This hotel is the prime example of a top class all inclusive getaway. The food is absolutely brilliant and constantly varied, you want for nothing and the drink includes all the soft drinks, lagers, and spirits. The entertainment team are very talented and this is the ideal family getaway catered especially for young children. A very good place to stay. Don't come here if you want to have a party, it's not that place. But i highly recommend.
Very nice hotel, friendly stuff, great food and wide selection
Perfect spot...
Nice location
Good hotel complex in Nea Potidea, about 45 minutes from Thessaloniky airport in Chalkidiky region. Hotel is divided into more buildings two main are located closer to the highway and other smaller pavillons are closer to the beach. Higher room number means that you are closer to beach/pool area. Very clean resort overall. Equipment in the rooms is older but rooms are clean and cleaned everyday. Towels on the beach upon deposit. Kayaks/canoe for free. Beach volleyball and table tennis available. Two pools, one for small children with fountains and slides, bigger with watter depth from 0.55m till 1.45m. Bar next to the pool with free local drinks (for all inclusive guests). Breakfast and dinner in main building, lunch next to the pool. Staff was nice and helpfull, speak english and german (maybe also other launguages). Resort is recommended for families with children.
A lovely hotel in a beautiful setting with a great atmosphere, lush gardens and clean pool areas. Lots of activities to choose from like water polo, boules, volleyball, mini golf and table tennis. Casual kids club with different daily activities and a superb splash pool. Staff are very friendly and hardworking. I can recommend the Blue Portes cocktails! The sea is only feet away from the pool area and is warm and inviting. Good variety of food for breakfast and dinner. Would love to return for longer than a week.
This place is great. Is suitable for families with kids. Great food and drinks and excellent desserts. Thank's Portes Beach for the pleasant staying.
Wonderful place, not crowded at all, good for families with children.
Exellent variety of food, fresh and tasty; luxuriant gardens, very clean and well kept domain.
Free sunbeds and umbrellas to the beach also on halfboard basis.
Nice atmosfere.
Easy acces from Thesaloniki.
This is a nice hotel, the staff are very helpful and friendly. We have a large room with a 5ft double and a single bed, the small bathroom is adequate but dated. It has a very powerful shower over a small bath with curtain.
The food is exellent, typically greek. Breakfast is served in the main restaurant and has an egg station cooked as you like, salads, cheeses, dried and fresh fruit, fresh bread and rolls of every description, yoghurt and a whole honeycomb dripping the honey into a bowl. There is a wide choise of cooked bacon, sausage, pastries and beans. Also any amount of biscuits and cakes.
Lunch is served in the taverna style self service restaurant overlooking the adults pool. Again the food is varied and exellent quality. Our only gripe is that smoking and vaping is permitted at the tables, which allows these drug-adicts to ruin your lunch.
Dinner is also served in the main restaurant and has a large selection of fabulous greek food.
The hotel is set in very pleasant well maintained gardens, the majority of the rooms are in two and three story blocks with paths leading down to the taverna, pool bar and swimming pools(one is a water park style paddling pool for the little children) and through a grassed area to the mainly sandy beach
The spa offers 15min free massage and discounts off futher massages that you book. I had a deep tissue 50min sports massage with Roxy and then booked 4 more. I've been to many countries including the far east and had massages there and I can say Roxy beats them all, she is. professionally trained, knows the names of your muscles and you come out felling a lot fitter than when you went in.
I was deeply commited to give this hotel 5* rating, however I chnged my mind based on 2 things. First is that this hotel is NOT ecologic nor ecofriendly. There are hundreds of plastic cups and bottles being used every day. And guess what. They do not recycle single one. Absolutly ridiculous. Furthermore, this hotel was capable of bringing food waste to completly new level, in a bad way.
The second thing is that manager of this hotel is like a ghost. I tried reaching him more than 6 times with no success. I belive that manager should be the person who cares about guests and wants to know how the hotel he works in does. But not here.
Now back to normal review:
The hotel is located on one side next to a busy road, but on the other right on beach. It is clean and cosy. The rooms were spacious and bright equipted with AC. Staff seemed really nice and friendly. Both the food and drinks were good. What was not so good was the WIFI connection in our room which was terribly slow. Overall, this is a OK hotel, fantastic for families kids, however a bit expensive and not very friendly to enviroment.
Very nice hotel - or I should better say complex of houses with apartments - it has very family atmosphere and you feel like you are in a village or so. Hotel is spread into several smaller houses which is great. Spent there 1 week in July 2017 with two small kids (2yr, 4yr). I would recommend this place to families and seniors. Especially for families with kids it is great because it has two pools for kids, playground. This is probably not place for couples as there is no nightlife. But if you want to relax, enjoy great food, nice beach - this is place you cannot go wrong. Beach is nice, with sand (great for kids), there is like 1m of stones but then again just and in the sea. You can walk or swim like 50-100m and you can still touch the ground under water with your feet. Kayaks for free - I fell in love with kayak there. Fantastic sport - they have for 1 or 2 persons - ideal to take your kids to enjoy clean water. Food was great, no complains there. Animators tried to make fun for kids and for adults in the evening. Kids disco after dinner and then program for visitors. Hotel is like 1hour of drive on highway from airport in Thessaloniki. Overall it is very nice place especially for families with kids. Free kayaks makes it even better (if you enjoy doing water sports).
