Livadia Beach

Severe health and hygiene issues - confirmed bedbugs. We experienced a severe hygiene issue during our stay at this property. Within the first 48 hours, my husband began developing severe bite marks. We notified the front desk immediately to request a deep clean and fresh bedding, but the issue was dismissed as local outdoor bug bites. Despite thoroughly checking the room initially and finding nothing, we later discovered a dead bedbug under the covers. We have photographic documentation of both the insect and the daily bite patterns. Other guests have noted similar experiences in past reviews. Travelers should exercise caution when booking this location.

We didn’t find it a dream but it wasn’t a nightmare either. The outside grounds, pool and beach area are lovely, water is crystal clear. It was the room that disappointed us. We stayed in a side sea view room, 102 to be precise. The room had such an old smell to it. Stayed for 7 nights and not once was our bed sheets changed, for a 5* hotel this should be a standard procedure after the 3rd night without having to ask. The duvet cover even came with a hole. 1 of the dressing gowns also had a big tear under the armpit and we had stains on towels on multiple occasions. The room door was annoying it required being near on slammed to get it to close. Room was right outside where the lorries collect the rubbish and this happened around 7am and was loud. Air con not the best either. Staff smiled and said good morning but no one ever went out of their way to ask how our stay was going and we walked past multiple times a day to get to our room. There was a really young guy that stood out the most, didn’t catch his name, he took our cases upon arrival then we saw him doing multiple different jobs, he seemed like a hard worker. Breakfast service came across as 5* and buffet had a good selection, we can’t comment on other food as we never ate in the hotel apart from breakfast. Overall the hotel isn’t bad but when you claim to be a 5* hotel you have to go above and beyond and we personally feel this wasn’t the case, but it has potential to be so much more with a bit of investment.

Excellent stay. Great free bfast buffet. Great swimming pool lots of food and drink choices and beach access chairs for a €10 food or drink purchase. Supermarket within walking distance. And ample parking and security. One hour drive to Pylos and Navarino. Really enjoyed this resort.
