roads and lanes to the beautiful wrought iron front gates of Casa Sophia. Sophia greeted us with a welcoming smile and showed us through her gorgeous home. Once we stepped onto the terrace and, then inside, the peace came over us. The house offered us all we wished for, including some extra goodies! We made ourselves at home and sorted out our luggage as we had been travelling for 3 weeks. Sophia kindly washed our travel soiled clothing and offered us suggestions of the different possibilities of exploring the mountains or the coastline. We spent our days arising late, enjoying a delicious breakfast on the terrace listening to the birds and gazing at the azure Mediteranean Sea. Off in the car exploring the mountain villages was an adventure and great fun discovering the spots to stop for a Greek salad and coffee - one under a 100 year old Sycamore tree. The Bysantine Chapels and churches are very special in this area and well worth stopping to take a look inside. As it was very hot we always made it to the sea for a late cooling swim, headed back to Pygos, refreshed ourselves and then drove 10 mins to one of the seaside villages for a delicious Greek meal. Thank you very much Sophia and Mogens for our wonderful stay in your home and congratulation on making it such a special place. We will recommend Casa Sophia on the Mani in the Peleponnese to our friends, family and travel agent. Go well both of you. Warmest regards, Kerrie and Rob

Hi Kerrie and Rob What an honor and pleasure it was meeting the two of you as well. And what a journey you had the many weeks before arriving here. Real travelers. We wish you all the best. Good luck with your B&B in Melbourne and your most admirable project bringing indigenous plants back on your property i northern Australia. Warmest regards, Sophia and Mogens

Unser Aufenthalt bei Sophia in Pyrgos war einfach traumhaft. Das Haus ist ein echtes Schmuckstück – gemütlich, liebevoll eingerichtet und perfekt für die ganze Familie. Die Terrasse mit ihrem fantastischen Weitblick war ein echtes Highlight. Wir wollten dort immer nur „kurz“ sitzen … sagen wir mal so: Unsere Ausflugsplanung musste sich gelegentlich gedulden.Für meine Frau, die leidenschaftlich gern kocht, war das Haus ein Traum. Meine Aufgabe war klar: probieren, loben und zur Sicherheit noch einmal probieren. Ein anstrengender, aber wichtiger Einsatz!Liebe Sophia, vielen Dank für deine herzliche Gastfreundschaft und die wunderschöne Zeit. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und kommen sehr gerne wieder!Our stay at Sophia’s home in Pyrgos was simply wonderful. The house is a real gem: cosy, lovingly furnished and perfect for the whole family. The terrace, with its fantastic views, was a real highlight. We kept saying we’d sit there “just for a moment”… let’s just say our plans for the day sometimes had to wait.For my wife, who loves cooking, the house was a dream. My role was clear: taste, compliment, and taste again—just to be thorough. A demanding but very important job!Dear Sophia, thank you for your warm hospitality and for such a lovely stay. We felt completely at home and would be delighted to come back!much greedingsmario irini eleonora

Gemütliche Ferienwohnung mit einer phantastischen Terasse mit Meerblick

Sophia ist eine nette und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr komfortabel und gemütlich. Eine Grundausstattung mit Speisen und Getränken ist bei Ankunft vorhanden. Das Beste ist die Terasse mit vielen Blumen und Pflanzen. Von dort hat man einen phantastischen Blick auf den Messinischen Golf. Das Dorf Pyrgos ist etwas verschlafen aber mit dem Auto ist man in wenigen Minuten in Stoupa oder Agios Nikolaos.

Haus mit Charme

Wir haben den Aufenthalt und die Ruhe in diesem geschmackvoll eingerichteten Haus sehr genossen. Die Küche ist prima ausgestattet und die geräumige Terasse lädt zum Verweilen ein. Das Dorf ist malerisch gelegen und hat seinen eigenen Charme. Sophia versorgt ihre Gäste mit Geheimtipps zur Erkundung der Gegend - sowohl das Meer als auch das Gebirge sind gut zu erreichen. Die Kommunikation mit Sophia verlief einfach perfekt. Als wir kurz vor Mitternacht endlich eintrafen, wartete noch ein Snack auf uns. Vielen Dank für alles, liebe Sophia!

Auf Entdeckungsreise

Wir wurden superfreundlich empfangen und Sophia hatte für uns sogar schon etwas eingekauft. Die Lage ist super ruhig und schön gelegen mit Blick auf das Meer. Man kann schön auf der Terrasse entspannen. Das wirklich historische Haus wurde sehr gut restauriert und liebevoll eingerichtet und dekoriert. Die Vermieter sind einfach total nett und jederzeit für Anliegen zur Stelle. Sehr herzlich. Also nur zu empfehlen. Wir haben hier eine sehr schöne Zeit verbracht.
