Four-star escape overlooking the Messinian Gulf
Soaring high into the sky and situated directly opposite the Gulf of Messina, the four-star Pharae Palace is famous for its spectacular panoramic sea views. It’s just a 20-minute stroll from the town centre, too, and a mere five minutes from the beach.
You get the best views, of course, at the hotel’s rooftop restaurant on the 5th floor. Expect a freshly prepared breakfast buffet, crammed with hot and cold options, then follow with lunch and dinner at the hotel’s brand-new Loft Lounge Restaurant. There’s also a tastefully modern bar area and, just a short walk away, is the hotel’s stylish street bar. A swanky place where you can enjoy a coffee and cocktail accompanied by a light snack
Ready to start exploring Kalamata? Pharae Palace has a bike-hire service so you can discover all the sights on two wheels. And there are plenty of sights to see – including the ancient castle looming high on an outcrop just behind the city, a handful of museums, and the bustling town square with its variety of restaurants, bars, and shops.
