Beautiful location, astronomical prices, paper-thin connecting doors and a somewhat snobbish atmosphere.
The hotel benefits from a beautiful setting, great sea views, excellent food, and attentive service—but it falls well short of what its prices promise.
The biggest issue is the rooms. Despite requesting a quiet room, I was given one with a connecting door that was so poorly insulated I could clearly hear conversations, TV, and general noise from next door. Any sense of privacy was completely lost. At this price point, that is unacceptable.
If peace and quiet are important to you, i strongly recommend avoiding any room with a connecting door.
Pricing transparency is also lacking. Beyond room rates, virtually no prices for restaurants, bars, spa treatments, or cabanas are published online, and it is unclear whether service charges are included.
The hotel also appears to cater largely to families rather than couples or solo travellers, which is somewhat surprising given the lack of dedicated children’s facilities.
In short: a beautiful property with strong food and service, but significantly overpriced and let down by poor soundproofing and lack of transparency.

Dear Pinnochio10,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience in such detail. Feedback of this kind is genuinely valuable and we are grateful for your honesty.
We are sorry to hear that the room did not fully meet your expectations. A request for a quiet room is something we take seriously thus we thus allocated a Suite with only one neighbouring room - even though we cannot guarantee a sea view in our smaller categories, this suite provides one. However connecting room noise is not an experience any guest should have at The Danai. We will be reviewing the soundproofing of the rooms concerned.
What we would gently ask is why this was not raised with our team during your stay. We would have been delighted to act swiftly, whether by changing your room or finding another solution immediately.
On pricing transparency, our menus are not currently published online, and we would have been very happy to share our restaurant and spa menus with you in advance of your arrival had we known this was important to you. We note your comment on value and would respectfully say that our pricing reflects accurately.
Regarding our guest mix, The Danai warmly welcomes families, couples and solo travellers alike. We do offer a newly renovated Kids Club, even a baby crèche from six months, swimming lessons and daily activities for children up to twelve years of age. The families we welcome tend to enjoy spending time together as a priority, which naturally shapes the atmosphere. A quieter time of season would offer a rather different experience and we would love to welcome you then.
Your kind words about our cuisine and service mean a great deal to a team that works with genuine dedication every day. We hope sincerely to have the opportunity to restore your confidence in The Danai.
Warmest regards,
The Danai Team

A tranquil, authentic hotel with history and roots
My husband and I enjoyed a five night break here, after arriving exhausted from a busy and complicated house move.
The Danai retains the charm of a small family run hotel, as a leading hotel of the world this also equates to very high service levels - combined with some real Greek authenticity, and outstanding dining options, it was perfect for the kind of relaxation we were looking for.
It is nestled right next to the sea which offers some of the most beautiful views in the region, both during the day, at sunset for pre dinner drinks - and later for romantic starry nights it is gently lit for dinner under the pine trees, overlooking the sea bathed in moon light. The setting is just sublime. The chefs produce outstanding dishes, and we enjoyed our suppers so much, we decided to stay for dinner every night of our stay.
The location is just an hour to and from the airport, and the entire experience was seamless from London to the Danai. Incredibly civilised and comfortable, with the chauffeur taking excellent care of us too.
We absolutely adored the pool area, with the bird song, deep tranquility and reading our books quietly under the trees surrounded by mediterranean flowers. The shimmering pool, excellent pool service and the comfort of the bedrooms. The newly renovated spa and treatments really made for a truly restorative break in combination with a hotel that has history and a soul, and has been truly cared for over the years which is obvious in every small detail and refinement around the hotel. . Authentic family run hotels like this are becoming increasingly rare in a globalised, homogenised world, we will most definitely return.

Dear MPCotswolds,
We were deeply moved to read such a beautifully written account of your stay, and especially touched that The Danai offered you the restorative escape you were seeking after a demanding house move.
Your description captures precisely the atmosphere our team strives to cultivate, and we are delighted our chefs tempted you to stay for dinner each evening. It is equally wonderful to know that the seamless journey from London, and the care of your driver, set the right tone from the very first moment.
We are especially pleased that the pool area brought you such peace after the extensive renovation of the areal this year, 2026.
We send our warmest wishes from The Danai and thank you for taking the time to craft this review. We hope that you will have a beautiful summer settling into the new home back home!
Best regards,
The Danai Team

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!
My husband and I had the most magical and truly memorable stay at The Danai. Every aspect of the hotel is simply flawless, and the team made us feel so incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. We were completely blown away by the beauty of the hotel and its incredible views - it really is a slice of paradise!
Every meal we had was truly exceptional, the beach is absolutely stunning, and the rooms are beautifully designed and incredibly comfortable. Overall, I cannot recommend The Danai highly enough and very much hope to return one day!
