Sirenes Beach Resort
Beachfront family rooms with a pool bar in Mykali
About this hotel
Sirenes Beach Resort sits directly on the beach in Mykali, a quieter stretch than the harbor area of Samos Town itself, with the seasonal outdoor pool and pool bar giving families a second option when the sea gets busy. Rooms feature air-conditioning, walk-in showers and flat-screen TVs, family rooms and sofa beds making it practical for groups of four or more. The American-cuisine restaurant runs a buffet breakfast with a child-friendly section, simplifying meal planning across a stay with younger children in tow. Pythagoras Square, with its harbor-front cafes, anchors the town's waterfront a short walk from most hotels. Ferries to Piraeus and across the strait to Kusadasi, Turkey, leave from the main harbor nearby. The Archaeological Museum of Vathi holds finds from the ancient Heraion sanctuary a short walk from the centre. Vathy's horseshoe bay keeps fishing boats and ferries sharing the same stretch of water.

Our take
This suits families who want a genuine beachfront base a little apart from Samos Town's busier harbor streets, with both pool and sea options for younger children. The eighteen-minute walk to Psili Ammos Beach gives an easy change of scene without needing a car. Travellers who want to be within the town centre itself, close to the museum and ferry port, should consider Anthemis Hotel Apartments or SeaView City instead.
- ✓Use the child-friendly buffet section at breakfast, it simplifies mornings considerably with younger children, a small but useful detail worth keeping in mind.
- ✓Walk to Psili Ammos Beach at least once for a quieter alternative to the main beachfront
- ✓Book a sea-view balcony specifically, not every room in the resort catches the same outlook

Why guests love itWe based a family week at Sirenes Beach Resort and split most days between the beach right outside and the pool when the kids wanted calmer water. The walk to Psili Ammos Beach one afternoon made a nice change, quieter than the main stretch and worth the eighteen minutes each way with the children in tow. Watching the ferries come and go from the harbor became a small evening ritual. The Archaeological Museum made an easy stop on the one day we wanted a break from the water.
