Excellent accommodation in a beautifully clean complex. Rooms cleaned to an immaculate standard: clean bedding and towels every day. Breakfast is simple but fresh local produce. Swimming pool is perfect. A quiet time is observed between 14.30 - 17.30 though you can still swim. We found most families headed for the beach and returned early evening for a sunset swim. Perfect. The staff are amazing- the cleaners clean everything including shutters, windows, everything! Special mention to Alex as nothing is too much trouble and also to Chrissy who is so friendly and helpful. To summarise this place is perfect.

Very spacious studios, enormous comfortable bed, great views of the sea and town. We were at the top and the only ones with a balcony on both sides by luck. Vast choice at breakfast. Friendly helpful staff. Lovely pool, very rarely used by anyone. Definitely the best hotel in town!

A Southern Peloponnesian Oasis
In all of our travels we have rarely encountered an accommodation as nice as this one. While not a large property, it meets or rivals much larger Greek accommodations when it comes to management, decor, cleanliness, beauty and can-do, positive attitude of its staff. There is really not enough that is positive that we can say about the Viva Mare. They’ve been attentive to every detail when it come to decor – rivaling places in legendary places like Mykonos and Santorini. Their pool is beautiful and there’s an enchanting beach right below the hotel. The landscaping is impeccable and simply must be seen for its attentiveness to detail. Perhaps the only area where Viva Mare needs improvement is expanding its parking, though we had no problem in parking our car. The breakfast room is enchanting and pleasant and the choice of breakfast fare should satisfy any and all comers. We plan to return to the area for the simple reason that, this time, we wish to reserve an entire week to relax amidst the charms of this place. Would that all Hellenic hotelier emulated the owners and staff of this little oasis in the Southern Peloponnesos.

A Hidden Gem
This place is a gem. We had been travelling for Europe for 2 months and this was without a doubt the best place we had stayed in. The rooms were spacious and clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff were fantastic and the included breakfast was awesome. The pool was great. It was a short walk to the main shopping/dining area and the beach. We wanted an authentic Greek experience and we weren't disappointed. The streets come alive at night. What an awesome experience we had in this town. We wished we had stayed longer but at this moment we are planning a return visit. I would thoroughly recommend this place!

Fabulous Hotel Close to Beach
We stayed in a lovely, spacious family apartment which comfortably accommodated 5 people. The hotel is of a very high standard, in fact one of the nicest ones we've stayed in Greece. Very clean with fresh towels every day and bedlinen every other day. Free air conditioning which works very well. Excellent pool area with bar. Five minute walk to beaches and tavernas. Lovely, friendly staff for whom nothing was too much trouble.
