Eumelia is a working organic farm near Gouves in Laconia, with olive groves, vines, a vegetable garden and a few rare Greek black pigs.
Stay in one of four houses among the olive trees, with a kitchen, fireplace and veranda of your own. Cooking classes and oil tastings bring the farm into the day.
A house on the farm
The houses are called Grape Vine, Lavender, Almond Tree and Sunflower. Each has a bedroom, a living room with a fireplace, a dining area and a kitchen, and opens onto its own veranda and garden. They are built bioclimatically, designed to stay cool in summer, with underfloor heating from a geothermal heat pump for the colder months. The farm welcomes guests all year.

From the grove to the table
The farm’s organic olive oil is tasted among the old trees it comes from. In the cooking classes, ingredients are picked in the garden, phyllo is made by hand and the dishes follow vegetarian Laconian recipes. A sommelier introduces Greek natural wines and the grape varieties grown here, among them Kydonitsa and Agiorgitiko. There are also soap-making workshops with olive oil and local herbs, and massages in your own house with the farm’s oil infused with wild herbs. The stay itself is the house and its kitchen; classes, tastings and treatments are booked separately through the farm’s calendar.

Plan around the season
The olive harvest in Laconia runs from autumn into winter, and Eumelia builds a separate programme around it: in 2026 its Olive Harvest Retreat starts on 30 October and again on 6 November. An ordinary stay can be booked independently of it. Around Easter the farm runs a cooking week of Lenten dishes and Easter baking, which includes the Good Friday procession in Gythio, and there are yoga retreats through the year.

Researched from the hotel’s official information, editorially checked on 30 September 2026. We do not claim to have stayed here. Prices and availability directly from the hotel.
A restaurant with rooms in a neoclassical 1923 building on Gytheio's waterfront, looking out to sea and the islet of Kranai. Mornings bring brunch, say an omelette with syglino, Mani's smoked pork; evenings turn to Greek cooking built on local produce.
A family taverna on the village square of Mavrovouni, just above Gytheio, with long tables under the trees. The cooking is Greek country food, much of it from the grill, and the village eats here too.
