Vounária Hotel Guide - Beach Hotels in Vounária, Pylos-Nestoras

"I could write many paragraphs on the Romanos but I will stick to the highlights. It is a very good hotel - perhaps not quite exceptional, but very good in many areas. Combined with the Westin it is large - we went late October which was perhaps fractionally late for sunbathing (though it was about 25 degrees between 11-4 so good for lying by the pool or on the beach) - but perfect golfing temperature. The golf is excellent, the tennis set-up is disappointing despite the number of courts. Private lessons are absurdly expensive and they have not managed to create a 'Club' feel at the tennis by organising age group or ability clinics which are so important for kids to make new friends. The dining options are very good and the food is of a high standard (although quite a few restaurants were closed by late Oct which was disappointing). (although quite a few restaurants were closed by late Oct which was disappointing). Unless you rent a car it is pretty difficult to leave the resort and find much cheaper more local tavernas. The place is crazy expensive - €5 for one Karaoke song or €50 for an hour's padel is not going to encourage people to try it with their kids. The golf is crazy expensive but full anyhow and very well laid on across the 4 courses. The buggy system if you have U18s is tiresome - you have to have a buggy but cannot drive it if you are U18 so if 2 kids play you have to have 2 adults driving the buggies (and they charge you for the extra buggy that you do no "

"Beautiful hotel and breakfast buffet. Our only complaint is that we wish the pool wasn't shut down for the season. Travelers love a good pool!"

"Very clean and beautiful grounds and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. The sea views were amazing and the water was very clean. The only downside was the beach in front of the hotel is a bit stony and was difficult to get in and out of the water."

"The Westin Costa Navarino was the best hotel resort I have been to. "

"Rex Hotel was very nice. Located in a high traffic area, there were many options for food, drinks and recreation."

"The staff was very welcoming and helpful. The grounds were nice. Everything except the air conditioning in our room was nice. The air conditioning did not work properly and we complained about it daily and multiple times each day. They kept trying to fix it to no avail. Was disappointed with that and I think they should have offered us some comps or a percentage off the room. "

"The staff is very kind. Everyone at the front desk helped us with taxi services and finding places to eat or visit. The rooms and property was very clean. The food was excellent! We had a wonderful dinner there on the first night! "
