It is one of the new settlements of Mani that was created at the end of the 17th century (around 1680) when the Venetian administration of the region wanted to settle the area by transferring inhabitants from the southern villages of the Zygos captaincy to fill the population gap. It was basically settled by the inhabitants of Nomitsi. They settled and built houses from materials taken from the demolished town of Lefktro. In the following decade, a few settlers from Milea arrived and settled in the area. It is the largest local community of the municipality of West Mani. It consists of the settlements of Neochori, Lefktro and Stoupa. The population is engaged in olive-growing and the exploitation of tourist businesses (room rentals, restaurants, entertainment centres, etc.), since the area receives the largest tourist flow to West Mani. The village is amphitheatrically built on a hill at an altitude of 200 metres.
