Sami Beach was excellent. Quite a long drive from the airport but well worth it. The views from the hotel both out to sea and inland over the forests and mountain are wonderful. The hotel was very welcoming and friendly. Sami is the best town on this lovely island. Quiet out of season but lots to see and do, and great food.

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.

Great hotel in an excellent location. The beach is right in the front of the hotel, comfortable walking distance to Sami town centre. The staff are very helpful and professional, especially Caroline, thank you so much for your helpful advice & tips 😀

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.

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.

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!

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.

Et nydelig hotell med varm, vennlig og positiv atmosfære, rett ved stranda og 10-15 minutters gåtur fra byen Sami. Meget vennlig og hjelpsom personal som får deg til å føle deg virkelig velkommen. Vil tilbake dit neste år!
