Hotel Porto Perissa

The hotel is located about a 30 minute drive from the airport. The hotel provides a pick up and drop off service for 30 Euros. It is less than a minute's walk to the beach. There are multiple options for eating and drinking. The hotel is quaint and beautifully decorated. The family room we stayed in was the ideal size for 2 adults and 2 children. We had a private balcony to enjoy the view from in the evening. There is a good looking pool at the hotel. We didn't use it as we spent most of our time at the beach. The hotel is a family-run business and the service is excellent. The lady waited up late for our late check-in and they provided an early breakfast for our early check-out. We only had a few days here, but my wife, my children and myself all wish it could have been longer. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we will definitely return here if we get the chance.

Hotel is good, tour is not The hotel is quaint and vintage but pretty clean. We are a family of 5 with three small children ages 1,3, and 5 and we all fit confortably in the family room. My kids loved the wading pool which was small but perfect for their size. The one year old couldnt touch the bottom but my 3 and 5 year old could. The only reason this is not 5 stars is the tour. The front desk receptionist said my kids could do most of the tour except maybe the volcano. DO NOT BOOK THE HOTEL TOUR IF YOU HAVE SMALL CHILDREN. She was right about the 1.2km hike up a steep hill to the volcano. But she failed to mention you are expected to jump off the boat and swim to some hot springs in the ocean. They give you a pool noodle but unless you are a strong swimmer (and i dont know many small children who are) you shouldnt attempt this. If i really was going to do that with my kids i would need to put them on a raft and push them out to see it. They couldnt even get in bc theyre so young. The next stop is a small fishing villiage, also at the top of a very steep hill. Also not kid friendly. To top it off, we spent most of the day listening to Abba on a glass bottomed boat showing blue water but no fish or anything else. The tour guide couldnt be bothered to explain any local soghts or history-she was too busy chatting on her phone. We wasted 8 hours of our lives on this tour. When i got back to the hotel and told her what a flop it was and thatwe left early, she just shregged her shoulders.

Good place if you like to spend most of your time at the black sand beach. Inexpensive and decent. Bathroom is too small. Staff is very friend helpful. Black sand beach is literally 2 minute walk.
