Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Sami cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Sami vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Sami is best to stay in for beaches?
For travellers seeking the best beaches in Sami, the best area to stay is along Antisamos Beach, or in the main town of Sami for convenient access to several excellent coastal spots.

Antisamos Beach is just a short drive from Sami town, typically around 10-15 minutes. It's a well-organised pebble beach with clear turquoise waters, surrounded by lush green hills. You'll find a few beach clubs here offering sun loungers, umbrellas, and places to eat and drink. It's a great spot for couples looking for a picturesque beach experience with amenities close at hand.

Alternatively, staying in Sami town itself offers easy access to Antisamos and other nearby beaches. Sami has a pleasant harbourfront with a good selection of tavernas and cafes. From Sami, you can easily drive to Antisamos, or head north to quieter spots like Karavomylos Beach, which is known for its serene freshwater lake and shady trees, superb for a relaxing afternoon.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Sami?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Sami is during July and August. These are the warmest months, with average temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C, making it great for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying the Mediterranean Sea.

During this peak season, the beaches are bustling with activity, and all water sports facilities are fully operational. Families and couples will find this an ideal time for a classic beach holiday, with plenty of opportunities for boat trips to nearby coves or simply relaxing by the hotel pool. It's also when all beachfront restaurants and tavernas are in full swing, offering fresh local cuisine.

As another option, June presents a wonderful alternative. The weather is still beautifully warm, with temperatures generally between 22°C and 27°C, which is excellent for all beach activities. You may find better value for beachfront accommodations and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular restaurants.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Sami with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Sami beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
What beach activities should we do in Sami?
The best area to stay in Sami is along the main waterfront promenade, which offers convenient access to the town's facilities and a good starting point for exploring the Ionian Islands.

This central area of Sami is where you'll find most of the town's restaurants, cafes, and shops. The promenade itself is a pleasant place for an evening stroll, with views of the harbour and the surrounding hills. It's also where you can easily find local travel agents and boat hire services.

For couples looking for a relaxing and convenient base, staying near the promenade is ideal. You'll be within easy walking distance of quality dining options for romantic evenings and can readily arrange excursions to nearby attractions like Melissani Cave or Antisamos Beach.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Sami as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Sami for you.
