The property had a variety of options- hotel rooms or bungalows. There is a pool or safe access to a private beach. Dinner options were great, especially the buffet dinner. Breakfast was superb too.

Great hotel excellent staff. STAY HERE!!
Fantastic stay. Staff incredible, Adrienne at front desk was brilliant and curly haired girl at breakfast so helpful and pleasant. All covid measures adhered to including temp checks at check in which reassured us. Travelled with our 5 year old and our 8 month old. Facilities were excellent for them. Pool was perfect and safe for our kids. Food outstanding and breakfast a very high quality. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Easy access to a lovely swimming spot right across the street. Convenient location to get all the local restaurants and bars. Couldnt recommend it enough and have stayed in quite a few places locally. Will definitely be back.

Good stay, excellent staff.
Very enjoyable stay overall. Excellent service and very helpful and friendly staff. Very good breakfast and good food quality in the pool bar & beach bar. The only drawback was that the hotel's beach was a bit small and has limited access for a family with stroller (stairs to reach the sea). Still lots of good options nearby.

Services and facilities were great and very clean. Breakfast is a good size with lots of options. The staff are all friendly and happy to help out with what you need. Beach bar Costa Costa is beautifully positioned, with great cocktails and service as well as its own little beach. There are other small beaches next to it if the hotel one is full. Make sure to hire a car because if you don’t the options for nearby restaurants/supermarket/days out is pretty limited as the hotel is quite isolated. Mikri Mantineia is a 10 minute walk but there is no shop and only a few restaurants.

Good hotel but no fresh juice
Breakfast was quite disappointing . No fresh juice , tinned fruit instead of fresh and cookies not that great . It's a pitty because Kalamata produces fresh fruit and it's very cheap to source from local producers . Also , the room didn't have an iron and the hair dryer was not powerful . They do offer free ironing services though , until 5pm. No kettle in the room so we had to ask for hot water for our tea and coffee . Hotel staff very helpful . We got a better room than the room that we paid for . Location is great , bed was more than comfortable and the garden was good as well .

Excellent service
We stayed for 5 nights. The location was great, easy to get to Kalamata. We had our car so we tried all the beaches in the area. Room was clean, beds were comfortable. The breakfast buffet was excellent. Large selection of both hot and cold dishes to choose from. Also the pool restaurant/cafe had very good food. All the employees were very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel to others.

Spent only 1 night
Booked this hotel according to the Tripadvisor's info. Absolutely wonderful place. Personnel, room, even bedclothes! New and clean. We arrived late, but receptionist was on duty and gave us 2 room apartment (we booked just twin beds). So, 2 rooms with 2 balconies and possibility to arrange drought. The see view was just splendid! Pool is not big, but 3-4 people can feel comfortably swimming there (also pool for children adjoin). The breakfast was standard, but good quality. Nothing super, but everything to be sated. Huge parking lot (complimentary). Decent free Wi-Fi (though had broken next morning :)) All in all - highly recommended if you have a car.

Pool bar is worth the visit!
We stayed here one night and would go back, just for the pool bar with the amazing view out over the beach. The room was pretty basic, but very clean and tidy, with a balcony and a room safe and fridge. The mini bar costs were also very reasonable. Breakfast was included and was a good spread, although the coffee was a shock for this Aussie as the milk wasn't our milk. I think it was condensed. The resort is out of Kalamata and we had a little trouble locating it, mostly because we hadn't realised Kalamata would be quite a big as it was. The service was very friendly and efficient. We'd recommend it.

Nice hotel which can do much better
We booked this hotel basis reviews and some of the pictures on the website - in principle good location (a few km out of the busy Kalamata) - hotel staff welcoming and professional and checked us in early (we arrived 11am) - thank you. The condition of the bungalow room was dissapointing however - very clean but outdated and uncomfortable (did not resemble what we booked not by a mile). Nice pool though choice and quality of food average at best - the hotel did have access to the see via a balcony bar (which you had to cross the busy road to access or via underground access) - the little stretch of pebble beach was delightful - perfect for watching the sunset or having a swim in the crystal clear sea. Overall satisfactory and would book again if rooms were only a little more comfortable and modern.

Great base from which to see kalamata area
Hotel is well designed and well kept. Breakfast was very good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Facilities were nice, pool, restaurant, beach bar lounge chairs. Close to taverns and nearby beach with chairs and cafe. Hotel beach across the street was very small but this was not a problem as there was a beach nearby. My only real complaint is that the bed was very hard. I would return to this hotel in the future but would ask for a bed topping. Really enjoyed the Greek music by the poolside one evening. I thought this was a treat.

Wonderful Hotel---Great Views, Mountainside or Sea
This is a "Hospital Clean" hotel. The views of the sea or the mountains are simply sensational. This is a resort hotel and has resort amenities, although not as complete as those in other locations or countries. The buffet breakfast was the best, by far, that we have had anywhere in Greece, and we've traveled the entire country, including twelve islands. The staff is attentive and will take care of all of your reasonable needs. The location is a bit out of the way, but then again, this IS a resort hotel designe for customers to stay for more than a couple nights. Having said that, we would highly recommend this hotel "in a heartbeat"! :-))

One of the better kept hotels
We stayed at the resort for two days and found it a step above the rest we stayed on our trip to Greece. Very friendly staff, although some does not speak English and yet is put on bar duty. The view from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking. The grounds are meticuluosly kept and an underground tunnel with an elevator is a nice, but unnecassary, touch. Traffic on the road is really light and handicapped people won't be able to use it anyway due to additional stairs. Breakfast is your regular hotel offering that everybody calls "american breakfast" which was included in room price. Due to september being a "winter" month, beach restaurant was already closed. In any event I wouldn't call a tiny strip of pebbles a beach. More like water access. I would strongly recommend water shoes if you want to take a dip. Resort offers nice dinner buffet for those not interested in driving into town to eat. I wholeheartedly recommend this place.

Rooms In The Bungalow Section Dreadful
The first time we stayed here we were very happy with the hotel. The second time not as much. There are two buildings, the hotel rooms and what they call bungalows. The hotel rooms are nice. Clean and relatively new. The bungalows are dreadful. Our room had a toilet that wasn't working properly, the basin in the bathroom was falling off the wall and the shower wasn't properly enclosed so the bathroom floor flooded after using the shower. The location of the hotel however is lovely, the walk down to the beach easy and the pool beautiful and well maintained. The gardens are gorgeous too. I would be sure to ask for a room in the main building if you're considering this hotel.

Great Hotel, Get Dinner Somewhere Else
The desk staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. The pool bar would bring ice water, even if you didn't want to order anything - very nice - and the pool was wonderful. The beach was small and very rocky, but had a lovely view, and you could enjoy it from the cafe just above the beach. Quiet area about a 10-minute drive from Kalamata itself - and well-signed once you get close to it. The breakfast had a nice selection of international flavours to suit almost any palate. The only disappointment was the restaurant - passable food served 75 minutes after ordering... we were basically left starving for an hour, and were asked to pay twice (once when we asked if they took credit cards - they just said "no" and asked us to sign our room number on the bill; and then they chased us down when we left after *finally* eating, treating us like were were dine-and-dashers!). I would recommend the hotel, but unless you aren't very hungry, get dinner in town and not the hotel.
