Hotel Porto Perissa

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.

Excellent hotel. 1minute walk to the beach. Breakfast simple but Ok, every one can find something for Him self. Hotel offera/port transfer for 30€, Taxi cost 40€. Owners- excellent, trickt You like family members. Excellent

Our family of 5 had a great time on Santorini. The hotel is right off the black sand beach and there are tons of shopping and restaurant options very close by. The hotel room we had was like a traditional “cave home” and had AC, a refrigerator, sleeping for 5 and a balcony that looked out to the sea. The mangers/employees are nice and accommodating. We would stay here again in the future.
