Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Kalamata
For the vast majority of travelers, Kalamata International Airport (KLX) is the most efficient choice, as it is the only airport situated in the city itself. It provides the fastest and most cost-effective access to the city center, primarily via taxi or local bus. Other options are not airports of Kalamata but are located in neighboring cities or regions, necessitating much longer travel times. Athens International Airport "Eleftherios Venizelos" (ATH) serves the capital region and is a major international gateway, though it requires a significant 3-hour journey by coach or private transfer to reach Kalamata. Araxos Airport (GPA) serves the Patras area and similarly requires a long road transfer to reach the Peloponnese south. Meanwhile, Kefalonia International Airport (EFL) and Kithira Airport (KIT) are located on islands; these routes are highly complex, relying on combinations of ferries and buses, and should only be chosen if the flight schedule aligns perfectly with your holiday plans. Always book transfers in advance where possible to secure fixed pricing and ensure reliable service.

Excellent service, but I suggest you rethink the spa pool policy in the low season. The outside pool was closed for the winter, and no point in booking a more expensive room with an attached private pool (unheated), which leaves the downstairs spa pool. Charging guests to use this for 45-minute sessions meant the pool was empty and unavailable for a spontaneous dip. Perhaps instead, you can allow a limited number of guests to use the pool at any one time.
Location: There's a well-lit path into town, but it's a LONG walk. The hotel was very helpful in arranging a taxi.
Breakfast was excellent.
Service was friendly and attentive.Very Good62 Reviews

From the room decoration, it is a hotel with a sense of age. As soon as I entered the hotel, I was a warm and polite reception at the front desk. I specially introduced where the breakfast pool is. If you need it, you can call for rent and so on. It feels good.
Say something that is not satisfactory:
1Stayed for two days, the first night air conditioning was OK, relatively stable, the second night air conditioning was not a constant temperature state, a while the air conditioner started cold, quickly covered the quilt, a while hot to open the quilt, the whole night was between the hot wake up and the cold wake up, did not sleep well.
2 Specially for the hotel beach and pool, but the beach is opposite the hotel, across the road, but the whole Karamata is like this, the beach on the side of the promenade is the beach, and the hotel bar restaurant on the side. It doesn't matter if you are opposite, but there is no proprietary area beach. Bath towels must be asked for at the front desk. When you return to the hotel, you must return to the front desk. You can't take bath towels freely on the beach. You have to wear a swimsuit to go upstairs at the hotel. In fact, it is completely possible if the waiter collects bath towels from the room.
Besides, the hotel's swimming pool is very large and beautiful. It can be used after 10 am. It will be closed at 7 pm. If you come back from the beach, it is impossible to go to the pool and play for a while. Rarely encounter a pool that is not received so early. In the pool, hotel guests must also consume to play. We ordered pizza and chips, and we left half of them without eating. We went swimming and came back without confirming to us and was taken away (the lounge chairs were all our items, and it was not long after ordering). After responding to the staff, we filled us with chips, and the pizza couldn’t make up two pieces (the waiter said we had two left, but we actually went swimming after eating two pieces) and the remaining pizza made up two ice creams for us. The attitude of the waiter, from the apology before the filling to the arrogance of the filling, is very uncomfortable.
In short, this price corresponds to such facilities and services, and the price is not high.FromUS$106

This is a new hotel to the region. We got a room with a sea view and really worth the money! The room had all the amenities you expected from a 5 star hotel, super clean and organised. Breakfast was rich offering a combination of traditional local tastes and a variety of international classic buffet options. Stuff was very polite, always ready to help you with a smile. Covid rules were generally implemented such as use of mask by the stuff and serving the breakfast however it would be better if they were bit stricter with guests asking also to wear the masks and be more mindful with not approaching the buffet area. Pool area was fantastic - Messinian bay view all over! We did not try the restaurant at the hotel as there is plenty of traditional taverns around! We will definitely go back!FromUS$210

Very comfortable hotel. Good rooms, decent breakfast, comfortable beds. But a very small beach on the sea. And everything would be good, but on the second day of our stay, a large group of children arrived at the hotel. And the hotel turned into a children's camp. If the children were on the beach, there were no places for other guests anymore. If the children were at the pool, the same story. And where there are many children, it is always very noisy.FromUS$96
