Lovely place, shame about the bathrooms!

31 Jul 2024
The Ionian Emerald Resort hotel is situated in a very pretty part of the coastline with beautiful views. There is a lovely pool, pool bar which serves snacks at lunchtime, and the breakfast area is good with excellent breakfasts. I love swimming in the sea, and was very pleased with the private beach, small but always quiet. Pebbly, but the sea is lovely. The service in the hotel is superb. We asked to move rooms after the first night because the shower over the bath was difficult to use. We were moved without any problem to a room with shower. Unfortunately the air conditioning failed later in the week, and we had to move again for 1 night. This room had a bathroom with a frosted glass partition instead of a wall. I did not like that! The whole bedroom is illuminated at night if someone needs to go! All the bathrooms seem to have frosted glass doors. Why?? Otherwise, the hotel is pretty good and I would go back as long as I could have a decent bathroom! The location is good too. A 15 minute walk into Sami. Loads of lovely tavernas. Everyone is extremely helpful and the service always excellent. Food and wine great!

Beautiful hotel in a quiet location but short walk along the beach from the small pretty port of Sami where there is plenty of tavernas. Lovely pool which can get noisy but there are also sun-beds on the beach where it is quieter. Staff are all very attentive and nothing is too much trouble. Only disappointed was the lighting in the bathroom which is quite dark and leaking shower which if your not careful floods. Wouldn’t say it’s 5 star but it has the potential.

We really enjoyed our time at the Ionian Emerald resort so much so we didn't want to leave!! 😀 It was very tranquil and a lovely walk into Sami of an evening. Only criticism would be the shower as it needs updating. Many thanks to all the staff as always very friendly and helpful
