100 Rizes Seaside Resort- Small Luxury Hotels of the World

My stay at 100 Rizes Seaside Resort was nothing short of exceptional due its service/ staff. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and hospitality that truly elevated the experience. The staff were outstanding, gracious, accommodating, and always ready to help with a smile. A heartfelt shoutout to the incredible managers Fay and Thanos, whose presence and attentiveness made all the difference. The resort’s location is a dream—tucked into the rugged Mani landscape with its own private beach, offering a sense of serenity and seclusion.

I can hardly believe we have been back just over 4 weeks from 100 Rizes, it still feels like yesterday. I close my eyes and I am standing on our terrace outside our room, as the sun is rising, watching a fishing boat in the bay below. I feel a welcome warmth on my face and a breeze ripples the surface of our own pool ( a beautiful surprise). The air is filled with bird song coming from every tree and fragrant shrub that surrounds the suites of the hotel. This is my favourite time, savouring the sweet anticipation of another day in paradise. I delight in the thought of a solitary, early morning swim in the crystal, clear sea, followed by a scrumptious breakfast on the restaurant terrace overlooking the hotel pool and the azure sea, a few steps beyond the ancient olive trees. I might read a few chapters or even write some, I might doze on the comfortable loungers right by the sea and have Anastasis or Panos bring me a cooling drink. I won't think about the evening because I know I am going to eat beautiful food whether in the hotel or elsewhere. So at the start of this day, I am happy and content. There is a kind of magic in the air here, weaving a spell in and around you that I still feel here in England. The staff are part of that charm, all are exceptional and so incredible, professional, friendly and welcoming. They are lead by one of the best Hotel Manager's I have ever encountered - Fay. Her enthusiasm and hard work affects everyone around her. I did seriously think of not doing a review and keeping this exquisite little hotel my secret! I honestly can't wait to go again.

This is a very special place to get away from it all. Based on the reviews I believe they have made some changes for this season (including a lot of new staff). The food is exceptional, the breakfast is an over the top buffet with hot options, lots of traditional Greek options (omg the greek yogurt and fresh bread) and juice/coffee. Would highly recommend an iced latte or coffee Freddo. The dinner option at the restaurant is very nice. We ate here both nights and had the opportunity to meet the chef. Would highly recommend. We enjoyed a lot of special touches from the staff. Like other places in Greece, the service culture is to not bother you (which takes some getting used to if you are from North America) but don’t be afraid to ask for anything you need. The room was immaculate and the room cleaning during the stay was very good. They replaced our beach towels which was just a nice touch of attention to detail. The beach is beautiful with tons of seating and the water is calm and shallow. An upgrade to a room with a private pool is a nice luxury but not necessary as the public facilities are very nice. I know you are on vacation but wake up for a sunrise if you can, it was a highlight of our stay. You are about 20 minutes from 2 towns but definitely off the beaten path. This is a magical place, I hope to be back one day.

A little paradise for peaceful moments! The most relaxing resort, beautiful gardens full of olive trees! Professional and always smiley staff apart from being short-staffed. Awesome breakfast, needs improvement in order taking and dinner with loads of choices.

This hotel was absolutely lovely. Grounds were stunning. Staff were extremely welcoming and accommodating. Our room was clean, luxurious with beautiful views. The common areas were elegant with lovely gardens and ambiance. We can not wait to return.

The hotel was paradise on earth!! The staff and the service was impeccable 👌 Christos, Panos and Natali in the restaurant were very friendly and professional. The two girls in reception very helpful and knowledgeable. Maria in the Spa made us feel like king and queen with her bespoke treatments. The location is amazing and the hotel super quite, the perfect escape. The beach is sandy and shallow which makes it great for kids as well. We can't wait to come back!!!
