Messonghi Beach Holiday Resort

Stayed here for a night, very busy hotel with just 2 receptionists checking in, resulting in a 30 min queue. Got the twin plus room, which was nice and clean. Breakfast sadly let the hotel down - nothing was cooked to order, meaning everything was presented buffet style. I arrived at 7:30 to Luke warm omelettes and cold sausages. Beach area is nice, and the walk along the beach to cafes and tavernas was a good option!

Hotel had lots of amenities, stunning beaches both sandy and pebbles. The water was clear with good visibility as full of life, great to snorkel. There was a range of water sports on offer. We stayed in Garden bungalow which was nice, it was survived with r own balcony and garden area. Having two bedrooms was great for the kids, well maintained. The hotel was deceptively large, five pools, water slides and multiple kiddie pools. There was an arcade area which we only found halfway through. This was good entertainment as we played family pool, air hockey, basketball etc. The hotel also has tennis, boules, basketball and actually a good gym which can be hard to find in a hotel. The outdoor area of the gym was particularly good with a a jig, and sled. The hotel had a full itinerary of fitness classes, children’s activities and put on an evening show most nights in an ami theatre. The hotel also has a night club which we didn’t try. But, the biggest thing for us as a family was the hotel looked after us. My family has multiple food allergies and they were able to cater for us. I found the staff would look really look after us, there was usually multiple dishes that my children cold eat, but the chefs would often make bespoke meals as well. One member of staff that stood out was Panagiotis Vlachos. He would take care of us like a father figure and would make sure we were ok at meal times and speak to the kitchen etc. Great customer service. The food overall was excellent, lots and lots of variety. Best dishes as you would expect were Greek and was very flavourful and tender. I found good customer service this replicated across the hotel and thought the staff work really hard. The negative parts are, there are ques for everything. Beach bars would often have ques which would put me off from ordering, cocktails were basic, ques would even form at meal times for certain dishes. Other holiday makers drove us nuts with obsession to put down towels on Sun loungers to pre book. You could struggle to find them in the morning but would become free during the afternoon. But, would still rate as excellent, for all the reasons I have listed above. Great facilities, attentive staff, would go again.

First time visiting this place with my friends and family. Place is amazing. Very nice hotel. Friendly staff and very helpful anytime. Lots of attractions for kids . Room was clean everyday . Always fresh towels. Cleaning ladies very nice welcoming you with a smile. Buffet in restaurant very well organize everyone will find something for themselves. From vegan and vegetarians to meat lovers. .
