Porto Galini Seaside Resort & Spa

Schrecklicher Geruch von m ... Wir kamen an und sie zeigten uns 2 Zimmer, beide mit schrecklichem Geruch von m ... Sie wiesen darauf hin und wechselten sofort die Zimmer, die im Moment in Ordnung zu sein schienen, anstatt dass der Gestank dann tatsächlich auch in den engen Gassen anhielt des Resorts Außerdem ist die MATRATZE nicht vorhanden es gibt eine Bettdecke siehe Fotos die Zimmer sind klein und sehr billig Pommes die 5 Sterne wissen nicht was sie für mich sind 3 Sterne der Manager obwohl wir ihn bei der Ankunft und auf dem gesucht haben am abreisetag wollte er nie mit uns reden wir haben ihm auch ein blatt mit den beschwerden hinterlassen aber er hat uns nie gesucht!! Viele TREPPEN und der Aufzug fährt nur zum Spa (ps um 18.30 Uhr war es geschlossen, denn wenn sie eine Massage haben, schließen sie es und Sie können es nicht betreten!) Viele KINDER und keine Schallisolierung sowohl abends als auch abends Morgen herrscht immer Chaos!!

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

Porto Galini is huge, has absolutely no sign of the famous Greek hospitality and kindness, has a lot of steps and a great view from the sea and a very nice private beach (stones not sand). But it is not a five-star hotel. Period. We were given a room with a small bed, a tiny bathroom, two rooms in two floors and at least 35 steps from the bedroom to the balcony. Not nice at all. A room chemically cleaned from anything cozy and so unfriendly that we did not want to be there. I went to the reception to complain over the room and ask for another. I was met with an indifference and rudeness that I have not experienced anywhere in the world before. The staff even talked back at me. That is not only rude but also shocking as you have paid 3000 euro for a week there. It really ruined the vacation and we did everything we could to be away from the hotel – which is not easy and requires a bus or a car as walking means jumping for your life on the main road passing the hotel, not to mention the rubbish thrown along the road in appalling quantities. So, if you are given room 73, I will recommend you to make a scene, denying to accept the room and wait in the reception until you a given another. After five days we got another room (waiting 1.5 hour from the time we should have changed room, which was postponing our tour in a rented car, that was absolutely great). But we only had it for two days. On the positive side the housekeeping and the staff in the breakfast cafeteria is very professional, nice and friendly. On the beach you can call for service that will bring you drinks and snacks. Now, some people will appreciate this as a luxury. The mainly Italian or East European guests seemed to do so. I would any day change the beach staff for professional and welcoming people at the reception. But no worries, we will not be coming back.

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! :)

A family of 5, we stayed for a couple nights to decompress before travelling across Lefkada and Kefalonia. So it was all about the services and I have to say the buffet breakfasts and private beach were particular highlights. In fact, the beach set up is probably one of the best we’ve experienced. We chose to eat locally in Nikiana (a short drive away) which has a lovely little quayside with a choice tavernas / grills. Views of Aktio-Vonitsa from the hotel are sensational.
