Porto Galini Seaside Resort & Spa

Exceptional hotel located in between Nydri (6 mins car drive) and Nikiana. Truly spectacular views from on high over the ocean to the mountains. Great pools lots of beds available. Food exceptional. Service outstanding especially the wonderful Evmorphia....a really lovely and helpful young lady with a fabulous happy personality. Be prepared for climbing a lot of steps and steep inclines. But worth it for the view. Reasonable gym again overlooking the sea. Will return.

The good things: nice breakfast, big clean pools and lots of sunbeds. Bed was so good and the pillows. Pool bar served affordable big salads. Private beach is clean and okay for snorkeling. Staff is really nice. Keep in mind that in this side of the island you won't see sunset but sunrise. We walked to Nidri 55min, okay easy road by the mountain. Some dogs barking but they stay at the houses. You have to go the street besides "Jimmy's house". Dont walk the high way, its dangerous especially in the late evening. But the things that bothered me a lot: bathroom is bad. There's not enough ventilation so it's moist all the time and the floor is wet from moist that comes down at the night. We have to keep doors open but when the air becomes cooler at the evening so the moisture will be there after a shower and it's so annoying!! Also a hairdryer from the 90's? It doesn't dry and overheats in the hand. We had also a big water leak from the fridge on first day but personal wasn't that interested of drying. A cleaner came after I asked twice but I had to dry the spot after her anyway. We paid for superior room but this doesn't just feel like it at all. Regretting that we didn't book just average room.. maybe we would got a better view even. And this room is "shared" one, a door separating it from someone elses. Also a small detail why I feel like this is seriously not a superior room just because we have a couch and slightly bigger room... Not the best hotel, not worth the five stars, but it was enough for me to keep me happy and relaxed. I came for the private beach. 7/10

Very nice resort with amazing private beach, the hotel was full capacity but it never felt too busy we could always find place by the beach. We stayed in a superior suite family of 4 which was very comfortable. Rooms were clean and been serviced everyday. Couple of points that could be better for mgt. to consider More coffee machines or faster ones during breakfast as it was taking forever with long queues every morning we stayed for a week and it was a same everyday. Other recommendations will be get some new hair dryers please the ones in the rooms are from the 90’s and didn’t work all the time and when worked it was taking forever to dry. (3 girls in family) it was taking like 45 mins. Over all very nice experience

A fabulous experience.. - beautiful hotel with its own beach where you can paddle board, kayak, always get a sun lounger even in august! - 5 clean stunning pools which never felt busy - the best boat trip with Nikos from the hotel jetty who took us all around Meganissi and some top snorkelling stops, he is great fun and kept the lefkas wine flowing! - fantastic breakfasts with the most smiley lady squeezing fresh orange juice non stop, great start to the day - incredible sushi, Greek and fish nights .. no queues just great service and entertainment. - ordering wine and hot dogs to the room, keeping children happy, Timos was always on hand to help great chap! - the best kids club.. children went anytime between 10-6 .. non stop crafts and painting lovely staff - Elena at the bar served us some top cocktails and was so helpful and professional Overall, one of the best hotels we have been to, Felt so relaxed after six nights there with our 4 and 7 year old and would love to return! :)

Very disappointed, we only had 2 nights there, our shower head was broken, the fridge wasn’t cold even though we put it on cold, and the reception was very rude, will not be coming back also the cocktails were very weak, we also waited to be served for one hours at the beach chairs

I'll start with the good things: The resort is stunning, well-kept, full of vegetation and flowers, everything is taken care of with attention. The hotel area is clean and beautiful. The private beach is one of the most beautiful I've seen, tiny stones (no need for special shoes), quiet, clear water, you can see the fish. You can take as many sap boards and kayaks from the lifeguard (free) as you want, there is a waiter on the beach from 11 am to 6 pm and there is a nice menu of food, drinks and alcohol. The pools are also clean and pleasant, we were mostly at the beach. There is no music on the beach or at the pool, so a pleasant silence, and a relaxed atmosphere. The breakfast is great, you can arrive between 7.30 and 11am and it is very convenient for both early risers and late sleepers. Lots of choice and we all enjoyed ourselves. The staff is all nice, alert, available and patient. We took a 2-room suite, which was large, spacious and bright. A very comfortable double bed, towels are changed when requested, large beach towels, kettle, coffee and tea. A huge balcony overlooking the sea. Now for the bad sides: In the suite - 2 sinks, in one the flow of water is too weak and quite impossible, in the second one there is a strong flow, but the sink immediately clogs. In the bath - a stream of water that is sometimes hot and sometimes cold, and you can't do anything with it. Just got cold water and then hot water throughout the shower. Imagine children showering like this. When we contacted reception about the issue, they sent a technician, who said it was fine and he didn't see a problem, and only after I asked him to check the current for a minute, not a few seconds, did he replace the faucet itself. Admittedly, the faucet was much more comfortable, but of course it didn't solve the problem and all our showers were while we were alert. The air conditioner - it didn't cool enough, it doesn't manage to cool the room when it's very hot outside. Pleasant in the evening, but not cold enough during the day. We contacted reception about this as well, they sent a technician who worked for a long time in the room, and the problem was not solved. We were left with puddles on the floor and I had to ask the receptionist for a maid to come and clean. The air conditioners are outdated, low down close to the floor, and not well function. In the bedroom - only one Electrical outlet!!! I connected the kettle to it and that's it. You have to bend down between the wall and the table, move the table to reach it, and connect the kettle. I left it like that, because it is impossible to go through this whole story every time just to switch between appliances. That's why all phone charging, etc. had to be done in the central room, where there were more sockets. A big disadvantage - it is not possible to darken the room. The curtains are not color block and in the morning when the sun rises, the whole room is bathed in light. We asked for a solution for this, but
