Porto Ligia Mini-hotel

We were looking for a hotel to relax in for three nights before chartering a boat from Lefkada for a week. It was exactly what we hoped it would be. The staff were friendly, the room simple but clean and had everything we needed, the pool was lovely and a short walk to some excellent tavernas. We'd definitely visit again.

As the title of this review implies this hotel was perfect for us. The location is beautiful, I could not believe that I was privileged enough to wake up the that view every morning. The rooms are basic but sufficient and are kept spotlessly clean. Clean towels every day and clean sheets every other day. The beds are comfy and there is enough space to store clothing. The breakfast is a cold buffet but with plenty of variety, lots of pastries, cakes, bread, cold meat, cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, Greek yoghurt and a big variety of fresh fruit. Endless tea coffee and fruit juice. It is also served between 8 and 11 which is a perfect window. Food served during the day is good but there is also a lovely bakery just across the road. The pool is perfect and easy to get in and out of if you have any mobility problems. There is always plenty of sun beds, especially on the grass but the comfy ones by the pool go quickly. The sea is lovely once you are in but very stony so need sea shoes. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance and bus stops outside to get you to Nidri or lefkarda. Staff are helpful and friendly. This is a quiet hotel in a quiet part of Lefkas which was perfect for us, we have loved or holiday and will definitely return.

We had a very enjoyable week's holiday in Lefkada in mid-July and this was enhanced by our stay at the Hotel Porto Ligia. The hotel is in an excellent location and always plenty of sunbeds available. The hotel is very clean and well maintained - yes the rooms are basic as previous reviews have highlighted but they were cleaned every day and had plenty of wardrobe/drawer space. We had a sea view from one of our rooms and I would recommend this as the views are as shown on the website and the morning sunrise is beautiful. The bar prices in the hotel are reasonable including the snacks available throughout the day. We would highly recommend the boat bbq trip from Nidri on the Ionian Star. It is also very easy to use the local buses (bus stop just outside the hotel). We visited Lefkada Town and Nidri and the journey is only 2 Euros per person. Would also recommend the coastal walk from the hotel (through the harbour) especially in the morning as so quiet and peaceful with beautiful views across to mainland Greece. Quite a few tavernas to choose from along the coastal path - we would recommend Taverna Etitanhea Seven Islands (blue painted chairs) - a good choice of menu with reasonable prices, good service and at the water's edge so a lovely location. A lovely island and a lovely hotel.

Lovely peaceful hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Very relaxed atmosphere. Lots of sunbeds wherever you want them. We sat mainly on the small beach watching the sail boats go by. You do need beach shoes to get into the water at the beach. The rooms are basic and dated but very clean and all that you need. Food from the bar is great value and enjoyable especially the Caesar salad. Hire a car to go to the West of the island for amazing beaches. The hotel helped arrange our hire car, nothing is too much trouble for them. Overall, the staff make this place what it is, we would like to return.

Hotel Porto Ligia is an excellent place to stay and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Small and friendly with a fantastic outlook each morning across the sea as the sun is rising. Very good breakfast which can be eaten outside and just a short walk each evening to the local restaurants. Lefkas is still traditional Greece which is the attraction for most guests. The owners ( Soto and Makis) are on hand at all times to resolve any issues and give advice. Special thanks also to Vaso,Marietta and Fotis who work tirelessly every day to make guests comfortable. Rooms are cleaned by mid-morning every day.

this is our fifth or sixth time here,it is a terrific hotel,the owners are fantastic,you could ask them anything,and they will find an answer to your question,the breakfast is very good, the bus stop is right outside the hotel,and you can get to many beautiful placesthe fare starts from two euros each way.Rooms are good but bring a kettle with you,sea view rooms are very good,looking out to sea from your balcony,is brilliant.Lotsof tavernas in walking distance,and they are very good.if you go in the sea you will need sea shoes,always lots of sunbeds,just relax and have a great time

I cannot fault this hotel. The location is beautiful, the staff are excellent, even to the point of assisting us with car hire. The breakfast is cold but they will make toast if you ask and the buffet items are all high quality. Best coffee I've had in Greece. Also the "snacks" available midday of the day are excellent. Rooms are standard Greek style hotel rooms. They are kept spotless by the cleaning team and toiletries are provided.

Staff is extremely friendly and polite, the place l, scenery, atmosphere, beach and facilities are just amazing! Greece is just magical and this place is fantastic. We went with our 6months old baby a few years ago and it’s one of our best memories. She was cherished by all staff, food abundant and healthy, nature fantastic! The place was so quiet I am scared of leaving a review! I don’t want it to get too popular and noisy! This is a lovely quiet retreat to enjoy with your family! Also, they have gorgeous plants throughout the hotel!

Lovely clean room with sea view. Good breakfast and snacks during the day till around 8 p.m. which are more like full meals. Quiet area with a few restaurants a short walk away, with more a bit further on. We loved it in fact already booked for June 2025. View to die for.

If you want a total chill out then this is the place to come, the hotel is clean and in a beautiful position right on the sea front the beach is rocky so beach shoes must be worn, the pool is perfect with a small kiddies pool attached , do be aware that a small low wall is the only barrier between the adults pool and the kiddies pool so children may cross the barrier easily and fall into the adults pool which is over five foot deep, adults supervision at all times is recommended, This is not really a suitable hotel for children as apart from the pool there are no facilities for kids , The rooms are pretty dated think 1970s/80s the shower is small with a shower curtain which could do with updating , beds are comfortable and the views are fabulous, theres a small fridge but no tea and coffee facilities so bring your own, staff are lovely and helpful, breakfast i must admit got a bit samey , typical continental but if you get fed up with bread ham cheese yoghurt fruit boiled eggs and cake then youve had it ! there are tavernas within a ten minute walk along the sea front but not many, and there is only one music bar, The Art bar, it is only a harbour village so dont expect plenty of life and bars ... its a small place , There is a main road that runs through the village so there is some road noise but its not too noticeable, Buses at end of drive 2euro ... All in all i would recommend for older residents not young and lively, it was totally relaxing , we hired a car which i would say is a definite necessity the island is beautiful and the west coast is fabulous but you need transport to see it at its best .
