"The hotel is perfectly situated on a corner of the port opposite where the boats come in. The hotel is elevated above the sidewalk and the terrace overlooks the port. It’s tremendously situated. The staff is unbelievably helpful starting with the front desk receptionist who is so helpful. She goes above and beyond. The cleaning staff also serves as the cooking staff and they are also so nice and great. The gentleman Nikos who helps at breakfast is also wonderful. We absolutely loved our stay here. We would definitely recommend staying here and might come back ourselves."

"Poros is my favorite island in Greece. It is not crowded w/ tourists and the only ferries are smaller, fast cats that get you from Piraeus to Poros in about 1 hr and 10 minutes. New Aegli is about 1.3 miles from the port, so I just walk there. It provides a great escape form the busy crowds in Athens. The beach is right there, and the water is great for swimming. New Aegli has a good breakfast in the morning and great dinners at night. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I love this place"

"We had the absolute privilege of staying at Bellevalia Hydra, and it exceeded every expectation. The location is simply breathtaking, the rooms are beautifully designed, the views are spectacular, and the food is exceptional. What truly sets this hotel apart, however, is its incredible staff. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and every member of staff went above and beyond to make our stay genuinely unforgettable. It’s almost impossible to single people out because every single person was outstanding, but a special thank you must go to Anna, who went out of her way to make our stay extra special. Stephanous and his wonderful restaurant team, Sergio and Christos, delivered such incredible food and warm hospitality that we didn’t want to dine anywhere else on the island. Thank you also to Renata at reception, Anthony and Paulos at the bar, Alessio, who found us the perfect spot on the beach every day, and Jacob, our friendly water taxi guide, whose warm welcome always put a smile on our faces. Bellevalia Hydra is so much more than a beautiful hotel, it’s a place where genuine hospitality makes you feel completely at home. We leave with wonderful memories and can’t wait to return."
