Absolutely beautiful small friendly family apartments in a very unspoilt location near to the beach. We have had the most amazing holiday and this accommodation comes highly recommended the rooms... read more are cleaned everyday and fresh towels. The family cannot be more welcoming and hospitable. If you need transport they will run you into Kamari collect you from the airport and organise transport to local restaurants. We will definitely be coming back❤️☀️✈️

  You definitely get what you pay for, the accommodation may be that little bit cheaper, but the overall cost ends up doubling due to location and eating. The rooms are... read more extremely basic & outdated and not what they look like on the pictures, it’s fine for a base for your stay.

PLUS SIDES - The owners are sweet and the free airport transfers are great, but their English is limited and it’s difficult to make conversation. The office is very small and not often occupied, despite saying their opening hours are long, which makes trying to get around and asking questions very difficult. Upon arrival, they give you bottles of water which is a lovely gesture seeing as you aren’t able to drink from the taps. The pool area is beautiful and there is a good amount of sun loungers, the only fault is that the hot tub is actually part of the pool (so is cold) and the button doesn’t work to turn it into a jacuzzi! The rooms are very clean and well stocked daily with toilet paper & clean towels and bedding.

TRANSPORT - you definitely need to hire a car unless you’re prepared to take 45 minutes minimum to walk to Kamari beach in the heat, or pay €10 each way for a cab. There’s only 40 taxis on the whole island, so actually managing to get a taxi is a mission in itself, on the off chance they actually answer the phone, when they hear you are not Greek, they hang up or tell you to call back in 5 minutes. You can get a bus from the main road, but that’s if it turns up at all - you will ask to go into Kamari, they say yes yes and shove you on, but you have to go to Thira (on the opposite side of the island) to get another bus back to Kamari.

EATING - Breakfast is not included, but you are able to pay €11 per head per day to get a basic continental, or you can eat a buffet breakfast at the resort down the road for €15 per head. There is no restaurant, only a mini mart up the road which the hotel owns, but with only a kettle in the room there is not really much option to cook for yourself.

NOISE - Being so close to the airport, you literally hear everything. There wasn’t a night that I managed to sleep before 2am due to planes at all hours of the night. You’re lucky if you’re a heavy sleeper. The resort is run by a big family and one of the nights, the small children belonging to the owner’s son were running around screaming until atleast 01:30, obviously this isn’t ideal or fair on guests. Word of advice, don’t be too friendly to the cats or dogs - even looking at them intises them into your room or gives them the impression they can sit outside scratching the window and squarking all night long.

On the day I checked out, I stayed around the pool area as I had a late night flight, and I spoke to 3 couples who had been made to wait as their rooms weren’t ready on time, 1 that booked a double room and had been put in a twin. Not a great impression to myself or newcomers.

Overall I had a fantastic time on the island and there’s plenty to do. Having come to Santorini for a wedding with a huge group of people, I saw lots of different accommodation, I definitely feel I had the worst deal, price and location wise, there’s lots more out there that turns out cheaper in the long run. Luckily, I spent most of our time at our friends accommodation - Casa Vitae Suites where I would definitely be staying if I ever returned to santorini!

  We had a one night stay at Louis Studios since we had to take an early flight the next day. The host communicated well before our stay to arrange a... read more transfer to and from the hotel. The studios were very clean and it is convenient that there is a mini market near by. Would definitely come back.
