Modern but old stone look to buildings. Good pool and outside space and easy access to beach/sea. Nicely located in a more peaceful spot just outside Gytheion. Friendly and helpful staff. If you wanted to "flop and drop" there's everything to hand: even a bar and restaurant on site. You can see a lot of thought and effort has been made in creating the hotel.

Make sure you get an upper floor room. We experienced a lot of noise from other people's use of their bathroom. Plus our room felt a bit dark and cool inside. Very extensive and generous range of breakfast choices on offer. But all on demand from a menu. Maybe allow buffet type access to guests for the cold stuff and pastries, and just serve hot drinks and dishes on order to the table. Sort of felt you had to make your mind up for everything all at once.

A wonderful resort just 10 min drive from Gytheo. We really enjoyed the amenities here, a great pool, lovely grassy seating area under the trees, and the beach with sun loungers and umbellas. The staff were very kind, always bringing us waters wherever we sat and they served a great breakfast by the pool. You can choose what you like from their menu. Very comfortable bed and spacious room with a cute little balcony and sea view. Overall we had a very relaxing stay and could not have asked for anything better! Thank you all so much!

Just a tip, the hot water takes quite a while to come. Turn the tap to the left and let it run for 3-5 min. Once it comes it is nice and hot!

A nice reasonably spacious room and small view of the sea. Beds were comfortable with good quality linen. The hotel is modern and the garden and pool area was attractive. Breakfast and restaurant was OK. Great parking area. Wi-Fi worked well. Hotel is located well out of town, so you need a car. Fantastic access to the beach.

Breakfast was a menu where you can order up to 15 items per person. Each item is served separately so you end up with far too many plates and bowls on your table. We had dinner and lunch in the restaurant on one occasion - was fairly average. The room has a hard heavy wooden couch, uncomfortable to sit on. Our bathroom sink had a small leak so the cupboard space underneath couldn't be used for toiletries. We alerted reception but the leak did not get fixed. The room has a loft, but there is no seating or daybed in the loft so the space can't be used.

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.

We stayed in this hotel for 1 night during a road trip. The staff was extremly friendly and helpful, the room clean and lovely and the sea-view from the balcony definitelly does the trick. Walking to the sandy beach outside is just 10 meters. Really great.

Breakfast is served by waiters ( = it's nit a free buffet where you pick items to your own plate). You get a menu, then you choose items from this menu and then the items are delivered to your table. If you want anything else - same drill again. It's not bad, just time cinsuming. I prefer a buffet....

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.

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.

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.

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.

recently stayed at the Castello Antico Hotel with my family for 4 days, and I can honestly say that it was a real gem. The hotel is located in the picturesque village of Mavrovouni, on the Mani Peninsula in Greece. The setting is absolutely stunning, with the hotel overlooking a beautiful sandy beach and the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated in a traditional Greek style, with exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, and traditional wooden furniture. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and all have balconies or terraces with stunning views of the sea. The staff at the hotel are incredibly friendly and helpful, and they go out of their way to make sure that you have a memorable stay. The breakfast buffet is absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of fresh local produce. The hotel also has a lovely pool area, which is perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the area. We had a wonderful time at the Castello Antico Hotel, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway in Greece. Here are some of the things that made the Castello Antico Hotel a real gem: The stunning location, overlooking a beautiful beach The traditional Greek décor The spacious and comfortable rooms The friendly and helpful staff The delicious breakfast buffet The lovely pool area If you're looking for a truly special place to stay in Greece, I highly recommend the Castello Antico Hotel.

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!

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).

Super relax location, on a sandy beach. Very large room with terrace. Amazingly friendly staff. Superb breakfast. Ideal for visiting the Mani region. Parking spot for the car.

Everything perfect!
