Porto Bello Royal

Slightly feeling ripped off.. So the hotel is beautiful, huge and lots of amenities but ..we arrived last night, staff were lovely and Friendly we had booked a deluxe sea view room but found woke up to a million ants 🐜 crawling everywhere and the shower faulty Requested a room change and was offered a swim up room but we had to pay £300 ! It's left me feeling a little short changed and disappointed but the new room is lush ! On the plus side, the rooms are spacious Food is great quality and the staff friendly Just beware of room charges!

Beautiful hotel built into a sloping hillside which gives amazing views to the islands throughout the hotel & from a large percentage of the rooms. It's an interesting architectural design that utilises blocks of 2 storey apartments interspersed with 13 swimming pools. A large number of apartments have swim up pools. Even when busy the individual pools had a quiet atmosphere. The Mediterranean Restaurant & Italian Restaurant were pleasant changes from the main restaurant & other restaurants. The pool bar which was in an elevated position with views was a great place to drink. The room we were allocated had a lovely direct view to the islands. The interior had been recently renovated with a very stylish bathroom which had unusual taupe coloured tiles and a matching quartz bathroom counter.

This was our fourth visit but after a gap of five years we were not sure if we would still love thr hotel or if things may have changed vastly. We found it on all fronts to be even more wonderful and relaxing than ever; front of house staff are polite and friendly (special mention to Denisa and Simon), the rooms and all public areas and toilets are spotless and always smell fresh, the standard of food is very high (Burger Project is of such a high standard as is the Italian restaurant [having to pay for wine at the latter does however feel churlish in an all inclusive resort]) and the umpteen pools are absolutely pristine and a joy to relax in. It was so lovely too to see some old faces omongst the staff; the delightful Anna and Karina who work in the Greek beach restaurant and beach bar. Just one member of staff at the main bar was unwelcoming, dour and frankly looked disinterested and not engaged or remotely helpful.. his blond hair should let management know who i am talking about. And just one last point; only the newish pool bar in the 900 block serves dry Prosecco.. who wamts sweet Prosecco? I didn't even know it was produced!! We felt so relaxed during our week's stay and have already decided to return soon. Enjoy for there is so much to enjoy if you holiday at the Porto Bello Royal.

Porto Bello Royal was a great choice for our trip with friends. The hotel had a welcoming atmosphere, and the rooms were spacious and tidy. We loved the variety of food and the multiple pools to choose from. The beach access was a big plus, and the staff were always ready to help. It was a memorable stay, and we'd definitely go back.

A great spa treatment from Peter. Very professional and good massage with facial treatment. We did a couple massage and it was a really good time for two. I can only recommend it to anyone who needs some relaxation and togetherness. Next time again.

We had the Perfect Holiday at the Portobello royal 1st week in May . Over the Winter the hotel had been beautifully painted and all the tiles and paths had been deep cleaned and everywhere looked AMAZING. An awful lot of hard work had been done and it really showed .Our suite was as Perfect as always with views to die for . Our room was cleaned by Tanya ,same as last year she always makes the room sparkle and with a smile and always makes sure we never want for anything . The food was Fantastic as usual and I'm still trying to shed the extra kilos gained . We loved the Italian and The Burger Project with our lovely friend Panos great food and great service. Lunch time in The Greek restaurant down by the beach with our great friend Anna not to be missed . Breakfast with my bacon and eggs made by Terry followed with pancakes and choc sauce made by Claudi .Buffet food great on an evening g lots of choice and the lovely Maria . Entertainment very good and great drinks served by Vasilis . Missed Monika but The new Manager Christos is very friendly and always there to assist . All the staff are BRILLIANT . Hope to return next year
