The PortaDelMare is a superb small inn just a few feet up an alley off the main harbor in Hydra. The rooms are ample in size, nicely decorated with plenty of storage and good lighting. Ours had a kitchenette with basic utensils and table service as well as a coffee maker with a small supply of ground coffee and some tea. There is a lovely outdoor terrace with tables, umbrellas, a couple of exercise machines and a jacuzzi. This was great for bringing in some food we got at a bakery and enjoying it with a bottle of wine. The place is very quiet, even though it is just a short walk to all the action at the picturesque harbor. It looked like this was a fairly recent remodel of an old villa. The bath was clean and well designed, and the in-room wifi worked just fine for basic Internet, though bandwidth was too low to transmit picture files. The only possible drawback would be for travelers who have mobility issues. You have to climb up a lot of steps to get to the floor with the guest rooms. We thought it was a great value, although we came late in the season, so the rates were adjusted accordingly. I would definitely recommend it and would stay there again if I go to Hydra.
