We are still enjoying our stay at Meliton Hotel, and everything has been excellent so far. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and very comfortable, with excellent mattresses that guarantee a great night’s sleep
The food is delicios, with a wide variety of delicious options every day. The hotel also has beautiful saltwater swimming pools, perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach or exploring the resort
Although the hotel welcomes many guests, it never feels overcrowded. There are five elevators, so you rarely have to wait.
For recreation, there is a bowling alley, and for those who like to stay active, the gym is well equipped and offers an excellent view while you work out or run on the treadmill.
The beach is a short walk from the hotel. While it isn’t directly next to the building, the walk is pleasant and doesn’t bother us at all. There is also plenty of convenient parking for guests.
Overall, it’s a fantastic place for a relaxing holiday, offering comfort, excellent facilities, great food, and a peaceful atmosphere. We would definitely recommend it.

First of all, this property doesn’t meat true 5 star standards. Whoever did their photos - congratulations!! They don’t lie but are polished to make you believe hotel is new and luxurious.
Hotel is huge, with almost 500 rooms but only 3 elevators. During peak season using elevator is game of patience. We walked most of the times.
The most important thing you should know, and we didn’t, is that if you book any suite - you have access to separate restaurant and beach (attached photo). Otherwise you are forced to use the main restaurant where you can have hundreds of people at same time. You will wait in line to enter and to get the food. We Visited in July and went for breakfast around 8-8:15 when there’s much less people and skipped the dinner. There’s plenty of food choice (cudos for that) but not many healthy options - not a 5* level.
Rooms have nice views no matter which side you chose, though the pool side has sunset which is incredible! Beds are huge and comfortable, that we really enjoyed. Our bathtub had serious leak that couldnt be fixed (hotel sent plumber immediately but the only thing to make it better was to use plenty of towels).
There’s something wrong with their AC sistem as the coridors had horrible odor all the time.
The good sides - the nature is beautiful, so much green, and natural shadow on the beach. Water is great, pool is huge and well maintained. Reception and concierge service is friendly and ready to help. Marina is old but charming.
This is old giant hotel which must have been a miracle at its prime time. The value for money is ok, but if you are coming you must be prepared that it is not a 5 star hotel because 5* is not about facilities you have on paper but also its quality, service, hospitality and overall feeling that your holiday means no stress.
The only thing worth of coming for is golf course and padel/tennis courts. Avoid the stables though.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our all inclusive stay at Porto Carras in Halkidiki was a major disappointment.
This was, by far, the weakest all inclusive experience we’ve had, both in Greece and elsewhere in Europe.
Some of the main issues:
• The all inclusive snack service only operated from 12:00 to 13:00 and 16:00 to 18:00.
• During those hours the choices were extremely limited, usually just small slices of pizza, cheese pie, or spinach pie.
• No complimentary ice cream for children, no slushies, no portion of fries, and many basic items expected at an all inclusive resort were only available at an extra charge.
• Paid food and drinks were priced the same as for walk in customers, making the all inclusive package feel like poor value.
• The rooms, and much of the hotel, felt dated and in need of refurbishment.
• There were incorrect food labels in the main buffet restaurant, which is concerning for guests with dietary requirements or allergies.
• We were given three “complimentary” visits to the à la carte restaurants, but all inclusive guests received a heavily restricted menu, probably around 10% of the options available to paying customers.
• At the flagship restaurant there were only three meat choices, one of which (liver) was unavailable that day, and even something as basic as fries was not included.
Overall, it felt like all inclusive guests were treated as second class customers. Compared with other all inclusive resorts we have visited in Greece and across Europe, this was nowhere near the standard expected from a 5 star hotel.
The one genuinely positive aspect was the Kids Club. The staff were excellent, it operated daily from 10:00 to 13:00 and 15:00 to 18:00 (except Thursdays), and our child really enjoyed it.
For that reason alone, I have given the hotel 3 out of 5 stars.
If you are specifically looking for a quality all inclusive holiday or a genuine 5 star experience, I would not recommend Porto Carras. Date of the experience 21/7/2026-28/7/2026

The hotel is beautifully maintained, with spotless rooms and impeccably clean facilities. The staff were exceptionally kind, professional, and always willing to help. The facilities are outstanding, but the true highlight is the hotel’s breathtaking location. Set in a stunning natural landscape with a crystal-clear, beautiful beach just steps away, it offers the perfect setting for a relaxing and unforgettable holiday. We highly recommend it and look forward to returning.

I booked this vacation after having stayed for a conference last September. Turns out that it was one of the best vacation we had as a family so far. The beach is one of the best you will find in Greece. the hotel is great, it's very beautiful and especially clean. The suites have their own reserved area with big sunbeds. The suites also have their own restaurant for breakfast and dinner, so we were lucky to enjoy this food quietly and easily. The marina is a must visit, many bars and restaurants to choose from. We had our bikes with us and had nice rides inside the resort.
