"hotel- pool and waterslides were great and kept the kids entertained every day. Hotel room was dated and not great, occasionally had a horrible smell that would come and go, ants on the patio made us scared to open the patio. Told reception and they sorted it immediately, but they kept coming back so we took to soaking the patio everyday to try keep it at bay, not something you wanna do on holidays though. Also a wasp nest on the tree outside our room but tbh the wasps weren’t that bad they left you alone, weren’t aggressive or anything. Hotel room on the grand scheme didn’t bother us much because we mainly only go into the room to sleep. Location- if your goal is a relaxing holiday it’s great, right by the beach, stunning views of the mountains, pool and slides on site, and it hasn’t got much else near so it forces you to slow down a little and that’s exactly what we wanted this holiday. Food- food wasn’t as bad as I expected reading reviews. My son’s autistic and he stuck to toast, chips, plain pasta and pancakes. My daughter had a lot more variety freshfruit/pastas/chicken/pork/desserts etc. me and my husband always had a couple bits for mains and dessert was always lovely. Pizza was delicious and made fresh. Same with the pancakes. Waffle machines were a hit, although one did go bang one morning. Guy quickly replaced it with another. Airport- Kalamata airport is tiny and tbh I found that so stress free. The fact there’s only like 2 gates made it impossible to miss your flight. Staff- we’re mostly lovely, smiled and helpful. Pizza guy/ life guard was nice as was the pancake man and the table clearers were always so polite and smiley. Overall we had a relaxing stay, definitely wouldn’t have managed more than one week but the week was good. Anything more I think it would’ve gotten very boring. Putting it down a star for the fact the room was pretty awful but keeping it to four because I do feel like the reviews put us off a lot before we went and you should definitely make your own opinion when you go."

"It was a nice stay in general. The residence was quite big, clean and modern, with a lot of electric sockets in all rooms, even in bathroom. It had a great view of the sea. When we asked for a pillow as we were 4 persons and there were 3 available, the responsible person brought it to us on the next day (she tried to bring it on the same day but by mistake she left it in another residence). We did not have any issue with insects as all windows and external doors (except bathroom) had a mesh screen, and it was possible for us to stay late at night on the balcony, playing board games without issue. The only drawbacks: 1) Passage from parking area to residence did not have enough light so we had to use our mobile phones' strong light, and 2) The access from the road was easy to lose if you do not know the area (we know the area so we did not have an issue). A good quick solution for visitors is to have the big hotel Sunrise Hotel as a spot that is in the same turn of the road. However, residence owner should change the current Hotel sign with one with light or at least with one with light reflection so that it can easily be seen at night. By the way, the property did not send us check-in instructions via email before arrival, but we called the owner 1 day before arrival date and he provided the instructions needed: if someone wants to use a map app, they need to use the iMaps app in an iOS device, if available, as google maps does not lead you correctly to the hotel. Another good suggestion would be to add 1-2 11 kW chargers for electric cars in the parking area. I could not use my electric car in these holidays as there was no fast charger close to the area, so I had to get the one using unleaded gas (not the best option for me). Adding such chargers will give important advantage to the hotel owner versus the other hotels that have not installed one yet as more and more people are using electric cars (just consider that the company I work for have globally decided to change its global car fleet to electric cars until end of 2025). In our Greek affiliate, we will complete this change by end of 2024, so that about 110 cars will all be electric until then (and just consider that this is just a single company, while more and more companies worldwide are switching their fleets to electric cars)."
