Welcome to
Messini Beach Club, Analipsi
Messini Beach Club sits beside a huge stretch of golden sand that feels blissfully untouched, with more than enough room to claim your spot for the day. The warm, calm waters are made for water sports, but there’s absolutely no pressure to do anything more energetic than turning the page of your book.
Tucked away in the southern Peloponnese, one of Greece’s lesser-known corners, Messini has a fresh, contemporary feel and a wonderfully easy-going atmosphere. It’s the sort of place where days drift by in the best possible way.
Good energy
A little taste of Messini
From mornings on the tennis court to afternoons by the pool and sunset drinks by the beach, take a closer look at Messini Beach Club.
Holiday highlights
Make it an ace summer
With seven tennis courts and six pickleball courts, Messini is made for sun-soaked rallies, friendly competition and plenty of time on court. Join a social game, sharpen your skills with expert coaching, then swap match points for poolside drinks with the gang.

Idyllic beachfront setting
Set on peaceful Analipsi Beach in the Peloponnese, it's the kind of place where it’s easy to slow the pace. Think warm sunshine, calm sea views and a relaxed coastal setting that feels wonderfully tucked away from it all.

Your meals
Club board included
There’s a delicious spread of Mediterranean favourites waiting in the buffet restaurant, with relaxed outdoor dining spaces perfect for long, sunny meals.
Breakfast and lunch are included every day, along with four evening meals each week, leaving plenty of opportunities to head out and discover local tavernas too.
Mediterranean flavours
Good food, done right
Seasonal Mediterranean ingredients are at the heart of every meal, from relaxed breakfasts and sunshine-filled lunches to laid-back evening meals. Start the day with fresh fruit, flaky pastries and Greek yoghurt alongside cooked favourites and made-to-order classics. Later on, settle into fresh salads, grilled seafood, souvlaki and gyros, dishes made for slow evenings, second helpings and refuelling.
Poolside bites and drinks
Laid back evenings
On non-inclusive evenings, don't forget to join us for our BBQ night where our chefs will be cooking up a storm, enjoy Greek meze, slow-roasted lamb, chicken gyros, tuna steaks, and salads from the pool bar, or head out to one of a handful of local tavernas further along the beach.
Cheers to that
good drinks, good company
From your first morning coffee to sunset drinks by the sea, Messini Beach Club has every moment covered. Whether it's a refreshing beer after a day on the water or a perfectly mixed cocktail before dinner, there's always time to savour the flavours of Greece.

Family holidays made easy
Kids and family
The short transfer and spacious, flat layout, with plenty of wide-open paths and gardens, make Messini Beach Club an ideal choice for families. The beach is long and sandy, perfect for sandcastle building, and there's a children's pool, play area and even a giant chess board which children just love. We also have a selection of bikes for children from three to six years. These bikes are available to use in and around the Beach Club grounds, but cannot be taken outside of the Beach Club.

Kids' clubs
from four months to 17 years
There’s plenty to keep younger guests happy too, with activity-packed clubs for ages two to 17, plus the Starfish crèche for little ones aged four to 23 months (available for a supplement). From beach games and water sports to evening fun with new holiday friends, it’s the kind of holiday they’ll still be talking about on the flight home. We’d recommend pre-booking before you travel to secure a place in your chosen club.
If you’re travelling with babies or toddlers, things are made wonderfully easy with handy extras including cots, pushchairs and baby baths available on request. There’s also a 24-hour baby room for warming bottles, preparing feeds and late-night essentials, plus spacious family and interconnecting rooms to help everyone settle in comfortably.
Sleep easy
Accommodation
With the garden rooms, you get stylish bathrooms, sleek minimalist furnishings, wooden floors and cool, muted colours. Contemporary bathrooms in cool marble have large walk-in showers. A large picture window overlooking the bedroom is a quirky feature of the bathrooms; however, there is a handy blind to protect your modesty.
The ground-floor rooms have a lovely terrace with direct access to the lawns; those on the first floor have a balcony (premium rooms have two balconies). Garden room types include twin rooms, double or interconnecting rooms and 'premium' double rooms.
The hotel rooms are closest to the pool and restaurant. Light and airy, with modern design and bathrooms featuring walk-in showers (some also have baths). Balconies look over the pool, beach or the surrounding countryside. Hotel rooms include twin, double, and interconnecting rooms, as well as sea-view suites.
All rooms have air conditioning, a fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, a telephone, a TV, a safe, beach towels and a hairdryer. There's Wi-Fi in the public areas and most of the rooms.

Local area
Beyond the Beach Club
Step outside the Beach Club and you'll know you're in rural Greece as the immediate area is fairly sleepy. Steeped in history and tradition, there are many places to visit and discover, with lush verdant valleys, endless sandy beaches, hidden coves and sheltered bays as well as small rural villages set into the slopes of the Taygetus Mountains.

Ancient Messenia
Just 30 minutes from Messini lies the hidden archaeological site of Ancient Messini. Built into the foothills of Mount Ithomi, this fortified city protected the ancient Messenians for centuries. Parts of the original outer walls remain today, complete with lookout towers perched along the ridge. Follow the ruins through olive groves and orchards, or visit the museum to uncover more of ancient Greece’s history.
Stenosia River Trail
If you want to see the wild side of Messinia, this is for you. It's not just a hike – it’s a 7km jungle-style river adventure through Messinia’s wilder side. Just 30 mins from the Beach Club, you’ll trek through shaded canyons, lush greenery and secret waterfalls. Expect splashes, swims, and a lot of oohs and aahs. Top tip is to bring swimwear, a towel and something dry to change into – that's if you want to take a dip of course.
Kalamata
In contrast to Messini’s peaceful surroundings, nearby Kalamata brings a livelier change of pace. Backed by the dramatic Taygetus Mountains and lined with waterfront bars, tavernas and restaurants, the city buzzes day and night. Wander through the old town around the historic Kastro, browse local shops and cafés or catch an open-air performance at the 13th-century Castle of Isabeau.
