Great holiday place!
Great stay, fantastic location, very friendly staff and super clean!
The management knocks themselves out in an effort to make your stay pleasant. One of the managers even gave us a going away bottle of olive oil from his land. I would return here if I have the chance!
Nice beachfront hotel. Flight of steps to get to room. Bathroom could be bigger but room was large and balcony was very nice. Nice pool. Very friendly and informative desk clerk. Good stay
Wonderful stay at Mantinia Bay started with warm welcome by the reception staff. Room was impeccably clean and the breakfast was scrumptious. Homemade jam was the best I've ever had and it was delivered promptly to the terrace where it was set up so we can enjoy overlooking the beautiful view. I cannot say enough good things about this place.
Its not the conventional type of hotel as our room was like an apartment, it had a small kitchen area with table and chairs, we loved it. The hotel was modern, well presented and we were made to feel welcome. The service was brilliant and the staff we're friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and I liked he fact we had to have it having in our room or by the pool. The private beach area with sunloungers and drinks/food service was so close to the hotel and was brilliant. I loved my time here it was so relaxing time and I would definitely stay here again. It wasn't very busy in June but I have a feeling it may be much busier later in the season.

The hotel is quite nice. Staff were welcoming, the room was nicely furnished and clean. The area surrounding the pool was also quite nice and a good place to have breakfast. But the surrounding area (not a village, more of a beach strip) was rather run down and lacking in charm. My sister and I went out for dinner and there was no one else around. We had dinner in one of the 3 restaurants and there were no other diners anywhere. I am unlikely to return to the area but if I did I would stay in Kalamata itself.

Nice modern hotel in a great beach area with large rooms and nicely appointed with a little balcony. We had a view of the pool on the first floor which was nice. Check in was quick and pleasant. You get a sheet at check in to order your breakfast the next day and call the morning of and they will deliver it to either your room, by the pool or on the upper terrace. The choices are the usual ones but plentiful and very good. The beach is right across the street and they have beach chairs and umbrellas free of charge for you to use but there are not that many so get there early. We watched the sunset on the beach last night and it was beautiful. Lots of restaurants on that strip to,choose from although the hotel has this own little restaurant in the hotel or you can walk across the street and have a gorgeous view. Had their Mango Passion milkshake which was just okay. I think it was a nice choice for the money and would recommend it. They also sell olive oil, wine, pastas, etc in the lobby and are pretty reasonable.

Service was friendly and efficient. The only inconvenience was that breakfast had to taken in the room or outside. No elevator to 2nd floor.
Charming nevertheless.

Dear george,
At first we would like to thank you for choosing Mantinia Bay Hotel**** for your accommodation and for the time you spent in order to share your impressions with the rest of the travel community. It is a true fact, as you describe, that the breakfast is served either in the sitting area of the room or outside, in one of the common areas, such as the area next to the pool or the "roof-garden" styled balcony or by the beach at Nautica Bay Cafe sitting area! On the other hand, the elevator serves a part of the second floor rooms, but not all.
We will be very happy to welcome you back in Miri Mantinia as soon as possible.

A lovely, clean, bright and very spacious room with kitchenette and patio. Outstanding service from a staff of a family owned and operated hotel. Great breakfast with an option of having it in your room free of charge.
The only issue was that the location was about 10 min outside Kalamata so getting in to the city centre required taxi service. Otherwise, a really fine option

Young hotel, near the beach very clean and well kept. Toaster oven, refrigerator, coffee percolator and electric stove are included in the room. The staff (in our case –the owner) is very kind and always ready to help.

Tip: This hotel is for those who are looking for a quality experience but don't have to be in the hubbub of Kalamata.
Our experience was remarkable as we just lucked into the hotel and found the hosts incredibly hospitable, eager to please and the hotel facilities amazing.
Their pool is one of the best we have seen in Greece and the stylish decor and furnishings are terrific, especially when the price of the hotel is factored into the equation. Breakfast was truly astonishing as well.
This is a FIVE!

Прекрасный отель в пригороде города Каламата
В этом отеле останавливаемся уже во второй раз на несколько ночей . Все нравится .
1. Отлично расположен , через дорогу от оборудованного пляжа
2. Отличный кондиционер, в жаркий август это - очень важно.
3. Хорошо работает WIFI и в отеле и на пляже .
4. Рядом - 5/6 отличных ресторанчиков для обеда и ужина .
5. Комната большая , 35 м , но довольно скромная . Но нас вполне устраивает .
Aimé: La chambre est immense, le lit aussi. La douche est excellente. Les terrasses sont belles et offrent de belles vues. L'hôtel fournit les serviettes de plage. Beaux restos au bord de l'eau à quelques mètres.
Moins aimé: La vue panoramique est un peu exagérée: il y a vue sur le building d'à côté et sur la piscine. Pour voir la mer, il faut laisser la porte ouverte! Et à quoi sert la cuisinière si on n'a ni poelon, ni casserole?
Sehr nettes Personal, das für einen erholsamen und unkomplizierten Aufenthalt sorgte. Strand mit Liegestühlen sind top! Gutes Wunschfrühstück! Tolle Strandtavernen sind fußläufig zu erreichen.

New confortable beach hotel and excelllent service
Martinia was a nice experience and well located for exploring the Peloponnes coastal area and the nice towns south of the hotel along the coast. Breakfast at high level next to the pool or by the beach. Really nice staff all through and good food at the beach restaurant.
Αγαπητέ Vaggelis,
Θα θέλαμε να σας ευχαριστήσουμε που προτιμήσατε το ξενοδοχείο. Όλη η ομάδα προσπαθεί να ικανοποιήσει τους επισκέπτες με στόχο την επιστροφή τους μελλοντικά σε αυτό.
Με χαρά θα σας καλωσορίσουμε και πάλι εδώ, στην Μικρή Μαντίνεια.
Όλα ήταν πολύ ωραία. Το δωμάτιο ήταν πολύ μεγάλο και άνετο με δική του κουζίνα. Το ξενοδοχείο ήταν μικρό και ήσυχο. Το προσωπικό του ξενοδοχείου πολύ φιλικό και εξυπηρετικό.
