Kokkini Porta Rossa is one of our favorite hotels we've ever stayed at, and we've been to a lot!! Nikos and Angela are clearly so passionate about this hotel and the experience of their guests, and it makes for an absolutely exceptional experience.
First, the premises are spectacular. They have paid so much attention to detail, with the gorgeous rugs, artifacts, stonework, an airy, colorful, and tranquil back patio with beautiful landscaping.... it's just a beautiful, unique, luxurious place.
Then, the service and support for guests are exceptional. I already thought the app/tablet was a super helpful tool, but Nikos would also meet with us every day on top of that to walk us through plans, offer helpful suggestions, and chart out a custom route for us to see the best of Rhodes. We learned so much from him, and he quickly ascertained what we were most interested in and helped us plan our days accordingly. His enthusiasm for Rhodes is infectious. He also pointed us to so many off-the-beaten places that we never would have known about.
The food is also incredible! Angela would make us the most wonderful breakfasts, explaining the ingredients, the history behind the dish, etc. And she is just lovely in general, making a big effort to get to know us make us feel like we were a part of the family. Each night they leave out a full bar of drinks/snacks, plus a wonderful array of fruits, snacks, etc. in each room. It makes it feel so homey and welcoming!
