Kymata

Our family stayed one night at the hotel. The hotel staff were very friendly and I think it is a family run business. The hotel was newly remodeled and very clean and comfortable. Flat screen TVs. We pre-paid for our dinner and our family all agreed it was one of the best authentic Greek meals we had during our week's vacation in Greece. The rooms facing the sea are right on top of it, the hotel is so close to the beach. The one draw back was the beach. It is a small area and rocky, not a sandy beach.

Kymata hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The hotel staff and manager were kind and nice to our young daughter, however there was a 'lost in translation' moment where it took us 3 separate conversations (in English and Greek) to have a baby crib brought to our room (even though we asked for one at the time of booking). That aside, the hotel is nice, but is currently undergoing construction updates (the parts that are done though are really nice). I'd assume they'll be completed by the end of the July or August 2014 at the latest. The hotel is literally feet from the beach, so you sleep listening to the gentle waves- obviously very relaxing and quiet area. We actually had dinner at the hotel, which was nice and the restaurant overlooks the Aegean sea. The included breakfast is brought to the table (not buffet-style) and was plentiful (it was too much for my wife and I to finish). The breakfast includes Mediterranean and international fare. Be aware though that the adjacent beach is a rock beach, and the hotel itself is not in downtown Platamonas, but can be reached by car (not easily walkable as it is on a narrow road with no sidewalk) in 5-10 minutes with a sand beach and wonderful dining options. My only regret is we only stayed 1 night; 2 nights would have been better, and once the construction is done the stay is definitely worth it.
