Notos Hotel offers 14 apartments and studios suitable for both young couples and families. The apartments combine
contemporary interior decor, placid atmospheres and modern facilities, including fully-equipped kitchens, air-conditioning
and telephones. To preserve the quiet, ambient feel of Notos, a television is provided in the reception area. Wheel-chair
access is provided for the elderly and disabled. Each of the apartments has its own balcony or veranda, and peaceful sitting
areas are situated around the hotel amongst vines, impressive rock formations, and wild vegetation.
Kardamili has many beaches and coves for swimming. Time can be also being spent exploring the Mani on foot or by car.
Excursions by car will take you either north towards Kalamata and ancient Olympia, Mycenae, ancient Messini or south
to the Mani's numerous fishing villages, to the enchanting caves of Diros, and to the southernmost tip of continental Europe,
Cape Tainaro. The foothills of the Taigetos mountain range are covered by a complex of marked footpaths that lead to enchanting
hamlets and villages with churches full of intricate frescoes. Hikes to Viros gorge (4 hours) or to Koskarakas gorge
(3-6 hours) is a fascinating experience for those who love nature and walking. Closer to Kardamili one can find Old Kardamili,
(one of the places where the Greek revolution of 1821 began), a rebuilt settlement made up of fortified towers that encompass
the Byzantine church of Aghios Spiridonas, where the atmosphere of the Mani, its traditions and its people can still be felt.
