Hotels Near Evmareia in Kalamata

We came for one week and stayed 2 weeks, as the hotel was so comfortable and we had an excellent stay. The location is amazing, right in the middle of everything. The rooms are clean, the beds are comfy, the stuff is so kind, and help us with any request we ask. The breakfast on the 5th floor balcony is so good, with such a great view! The hotel manager is a very good guy, being here all the time, and taking care that everything works well and everyone is pleased and having a great time. We will surely come back again to this place!

I've just come back from another enjoyable holiday at Garden City. We stayed at apartment 606 which had a great view of the pool and was impeccably maintained and cleaned. The last visit (of many) was in January 2023, the pool was warm and well supervised by a very attentive Lifeguard. We enjoyed a warm welcome at the pool bar from all the staff there. The food was excellent. The sandwiches are probably much bigger than you would expect and are a meal in themselves. The apartment complex is very conveniently located for the beaches from Troya to la Pinta. There is a choice of restaurants on the doorstep, a small but well stocked shop near the complex entrance and a larger supermarket at San Eugeno shopping centre within very easy walking distance. I have no hesitation in recommending Garden City , especially for couples and families. Personally we use a taxi to come and go to the airport, the queues are not onerous and the fare around 25 euros each way. Reception can however arrange for a minibus transport to the airport if you book it a day before, which would be especially suitable for groups of four or more. Booked next visit before leaving , been there about 20 times Only gripe is sunbeds which are routinely ”reserved” by putting towels on them all day but not using them all day. However in quieter months then there are sufficient sunbeds. Its a non issue for me as I seldom use them. There's an upper pool too, which is not heated to the same level, which is a bit chilly for January but great for March to October (imo). There's plenty of sunbeds there but you'll have to walk a short distance to the pool bar.

Fabulous hotel in a quiet location. Rooms lovely, we had a large balcony which was not overlooked. The towels and bed linen changed regularly. The pool area is great, really comfortable sunbeds and plenty of them. Generally quiet around the pool and the lovely staff bring jugs of iced water to you all day, which which is a very welcome touch. Location great with many restaurants within easy walking distance. Local bus is great for visiting Kalamata town centre which is worth a visit. We had a car for a couple of days and visited Stoupa, lovely fishing village and ancient town of Messini. Recommend Da Luz to eat in.

We went late June and we had one of those rooms with the private pool. Of course, like all hotels now days, the beds for the kids where in the living room. The one was the sofa and the other was a not that comfortable single bed. The bedroom was large and so was the bed. Still, I do not understand why the pillows only came in one size, large. The bathroom was big enough with a nice walk in shower. There was a big closet for clothes, but a really small refrigerator. I mean you could not fit a large water bottle in there. Like in many hotels, they offered free coffee but like no good hotel I have been to lately, they offered filter coffee not espresso. Not good filter coffee, and that goes for the tea too. Another disappointment. The small yard with the pool was nice, but accessible by others. I mean, there you are swimming or just lying there with your family, and there were people going through the far end of the yard. Why? I can understand for safety reasons, but that is why there was another entrance from the pool side. Our yard and pool where exposed to the sun all day. An umbrella would have been useful. The pool was big enough for the kids and you can have lots of fun. But the cleaning system was not on all the time. Thus, if you wanted to take swim early in the morning or late at night, then you had to swim with leaves, dead bugs and little trash. Furthermore, the door that gave access to the pool's mechanism was not locked, so everyone had access to it, even kids. Now, let me say that I am complaining a bit because this is a relatively new 5 star hotel, and one should have expectations for it, especially with the money required. Let me continue. In general, the room was clean and comfortable. The wifi was OK as far as speed and stable, but the password was not safe enough. Also, it is 2024, so USB outlets are a must. The hotel pool was nice and big enough. There was enough space for everybody and there was distance between the umbrellas. There was also a life guard, that also served as the man in charge of the towels, but also a very pleasant and friendly individual. But the sunbeds were from the 1980s and not comfortable, while some of the chairs were broken. That was unacceptable. The beach bar/restaurant was nice enough. There was a wide selection of things to drink and eat, and the prices were reasonable, while the portions were large. The only thing we did not like was the freddo cappuccino, but taste is a relative thing. Now, I cannot say the same about the breakfast. Although there was a wide selections on things to eat and drink, the quality was not always good enough. And if someone from the hotel is reading this, if you offer pancakes, that you should have maple syrup. I mean they had, but I had to ask for it every day. The people working there were really friendly, eager to help, and despite their obvious workload they were not grumpy. And this was the only thing that was 5 star. The hotel is situated at the
