Potokaki Beachfront Hotel

Breakfast, much better than our expectations, service was perfect, rooms are enough comfortable. Our idea about the hotel complex, the building and annexes are in need of a refurbishment, e.g. door and window locks, keys, tents of the breakfast terrace etc.

Great convenient location as it is close to airport but also on beach and you can walk to Pythagoras village. Nice breakfast on beach. Super friendly staff. Nice room. We had modern room very spacious and comfortable.

We loved everything about our stay at Potokaki Beachfront Hotel. Our room was one of the budget rooms and its cleanliness made up for its age. The breakfast has all of the essentials (fresh pastries, yoghurt, fruits, cheese, cold cuts, cucumber, tomatoes, tea, coffee, juice etc.) The hotel's location is just perfect. We didn't rent a car as we wanted to chill by the beach all day, and the market across the street was a savior. Upon check in, they tell you that there is no food/beverage service after the breakfast hours and you can bring your own to the sitting area/beach. Most of our stay, we left the hotel for lunch but we always had an afternoon drink & snack by the beach. The hotel is an half an hour walk away from Pythagorion. The walk is very pleasant. There's only a small part without a sidewalk (near Almyra Restaurant) but it only lasts a minute or so. During our stay, one morning I fell from the stairs by accident and Judith brought me some ice. Every time we bumped into each other, she and Annerieke made sure that I was better and we joked about the whole situation. They both constantly had the biggest smile on their faces and definitely made our stay better. Thank you for everything!

The shower in the budget room was pretty small. It wasn't a big issue but keep it in mind if you're over 175 cm that it'll be hard to move around in it. The walls are pretty thin and we were situated in room 22, so there was a lot of noise in the morning just when the breakfast started and people were moving past the reception.

It was just a few steps to the water.

The beds were very uncomfortable and it still has the old door locks on the doors.

Being on the seaside is the most amazing part of the stay. The distance between your room and the sea is less than 20 m. Having your freedom in the hotel is also amazing. The hotel doesn’t impose you to get your supplies from them. You can get whatever you need from a close by market and spend your day in front of the hotel under the shades. Rooms are very clean, staff are friendly and helpful.

You should have a car to have the taste of the island. There aren’t many restaurants close to hotel. Breakfast is included but every day you have same things. Bathrooms in the rooms are very very small. The plugs are not enough in the room and places of them are not properly distributed.

Incredible staff and very friendly and helpful, beach and clear blue water right there!

Nothing negative

Location is great, super close to the airport yet it is a peaceful hotel. Right at the beach and the beach is actually one of the best we have been on the island. The staff is super friendly.

The mobile data reception is not great every day. For long stays it might be a problem.

Friendly staff especially Judith, cleaned room and an amazing breakfast.

The location was amazing, staff was very kind and thoughtful, and room comfortable and clean.

"I had one of my best vacations in Potokaki. First of all, it’s a calm, quiet, and impeccably clean hotel. The staff are friendly, helpful, and pleasant to chat with. Annerieke is a wonderful person who helped me with everything. I never expected to have a holiday in such a beautiful place for these prices. Words can't express how grateful I am. Whenever I need to relax, Potokaki Beachfront Hotel will be on my mind. Thank you!"

nothing special

Location was great! Right on the beach, lovely breakfast, friendly helpful staff especially Sandra and Judith who provided us with excellent recommendations for activities, beaches sites to see, rental car etc.

The WiFi was not accessible in our room, the dining area or common spaces. We could only get it to work from one reception area… Sometimes. The bar across the street was very gracious to let us go over there every evening to use the Wi-Fi to search activities for the next day, stay in touch with the family and complete necessary work.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room cleaning was perfect. Hotel location was great and close to a parking lot. Easy access to the beach.

The number of choices served during the breakfast could be a bit more.

The location was very good.

We stayed there for four days and they never changed the towels, they only picked up garbage.Breakfast had some dirty coffee mugs and it was the same every day. No variety of fresh fruit and no decaffeinated coffee or light milk. Lots of the cookies and fruit was uncovered with flies sitting on top of it.

First of all staff were great, very friendly, helpful. The location was very good, close to many places. Having its own beach facilities was great. The hotel and rooms very were clean. We will definitely stay here if we go to Samos again.

Location is great. It was quiet and having a beach in front of your place is very good. And it was close to port. Room was clean, staff was kind and sweet.

Wifi and shower. Our room was on 2nd floor and when you are having shower suddenly waterflow stops. You just wait till it comes back. And even if it flows it doesn’t have enough pressure. And you have almost no wifi except lobby.

Location and staff

There was too much wind that in the nights it makes a lot of noise

The view from the room was very nice. We used to sit on the balcony and enjoy the sea view especially in the afternoons. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

The Wi-Fi in the area where our room was located did not work. We could not connect to the internet at all. The staff told us that the problem was due to the nearby airport. I think that installing some additional routers in the building can solve the problem.

Amazing location. A 30 minute walk from the center, at a quiet spot right at the beach front. We had breakfast sitting directly at the sea every morning. View from balcony was also beautiful! Breakfast buffet was small but with diverse options.

Shower was really small and bed not super comfy.

The location was great and the beach was good. Staff is very friendly. Room was spacious and bright. Parking was fairly easy to find out front.

The breakfast was minimal with not many choices. Most days I just ate bread & water. NOISY! NOISY! NOISY! The doors on the rooms are interior doors for a house & don't block out noise. Every morning we were awakened early because of slamming doors or our maid knocking on our door. I'm on vacation...I sleep in past 9am so I was really miffed at this! No signs provided to keep the maid out on days we didn't need cleaned. Beds were a little hard and no blanket was provided only a sheet. We had ants in our room. Room safe was not bolted down so why use it when someone could just walk off with it? No place to store our valuables. They have lock boxes at the front desk but not convenient and those were also portable. WIFI did not work at all in our room on second floor. No beach towels provided so bring your own. Underwhelmed.

We stayed in the same junior suite in June. The room size, bathroom products, towels, and cleanliness are perfect. There are slippers, the air conditioning is quiet and works well. There is a mini fridge. Breakfast is sufficient, you can swim in front of the sea and take a shower. The staff is very attentive and friendly. You can shop at the market right behind. There is a cafe next door.

Internet access is weak on the front terrace and in the room we stayed in. We could hardly connect. WiFi should be strengthened. .
