"Arrived at the Convivial on 8/29/2024. A sign said to call a cell phone, no one around. Not a good start for a place named "convivial". Someone came down and showed us a room with stained carpets, stained curtains, stained towels, dark bathroom that wasn't clean. Carpeted stairs had stains. The carpets everywhere looked worn and not vacuumed. The doors to the rooms were plain wooden doors you might have in your house. One of them had a crack in it that you could see light come through. Not secure at all. The lobby was dark and the couch had a dark stain, as if someone had wiped greasy hands on it. No "luxury" here. There is a courtyard with a small pool that had not been cleaned for a long time. The walls below water were dirty. There were debris floating on the water and there was no filtration pump going. There were droppings on the pavement and the few tables/chairs were covered with dust. Not "spa" like either. The receptionist showed us three rooms and they were all in similar conditions. We spoke with the owner and they refused to refund our money. They offered to clean the room. I was disgusted and wouldn't sleep there even at no charge. I had to find another place to stay. I complained to Expedia. They tried to get in touch with the owner. The owner didn't answer the calls, Expedia did not approve a refund. This is the cancellation policy of 24 hours prior, but it seems there is no protection against false advertising. This place has been neglected for some time."

"Beautiful family business. Small but very clean room with great shower. The view from our balcony was outstanding. Breakfast on the rooftop was delicious. "

"The place is brand new. Very well maintained. Great service. Highly friendly staff. Tasty breakfast. Good dining options. Amazing pool. There are not too many attractions close by. Perfect place just to relax or to spend a day in between Patras and Athens or south Peloponnese. Highly recommended!"

"Beautiful room- quiet"

"Great stay"

"Lovely resort but limited restaurants, shops closed or not open for long. Also trading hours of pools and bars and swimming pools need to be longer ! "

"Close to the sea. Helpful staff. "

"This property is RIGHT ON THE WATER. There is NO road to cross to get to the beach. The water actually touches the hotel and it is amazing! There are very few hotels in Greece that are on the water and many use deceptive marketing to make you think they are on the beach. Our room was so clean. The ceilings are very high and the rooms are modern with lovely furniture. The view of the sea from every dining area was stunning. The swimming in the ocean was fantastic and there are little hermit crabs you can pick up and show the kids. The beach is rocky so wear water shoes. Whomever designed this hotel thought of it all. The deck with sun chairs hugs the edge of the hotel and tapers down onto a little beach, so there are sun chair areas that are covered, in case of rain. The staff was lovely. The breakfast was very nice with eggs cooked in every style. There is a lovely restaurant on the premises. For lunch and dinner and you can order while at the beach. You can even take a walk down the promenade towards town and it is safe. We walked with the kids down to a park. I’ve been almost everywhere in Greece, islands and mainland Greece and this was my favorite hotel. Will stay again! "

"Our room was very nice with two bathrooms and nice balcony. The door closing was very loud."
