"Amazing Zoe at Gialova. Second family visit 10/10 Location. Next to the restaurants and shops. Central to Pylos and Romanos area. Executive suites can be noisy next to the main road, especially as the Pylos - Kalamata road is under construction. 1 Minute walk to Martins which has everything you need food/drink/beach wise. Fantastic restaurant, beach area and service. Pool is huge, and never too busy. Beautiful garden/farm surroundings. Cleaning staff are excellent and lovely people. ."

"Lovely hotel, great and clean facilities and great breakfast. Staff are also incredibly lovely, and a nice touch to have small treats left in the room most days after servicing. A shame that the pool by the gym closed so early (5pm) and that despite not being busy at all (no one else was at the restaurant and it was off-peak timing), we weren't allowed to get a starter or snack at the beachside restaurant - we were told it was a 'gourmet experience' and so only main meals were allowed."
