    The stay here was hugely enjoyable and there is nothing to fault. The architecture of the rooms in the local Mani style is very pleasing. The room of a good size was well appointed and spotless. Breakfast was of the highest quality and there was a very good selection. The restaurant served excellent meals at very reasonable prices. And the staff were without fail of the highest standard - exemplary in the performance of their duties - cheerful and efficient. Good car parking. Easy access to the beach and a nice pool.

    Lots of stairs not good for someone with leg problems. Parking at front entrance of hotel premises quite a substantial walk to the room but once you got there it was worth the outlook.

    Views of olive groves and out to ocean were wonderful. Breakfast served at pool area was amazing with good selection and eggs cooked for you any way you like. Big range of teas and fresh fruit brought to you Al La Carte style. Bar open in the evening for cocktails. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    This is a lovely hotel by the sea. The staff were very welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We ate dinner at the hotel and it was excellent. Breakfast was exceptional. Even though the stay included a free breakfast, we were given a menu and could order whatever wanted and it was delicious. If we are in the area again, we will definitely return. Thank you!

    There is not much to do around the hotel and for everything you need a car, for us it didn't matter because we just stayed at the hotel which was amazing.

    the hotel location at the beach was amazing, the food at the restaurant was really good the room was clean and comfortable. we enjoyed it very much

    Not a dislike but more a word of caution: The rooms are on various levels and the ones on the top floor have quite a few stairs. Three flights of stone steps lead to the upper rooms presenting a challenge to anyone with mobility issues. While the architecture of the hotel is part of its charm make sure you check how many stairs are involved if you are travelling with someone who is elderly or may have difficulty climbing stairs. I should note that the hotel quickly moved us into a more accessible room when we asked and sent a staff member to move our bags.

    Everything. Comfortable, large, spotless room with a lovely covered stone balcony. Wonderful, attentive staff and beautiful grounds. You can hang out by the pool, curl up with a book or take a nap under the mulberry trees in the garden or spend the day at the beach. Umbrellas and lounge chairs were always available and they even had a staff member come by periodically to wipe the sand off the chairs. The wind does pick up and the water can get choppy in the afternoon. Great for windsurfing though.

    We could have used an electric kettle in the room for making tea and a coffee machine would have been great as well. For such a fine hotel I would also expect Conditioner and Lotion and not just Shampoo and soap. Bring your own and come anyway.

    We fell in love with this place! It's charming, beautiful, comfortable, great atmosphere, quiet elegance. The room was spacious and comfortable and very aesthetic. We were thrilled that the porch doors and windows had screens to keep the bugs away, which we haven't seen in many places in Greece. Nicoletta and all the staff are kind, warm and helpful. Breakfast is excellent!! Guests are served rich and varied menus, from which you can choose anything and everything, and it's all delicious and fresh. Their dinner restaurant is also very good. And - the beach it is on is stunning and quite and hotel guests have free sunbeds and umbrellas. Gythio with it's many delicious taverns is a short drive away. It's a great base for exploring Mani or just to relax and never want to leave.

    The breakfast was changed from buffet to Á la carte compred to last time we were here.

    Although it was fully booked we don’t felt it at all. The location is fantastic, seaview, mountain view. The room was nice, huge and every day it was cleaned and we got new towels every day. Very kind and friendly stuff. The 4th time here. A real castle feeling with beautiful architecture and attention to the minute details.

    Sustainability has room for improvement. Although it might be nice to have A/C operating while windows are open, it doesn’t show a sustainable mindset. Also by improving energy efficiency/sustainability/CO2 footprint, could lead to a slightly better price for accommodation, while owners could also save $$. (Could be at least 30-40€ cheaper per night, to be also a “great” and not a “good” value4money).

    This is our 5th year in a row visiting same hotel with my wife and 4years old son. It is a unique hotel to relax with a very nice, wide and quiet beach to spend time with family. Personnel is exceptional, super kind, and always there for you! Breakfast is superb and also served to you (no buffet self service), which is very nice also. Service at the beach, also makes you worry about nothing! Keep up nice work!
