Adrina Beach Hotel

The location was amazing, especailly the arrival by taxi boat directly to the hotel was a great experience (if you chose the water taxi service, try joining other hosts as the price reduces significantly). The rooms were good (main hotel not spa) and all the staff very polite, especially the pool bar staff were absolutely brilliant. The man helping carry our lugage from the boat was very nice and polite and the cleaning ladies werea l lovely, as were the reception staff. The breakfast was good with wide variety but we had to keep asking for things to be refilled. The only negative was that they were very stringent with the times for breakfast, the doors were shut at 11:00 sharp even if speople were coming and food was left over. Beds very comfy, ipllowes very hard but quickly resolved whern asked. All in all, def recommend.

I had been looking forward to staying at Adrina for a long time—visiting Skopelos every year, it was always on my list. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations, and I ended up leaving after just two days, despite having booked for five. It became clear very quickly that this hotel caters overwhelmingly to male guests. As a solo female traveler, I felt consistently overlooked and dismissed by staff. The bias was obvious from the very first moment. During check-in—a guest’s first point of contact—a man arrived with a group of women, and the receptionist abruptly ignored my check-in to attend to him instead, even though I had been there first. That moment set the tone for a stay defined by exclusion. Throughout the hotel, male guests were met with noticeably more enthusiasm. Waiters became animated and attentive when a man entered the restaurant, while I was treated with indifference. Throughout the hotel, male guests were met with exaggerated enthusiasm. Waiters became instantly more attentive and energetic in their presence, while I was met with indifference. One moment in particular stood out: I watched as a man handed what appeared to be a generous tip to a waiter—possibly a large sum. The response was almost theatrical—gushing attention and flattery followed, as if the man could do no wrong. It was hard not to conclude that men were being glorified for their perceived spending power, while women—especially those traveling alone—were treated as if they didn’t have the same financial worth or value as guests. What made this all the more surprising is that I’ve traveled extensively, including to countries that are traditionally male-oriented in culture, and I’ve never experienced this kind of disregard. This treatment was not only unexpected—it was jarring and deeply disappointing. The atmosphere among staff didn’t help. Many appeared tense or uneasy, as if working under pressure. There was little warmth or cohesion. Despite a “Do Not Disturb” sign on my door, housekeeping repeatedly knocked, and the cleaner smoked just outside my window, filling the room with cigarette smoke—despite a no-smoking sign inside. To give credit where it’s due: the views are stunning, the amenities are fine, and the food is of high quality (albeit expensive). I also appreciated the hotel’s initiative against food waste. But none of these positives could make up for the sense of being unwelcome and undervalued. Adrina may present itself as a luxury destination, but it does not offer the inclusivity or respect one should be able to expect—especially as a solo female guest.

The room was beautiful, sparkling clean with a stunning view. The service was very average for a 4* hotel. Either the personnel was tired in September, poorly paid, overworked or all the above. Management need to up their game; if you want to be considered a 4* you need to provide an equivalent service, and at time, it felt poor. Reception personnel was great. Swimming pool is nice, and the private beach handy.

The staff, the views, the beds the rooms, the food, the cleanliness .. everything perfect as always ❤️ we’ve been coming here on and off for over 20 years and we have watched the resort & spa get built in that time… the treatments there were lovely too

One of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. Located in Panormos, a convenient base to explore the Island, Adrina beach is a little piece of luxury where not only is the scenery beautiful but so is the staff who go out of their way to assist! We stayed for ten nights and after eating in town twice, we decided to spend the rest of our evenings at the hotels seaview restaurant. The food, ambience and service were incredible and we were happy to just relax on site. I would definitely recommend this hotel and am already planning our visit for next year. First class service in a beautiful location. Well done Team Adrina!
