GMP Bouka Resort Hotel — Hotel in Municipality of Messini

We stay here 7 days with half board and we are pleased with all ! The personal at the reception is warm, smiling all the time and helpful. Our aircon did not work at the begining, they fixed it right away. The food is very good, tasty and fresh, I loved it, especialy the chocolate cakes and very good sweets each evening, congrats to the chef ! In the morning, near the 6 hot dishes and a lot of cold ones, unfortunately they haven't no salad or vegetables... Only at the dinner, there is a choice of 6 or more salads. The food was not repetitive, every time was at least one " home cocked " dish near the rosted or backed meat and pasta. They've given us each evening a 2 liters botle of water and the coffe was very good. Our room had see vue and was huge and clean. They change towels and sheets every day ( !!! ) The shampoo and the Shower Gel was nice too. On the beach there are so manny sun beds and umbrellas because greck locals people use to come here with their family. The outside pool is clean but too small for so many children... With all of this, it was nice to stay around on the comfortable sun beds. The place is remote and there is NO store arround, so you can't buy nothing there, but there is a little bus very close, near the church ( wich is allways closed) and you can go in Messini in 10 minutes to buy whatever you need to buy. And at the same bus stop in Messini, you can take another bus to go to Kalamata, in 20 minutes. We are very pleased with all at this hotel, I recommend it...

We booked this hotel as it had INDOOR and OUTDOOR pool plus by the beach.||When we got there we got told different stories by the staff! The outdoor pool was out of order due to being repaired as it had a problem. One of the staff said 10 days ago and the other one said 2 days ago! At least the staff should tell the same story! I then asked about the INDOOR pool to be told they DIDNT have one although it is on their own web site!!!! The room over looked the big bins so when you sat on the balcony you also got the smell! We had a kettle in the only but ONLY TEA NO COFFEE! When I asked about that they said they ONLY put TEA. Never have I stayed in a hotel which had only tea! We went for a walk down to the beach where they had beach chairs which were in bad condition and broke. Th beach was very dirty as well. Walking round the grounds we saw the fountain which was by the restaurant that looked like it never worked due to the colour of it. See in photo. The restaurant looked as dirty and not even working! At night after midnight we were woken up by a staff car revving up for 20 minutes then they drove away only by coming back later to do the same thing!||I just wished we had booked the hotel next door that looked clean and working plus much cheaper! We stayed in this hotel in May when all the other hotels were in full...

4 stars? Really? I don’t think so. |It’s a big hotel, with a nice pool area, and easy access to a marvelous sandybeach with many umbrellas and lounge chairs. So these public areas would deserve 4 stars. But not so our room which could hardly rise to a 3 star rating. Old, unattractive furniture, torn mosquito screen, dilapidated concrete around the terrace, and NO FUNCTIONAL WIFI OR PHONE signal. We had to go to the reception area and outside near the parking to read our email and make a phone call. The “sea view” was very disappointing: it’s very limited and it looks over an ugly covering of the restaurant below. There is a small refrigerator in the room, but before you open your wine or beer, take note that there are no glasses to drink from!! My husband had to go down to the reception at midnight to ask for a glass for a sip of water!|Also this place seems very popular with families, so be prepared for...
