Finikounta II beach

We only stayed for one night. The staff is extremely friendly, but the owners have mixed reviews. The pool area is lovely, and the beach is conveniently located. However, our mattress was incredibly firm, to the point where sleeping on the floor would have been more comfortable. As for the Wi-Fi, it's practically non-existent, so don't count on it.

The beach is a pleasant and family-friendly place to stay. The people there are friendly and always eager to provide you with the best service possible. The food is generally great and reasonably priced. However, the morning buffet could benefit from having a wider variety of food options.

The hotel for a holiday is excellent. It has a large pool, a beach that is only for hotel guests, and a wonderful restaurant. The rooms are kept clean and are spacious. The breakfast includes eggs, ham, bread, cereals, yogurt, and a variety of fresh fruit. Fonikounda is just a short 10-minute walk from the hotel, and it is a hidden gem with a lively main street that does not allow cars. There are also amazing places to visit nearby during your trip. I highly recommend The hotel for a truly perfect vacation.

We didn't actually stay at this hotel, but we were in the vicinity. My husband had a pleasant conversation with the owner, who spoke Greek. This was our third visit to Finikounda, and we only made use of the facilities, which were absolutely fantastic. The toilets were very clean, which is important to note. The food from the pool bar was excellent, and the pool itself was fabulous. The beach was truly amazing. We will definitely be returning for a fourth visit.

The hotel is situated in a fantastic location, providing easy access to a beautiful beach and boasting a delightful pool. The staff at the pool bar are friendly and the food is satisfying, particularly the gyros that taste just like those found in Greece. Despite the language barrier, the breakfast and pool bar staff go out of their way to accommodate our requests and make us feel welcome. The rooms are clean and spacious, featuring large balconies, and the air conditioning effectively cools the room. However, the hotel falls short in terms of its rooms. The beds are uncomfortably hard and there is only one thin pillow provided. The showers are not properly mounted on the wall, the lightbulbs emit different colors and either blind you or barely illuminate the room. The WiFi is extremely unreliable, cutting out after a mere 15 minutes. The owner can be a bit gruff and dismissive, showing annoyance at the presence of sand in the shower and disregarding the opinions of the women in our group. Additionally, my personal room lacked a Do not disturb sign, resulting in the cleaners entering at 10am, which was quite unsettling. In conclusion, while the hotel boasts a prime location comparable to that of a 5-star establishment, the rooms themselves are more reminiscent of a 1970s 3-star hotel. With some updates and modernization, this hotel has the potential to be truly exceptional and command a much higher nightly rate. I would recommend this hotel to those who plan on spending most of their time at the beach, by the pool, or exploring the numerous historical and cultural sites in Messenia. However, for those seeking comfort and a luxurious experience, it may be best to look elsewhere.
