100 Rizes Seaside Resort- Small Luxury Hotels of the World

We had a great weekend at the hotel. We have been customers for the past 4 years and we always go at the beginning of the season. From the first moment we were impressed with the hotel and its location – traditional Maniatika houses with stone and wood – particularly large in size with expensive materials and good taste, in an olive grove with a small private sandy beach, with clear and shallow waters and a view of Gythio. However we faced a difference between quality, location and service. Year after year the service improved but the quality of the food remained low, always in line with the high quality of the hotel and its dreamy surroundings. But in 2023, when Konstantinos Kyriazis became the new Director, we saw a big difference in service, in the kind hospitality and in the willingness to please the customer. Nevertheless, there was an issue with the cleanliness of the beach, the customer service on the beach and of course the food at the hotel. In 2024 when we went again, the same Manager welcomed us with the joy and courtesy you expect as an old and repeated customer and with extra facilities that enslaved us, while we saw that the problems of the beach were now solved. But our biggest pleasant surprise was that the hotel had a Chef, Chef Akis Drougas, and we enjoyed our evening with a wonderful dinner in a wonderful environment with a very nice list of Greek wines. The cuisine is modern Greek, as we expect it to be in a Greek boutique hotel. He was very kind and willing to serve us with a sur mesure meal on Sunday afternoon, just as we wished and suited us. This hotel is a little gem and we hope it remains as it is, with the right ratio of quality and price so that we can enjoy it in the future and it will not become a hotel only for foreigners in Greece.

We spent two delightful days touring the Mani peninsula and relaxing here. Service at breakfast and dinner was exemplary. The staff was engaging and attentive to all of our needs. Breakfast was served to your room or in the dining area and was excellent. Dinner was also great! Beautiful setting to escape from city life!

Great place for a family to relax and enjoy the surrounding beauty. First of all, the room was clean, had all possible amenities and the view from the room was simply amazing. Staff was amazing, very helpful and available for anything we wanted, at any time of the day. Food at the hotel restaurant was great (great pizza by the way), and great cocktails! Definitely one of the top options for hotels in the area!

Lovely hotel in a beautiful location and nice room and very comfortable bed. The housekeeping was very good and the staff on the whole were very friendly. The breakfast was good with lots of choice and the lunches / dinners were good but there was a lack of choice without a changing menu. The only criticism I would have is that the management didn’t match the luxury expected from this type of hotel. The organisation especially at breakfast times was chaotic which left me feeling really sorry for the young staff who were trying their best and were really helpful and friendly. Special mention to Penny who was waiting on most days and was so helpful and friendly and epitomises what service is all about. With a few small tweaks this place could be amazing but I would still recommend it and enjoyed my holiday.

Situated in a unique part of Mani and surrounded by olive trees, it is not difficult to understand that this hotel offers a memorable holiday experience! Very smooth check in and valuable proposals for dining, excursions, beaches via a QR code guidance! Clear explanation about the rules of hotel, breakfast procedure, and premises. Suite with private garden best choice! The best bed system of cocomat mattress is offered, as well as, nespresso machine. Daily housekeeping just perfect. The breakfast served in room or in public area (try it every day, start your day actually in the nature). The breakfast needs improvements, especially regarding the cooking. On the other hand, during our dinner everything was delicious. Many thanks to all staff, very polite and with the willingness to client's serve. Higly recommended!

Once upon a time, at Small Luxury Resorts the emphasis was on luxury. This is not the case. Situated in a magnificent bay it has significant architectural flaws and suffers from really poor service. On a sunny day there are not enough shady spots around the place. There are six umbrellas in the beach and a few olive trees, which – as all Greeks know – are not famous for their shade. The rooms are nice and spacious but don’t bring too many clothes because there is no closet (see picture). The veranda outside our room was livable only after 15.00 hrs because there was no shade. It is clear that the property was not completed as some fixtures and outside spaces appear to belong to a one-star low budget hotel (see pictures).The service is really poor. For example, on our first day they were out of beach towels and on the third day they gave us bathroom towels for the beach. Breakfast requires a weird bureaucracy of filling out a two-page form in advance, and if you don’t love the sun on your head, you must have it inside your room. Lunch is not possible due to the lack of shade, apart from some snacks by the beach and dinner - which quality wise is decent - offers little variety of plates. The place is understaffed, and the existing staff is totally untrained. With all due respect to the post covid difficulties, neither the SLH logo nor the prices can forgive this level of service.

100 Rizes hotel is announced as a small luxury hotel, and it is indeed located in a beautiful bay, with nice rooms, nice pool with direct access to a private beach just 20m away from the pool. A nice garden to relax under an olive tree, great view. points for improvement: The food (breakfast, lunch, dinner) was average and we had expected more from this place. The staff is friendly and tried to help as much as possible. We discussed the issue of the food with the manager and she was open for the comments and promised to work on this. Rooms are very good, with view over the bay, good working airconditioning, small fridge, good cleaning, bathrobes and slippers. Wellness is small, but with a good option for massage. Overall, this can be an excellent hotel if these issues can be solved.

100 Rizes hotel is announced as a small luxury hotel, and it is indeed located in a beautiful bay, with nice rooms, good pool and private beach. At first sight very nice ! but the management is unfortunately terrible: we had to have breakfast in the room and order it one day in advance (I could understand this was needed during COVID, but not any longer - it was the only hotel during our trip that requested this); breakfast is average quality, lunch was good, dinner was poor quality. There are not sufficient beach towels for all guests ! There is not sufficient cutlery for all guests I think since it was not possible to get a coffee spoon for all of us (there was only 1 available !!), the place is understaffed. The staff is friendly and tries to help, but they can not fix the wrong management rules... Overall, this would be an excellent hotel if the management would be capable of running a luxury place. They are not at this moment !! Stay away until this is solved.
