"AGROS" Guesthouse

"HARMONY OF QUALITY AND TRADITIONAL FLAVOURS"... This is the motto of the owners of the "EVONYMON" company who, in 2013, made an effort to change their lifestyle by following a new healthy life. Based on their understanding of the Mediterranean Diet, they decided to utilise the excellent products of Messenia. Thus, the "EVONYMON" company was "born", the "child" of a pharmacist and a chemist, with the aim of contributing to the production and standardisation of authentic Greek products, such as the extra virgin olive oil and aromatic Greek herbs they grow on their estate under the name “Agros”.

At the heart of the owners' philosophy and in the context of actively raising awareness of the respect and protection of our natural environment, they have aimed to bring more people closer to nature and introduce them to the beauty and secrets of life in the countryside.

Based on these principles, at the "AGROS" guest house, guests have the opportunity to learn and develop in environmental issues by having the experience of staying in nature. The farm on which the guesthouse "AGROS" is located is a beautiful and peaceful place, a natural refuge among the olive trees, herbs and vegetables.

The guest house is 25 sq.m. and has a large double bed, kitchenette and a wonderful terrace with a view of the olive groves that stretch to Methoni and the sea.

The site also offers a series of tours called Farm Experiences that combine information about growing, harvesting, and production, as well as olive oil and wine tasting and pairing with different flavours.
