Staying in Arapakis Historic Castle under the great hospitality of Ketty was one of the highlights in many year of travelling the World - From the quit, beautyful little stonehouse village of Charia, the archaic landscape, the noce little nearby beach to the pampering with homemade treats from Ketty and her husband and the overall kindness and hospitality - this is Greece at its very best!

Very nice base camp to explore the Mani

This is a very nice place to stay and explore the Mani. Arapakis castle and Pandora belong to the same people. Upon our arrival, we visited a few rooms in both to choose the one we prefer. And then, the person at the front desk gave us tips and things to do in the Mani, good restaurants, pleasant beaches,... Very helpful. Mani was one of our favorites spots during the trip and Pandora hotel has a lot to do with that. Thank you so much.

Sehr gepflegte Anlage in toller Umgebung

Sehr freundliches Service, gute Ausstattung und sehr sauber! Arapakis Castle und Pandora gehören zusammen und sind unmittelbar benachbart. Nur zu empfehlen! Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Ferienwohnung mit Terrasse und Blick auf das Meer. Nur ein paar Kilometer mit dem Auto nach Areopoli. Es werden auch lokale Produkte zu günstigen Preisen verkauft.

Ησυχία και ξεκούραση !

Μείναμε μόνο για 2 νύχτες, Οικογένεια με ένα παιδί. Με το που φτάσαμε μας υποδέχτηκε η Ιδιοκτήτρια Κυρία Καίτη όπου μας πρόσφερε κάτι δροσερό και μας ενημέρωσε για την ιστορία του Πύργου Αραπάκη αλλά και της Πανδώρας.. Δωμάτια καθαρά με πολλές ανέσεις για οτιδήποτε χρειαστείς. Καλούτσικο Πρωινό με φρέσκα τοπικά προιόντα. Θα το προτιμήσουμε ξανά στο μέλλον !
