We stayed in the large penthouse with magnificent view of the Acropolis. We enjoyed the spacious terrace with sun shades. Staff was very helpful with tips for dining and activities. Air conditioning worked perfectly on the hot days we were there! Note that the private elevator to the suite does open to a few stairs to actually access the room - no problem for us, but wanted to mention.

"The hotel is located right on the beach. It has clearly seen much better days and was probably the best hotel on this part of the coast about ten years ago. The staff are friendly, and the rooms are decent—but that's about it. However, our holiday in Porto Rio was a complete disappointment, and we ..."
