Lovely staff and very easy to park. Good location and room size was very generous. It's super easy and safe to walk to Sami for dinner. Lots of options for breakfast and staff are very happy to help. The bathroom sink was abit small and lacked storage but other than that wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

nice hotel in a quiet beach area away from the port, although conveniently walkable along the seafront path. Please note I was upgraded to a room in the hotel rather than the room I booked so this is not a review of the basic garden room. This hotel did try to get credit card details from me "for security" despite having paid in full, in advance, but to their credit when I challenged it they did back down.

Not quite as good as we expected

We had one night here in preparation for a boa excursion on the following day. The room was ok but no tea or coffee provided despite there being a kettle and mugs. No water in fridge. The balcony was very small and the breakfast was disappointing with the lack of fresh fruit. Nice surroundings and reception were particularly helpful.

Relaxing seafront stay

Very enjoyable stay in the Garden Suite. We had a very relaxing stay, making good use of the pool, with the additional option of the sea at the front of the hotel. Service was very attentive from all the staff. Plenty of loungers available at all times. Well situated, a 20 minute stroll from the main restaurants in Sami, which was a lovely walk by the sea. Would definitely return.

A memorable and fantastic stay.

I cannot say enough good things about my stay here. Kefallonia has without doubt been the highlight of my trip and thats largely in part thanks to Spyros, Mary and the rest of the team who made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived in the hotel (and provided reassurance and support when I had stupidly left my phone and cards in the taxi that brought me there!) The room was comfy, the cleaniness excellent and the service overall was just top notch. It can be a bit of a challenge to sometimes get to other parts of the Island from Sami, but Spyros and his team were always on hand to ensure I was able to get to where I needed to be with minimal hassle. I certainly will be back again for sure!! Thank you so much for making this stay so memorable!

The staff and service at Sami Beach Hotel was above and beyond. Everyone goes out of their way to get to know you and you truly feel like you are a part of a family. The hotel has a great pool and has the option to be by the beach with service for food and drinks from the bar. The hotel is located near a few restaurants and just a short walk away is the town of Sami that offers more shops and restaurants to choose from.If you do not rent a car, the hotel operates their own taxi service that is very efficient and convenient. The staff is very hard working and really care about making sure you have a great experience during your stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone, and look forward to returning in the future.
