The ground floor apartment has a courtyard and hotub. The suite was super clean. Both reception and cleaning staff were really helpful. There are shops and restaurants all within walking distance. The beach is about 30 mins walk away head to the port and walk right along the front. Would definitely book this property again

I was a quite disappointed I paid for a junior suite with a balcony and didn’t get that because for me it wasn’t what was shown to me when I booked. There was dogs barking late at night mostly which disturbed my sleep too. Staff overall were excellent and very friendly and helpful!

Heaven!

What an amazing place to stay. Beautiful suite with plenty of space, all the amenities you need and the jacuzzi is wonderful! Close to everywhere, lots of nice brunch places around and very good bus network to beach and airport too. Very warm and friendly at reception and happy to help with everything. They also provide a handy list of things to do, advice on places to eat and drink and we tried many and were all fab! :)

Amazing stay close to the port / highly recommend!

This was our favourite hotel during our two weeks in Greece! What a fabulous hotel with so many amenities and modern features. This hotel is especially friendly towards families with the large space and the bathroom is huge! What a lovely bonus to have two balconies… As well as a hostess, who is very responsive to our questions after hours. I would highly recommend anyone considering staying. Our family wished we could’ve spent more time at this hotel.

The property was lovely and modern with an all new suite! Great location only a 10 minute walk to town centre. However we did have trouble parking due to narrow roads and the offer of a park long lot from suites provided to us was again through narrow roads with a charge which was not ideal, so if you are driving, you can find parking down the main road of Lidl for free and around the area in wider streets

Porta Suites are situated a short walk away from the bustle of the town centre with local facilities such as shops and bars literally a couple of minutes away. For transport, buses and taxis are also nearby. The highlight for our five-night stay however was the suite itself which was new (2023), clean, modern and spacious. The balcony with sea view was large, and the hot tub was a great place to watch the sunset from. Reception staff were available, friendly and helpful, with good communication prior to our arrival. Overall, a fabulous place to stay and we highly recommend it.

Das Apartment sowie die gesamte Anlage waren sehr sauber. Alle Mitarbeiter sind super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Außer das es recht laut draußen war, weil gegenüber eine Rollerwerkstatt ist, gibt es keine negative Punkte. Die Werkstatt war nur tagsüber störend, wenn man auf dem Balkon saß. Sonst ist die Lage ganz gut. Es gibt zahlreiche Restaurants, Bars, Cafés und Einkaufsläden in der Nähe. Auch bis zum Flughafen sind es nur 15 Minuten mit dem Auto. Daher im Großen und Ganzen eine klare Empfehlung!
